AWS Summit 2013 | Singapore - Design for Success: Defining & Delivering your ...Amazon Web Services
AWS and BMC Cloud Management are the cloud services and management that enable IT organisations to pursue robust, flexible and controlled hybrid IT strategies which augment well-understood on-premises resources with scalable on-demand public cloud services.
CloudFX helps execute on this strategy, delivering financial and business benefits of cloud computing that include: faster time-to-market, moving CapEx to OpEx and fortifying IT systems while maintaining tight controls and governance across the entire hybrid environment.
Organisations can find it more difficult to manage public cloud services than they originally expected and often they lack the skills and expertise necessary to do it properly.
Management becomes increasingly complex if using multiple cloud providers. Vendors are approaching cloud management in unique ways and in most cases tying you into specific cloud providers, making it difficult to compare select and even control public hybrid solutions
This session will look at tools and approaches that can assist your organisation to not only migrate workloads to the public cloud but also between the clouds, and toolsets designed to improve and control performance and flexibility in the cloud.
Best Practices for Multi-Cloud Security and ComplianceRightScale
The last few months have seen ongoing cloud security breaches and a heightened data privacy focus due to GDPR. In today’s multi-cloud environment, enterprises are challenged to ensure security and compliance across both public and private clouds. We will help you understand best practices for multi-cloud security and compliance and how a cloud management platform (CMP) can help.
Using RightScale CMP with Cloud Provider ToolsRightScale
Large organizations are using cloud management platforms (CMPs) to manage and govern multi-cloud environments. They need their CMPs to work regardless of the cloud provider tools used by development teams, including AWS Cloud Formation templates, Azure Resource Manager templates, and container services. We will show how RightScale CMP can add operation orchestration and governance regardless of how you provision your workloads.

Moving your applications from traditional IT stacks to the cloud is not an easy task. Migration to the cloud can cause security nightmares, performance degradation, and sudden cost spikes, to name just a few possible problems. For a successful cloud migration, you need to evolve both technology and business processes.
Nonetheless, moving from legacy infrastructure to public, private, or hybrid cloud can bring massive benefits, including increased flexibility, the ability to scale up or down as needed, and dramatic cost savings. When done well, transforming your business to adopt cloud services can be both painless and profitable.
Please join us for this webinar by James Bond, CTO at Hewlett Packard Enterprise and an expert in cloud computing. He will cover best practices for making your cloud migration successful, including:
* Why your organization should consider a cloud migration
* How to properly plan for cloud deployment
* What approach you should take to ensure security
* How orchestration tools can help achieve efficiency
* How to build cloud native applications to best take advantage of the cloud

Introducing the OMG’s Data Residency Maturity Model
With the rise of managed IT services and cloud computing, sensitive data is regularly moved across countries and jurisdictions, which can be in direct conflict with various international, national or local regulations dictating where certain types of data can be stored (e.g., the European Union’ General Data Protection Regulation, or GDPR). Data residency is also a consideration of data owners responsible for protecting and securing data from unintended access.
The Object Management Group® (OMG®), a technology standards consortium, launched a working group in 2015 to address the challenges of data residency and define a standards roadmap to help stakeholders manage the location of their data and metadata.
Given the complexity of the issue, a stepwise improvement plan is necessary. This webinar will introduce a new Data Residency Maturity Model (DRMM) proposed in December 2017. Similar to the Capability Maturity Model (CMM) invented in 1990 at the Software Engineering Institute (SEI), the DRMM contains five maturity levels aimed at helping an organization improve their practices and governance of data residency. The OMG seeks feedback on the DRMM and calls on all interested parties to contribute to this work.

As data is increasingly accessed and shared across geographic boundaries, a growing web of conflicting laws and regulations dictate where data can be transferred, stored, and shared, and how it is protected. The Object Management Group® (OMG®) and the Cloud Standards Customer Council™ (CSCC™) recently completed a significant effort to analyze and document the challenges posed by data residency. Data residency issues result from the storage and movement of data and metadata across geographies and jurisdictions.
Attend this webinar to learn more about data residency:
• How it may impact users and providers of IT services (including but not limited to the cloud)
• The complex web of laws and regulations that govern this area
• The relevant aspects – and limitations -- of current standards and potential areas of improvement
• How to contribute to future work

The topics of interoperability and portability are significant considerations in relation to the use of cloud services, but there is confusion and misunderstanding of exactly what this entails.
Interoperability and Portability for Cloud Computing: A Guide provides a clear definition of interoperability and portability and how these relate to various aspects of cloud computing and to cloud services.
This webinar will describe interoperability and portability in terms of a set of common cloud computing scenarios. This approach assists in demonstrating that both interoperability and portability have multiple aspects and relate to a number of different components in the architecture of cloud computing, each of which needs to be considered in its own right. The aim is to give both cloud service customers and cloud service providers guidance in the provision and selection of cloud services indicating how interoperability and portability affect the cost, security and risk involved.

The Internet of Things (IoT) is one of the most exciting and dynamic areas of IT at the present time. IoT involves the linking of physical entities (“things”) with IT systems that derive information about or from those things which can be used to drive a wide variety of applications and services which may be directly or indirectly connected or related to those things. IoT covers a very wide spectrum of applications, spanning enterprises, governments and consumers and represents the integration of systems from traditionally different communities: Information Technology and Operational Technology. As a result, it is important for IoT systems to have architectures, systems principles, and operations that can accommodate the interesting scale, safety, reliability, and privacy requirements.
The CSCC deliverable, Cloud Customer Architecture for IoT, shares best practices for supporting IoT using cloud computing.

OpenStack is a free and open-source software platform for building and managing cloud computing platforms for public and private clouds, mostly deployed as an infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS). The software platform consists of interrelated components that control hardware pools of processing, storage, and networking resources throughout a data center. OpenStack works with popular enterprise and open source technologies making it ideal for heterogeneous infrastructure.
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:
