OpenStack is open source software for building public and private clouds. It provides software for provisioning virtual machines (OpenStack Compute) and reliably storing objects (OpenStack Object Storage) on commodity hardware at massive scales. The software is distributed under an Apache 2.0 license and uses an open design process to produce a ubiquitous open source cloud platform that can meet the needs of all cloud providers regardless of size.
Very few trends in IT have generated as much buzz as cloud computing. This talk will cut through the hype and quickly clarify the ontology for cloud computing. The bulk of the conversation will focus on the open source software that can be used to build compute clouds (infrastructure-as-a-service) and the complimentary open source management tools that can be combined to automate the management of cloud computing environments. The discussion will appeal to anyone who has a good grasp of traditional data center infrastructure but is struggling with the benefits and migration path to a cloud computing environment. Systems administrators and IT generalists will leave the discussion with a general overview of the options at their disposal to effectively build and manage their own cloud computing environments using free and open source software.

Big data and mass analytical processing have gained a prime position over the past years in business and have touched almost all domains of society. According to the famous Gartner “3Vs” definition, big data deals with Volume, Velocity and Variety. It enables organizations to exploit information that was previously ignored because there was no reasonable way to process it. One talks about the big data revolution but underpinning this revolution is the capacity to process unstructured data such as written documents, images, audio and videos which make up more than 80 percent of available data today. The WebLab platform aims at building systems providing intelligence solutions from the processing of open source data. Such systems face three major challenges: • Managing large amounts of unstructured data, • Managing the data diversity with the appropriate combination of processing tools , • Allowing the most effective tools to be selected for each processing step. Like Big Data, WebLab addresses intelligence needs and deals with Volume, Variety and Velocity. Can we therefore say that Big Data and WebLab face the same challenges? In fact, it can be argued that Big Data and WebLab are complementary. How can we benefit, then, from the best of both worlds?
Provisioning the Cloud within XLCloud, Sylvain Bauza, BullOW2
XLcloud is a three-year long collaborative project funded by the French FSN (Fonds national pour la Société Numérique) programme, call Cloud n° 1, that was initially submitted under the name "Magellan". XLcloud strives to establish the demonstration of a High Performance Cloud Computing (HPCC) platform based on OpenStack that is designed to run a representative set of compute intensive workloads including more specifically interactive games, interactive simulations and 3D graphic applications. In this context, provisioning a full stack from baremetal nodes to running PaaS (Platform-as-a-Service) implies many challenges that XLCloud team has to deal with day-to-day. The goal of this talk is to discuss about the current state-of-art on how to deploy and configure Openstack, how these tools can help XLCloud to match its needs and the current status of the project by itself.
Emerginov - come back on the 1st year of the community, Morgan Richomme, Orange.OW2
The Emerginov project has been officially published under free license in OW2 end of November 2012. Since this date we worked on the construction of the community and kept on animating codecamps and hackathons in Europe and Africa. The concept that was initially designed for Africa has been adopted for co innovation tooling in Brittany through the project innov@lannion. The project has been also selected by the FING for the carrefour des possibles Bretagne and was one the key stone of the FP7 European project reviewed end of June 2013. The goal of the presentation is to summarize the different actions of the project since the last presentation and the ambition of the project.

Over the last several years, financial institutions have spent billions of dollars and resources securing a perimeter defense system consisting of intrusion detection, intrusion prevention, firewalls, user authentication, and other layers of security all built to secure their financial systems. Due to the exponential increase in internal and external information security incidents, these investments are necessary to protect an institution’s reputation and revenue. In addition, the federal government is using regulatory means to ensure the banks
take responsibility for potential losses.
Of equal or even greater threat, however, are the social aspects of the Internet that cannot
be controlled. For example, financial institutions need to be aware of the reputational risk that is inherent on the Internet. Each institution needs to do more than reactively protect its data; it must also proactively safeguard its reputation online, where references to its corporate name alone can number in the millions. An institution must also guard against infringements against its logo, its trademarks or other graphic representations. This risk, outside the firewall, is the other side of the coin.

OW2 Association Européenne aux racines grenobloises, transformer l'industrie ...OW2
Connaissez-vous OW2 ? Aventure commencée en 1999 à Grenoble sur la base d'un consortium industriel dédié au middleware open source, devenu association sans but lucratif d'échelle européenne en 2006 sous le nom d'OW2, nous agissons pour la diffusion du libre dans le monde professionnel depuis plus de 20 ans.
OW2 compte des adhérents de toute taille : 2.600 individuels en adhésion gratuite, et 30 institutionnels, de la TPE unipersonnelle à Orange, Microsoft ou Huawei, de l'Inria ou le Fraunhofer Fokus à la Gendarmerie Nationale ou la ville de Paris.
Nos projets sont plus célèbres que nous : ASM, Centreon, Lutece, PrestaShop, Sympa ou Rocket.Chat vous diront peut-être quelque chose ?
Philosophiquement, OW2 se trouve quelque part entre Eclipse et Apache : culture technique, infrastructure d'hébergement et d'assistance pour les projets, sur la ligne de crête entre l'esprit du libre et les contraintes du business, nous sommes un acteur de l'économie sociale, persuadé que l'open source est central dans une transformation sociétale nécessaire qui ne pourra se faire sans l'adhésion du monde industriel et académique.
A un tournant de notre histoire, nous investissons le créneau de la qualité industrielle des projets avec notre méthodologie "Market readiness Levels", et la gouvernance de l'open-source comme membre fondateur de l'OSPO Alliance (ospo.zone) et éditeur du guide méthodologique "OSS Good Governance handbook".
Ne nous y trompons pas : OW2 est un acteur éminemment politique, porteur d'une vision fondée sur la transformation du monde professionnel et de ses valeurs par le code et la coopération. Et cette présentation, avec un survol de notre histoire, adhérents, initiatives et projets, est également l'occasion d'en débattre.
This presentation by Cedric Thomas (OW2 CEO) details three OW2 initiatives to engage with mainstream open source software users, including the H2020 ReachOut project, Market Readiness and Good Governance.
Towards a sustainable solution to open source sustainability, OW2online20, Ju...OW2
A few years ago, Heartbleed epitomized a massive open source sustainability problem for critical parts of the internet infrastructure. The bug, which affected the popular OpenSSL cryptographic software library, notably compromised the confidentiality of 4.5 million US patient records and cost the industry an estimated $500M. It was soon revealed that the root cause of the issue was that OpenSSL was precariously understaffed. Open source sustainability became a major theme overnight. Stories of maintainer burn-out made the headlines. And tentative solutions started to emerge, most of them donation-based. In this talk we’ll explore a number of existing strategies to fund open source and make it more sustainable, from patronage to dedicated ad networks. And we’ll defend the idea that the best path to open source sustainability is to help companies understand the tangible business value they can get from contributing to open source.

Open Source governance and the Eclipse Foundation, OW2online, June 2020OW2
Presentation by Gael Blondelle, Managing Director at Eclipse Foundation.
Abstract:
In this talk, we will cover two complementary topics: The different Eclipse projects related to Open Source governance, like Eclipse SW360, SW360 Antenna, and Eclipse Steady, as well as the opportunity to leverage SW360 as the core of a larger Open Source governance initiative.
The Eclipse IP Process that has been applied to hundreds of Eclipse projects for more than 15 years and is going through a modernization process that involves both simplification from the developer point of view, and openness to new source of trusted data like Clearly Defined.
Open source contribution policies, OW2online, June 2020OW2
Open source contribution policies are long, boring, overlooked documents, that generally suck. They're designed to protect the company at all costs. But in the process, end up hurting engineering productivity, and morale. Sometimes they even unknowingly put corporate IP at risk.
But that's not inevitable.
It's possible to write open source contribution policies that make engineers lives easier, boost morale and productivity, reduce attrition, and attract new talent. And it's possible to do so while reducing the company's IP risk, not increasing it.
In this talk, we'll look at the general structure of contribution policies, examples in the wild, and tactics to make them suck less.
We'll also look at how to turn these policies into self-service software, preventing the tedious email back and forth between engineering and legal in most cases and making open source contribution a breeze. Presentation by Tobbie Langel, UnLockOpen.
Software development at scale, pandemic lockdown and oss ecosystems, OW2onlin...OW2
Presentation by Jose Manrique, CEO at Bitergia.
Abstract: 2020 has started intense for many countries. It's been just a few months, but the things we have lived make us feel like it's been years. Covid-19 pandemic has hit everywhere and forced many people to work from home. If you were lucky enough to be in one of these modern companies that have adopted digital transformation years ago, would that be a problem? Many people have thought it wasn't, but it has really been. And what about the rest of the software developers involved in companies not ready for remote work at all?
It's been said that nothing has boosted more companies' digital transformation than covid-19. But, are their managers ready for such change? Managing software development at scale is not an easy task, and this pandemic has disrupted the way projects are being developed in many companies.
During this talk, I would like to share lessons learned from open source development at scale that might help companies to adapt to these changes. But more specifically, lessons about how software development analytics help managers to understand collaborative remote work.
Overview of the OpenChain Reference Tooling Work Group, OW2online20, June 2020OW2
Presentation by Olivier Fendt, Senior Manager Open Source Software at Siemens.
Abstract: The well-known OpenChain project launched in Sept 2019 a Tooling Group. The objective of this group is to realize a turn-key Open Source toolchain for Open Source Compliance, which is / can be easily integrated in the software development CI/CD pipelines. The Tooling Group uses open source principles to accomplish this, creating a meritocracy producing real world solutions for real world challenges, and sharing these results with all interested parties. The presentation gives an overview of the Tooling group its objectives, the areas of focus, the current state and future plans.
Open Source Compliance at Orange, OW2online, June 2020OW2
Presentation by Nicolas Toussaint, Software Architect, Orange.
Abstract: Orange and Orange Business Services have turned to full open source solutions to tackle the complex problem of respecting the open source legal compliance constraints.
This talk presents the journey undertaken the past few years to build and improve the existing tooling and processes to make compliance validation possible, as well as allow overseeing progresses.
Ideas, methods and tools for OSS Compliance assessment, OW2online, June 2020OW2
Presentation by Boris Baldassari, Consultant, Castalia Solutions.
Abstract: While Open Source Software has become mainstream, the understanding of its key principles, from ethics and collaboration to governance and community management, is gaining more interest and attention. There is a comprehensive volume of studies and reports backing up our individual and collective experience, yet we still cannot reliably measure these characteristics, and even less clearly define or assess them.
In an attempt to build up confidence and foster maturity in this area, this talk will look at the various existing models and metrics related to OSS compliance and governance, and build upon them to propose methods and tools for their evaluation and analysis. We will discuss the requirements and essential questions to ask, offer guidelines for implementation and suggest efficient ways to present results.
Intelligent package management with FASTEN, OW2online, June 2020OW2
Presentation by Amir Mir, TUDelft.
As recent events, such as the leftpad incident and the Equifax data breach, have demonstrated, dependencies on networks of external libraries can introduce projects to significant operational and compliance risks as well as difficult to assess security implications. FASTEN introduces fine-grained, method-level, tracking of dependencies on top of existing dependency management networks. In our talk, we will present how FASTEN works on top of the Rust/Cargo and Java/Maven ecosystems.
DECODER, a Smarter Environment for DevOps Teams , OW2online, June 2020OW2
The DECODER project simplifies software library and component reuse, while ensuring that they will behave as expected by the developer. The DECODER central database (PKM) stores code-related artifacts and establish bindings between them, notably by generating formal specification from informal requirements or semi-formal models from source code. Presentation by Virgile Prevosto, CEA List.
Enabling DevOps for IoT software development, powered by Open Source, OW2onli...OW2
Presentation by Hui Song, Senior Scientist, SINTEF. We would like to share our research journey towards enabling DevOps for IoT applications, and how Open Source makes the journey feasible and fun.
DevOps is widely adopted for developing cloud applications, which supports developers in continuously placing software changes directly to production. As companies are including IoT and Edge devices into their IT infrastructures, supporting DevOps for IoT is a must. However, IoT challenges some fundamental assumptions behind DevOps, such as the homogeneous infrastructure and centralized governance, and therefore, breaking-through research is needed. Funded by H2020, 30 people from 12 partners crossing academia and industry gathered to solve these fundamental challenges, which results in full-stack open source tools for automatic deployment, learning-based operation and security monitoring of IoT applications, and risk management of the development process. The tools are evaluated on industrial use cases in intelligent transportation, smart building, and eHealth.
The mass open source tools and communities around IoT development provides the sound foundation for this design research and the opportunities for the further exploitation of the results. In particular, we are proud of spinning off a start-up to commercialize the risk management services in the open source + SaaS model.
Upcoming Challenges in Artificial Intelligence Research and Development, OW2o...OW2
Artificial Intelligence is now smarter than ever, showing human-like abilities at complex tasks such as images classification or natural language processing.
But despite its recent advances, it's still not a silver bullet. This talk will present a few challenges in the research and development of artificial intelligence that slow down its progress and adoption. In particular, problems around fairness, the training of models and how to share them will be introduced as well as possible Free Software solutions. Presentation by Vincent Lequertier, PhD Student, Lyon UNiverversity.
Cacti and Big Data at Orange France, OW2online, June 2020OW2
We propose a walkthrough of current utilization of Open Source Software in capacity planning for the Orange network infrastructure.
The objective of our project is to have a platform that helps engineers to carefully plan the resources available to them as well as to correlate different incidents within remote parts of the infrastructure.
In order to achieve this we started using Cacti with the Spine collector which worked great, but Orange France is a very large company with many entities, each with its own governance, and so we began to see some limitations.
There was a need to centralize some information from different parts in Orange France as well as to integrate the equipment capacity and load values into BigData Orange.
In order to achieve this we developed the “Puits de donneés” platform completely based on Open Source Software.
The visualization and statistical analysis part is handled by Grafana while the ETL runs on Apache Software Foundation products like NiFi, Zookeeper and Ambari with a storage solution from MariaDB for which we did extensive performance tuning and customization due to the large amounts of data.

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.
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).

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.

database
H a rdw a re a g nos tic : commodity
hardware, RAID not required
29. System Components
‣ T he R ing : Mapping of names to entities (accounts,
containers, objects) on disk.
‣ Stores data based on zones, devices, partitions, and replicas
‣ Weights can be used to balance the distribution of partitions
‣ Used by the Proxy Server for many background processes
‣ P rox y S erver: Request routing, exposes the public API
‣ O bjec t S erver: Blob storage server, uses xattrs, uses
binary format
‣ Recommended to run on XFS
‣ Object location based on path from name hash & timestamp
30. System Components (Cont.)
• C onta iner S erver: Handles listing of objects,
stores as SQLite DB
• A c c ount S erver: Handles listing of containers,
stores as SQLite DB
• R eplic a tion: Keep the system consistent, handle
failures
• U pda ters : Process failed or queued updates
‣ A udito rs : Verify integrity of objects, containers,
and accounts
31. Software Dependencies
Object Storage (Swift) development currently targets Ubuntu
Server 10.04, but should work on most Linux platforms with
the following software:
‣ Python 2.6
‣ rsync 3.0
And the following python libraries:
‣ Eventlet 0.9.8
‣ WebOb 0.9.8
‣ Setuptools
‣ Simplejson
‣ Xattr
‣ Nose
‣ Sphinx
33. Evolution of Object Storage

36. Hardware Selection
‣ OpenStack is designed to run on industry standard
hardware with flexible configurations
‣ C om pute
‣ X86 Server
‣ Storage flexible (Local, SAN, NAS)
‣ O bjec t S tora g e
‣ X86 Server (other architectures possible)
‣ Do not deploy with RAID (can use controller for case)

38. Server Vendor Support
Find out how much configuration your hardware can
provide
‣ B a s ic N eeds
‣ BIOS settings
‣ Network boot
‣ IP on IPMI card
‣ A dva nc ed S upport
‣ Host OS installation
‣ Still get management network IP via DHCP
39. Network Device Configuration
‣ Build in a manner that requires minimal change
‣ Lay out addressing in a block-based model
‣ Go to Layer 3 from the top of rack uplink
‣ Keep configuration simple
‣ More bandwidth is better than advanced QoS
‣ Let the compute host machines create logical zones
40. Host Networking
‣ DHCP for the management network
‣ Infinite leases
‣ Base DNS on IP
‣ Ex. nh-pod-a-10-241-61-8.example.org
‣ OpenStack Compute handles IP provisioning for all
guest instances – Cloud deployment tools only need
to setup management Ips
41. Host OS Seed Installation – Choosing a
Method
‣ BOOTP / TFTP – Simple to configure
‣ Security must be handled outside of TFTP
‣ Host node must be able to reach management
system via broadcast request
‣ Top of rack router can be configured to forward
‣ GPXE
‣ Not all hardware supports
‣ Better concurrent install capability than TFTP
42. Options to Automate Host OS
Installation
‣ Building a configuration based on a scripted installation
is better than a monolithic “golden image”
‣ KickPreseed for Ubuntu / Debian hosts
‣ start for Fedora / CentOS / RHEL hosts
‣ YaST for SUS / SLES hosts
‣ Scripted configuration allows for incremental updates
with less effort
43. Post OS Configuration
‣ Choose a configuration management solution
‣ Puppet / Chef / Cfengine
‣ Create roles to scale out controller infrastructure
‣ Queue
‣ Database
‣ Controller
‣ Automate registration of new host machines
‣ Base the configuration to run on management net IP
44. OpenStack Release Process: Four
Phases
‣ Design: Starting the day of the release to one
week after the summit (when the Blueprints are
accepted and prioritized)
‣ Development: until Feature Freeze date
‣ QA: until Final Freeze date
‣ Release: final testing and development tasks in
the last week
