Building clouds with apache cloudstack apache roadshow 2018ShapeBlue
Talk given at Apache Roadshow, FOSS Backstage, Berlin, June 2018
Apache CloudStack is open source software designed to deploy and manage large networks of virtual machines, as a highly available, highly scalable Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) cloud computing platform. This talk will give an introduction to the technology, its history and its architecture. It will look common use-cases (and some real production deployments) that are seen across both public and private cloud infrastructures and where CloudStack can be completed by other open source technologies.
The talk will also compare and contrast Apache Cloudstack with other IaaS platforms and why he thinks that the technology, combined with the Apache governance model will see CloudStack become the de-facto open source cloud platform. He will run a live demo of the software and talk about ways that people can get involved in the Apache CloudStack project.
AWS Direct Connect provides low latency and high performance connectivity to the AWS cloud by allowing the provision of physical fiber from the customer’s location or data center into AWS Direct Connect points of presence. This session covers design considerations around AWS Direct Connect solutions. We will discuss how to design and configure physical and logical redundancy using both physically redundant fibers and logical VPN connectivity, and includes a live demo showing both the configuration and the failure of a doubly redundant connectivity solution. This session is for network engineers/architects, technical professionals, and infrastructure managers who have a working knowledge of Amazon VPC, Amazon EC2, general networking, and routing protocols.

(NET409) How Twilio Migrated Its Services from EC2-Classic to EC2-VPCAmazon Web Services
"Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (Amazon VPC) has many obvious benefits. For example, you can use Amazon VPC to define a virtual network in your own logically isolated area within the AWS cloud, and launch your EC2 instances into a VPC. But how can you take advantage of the EC2-VPC platform if your services and infrastructure are already deployed in the EC2-Classic platform? In this deep-dive session, learn how to safely and reliably migrate from EC2-Classic to EC2-VPC with zero downtime. We show you how Twilio approached the problem of a VPC migration, or what we internally called the “Moving Datacenters Project.” We discuss the technologies and tools (both internal and external) we used to complete the migration, the infrastructure we built along the way, and the lessons we learned.

Ever wished you had a list of cheat codes to unleash the full power of AWS Lambda for your production workload? Come learn how to build a robust, scalable, and highly available serverless application using AWS Lambda. In this session, we discuss hacks and tricks for maximizing your AWS Lambda performance, such as leveraging customer reuse, using the 500 MB scratch space and local cache, creating custom metrics for managing operations, aligning upstream and downstream services to scale along with Lambda, and many other workarounds and optimizations across your entire function lifecycle.
You also learn how Hearst converted its real-time clickstream analytics data pipeline from a server-based model to a serverless one. The infrastructure of the data pipeline relied on Amazon EC2 instances and cron jobs to shepherd data through the process. In 2016, Hearst converted its data pipeline architecture to a serverless process that relies on event triggers and the power of AWS Lambda. By moving from a time-based process to a trigger-based process, Hearst improved its pipeline latency times by 50%.

AWS re:Invent 2016: Another Day, Another Billion Packets (NET401)Amazon Web Services
In this session, we walk through the Amazon VPC network presentation and describe the problems we were trying to solve when we created it. Next, we walk through how these problems are traditionally solved, and why those solutions are not scalable, inexpensive, or secure enough for AWS. Finally, we provide an overview of the solution that we've implemented and discuss some of the unique mechanisms that we use to ensure customer isolation, get packets into and out of the network, and support new features like VPC endpoints.
"Microservices" is one of the hottest buzzwords and, as usual, everyone wants them, but few know how to build them. In this talk we will offer our interpretation of microservice architecture, and show how we are implementing these ideas: using Scala, Akka, sbt and Docker, we modularized Akka applications, Spark jobs and Play servers.
In the talk we will discuss design trade-offs and challenges that we faced in the process, and how we have overcome them. The focus is not on particular features of Scala language or a library, but on building modern applications using the Typesafe stack and other open-source tools.
An overview of the Netflix Security Monkey Open Source tool. The presentation provides some background information, architectural overview, and screenshots showing the tool in action.

From One to Many: Evolving VPC Design (ARC401) | AWS re:Invent 2013Amazon Web Services
As more customers adopt Amazon Virtual Private Cloud architectures, the features and flexibility of the service are squaring off against increasingly complex design requirements. This session follows the evolution of a single regional VPC into a multi-VPC, multi-region design with diverse connectivity into on-premises systems and infrastructure. Along the way, we investigate creative customer solutions for scaling and securing outbound VPC traffic, managing multi-tenant VPCs, conducting VPC-to-VPC traffic, extending corporate federation and name services into VPC, running multiple hybrid environments over AWS Direct Connect, and integrating corporate multiprotocol label switching (MPLS) clouds into multi-region VPCs.

(SDD302) A Tale of One Thousand Instances - Migrating from Amazon EC2-Classic...Amazon Web Services
In this session, you learn why Twilio chose to migrate from Amazon EC2-Classic to VPC and how they leveraged features available only in VPC, specifically:
- AWS CloudHSM: Build out a secure key encryption or role-based access control for internal use; also used to securely store and encrypt data for external customers.- Elastic Network Interface (ENI): Allows multiple Elastic IPs per instance and the ability to move network interface between instances.- Hardware Virtual Machine (HVM) instances w/SRV-IO: New hardware virtualized instances that allow line-level performance of network interfaces for up to 10g Ethernet speeds. Secure data-in-transit by default, which ensures all machines communicate via a software-defined network and work in the same manner as VLAN tagging for compliance reasons. Sponsored by Twilio.
Software Defined Networking is seeing a lot of momentum these days. With server virtualization solving the virtual machines problem, and large scale object storage solving the distributed storage challenge, SDN is seen as key in virtual networking.
In this talk we don't try to define SDN but rather dive straight into what in our opinion is the core enabled of SDN: the virtual switch OVS.
OVS can help manage VLAN for guest network isolation, it can re-route any traffic at L2-L4 by keeping forwarding tables controlled by a remote controller (Openfow controller). We show these few OVS capabilities and highlight how they are used in CloudStack and Xen.

Docker and Cloud - Enables for DevOps - by ACA-ITStijn Wijndaele
DevOps is gericht op het tot stand brengen van een cultuur binnen organisaties waardoor het ontwikkelen, valideren en releasen van software sneller, meer betrouwbaar en frequenter kan verlopen. Om dit te realiseren staan het automatiseren van het 'software delivery process' en de bijhorende infrastructurele veranderingen centraal. Door de opkomst van 'Microservice Architecture' neemt het belang hiervan nog verder toe.
Sprekers: Stijn Van den Enden & Stijn Wijndaele (ACA IT-Solutions) DevOps is gericht op het tot stand brengen van een cultuur binnen organisaties waardoor het ontwikkelen, valideren en releasen van software sneller, meer betrouwbaar en frequenter kan verlopen. Om dit te realiseren staan het automatiseren van het 'software delivery process' en de bijhorende infrastructurele veranderingen centraal. Door de opkomst van 'Microservice Architecture' neemt het belang hiervan nog verder toe.
In deze avondconferentie werd, na een korte toelichting over DevOps, nagegaan wat Docker en de Cloud kunnen betekenen voor uw business, en hoe zij als enablers kunnen dienen voor het tot stand brengen van een DevOps-cultuur. Het container-landschap waarvan tools zoals Kubernetes, Docker Swarm, ...een belangrijk onderdeel vormen, wordt toegelicht en er wordt ingegaan op de wijze waarop deze tools aangewend kunnen worden om 'development' en 'operations' efficiënt te laten samenwerken.

"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.
Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms.

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.
Let's dive deeper into the world of ODC! Ricardo Alves (OutSystems) will join us to tell all about the new Data Fabric. After that, Sezen de Bruijn (OutSystems) will get into the details on how to best design a sturdy architecture within ODC.

I want to scale my Nova, like a
lot!
We give you Cells!!!!
7. Nova
The DB access is a pain on Nova.
We give you No-DB!!!!
• upgrades - without this, you need to take down all
compute services (potentially 1000s) to do a db schema
sync
• security - if you break out of the VM, you ownz the cloud
right now because you have full DB access and access to
the message queue
• scalability - limit the amount of agents which need to hit
the DB; reduce the connections, but also potentially reduce
the number of queries
8. Nova
Hey let me track all that stuff.
We give you Instance Action tracking
Nova has been updated to keep track of all actions performed on
an instance. There is an API extension for accessing this
information. Viewing the list of instance actions provides deeper
insight into the history of an instance. It also provides much
better error reporting for users and administrators.

We give you PKI
tokens!!!!
More secure and more
efficient.
15. Keystone
How do I plug Keystone to my auth
Server?
Use REMOTE_USER and
Apache, it will do just that.
16. Keystone
I WANT a new API.
Sure here is the v3 API
Former "Service" and "Admin" APIs (including CRUD operations previously defined
in the v2 OS-KSADM extension) are consolidated into a single core API
"Tenants" are now known as "projects"
"Groups": a container representing a collection of users
"Domains": a high-level container for projects, users and groups
"Policies": a centralized repository for policy engine rule sets
"Credentials": generic credential storage per user (e.g. EC2, PKI, SSH, etc.)
"Trusts": Project-specific role delegation between users, with optional
impersonation
Roles can be granted at either the domain or project level
User, group and project names only have to be unique within their owning domain
Retrieving your list of projects (previously GET /tenants) is now explicitly based on
your user ID: GET /users/{user_id}/projects
Tokens explicitly represent user+project or user+domain pairs
Partial updates are performed using the HTTP PATCH method
Token ID values no longer appear in URLs
