Testing in a multi-cloud environment presents unique challenges. This presentation reviews some of these challenges and includes some examples of how they can be addressed
Serverless is all the rage these days, but how did we get here and why should businesses and developer care about serverless? In this talk, we will hear about Yan's journey from running on-prem servers to EC2, to containers, and finally to serverless. We will hear about the evolution of development practices and debunk some common misconceptions about serverless. We'll also get a glimpse of how we can build new kinds of businesses on top of serverless, and why FinDev might be an even bigger game changer for businesses than DevOps.

Virtual Replication Built for AWS - Session Sponsored by ZertoAmazon Web Services
Virtual Replication Built for AWS
Disaster recovery planning can be challenging as the hardware, software and second site requirements are expensive and take a significant amount of time to acquire, configure and maintain. A great use case for public clouds, like Amazon Web Services is for business continuity and disaster recovery (BC/DR).
In this session, we will discuss how you can use Zerto Virtual Replication in conjunction with AWS form a simple and powerful BC/DR solution that comes with a predictable, monthly cost.
We will discuss:
• Why should you consider public cloud
• How Zerto help you leverage it
• Meet BC/DR requirements fast
Adopting Java for the Serverless world at JUG HamburgVadym Kazulkin
Java is for many years one of the most popular programming languages, but it used to have hard times in the Serverless Community. Java is known for its high cold start times and high memory footprint. For both you have to pay to the cloud providers of your choice. That's why most developers tried to avoid using Java for such use cases. But the times change: Community and cloud providers improve things steadily for Java developers. In this talk we look at the features and possibilities AWS cloud provider offers for the Java developers and look the most popular Java frameworks, like Micronaut, Quarkus and Spring (Boot) and look how (AOT compiler and GraalVM native images play a huge role) they address Serverless challenges and enable Java for broad usage in the Serverless world.
This document discusses automating EC2 operations on AWS through auto backup, auto patching, and auto recovery. Auto backup uses AWS Backup to create AMIs of EC2 instances on a scheduled basis. Auto patching uses AWS Systems Manager Patch Manager to patch EC2 instances on a schedule. Auto recovery monitors CloudWatch alarms and metrics, and uses Lambda, SNS, and Run Command to restart processes or instances when issues are detected. The goal of automation is to make operations easier and allow time to be used for other tasks.
The document discusses how AWS can help with test and development environments by providing servers within minutes, simplifying management of multiple environments, and enabling faster experimentation. It presents AWS services like EC2, S3, VPC, and CloudFormation that can help set up flexible environments for development and testing in a cost-effective way and allow disposable resources to be created and destroyed as needed. Using AWS allows teams to focus on innovation rather than managing infrastructure.

In 2011, Thomas Thwaites spent 9 months and £1187.54 and built his own toaster.
In his own words, he described the toaster as a partial success because "for about five seconds, the toaster toasted, but then unfortunately, the elements kind of melted itself". He is right in the sense that his audacious attempt won him fame and attention, and his TED talk was viewed more than 1M times. But judging his creation on its own and it's an abject failure that was 300 time more expensive than a commercial toaster, took too long to build and was utterly unfit for purpose.
As a business that is competing in an increasingly competitive world enabled by advancements in technology, the questions we should be asking ourselves are: "what are the business value, cost and risk in building our own infrastructure vs using a managed service?". In this talk, let's take an objective look at the ongoing debate of containers vs serverless and look at the arguments of control vs responsibility, vendor lock-in and more!
This AWS CloudFormation tutorial shall teach you how to use AWS CloudFormation and why it is used. Towards the end, we will be learning how to create a template using a JSON script and also create a stack using the sample templates. Below are the topics covered in this tutorial:

AWS has taken over the responsibilities of patching the OS and securing the underlying physical infrastructure that runs your serverless application, so what’s left for you to secure? Quite a bit it turns out.
The OWASP top 10 is as relevant to you as ever; DOS attacks are still a threat even if you can probably brute force your way through it as AWS auto-scales Lambda functions automatically; and did you know attackers can easily steal your AWS credentials via your application dependencies?
In addition to the traditional threats, serverless applications have more granular deployment units and therefore there are more things to configure and secure, and the tools and practices are still catching up with this fast changing world.

This document provides an overview of cloud computing and testing in the cloud. It discusses key aspects of cloud computing including pay-per-use models, virtual server pools, and various cloud deployment models. It then covers cloud service level agreements and their technical and commercial terms. The document outlines different strategies for testing in the cloud including automation, functional testing, and monitoring. It also discusses challenges like security and reliability and how defects are tracked. Overall the document is providing guidance on testing applications and infrastructure deployed in cloud environments.
Cloud testing refers to testing resources such as hardware and software that are available on demand in the cloud. There are various types of cloud-based testing including testing of the entire cloud, within a cloud, across clouds, and SaaS testing in the cloud. Functional testing ensures the cloud application provides paid-for services, while load, performance, security, and compatibility testing evaluate how the application functions under stress conditions and with different browsers and platforms. Challenges in cloud testing include security, performance unpredictability, lack of control over configurations, and difficulty replicating customer environments for integration testing.
This document discusses cloud-based testing. It defines cloud computing and the different cloud service models: SaaS, PaaS, and IaaS. Cloud-based testing uses cloud technologies and infrastructure to simulate real-world user traffic. Benefits of cloud testing include easier access to testing environments, easier deployment of test systems and applications, easier management, reduced costs, and scalability. Types of testing in the cloud include functional, non-functional, and load testing. Cloud testing provides increased availability, security, performance, and disaster recovery compared to conventional software testing. Most organizations are adopting cloud testing due to its flexibility, scalability, and reduced costs.
Cloud Testing: The Future of software TestingBugRaptors
Cloud testing is a form of software testing where applications control cloud computing environments. It overcomes limitations of traditional testing like performance issues and high costs. Cloud testing is more cost effective for organizations and provides benefits like reduced costs, faster time-to-market, and accessibility. While moving to cloud testing provides opportunities, it also introduces new challenges around sensitive data, business impacts, and differing needs of large vs small enterprises.
Cloud testing refers to testing applications and services that are hosted in cloud environments. There are three types of clouds: private, public, and hybrid. Cloud testing provides benefits like reduced costs since resources are accessed on-demand. It involves testing applications deployed in clouds, testing the cloud infrastructure itself, and testing across multiple cloud environments. Key challenges of cloud testing include security, lack of standards, infrastructure limitations, and improper usage increasing costs. Existing research on cloud testing and software testing as a service is limited but focuses on test modeling, criteria for cloud applications, and commercial cloud testing tools and services.
This document discusses cloud testing vs testing in the cloud. Cloud testing refers to testing applications deployed in the cloud, while testing in the cloud means testing any application using cloud infrastructure. It describes Software as a Service (SaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), and Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) models and how they impact testing. Key considerations for moving to the cloud include outage history, defining test platforms, and guidelines for public/private clouds. TestingWhiz is presented as a demo of test automation in the cloud.
Cloud computing has today become one of those “big bangs” in the industry. Most organizations are now leaning to adopting the cloud because of its flexibility, scalability and reduced costs. This session highlights the cloud testing different concepts in detail
The document discusses two papers on software testing in cloud computing. The first paper presents an overview of cloud testing, including pros like cost savings and cons like security issues. It also provides a generalized cloud testing procedure. The second paper identifies research issues for software testing in the cloud, such as application testing challenges, management of testers, and legal/financial concerns.

Cloud testing: challenges and opportunities, TaaS, Integration TestingDr Ganesh Iyer
The document discusses test challenges and methodologies for cloud computing. It outlines various dimensions that need to be tested for cloud platforms and applications, including elasticity, security, performance, multi-tenancy, and integration. Testing in the cloud provides advantages over traditional testing such as improved scalability, asset utilization, and reduced costs and environmental impact. Testing as a service (TaaS) is also discussed as a shared services delivery model for software testing on demand.
The document provides an introduction to cloud computing, defining key concepts such as cloud, cloud computing, deployment models, and service models. It explains that cloud computing allows users to access applications and store data over the internet rather than locally on a device. The main deployment models are public, private, community, and hybrid clouds, while the main service models are Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), and Software as a Service (SaaS). IaaS provides fundamental computing resources, PaaS provides development platforms, and SaaS provides software applications to users. The document discusses advantages such as lower costs and universal access, and disadvantages including internet dependence and potential security issues.
This document discusses automated scaling of JavaEE microservice stacks. It begins by introducing the speaker and their experience with autoscaling technologies. It then explains that while simple applications can be easily scaled by increasing container replicas, scaling complex JavaEE applications requires more work. The document outlines three key aspects needed for scalable applications: using lightweight application servers adapted for containers; decomposing monolithic applications into independently scalable microservices; and using orchestration software to automate provisioning, health checks, metrics collection, and scaling. It provides examples of scaling strategies for different application components like message queues and databases. It also discusses common issues like ensuring new instances are properly registered for events and services. The document emphasizes that proper configuration of autoscaling triggers

zkStudyClub - LatticeFold: A Lattice-based Folding Scheme and its Application...Alex Pruden
Folding is a recent technique for building efficient recursive SNARKs. Several elegant folding protocols have been proposed, such as Nova, Supernova, Hypernova, Protostar, and others. However, all of them rely on an additively homomorphic commitment scheme based on discrete log, and are therefore not post-quantum secure. In this work we present LatticeFold, the first lattice-based folding protocol based on the Module SIS problem. This folding protocol naturally leads to an efficient recursive lattice-based SNARK and an efficient PCD scheme. LatticeFold supports folding low-degree relations, such as R1CS, as well as high-degree relations, such as CCS. The key challenge is to construct a secure folding protocol that works with the Ajtai commitment scheme. The difficulty, is ensuring that extracted witnesses are low norm through many rounds of folding. We present a novel technique using the sumcheck protocol to ensure that extracted witnesses are always low norm no matter how many rounds of folding are used. Our evaluation of the final proof system suggests that it is as performant as Hypernova, while providing post-quantum security.

Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity serverAntonios Katsarakis
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).
