Abstract: A case study of how Pinterest uses Puppet to manage its infrastructure. Pinterest has hundreds of Amazon EC2 virtual servers and uses Puppet Dashboard as the “source of truth” about its server inventory. Pinterest built a REST API for this database, which powers tools and automated scripts that integrate Puppet with internal systems and with Amazon Web Services.
Speaker Bio: Ryan Park leads operations and infrastructure at Pinterest, one of 2012’s fastest growing web sites. Pinterest’s entire infrastructure is in the cloud, built atop hundreds of Amazon EC2 virtual server instances. Ryan introduced Puppet to their infrastructure as soon as he joined the company, and they now use Puppet as the primary tool for managing their infrastructure. Prior to joining Pinterest, Ryan was the Head of Operations at PBworks, an online team collaboration service.

Abstract: Ops at GitHub has a unique challenge - keeping up with the rabid pace of features and products that the GitHub team develops. In this talk, we'll focus on tools and techniques we use to rapidly and confidently ship infrastructure changes/features with Puppet using Puppet-Rspec, CI, Puppet-Lint, branch puppet deploys, and Hubot.
Speaker Bio: Jesse Newland does Ops at GitHub. His favorite hobby is SPOF wack-a-mole, followed closely by guitar and piano. Prior to GitHub, Jesse was the CTO at Rails Machine where he ran a large private cloud and managed several hundred production Ruby on Rails applications using Puppet. To the delight and/or chagrin of the Puppet community, Jesse is to blame for Moonshine, the Ruby DSL for Puppet before Puppet had a Ruby DSL.
Django is very stable web-framework that has been actively developed over past ten years. There might be many tutorials and talks out there about Django but there is hardly one that is more catered to mobile developers. After all, mobile developers have to carefully choose a backend for their app because it’s the building block of a good project.This talk is not only for mobile app developers but also for beginners in both Python and Django. This talk will suggest libraries and show how they can help you implement a wonderful and flexible project. Video : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-RpxpKuyCBE&t=1s

Node.js vs Play Framework (with Japanese subtitles)Yevgeniy Brikman
Video: http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/1410857293
Here's the showdown you've been waiting for: Node.js vs Play Framework. Both are popular open source web frameworks that are built for developer productivity, asynchronous I/O, and the real time web. But which one is easier to learn, test, deploy, debug, and scale? Should you pick Javascript or Scala? The Google v8 engine or the JVM? NPM or Ivy? Grunt or SBT? Two frameworks enter, one framework leaves.

Video of the presentation: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8z3h4Uv9YbE
At LinkedIn, we have started to use the Play Framework to build front-end and back-end services at massive scale. Play does things a little differently: it's a Java and Scala web framework, but it doesn't follow the servlet spec; it's fairly new, but it runs on top of robust technologies like Akka and Netty; it uses a thread pool, but it's built for non-blocking I/O and reactive programming; most importantly, it's high performance, but also high productivity. We've found that the Play Framework is one of the few frameworks that is able to maintain the delicate balance of performance, reliability, and developer productivity. In the Java and Scala world, nothing even comes close. In this talk, I'll share what we've learned so far, including details of rapid iteration with Java and Scala, the story behind async I/O on the JVM, support for real time web apps (comet, WebSockets), and integrating Play into a large existing codebase.
An introduction to SBT and how it works internally.

Eddystone Beacons - Physical Web - Giving a URL to All ObjectsJeff Prestes
More mobile technologies are empowering people and machines to become more autonomous. In the same way as people, machines need ways to be identified to other sources in a connected environment. This begs the question, why not give a URL to objects? With Eddystone, a new Google specification for Beacon data, this is possible, and it works with both Android and iOS based devices.
With it you can implement what physical-web.org stands
Ant is a Java library and command-line tool. Ant's mission is to drive processes described in build files as targets and extension points dependent upon each other. The main known usage of Ant is the build of Java applications. Ant supplies a number of built-in tasks allowing to compile, assemble, test and run Java applications. Ant can also be used effectively to build non Java applications, for instance C or C++ applications. More generally, Ant can be used to pilot any type of process which can be described in terms of targets and tasks.
Ant is written in Java. Users of Ant can develop their own "antlibs" containing Ant tasks and types, and are offered a large number of ready-made commercial or open-source "antlibs".
Ant is extremely flexible and does not impose coding conventions or directory layouts to the Java projects which adopt it as a build tool.
Software development projects looking for a solution combining build tool and dependency management can use Ant in combination with Ivy.
In the past years it was our mission to manage development, testing and production environments for web projects with agile multi-team setups. Systems were often rather complex, with dozens of services involved. The infrastructure requirements changed frequently and as agile as the rest of project. And of course changes had to be tested and deployed continuously in a controlled and reproducible manner. A mission impossible without systematic configuration management and even with such a great tool like Puppet a continuous challenge.
In this talk I will present our collection of useful tools, learnings and design patterns for Puppet. We will potentially come across topics like Vagrant, VeeWee, EC2, Docker, ENC, facter.d, git magic, Hiera, monitoring, autoregistration, rspec testing, MCollective, Puppet roles and profiles. This talk will not reinvent the wheel, but present some techniques that made us much more productive in our daily work and will hopefully help you in the future.

Apache Druid Auto Scale-out/in for Streaming Data Ingestion on KubernetesDataWorks Summit
The importance of ingestion and processing streaming data in telecommunication industry is ever increasing. We, SK Telecom which is Korea's number-one telecommunications provider, encounter how to use infra resources more efficiently. Apache Druid supports auto scaling feature for data ingestion, but it is only available on AWS EC2. We cannot rely on the feature on our private cloud.
In this talk, we are going to introduce auto scale-out/in on Kubernetes. This approach is more outstanding than Druid's scaling implementation. Here are the benefits. The first is our approach can be used anywhere on private cloud or (managed) Kubernetes in Azure, AWS and GKE. The second is AWS EC2's startup and termination requires a few minutes, but our approach requires a few seconds. The last is the scaling mechanism is decoupled from Druid's source code. We will also share development of Druid Helm chart, rolling update, custom metric usage for horizontal auto scaling.
The below is about detailed benefit compared with Druid's auto scaling approach:
1. Druid's auto scaling is only available in AWS, but our approach does not have the obstacle. It can be used in Private cloud(on-premise) are (managed) Kubernetes in Azure, AWS and GKE.
2. AWS EC2 is an instance of virtual machine, so the startup is slower than docker container. A few minutes are required for startup or termination of EC2. Docker container is very lightweight, so it requires a few seconds.
3. Druid's auto scaling is tightly coupled with AWS API because Druid engine code uses AWS API. Our scale-out/in algorithm is conceptually equal to Druid's auto scaling approach, but we decoupled the dependency because Kubernetes communicate with one of dispatcher nodes(i.e. Overlord node) using REST API.
Can puppet help you run docker on a T2.Micro?Neil Millard
A puppet beginners guide through a number of the key concepts of puppet; stages, Role and profile, hiera data and puppet forge, as well as a brief introduction to Docker.
We will use these to explain a solution of running a puppet manifest to configure Amazon's smallest server to run a docker containerised web service.
You will learn why puppet stages are required in this solution, how roles and profiles are defined and used, and finally use of the puppet Forge with Hiera data to install and run docker containers.
This talk will contain links to code that can be used afterwards and we'll touch on what docker is and how to configure the puppet module to automatically run containers.

Puppet Camp Silicon Valley 2015: How TubeMogul reached 10,000 Puppet Deployme...Nicolas Brousse
TubeMogul grew from few servers to over two thousands servers and handling over one trillion http requests a month, processed in less than 50ms each. To keep up with the fast growth, the SRE team had to implement an efficient Continuous Delivery infrastructure that allowed to do over 10,000 puppet deployment and 8,500 application deployment in 2014. In this presentation, we will cover the nuts and bolts of the TubeMogul operations engineering team and how they over come challenges.

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.

27. “How can we move on and
puppetize our main servers?”
28. First steps on existing systems
• Start small, then expand
• Even few automated tasks may save a lot of time
• 80/20 rule applies
29. Establish a new workflow
• Add notification and QA (if wanted, e. g. with Gerrit),
• Use etckeeper to track changes,
• Define and document boundaries/responsibilities,
• Add comments, point to real source of configuration:
# managed by puppet -- editing is futile
# template in git.example.com/provisioning.git
...
• Run Puppet frequently
51. Puppet Problems
• some tasks require two agent runs
• apt-get upgrade and package dependencies
• version mismatch between apt (or yum) and package
• scoping and namespaces
• exec is the new eval
53. exec tricks
Both source and solution to a great many problems.
You can do (and break) everything with exec and a shell script.
But of course you should not.
64. “Why do we still manually
configure DNS and
monitoring?”
65. Hooks to other systems
• include in provisioning process
• provide normative data as facts
• register or update DNS name → e. g. Route 53
• update monitoring → e. g. Zabbix API
• update loadbalancer → e. g. ELB or Consul
