AWS Cloud Center Excellence Quick Start Prescriptive GuidanceTom Laszewski
This presentation is a practical playbook for defining, establishing, and implementing a Cloud Enablement Engine (CEE). It collates and summarizes the lessons learned and anti-patterns gathered from the CEE journeys successfully navigated at Amazon and other large enterprise companies. A lot has been written about the need to establish a CEE, the benefits of moving to a productization mindset, and the business value of tribes, guilds, and two-pizza teams. However, larger organizations are still struggling with a CEE 30-60-90 day plan, and the essential components of the CEE during its first six months in existence.
The prescriptive guidance in this presentation provides pragmatic and tactical advice for establishing a Cloud Enablement Engine (CEE) – also referred to as a Cloud Center of Excellence (CCoE) or Cloud Enablement Team. This presentation serves as a step-by-step guide for the initial setup activities, and the top ten best practices that have been extrapolated from working across a large number of customers. What not to do is as important as what to do. Therefore, the top ten anti-patterns are discussed.
A key focus of the CEE is transforming the IT organization from an on-premise operating model to a Cloud Operating Model (COM). The transformation to COM and the charter of a CEE are highly correlated and interconnected. During the nascent stage of the CEE, the focus of the CEE will be on the infrastructure components of a COM. This includes the operations, security & control, platform architecture & governance, and infrastructure provisioning & configuration management functions. AWS understands that enterprise (on-premises) operating models are based on ITIL. Therefore, the cloud transformation from an on-premises operating model to a COM will include mapping ITIL to a cloud, agile, and DevOps based capabilities and processes. Fortunately, ITIL 4.0 embraces DevOps, cloud, and agile.

Molte organizzazioni sfruttano i vantaggi del cloud migrando i propri carichi di lavoro Oracle e assicurandosi notevoli vantaggi in termini di agilità ed efficienza dei costi.
La migrazione di questi carichi di lavoro, può creare complessità durante la modernizzazione e il refactoring delle applicazioni e a questo si possono aggiungere rischi di prestazione che possono essere introdotti quando si spostano le applicazioni dai data center locali.
Crea la tua prima serverless ledger-based app con QLDB e NodeJSAmazon Web Services
Molte aziende oggi, costruiscono applicazioni con funzionalità di tipo ledger ad esempio per verificare lo storico di accrediti o addebiti nelle transazioni bancarie o ancora per tenere traccia del flusso supply chain dei propri prodotti.
Alla base di queste soluzioni ci sono i database ledger che permettono di avere un log delle transazioni trasparente, immutabile e crittograficamente verificabile, ma sono strumenti complessi e onerosi da gestire.
Amazon QLDB elimina la necessità di costruire sistemi personalizzati e complessi fornendo un database ledger serverless completamente gestito.
In questa sessione scopriremo come realizzare un'applicazione serverless completa che utilizzi le funzionalità di QLDB.
Con l’ascesa delle architetture di microservizi e delle ricche applicazioni mobili e Web, le API sono più importanti che mai per offrire agli utenti finali una user experience eccezionale. In questa sessione impareremo come affrontare le moderne sfide di progettazione delle API con GraphQL, un linguaggio di query API open source utilizzato da Facebook, Amazon e altro e come utilizzare AWS AppSync, un servizio GraphQL serverless gestito su AWS. Approfondiremo diversi scenari, comprendendo come AppSync può aiutare a risolvere questi casi d’uso creando API moderne con funzionalità di aggiornamento dati in tempo reale e offline.
Inoltre, impareremo come Sky Italia utilizza AWS AppSync per fornire aggiornamenti sportivi in tempo reale agli utenti del proprio portale web.
Database Oracle e VMware Cloud™ on AWS: i miti da sfatareAmazon Web Services
Molte organizzazioni sfruttano i vantaggi del cloud migrando i propri carichi di lavoro Oracle e assicurandosi notevoli vantaggi in termini di agilità ed efficienza dei costi.
La migrazione di questi carichi di lavoro, può creare complessità durante la modernizzazione e il refactoring delle applicazioni e a questo si possono aggiungere rischi di prestazione che possono essere introdotti quando si spostano le applicazioni dai data center locali.
In queste slide, gli esperti AWS e VMware presentano semplici e pratici accorgimenti per facilitare e semplificare la migrazione dei carichi di lavoro Oracle accelerando la trasformazione verso il cloud, approfondiranno l’architettura e dimostreranno come sfruttare a pieno le potenzialità di VMware Cloud ™ on AWS.

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.

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.

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.
"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.

49. Migration process: collect information, assess the
portfolio and decide on migration
• Collect information on the applications
• Assess applications against migration criteria
• Decide which applications should be migrated, when and how (as well
as the data required by the applications)
Assessment is part of the
practice of Application
Portfolio Management.
50. Essential attributes for the migration analysis (1 / 3 )
Section Attribute Reason
General Information Type of license Software licenses for applications may have to be moved to the cloud. AWS
supports licensing options for major COTS applications.
Lifecycle stage Is the application due for retirement or replacement? If so, it may not need to
be migrated.
Business value Cost reduction Does the application support efficiency and cost reduction targets? If so, it
should be given special attention in the migration.
Impact on revenue
and market share
Does the application support revenue generation and market share? If so, it
should be given special attention in the migration.
Usage The number of users and how often they use the application affects its
importance. Applications used only by a few users or infrequently may not
justify enhancement effort in the migration.
SLAs SLA targets and past data will provide indications on reliability and
supportability on premises. High SLA applications will need to be migrated to
suitable architectures on the cloud and may need more effort.
51. Essential attributes for the migration analysis (2 / 3)
Section Attribute Reason
Financials Enhancement cost A high cost of enhancing an application may justify migrating it to AWS and
enhancing using the Embrace or Optimise strategies.
Replacement cost A low cost of replacing an application may justify replacing it so it does not
need to be migrated.
Licensing costs A high cost of software licensing may justify considering lower cost options as
part of the migration to AWS from a cost benefit aspect.
Security, privacy and
compliance
Security of
applications and data
The security requirements need to be known so they can be catered for on
AWS through appropriate architecture and operational processes.
Data privacy The data privacy requirements need to be known so they can be catered for
on AWS through appropriate architecture and operational processes.
Obligations to store
data in specific
jurisdictions
Regulatory and other constraints need to be known and may disallow some
applications from moving to AWS.
52. Essential attributes for the migration analysis (3 / 3)
Section Attribute Reason
Dependencies Applications that this
application depends on
Dependencies between applications on-premises must be known. The
assessment of inter-dependent applications must take into account the
interfaces between them and how the interfaces should be implemented on
AWS. A hybrid arrangement is possible with parts of an application running
both on-premises and on AWS but this is more complex to implement.
Other applications that
depend on this
application
Risks Operational risks. Are there existing operational risks with the application? If so, it may be best
to defer migrating until they have been resolved.
Technical qualities (Varies by type of
application)
Are there any technical quality attributes listed in the paper that affect the
potential for migration?
Application
environment
CPU
Does the application run on the x86 family of CPUs supported by AWS? If
not, re-targeting will be needed, where feasible.
OS
Does the application run on the operating systems supported by AWS? If not,
re-targeting will be needed, where feasible.
53. Options for Migrating Applications to AWS
• Migrated without change (Forklift or ‘Lift-and-Shift’)
– Map on-premises technology services to AWS services
– Does not provide the full benefit of AWS but less effort is needed
• Migrated with some improvements (Embrace AWS)
– Full re-development is not justified but specific AWS services are used
– Provides more benefits with more effort
• Migrated by re-architecting and re-developing (Optimise for AWS)
– Re-architecting and re-developing is justified
– Can provide full benefits but needs the most effort
