This is the second of a 2-part series delivered at Prairie DevCon in Calgry on March 15. 2012. The sessions provided a quick overview of the new features of Hyper-V in Windows Server "8" Beta and how these compare to VMware vSphere 5.
This is the deck that I used at the January 2012 Hyper-V.nu event in Amsterdam, Netherlands. It focuses on the Build announced details on Windows Server 8 Hyper-V networking.

The needs for immediate responsiveness of VMs in the virtualized environments have been on the rise. Several services in SKT also require soft realtime support for virtual machines to substitute the physical machines to achieve high utilization and adaptability. However, consolidated multiple OSes and irregular external events might render the hypervisor infringe on a VM's promptitude. As a solution of this problem, we are improving Xen's credit scheduler by introducing the RT_PRIORITY that guarantees a VM's running at any given point in time as long as credits remains to be burn. It would increase the quality of service and make a VM's behavior predictable on the consolidated environment. In addition, we extend our suggestion to the multi-core environment and even a large number of physical machines by using live migrations.
Vitalization & HP TippingPoint
Virtual Firewall for Virtual machines, to validate the east west communications. As growth is tremendous in ES communication than legacy Datacenter architects more focus on North South traffic.
CloudStack, the world's leading open-source cloud infrastructure platform, was recently donated to the Apache Foundation, and is now an incubated Apache project. Ewan Mellor, Director of Engineering in the Citrix Cloud Platforms Group will describe the CloudStack project and explain why Xen is the pre-eminent hypervisor in public clouds today. He will describe the changes coming in CloudStack in the next 12 months, and how they are going to change the way that Xen is consumed in public and private clouds next year.

Software Defined Networking is seeing a lot of momentum these days. With server virtualization solving the virtual machines problem, and large scale object storage solving the distributed storage challenge, SDN is seen as key in virtual networking.
In this talk we don't try to define SDN but rather dive straight into what in our opinion is the core enabled of SDN: the virtual switch OVS.
OVS can help manage VLAN for guest network isolation, it can re-route any traffic at L2-L4 by keeping forwarding tables controlled by a remote controller (Openfow controller). We show these few OVS capabilities and highlight how they are used in CloudStack and Xen.

Builder.ai Founder Sachin Dev Duggal's Strategic Approach to Create an Innova...Ramesh Iyer
In today's fast-changing business world, Companies that adapt and embrace new ideas often need help to keep up with the competition. However, fostering a culture of innovation takes much work. It takes vision, leadership and willingness to take risks in the right proportion. Sachin Dev Duggal, co-founder of Builder.ai, has perfected the art of this balance, creating a company culture where creativity and growth are nurtured at each stage.
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.
Essentials of Automations: Optimizing FME Workflows with ParametersSafe Software
Are you looking to streamline your workflows and boost your projects’ efficiency? Do you find yourself searching for ways to add flexibility and control over your FME workflows? If so, you’re in the right place.

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.

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!

1. DirectPath IO, whilst not identical to SR-IOV, aims to provide virtual machines with more direct access
to hardware devices, with network cards being a good example. Whilst on the surface, this will boost
VM networking performance, and reduce the burden on host CPU cycles, in reality, there are a
number of caveats in using DirectPath I/O:
• Very small Hardware Compatibility List
• No Memory Overcommit
• No vMotion (unless running certain configurations of Cisco UCS)
• No Fault Tolerance
• No Network I/O Control
• No VM Snapshots (unless running certain configurations of Cisco UCS)
• No Suspend/Resume (unless running certain configurations of Cisco UCS)
• No VMsafe/Endpoint Security support
No such restrictions are imposed when using SR-IOV, ensuring customers can combine the highest
levels of performance with the flexibility they need for an agile infrastructure.
