OpenNebula Conf 2014 | Understanding the OpenNebula Model for Cloud Provision...NETWAYS
OpenNebula’s quest for simplicity touches every aspect of the software,and one of the greater effort has been put into the provisioning model. A smooth experience for users entails a proper design of the concepts, ironing out the flow of day to day operations, as well as proper tools for the administrators to manage its cloud.
For this reason, OpenNebula features Virtual Datacenters (vDCs), which are containers for the execution of virtual machines, as well as a way of hiding physical resources from group members. Three actors are identified in this model: the cloud administrator, the vDC administrator and the end user. In this talk we will see how this vDCs are created, how physical resources are associated to them and administrators of the vDCs are managed and given permissions. All this topped with an excellent interface, the Cloud View, adapted for each of the actors.

Jenkins, jclouds, CloudStack, and CentOS by David Nalleybuildacloud
Setting up continuous integration for a single project can be a pretty daunting task. Doing that for hundreds of projects becomes a challenge of a different magnitude. Not only are their capacity problems, but some tests are destructive to the testing environment, some have esoteric environment demands. See how this is solved in the real world using Jenkins, jclouds, CloudStack to build an on-demand build infrastructure.

Quantifying the Noisy Neighbor Problem in OpenstackNodir Kodirov
Two of the desirable features for private clouds are better control and predictable performance. Although public clouds have been extensively researched to characterize their unpredictable performance, private clouds have received less scrutiny.
In this talk, we will present how production workloads interfere with each other in an Openstack based cloud. We draw lessons from a several month long study of running workloads in different configurations on highly available implementation of Openstack. We study the impact of noisy neighbors on the network and storage IO performance of applications. We also look at the performance metrics of Openstack control plane and how the API calls are impacted with more number of entities like networks, routers, VMs, volumes. Our study relies on a tool that we developed to create clean and noisy workload deployments, using micro-benchmarks as well as enterprise workloads such as Hadoop, Jenkins and Redis.
Guaranteeing Storage Performance by Mike Tutkowskibuildacloud
This session will introduce the basics of primary storage in CloudStack. Additionally, I discuss the challenges of guaranteeing storage performance in a cloud and how by leveraging the latest enhancements to CloudStack, storage administrators can deliver consistent, repeatable performance to 10s, 100s or 1,000s of application workloads in parallel. I'll review the CloudStack enhancements in detail, outline the management benefits they provide and discuss common go-to-market approaches.

My talk from BACD http://buildacloud.org workshop in Ghent, Belgium
All videos can be viewed at: http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLb899uhkHRoZZefRW5XmCb8QBcRO7o74E
This is an introductory talk for the workshop, it introduces CloudStack and the community at the Apache Software Foundation, it presents the basic layers of the Cloud IaaS, PaaS, and SaaS and shows how the CloudStack ecosystem addresses all layers. It presents the basic features of cloudstack, networking with a focus on SDN (Software Defined Networking) , storage with a focus on large scale object store (Ceph), a use case with Spotify, a PaaS with Karafe and fuse Fabric, the API using deltacloud which provides the CIMI standard interface and an application integration using the CloudStack API with Activeeon.
This is the perfect complement to the videos on youtube and serves as a introduction to CloudStack.
Sergey Dzyuban "To Build My Own Cloud with Blackjack…"Fwdays
Cloud providers like Amazon or Google have a great user experience to create and manage PaaS. But is it possible to reproduce the same experience and flexibility locally, in the on-premise datacenter? What if your own infrastructure grows to fast and your team can’t deal with it in the old way? What does Jenkins, .NET microservices and TVs for daily meetings have in common?
This talk shares our experience using DC/OS (datacenter operating system) for building flexible and stable infrastructure. I will show the evolution of private cloud from the first steps with Vagrant to the hybrid cloud with instance groups in Google Cloud, the benefits it gives us and the problems we get instead.
More than nine out of ten private cloud projects start off poorly. Some of them fail due to cost over runs. Others flop because they under-deliver on functionality. And many suffer from unnecessary complexity and schedule delays.
The ZeroStack Cloud Platform was specifically designed to solve these problems. A true end-to-end solution supporting 100% pure OpenStack APIs, it offers the best of both clouds -- the convenience and agility of the Public Cloud combined with the control and performance of the Private Cloud.

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.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

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!
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.
