From the moment you open up a website in your browser multiple virtual machines (VMs) are at work. The server generating the website might use Java, your browser executes JavaScript and maybe there is some Flash content running — with everything being executed in a VM.
Virtual machines became increasingly important and popular after Google’s introduction of V8. We expect our code to run fast but let’s step back for a second and see how these complicated pieces of software work. With a better understanding of how your daily ActionScript or JavaScript code is being executed you might start coding a little different.
Join Joa and dive deep into the the world of virtual machines. Learn about different garbage collection strategies and understand why those beasts behave the way they do.
Various virtualization technologies are present at the market for more than a decade, but they were typically occupying cloud platforms. Recently, virtualization began spreading over embedded platforms after ARM presented Virtualization Extension for its recent processors. Various peripherals (like disks and network) had been easily virtualized for usage by several operating systems at once, but things like Graphical Processing Units (GPU) remain to be one of the most intricate parts to be adapted, with very few vendors who actually managed to do it.
Sergiy Kibrik (Software Engineer, GlobalLogic) explain how it was done at GlobalLogic. This presentation was delivered at GlobalLogic Embedded TechTalk Kyiv on July 22, 2015.
An unique module combining various previous modules you have learnt by combing Linux administration, Hardware knowledge, Linux as OS, C/Computer programming areas. This is a complete module on Embedded OS, as of now no books are written on this with such practical aspects. Here is a consolidated material to get real hands-on perspective about building custom Embedded Linux distribution in ARM.

David Davis, Senior Embedded Software Engineer, and John Withers, Automation and Systems Engineer, both of BDTI, present the “TensorFlow Lite for Microcontrollers (TFLM): Recent Developments” tutorial at the May 2022 Embedded Vision Summit.
TensorFlow Lite Micro (TFLM) is a generic inference framework designed to run TensorFlow models on digital signal processors (DSPs), microcontrollers and other embedded targets with small memory footprints and very low power usage. TFLM aims to be easily portable to various embedded targets from those running an RTOS to bare-metal code. TFLM leverages the model optimization tools from the TensorFlow ecosystem and has additional embedded-specific optimizations to reduce the memory footprint. TFLM also integrates with a number of community contributed optimized hardware-specific kernel implementations.
In this talk, Davis and Withers review collaboration between BDTI and Google over the last year, including porting nearly two dozen operators from TensorFlow Lite to TFLM, creation of a separate Arduino examples repository, improved testing and documentation of both Arduino and Colab training examples and transitioning TFLM’s open-source CI framework to use GitHub Actions.
Everything You Need To Know About Persistent Storage in KubernetesThe {code} Team
Applications need data. Containers remain ephemeral but we don't want our data to disappear. So how does it work with Kubernetes?
This session will examine the individual pieces required for creating persistent applications in Kubernetes. You will learn about in-tree and out-of-tree storage drivers, PersistentVolumes (PV), PersistentVolumeClaims (PVC), Dyanamic Provisioning, how to use all of these in your Deployments and StatefulSets, high availability, and what happens to the volumes when you delete objects. Get ramped up on everything you need to know about using persistent storage in Kubernetes

Kubernetes dealing with storage and persistenceJanakiram MSV
Storage is a critical part of running containers, and Kubernetes offers some powerful primitives for managing it. This webinar discusses various strategies for adding persistence to the containerised workloads.
Virtualization with KVM (Kernel-based Virtual Machine)Novell
As a technical preview, SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 contains KVM, which is the next-generation virtualization software delivered with the Linux kernel. In this technical session we will demonstrate how to set up SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 for KVM, install some virtual machines and deal with different storage and networking setups.
To demonstrate live migration we will also show a distributed replicated block device (DRBD) setup and a setup based on iSCSI and OCFS2, which are included in SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 and SUSE Linux Enterprise 11 High Availability Extension.
OpenShift is Red Hat's Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) that lets developers quickly develop, host, and scale Docker container-based applications. OpenShift enables a uniform and standardised approach to container management across all hosting options including AWS/EC2 and other private/public cloud and on/off-premise variants. At this session, you will learn how Red Hat's enterprise clients are using OpenShift to enable their digital transformation initiatives. Examples will cover how realising a hybrid cloud strategy can simplify and reduce the risk of migrating and transitioning application workloads to containers in the cloud.

Persistent Storage with Containers with Kubernetes & OpenShiftRed Hat Events
Manually configuring mounts for containers to various network storage platforms and services is tedious and time consuming. OpenShift and Kubernetes provides a rich library of volume plugins that allow authors of containerized applications (Pods) to declaratively specify what the storage requirements for the containers are so that OpenShift can dynamically provision and allocate the storage assets for the specified containers. As the author of the Kubernetes Persistent Volume specification, I will provide an overview of how Persistent Volume plugins work in OpenShift, demo block storage and file storage volume plugins and close with the Red Hat storage roadmap.

Linux has become integral part of Embedded systems. This three part presentation gives deeper perspective of Linux from system programming perspective. Stating with basics of Linux it goes on till advanced aspects like thread and IPC programming.
The second part of Linux Internals covers system calls, process subsystem and inter process communication mechanisms. Understanding these services provided by Linux are essential for embedded systems engineer.
Virtual machines are generally considered secure. At least, secure enough to power highly multi-tenant, large-scale public clouds, where a single physical machine can host a large number of virtual instances belonging to different customers. Containers have many advantages over virtual machines: they boot faster, have less performance overhead, and use less resources. However, those advantages also stem from the fact that containers share the kernel of their host, instead of abstracting a new independent environment. This sharing has significant security implications, as kernel exploits can now lead to host-wide escalations.
We will show techniques to harden Linux Containers; including kernel capabilities, mandatory access control, hardened kernels, user namespaces, and more, and discuss the remaining attack surface.
There is a surge in number of sensors / devices that are getting connected under the umbrella of Internet-Of-Things (IoT). These devices need to be integrated into the Android system and accessed via applications, which is covered in the course.

The Future of Continuous Software Updates Is HereIdo Green
DevOps and “Liquid Software” release practices are rapidly becoming the standard. But, as software shapes digital transformation, DevOps teams are feeling challenged to manage their growing influence on corporations’ success or failure.
In this talk, Ido Green looks into the growing pains that most enterprises (many of them JFrog customers) face when adopting and consolidating DevOps at scale, and how these challenges are being mitigated with end-to-end platform solutions. We’ll wrap up with some DevOps best practices - from the trenches - that will help you address emerging trends that your bosses’ bosses really care about.
Open Source & DevOps Market trends - Open Core SummitIdo Green
Open Source developers are pushing the world of technology forward. At JFrog, from day one, we worked closely with developers (we’re developers too!) to make sure we solved actual problems.
We’re not a developer-first company.
We’re a developer company.
But this means that, like you, we’ve had plenty of “learning moments.” In this talk, we’ll share some key insights so other project owners can avoid falling into the same holes we’ve fallen into. Further, we’ll share some interesting statistics about the DevOps market that will help you gain insight into your own domain, and how you can practically address larger market movements that the bosses’ bosses’ bosses are really caring about.
“If we have data, let’s look at data. If all we have are opinions, let’s go with mine.”
This talk is going to be based on data and the real world.
No theoretical stories just data and action items on how to make your company better/faster/more secure in shipping software.

In this talk, Ido Green will describe the key components of actions on Google. He will show you how to easily build your first assistant app using tools such as Dialogflow, and explore voice user interface (VUI) best practices in order to design compelling conversational experiences that delight users.
We are all experts at human-to-human conversation. But conversing only seems easy because it’s familiar, you’ve been doing it since you were born.
The key to building a good voice interface is to not fall into the trap of simply converting a GUI into a VUI.
In these slides we will cover the best practices to design our Action on Google (and any other Voice UI).
At Google, we believe the future is AI first, and we’re investing heavily in the fields of machine learning, speech recognition and language understanding. These technologies come together in the Google Assistant, which allows you to have a conversation with Google that helps you get things done.
Developers can build apps for the Google Assistant using Actions on Google and in these slides we will show you how you can do it and why you wish to be in this new platform.
The Google Assistant - Macro View (October 2017)Ido Green
The past few years, the buzz about conversational experiences and digital assistants has increased dramatically. According to a recently issued report by eMarketer, 87% of B2C marketers in the US believe that chatbots and digital assistants will play a significant role in marketing before 2021.
In these slides we will cover the Google Assistant and learn why you wish to build an action for it.
At Google, we believe the future is AI first.
We have been investing heavily in the areas of: Machine learning, Speech recognition & Language understanding.
These things come together in the Google Assistant. In these slides we will go over what is exciting about this new platform and how you can build you Assistant apps.
Which Allows you to have a conversation with Google, that helps you get things done.
Because of these investments in AI, the conversation can be completely natural.
Use your voice, ask in a natural way, and the Assistant helps you.
As you can see - it’s everywhere.
Building conversational experiences with Actions on GoogleIdo Green
The Google Assistant is Google’s conversational software for helping you get things done in your world. It is the culmination of all of Google’s research in AI, ML, NLP, etc.
It runs on various devices, including the Google Home which launched in 2017, as well as many Android and iOS devices. Actions on Google is the third-party platform for the Google Assistant, allowing you, the developer. to manage a conversation between your service and the user.
In these slides you will see how/why you can leverage this new platform for your service.

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.
3. App Engine: Memcache Basics
Topics We Cover in This Lesson
● What is Memcache?
● Why do we need Memcache?
● How to Use Memcache?
● Caveats And Solutions
5. What is Memcache?
What is Memcache?
● Memcache is an in-memory Key-Value Pairs data store
○ Put a value with a key
○ Get a value with a key
value
key
"user001" : "John Doe"
"user002" : "Larry Page"
● key or value can be anything that is serializable
● Memcache is a shared service accessed via App Engine APIs.
6. What Is Memcache
What Do We Use Memcache For?
●
●
●
Caching In Front of Datastore
○ Cache entities for low-latency reads
○ Integrated into most ORM frameworks (ndb, Obectify ..)
Caching for Read heavy operations
○ User authentication token and session data
○ APIs call or other computation results
Semi-durable Shared state Cross App Instances
○ Sessions
○ Counters / Metrics
○ Application Configurations
11. How to Use Memcache
Memcache APIs
● Java
○ JCache APIs
○ GAE Low-Level Memcache APIs
○ Objectify for Datastore
● Python
○ google.appengine.api.memcache module
○ ndb for Datastore
12. How to Use Memcache
General Memcache Usage Pattern
Coordinate data read with Datastore:
● Check if Memcache value exists
○ if it does, display/use cached value directly; otherwise
○ fetch the value from Datastore and write the value to
Memcache
Coordinate data write with Datastore:
● Update Memcache value
○ to handle race condition, leverage put if
untouched/compare and set to detect race conditions
● Write the value to Datastore
○ optionally, leverage the task queue for background writes
13. How to Use Memcache
Using GAE Client Library (Java)
import com.google.appengine.api.memcache;
...
MemcacheService syncCache = MemcacheServiceFactory.
getMemcacheService();
// Act on error as cache miss
syncCache.setErrorHandler(ErrorHandlers.
getConsistentLogAndContinue(Level.INFO));
value = (byte[]) syncCache.get(key); // read from cache
if (value == null) {
value = getDataFromDb(key); // fetch value from datastore
syncCache.put(key, value); // write to cache
// (key and value must be
serializable)
}
...
14. How to Use Memcache
Using GAE Client Library (Python)
from google.appengine.api import memcache
...
value = memcache.get(key)
if value is None:
value = get_value_from_db(key)
if not memcache.add(key, value):
logging.error('Memcache add failed.')
...
15. How to Use Memcache
Batch Operations
● getAll(), putAll(), deleteAll()
A single read or write operation for multiple memcache
entries
Note
● Further improve Memcache performance by reducing network traffics
● Batch size < 32 MB
16. How to Use Memcache
Atomic Operations
● increment(key, delta), incrementAll(...),
Provide atomic increment of numeric value(s)
● getIdentifiable(), putIfUntouched() in Java, or cas() in Python
A mechanism to update a value consistently by concurrent requests
Note
●
Helps managing memcache data consistency in
multi-instances/concurrent environment
17. How to Use Memcache
Some Other Features
● Asynchronous calls
Provides a mechanism to make a non-blocking call for memcache
operations
● Namespace
Logically separates data layers for different application purposes (like
multi tenancy) across many GAE services such as Datastore,
Memcache, Task Queue etc...
19. Caveats And Solutions
Caveat: Memcache Is Volatile
Entries can be evicted anytime by various reasons:
●
●
●
entry reaches expiration
entry is evicted because memcache memory is full
memcache server fails
Tip
●
It's important to handle cache-miss gracefully!
●
Implements write-through logic by backing
memcache with datastore in your application!
○ Psst... Objectify and ndb do it for you.
20. Caveats And Solutions
Caveat: Memcache Is Not Transactional
Instance 1 reads $100
$100
$100
Instance 2 reads $100
$100
$100
Instance 2 deducts $20
$80
$80
Instance 1 deducts $30
$70
$70
Tip
Using getIdentifiable() and putIfUntouched(...)
for optimistic locking
21. Caveats And Solutions
Caveat: Memcache Is A Limited Resource
My Application Does NOT Have Enough Memcache!
Tips
●
Only need to cache what is useful and necessary!
●
Your application should function without memcache!
●
Dedicated Memcache
22. Caveats And Solutions
Dedicated Memcache
Enabling dedicated memcache from the admin console
1. Provides fixed cache capacity that is exclusive to your application
2. Billed by the GB per hour of cache size. Charged in 15 minute
increments
3. Gives you additional control over cache size. More predictable
performance
Note: Whether shared or dedicated, Memcache is not a durable storage.
Plan for your application to function without Memcache
23. Discussion And Questions
Key Takeaways
1. Memcache is supported natively in GAE. Take advantage of it to
improve your GAE application performance.
2. Memcache supports open standard JCache API. Many advanced
features are available by GAE Memcache APIs to suit your
application's need i.e. Batch, Atomic, Asynchronous operations
3. Seamless integration with GAE Datastore in a few libraries like
Python ndb and Java Objectify.
4. Read-frequently and write-rarely data is most suitable in combining
with Memcache
5. Handle Memcache's volatility in your application
6. Use Memcache wisely, it is not an unlimited resource
