Build bare metal kubernetes cluster for hpc on open stack in translational me...Shuquan Huang
With the medicine technology advances, it is possible to create a patient profile by a full genomic data along with vast amount of patient data from personal fitness devices, medical record, etc. Translational medicine is aim at moving faster from research to patient care by integrating the data across traditional silos which requires a cloud to support multi-tenancy, self-service, big data analysis and HPC workload. OpenStack are good at virtual machine management, while we use VM to serve as a container host which brings virtualization overhead in overlay networking, I/O operations, etc. and it won’t get benefit from some advanced features. In this session, we'll share:
How to build an OpenStack cloud for HPC with multi-tenancy and self-services;
How to build a bare metal kubernetes cluster with OpenStack Magnum and Ironic;
The issues we are facing and how we overcome them;
The gaps remaining and what does the community need to improve in the future;
More thinking and new ideas.

Introduction to Container Storage Interface (CSI)Idan Atias
Among the cool stuff we do at Silk, my colleagues and I develop the Silk CSI Plugin for customers who use our system as the storage layer for their Kubernetes workloads.
Before deep diving into the code and as part of my ramp-up on this subject I prepared some slides that cover some basic and important information on this topic.
These slides start by recapping some basic storage principals in containers and Kubernetes, continues with some more advanced use cases (including an "offline demo" of persisting Redis data on EBS volumes), and ends with a detailed information on the CSI solution itself.
IMHO, reviewing these slides can improve your understanding on this matter and can get you started implementing your own CSI plugin.
The main sources of information I used for preparing these slides are:
* Official CSI docs
* Kubernetes Storage Lingo 101 - Saad Ali, Google
* Container Storage Interface: Present and Future - Jie Yu, Mesosphere, Inc.
Compose hardware resources on the fly with openstack valenceShuquan Huang
In the face of ever-growing data processing requirements, existing data center infrastructures struggle to deliver on flexibility and TCO expectations. Intel Rack Scale Design Technology is to evolve the data center design methodology from physical resource aggregation to resource pools and eventually target for future’s service aware orchestration. Meanwhile, as a ubiquitous cloud OS that able to control/orchestrate large pools of compute, storage and network resources, OpenStack can take advantages of it to deliver more optimized flexibility and performance against cost in areas such as deep learning, big data, telecom, etc.
Valence is a new OpenStack project announced in Barcelona Summit which is a collection of all things about RSD for OpenStack. In this session, we’ll elaborate valence’s mission, user cases and status. And then, we’ll discuss how other projects can leverage RSD by integration with valence. Finally, we'll show some live demos about how valence works right now.
The Nuage Networks Virtualized Cloud Services solution integrates seamlessly with CloudStack’s advanced networking, supporting Shared Networks, Isolated Networks and VPC’s for KVM and ESXI hypervisors. That integration is bidirectional in the way that networks can be provisioned in CloudStack and be programmed into Nuage, as can be provisioned as advanced networking topologies within Nuage and be consumed from CloudStack. Empowered with SDN, operators can boost their clouds with networking scalability and performance which through native VR networking cannot be met.

Is "Free" Good Enough for Your MySQL Environment?Datavail
MySQL can be the perfect answer for fast-growing, highly-performant and geographically-distributed database environments, but in order to function as a business-critical system with immediate response times, the ubiquitous database server needs a little help.
That’s where Continuent and Datavail come in. Combined, these two companies, which specialize in making MySQL and other databases perform continuously, have helped hundreds of enterprise, mid-market and start-up companies alike, including many in the data-dependent SaaS, e-commerce, financial services and gaming industries.
In addition, we’ll dive into why ‘managed’ database-as-a-service solutions, may not be quite as self-managing as people would like to believe. You’ll hear several case studies on how clients are effectively utilizing Continuent Tungsten software and Datavail services to optimize their MySQL environments.
Session on CloudStack, intended for new users to CloudStack, provides an overview to varied audience levels information on usages, use cases, deployment and its architecture.

OpenNebulaConf2019 - Welcome and Project Update - Ignacio M. Llorente, Rubén ...OpenNebula Project
We've made our way into the world of open cloud — where each organization can find the right cloud for its unique needs. A single cloud management platform cannot be all things to all people. There will be a cloud space with several offerings focused on different environments and/or industries. The OpenNebula commitment to the open cloud is at the very base of its mission — to become the simplest cloud enabling platform — and its purpose — to bring simplicity to the private and hybrid enterprise cloud. OpenNebula exists to help companies build simple, cost-effective, reliable, open enterprise clouds on existing IT infrastructure. The OpenNebula Conference will be a great opportunity to communicate and share our vision and commitment, to look back at how the project has grown in the last 9 years, and to shed some insight into what to expect from the project in the near future.
OpenNebulaConf2019 - Building Virtual Environments for Security Analyses of C...OpenNebula Project
Computer networks are undergoing a phenomenal growth, driven by the rapidly increasing number of nodes constituting the networks. At the same time, the number of security threats on Internet and intranet networks is constantly increasing, and the testing and experimentation of cyber defense solutions require the availability of separate, test environments that best reflect the complexity of a real system. Such environments support the deployment and monitoring of complex mission-driven network scenarios, and cyber security training activities, thus enabling enterprises to study cyber defense strategies and allowing security researchers to evaluate their algorithms at scale.
The main objective is delivering to researchers and practitioners an overview of the technological means and the practical steps to setup a private cloud platform based on OpenNebula for the creation and management of virtual environments that support cyber-security activities of training and testing, as well as an overview of its possible applications in the cyber security domain.
In particular:
1. We describe our infrastructure based on OpenNebula
2. We overview our application, sitting on top of OpenNebula, as well as the technological tools involved in the management of its lifecycle (e.g., Ansible) .
3. We show how the platform can support various examples of security research activities

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing DaysKari Kakkonen
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.

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.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!
Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

PHP Frameworks: I want to break free (IPC Berlin 2024)Ralf Eggert
In this presentation, we examine the challenges and limitations of relying too heavily on PHP frameworks in web development. We discuss the history of PHP and its frameworks to understand how this dependence has evolved. The focus will be on providing concrete tips and strategies to reduce reliance on these frameworks, based on real-world examples and practical considerations. The goal is to equip developers with the skills and knowledge to create more flexible and future-proof web applications. We'll explore the importance of maintaining autonomy in a rapidly changing tech landscape and how to make informed decisions in PHP development.
This talk is aimed at encouraging a more independent approach to using PHP frameworks, moving towards a more flexible and future-proof approach to PHP development.
