Libcloud and JClouds provide open source libraries that offer abstract APIs for interacting with multiple cloud platforms. Libcloud supports Python while JClouds supports Java. They aim to solve the problems of managing multiple cloud stacks that have different APIs by providing a common interface. This helps avoid vendor lock-in and allows applications to easily work across different cloud providers like AWS, Rackspace, Cloud.com and others.
This document provides an overview and introduction to using the libcloud library for multi-cloud management. It discusses key concepts like providers, drivers, images, sizes and locations. It provides examples of how to connect to providers like EC2 and Rackspace, launch nodes, list existing nodes, and destroy nodes. Libcloud supports a common API across many cloud providers for tasks like compute management.
This document compares the Platform as a Service (PaaS) providers Heroku, EngineYard, and ShellyCloud. It discusses their architectures, deployment processes using Git, management via command line interfaces, supported languages, free tiers, file storage, email sending options, database support, and pricing models. The aim of PaaS is to handle infrastructure management and allow developers to focus on building applications without worrying about deployment or operations.

CloudStack provides an orchestration platform that abstracts physical network resources and allows third party plugins to integrate their networking services. It separates orchestration from actual provisioning, with CloudStack only handling orchestration events and notifications, while provisioning is handled by plugins. This allows services to scale independently of CloudStack. CloudStack defines common concepts like Networks, but plugins determine how these map to physical networks through interfaces like NetworkGuru. This architecture enables innovation from partners through well-defined plugin APIs and abstraction layers.
Demystifying Application Connectivity with Kubernetes in the Docker PlatformNicola Kabar
The addition of Kubernetes support to Docker Enterprise Platform presents deployments with interesting new abstractions for application connectivity. Users and Operators are often challenged with rationalizing how pod networking (with CNI plugins like Calico or Flannel), Services (via kube-proxy) and Ingress work in concert to enable application connectivity within and outside a cluster. Similarly, given the dynamic and transient nature of containerized microservice workloads, how to leverage scalable and declarative approaches like network policies to express segmentation and security primitives. This session provides an illustrative walkthrough of these core concepts by going through common deployment architectures providing design, operations, and scale considerations based on experience from numerous production deployments. The session will also showcase how to complement application and operations workflows with policy-driven business, compliance and security controls typically required in enterprise production deployments.

Three Degrees of Mediation: Challenges and Lessons in building Cloud-agnostic...Alex Maclinovsky
The paper presented on Cloud slam 2014 cloud computing conference. It is based on the work I have done while working as a Technology Principal and Cloud Innovation Lead at Global Technology Consulting Firm. It describes unique challenges encountered during the development of a Cloud Broker. Designed to provide seamless and uniform user experience as well as additional enterprise-level capabilities over a broad range of public and private cloud platforms, the broker had to work with a wide variety of diverse cloud APIs. And, in order to allow rapid onboarding of new target clouds, we had to design the system to operate in a generic cloud-agnostic way. We have reviewed and tried quite a few of available cloud integration technologies, both commercial and open-source as a foundation for our cloud abstraction and mediation layer. Couple seemed to be a good choice and, in theory, should have served all our needs, but in the course of development we found that the problem was far more complex than we (and the rest of the market) had anticipated. As we were building our system, we discovered that there was not just one, but 3 different levels of mediation required to build a truly cloud-agnostic solution: syntactic, semantic and idiosyncratic and even the best off-the-shelf solution will not be able to give us that last two out of the box. The final part of the presentation describes the architecture that allows to realize our goals and build the universal broker.

This is a session that details how PostgreSQL's features and Azure AI Services can be effectively used to significantly enhance the search functionality in any application.
In this session, we'll share insights on how we used PostgreSQL to facilitate precise searches across multiple fields in our mobile application. The techniques include using LIKE and ILIKE operators and integrating a trigram-based search to handle potential misspellings, thereby increasing the search accuracy.
We'll also discuss how the azure_ai extension on PostgreSQL databases in Azure and Azure AI Services were utilized to create vectors from user input, a feature beneficial when users wish to find specific items based on text prompts. While our application's case study involves a drug search, the techniques and principles shared in this session can be adapted to improve search functionality in a wide range of applications. Join us to learn how PostgreSQL and Azure AI can be harnessed to enhance your application's search capability.
Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity serverAntonios Katsarakis
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).

zkStudyClub - LatticeFold: A Lattice-based Folding Scheme and its Application...Alex Pruden
Folding is a recent technique for building efficient recursive SNARKs. Several elegant folding protocols have been proposed, such as Nova, Supernova, Hypernova, Protostar, and others. However, all of them rely on an additively homomorphic commitment scheme based on discrete log, and are therefore not post-quantum secure. In this work we present LatticeFold, the first lattice-based folding protocol based on the Module SIS problem. This folding protocol naturally leads to an efficient recursive lattice-based SNARK and an efficient PCD scheme. LatticeFold supports folding low-degree relations, such as R1CS, as well as high-degree relations, such as CCS. The key challenge is to construct a secure folding protocol that works with the Ajtai commitment scheme. The difficulty, is ensuring that extracted witnesses are low norm through many rounds of folding. We present a novel technique using the sumcheck protocol to ensure that extracted witnesses are always low norm no matter how many rounds of folding are used. Our evaluation of the final proof system suggests that it is as performant as Hypernova, while providing post-quantum security.

[OReilly Superstream] Occupy the Space: A grassroots guide to engineering (an...Jason Yip
The typical problem in product engineering is not bad strategy, so much as “no strategy”. This leads to confusion, lack of motivation, and incoherent action. The next time you look for a strategy and find an empty space, instead of waiting for it to be filled, I will show you how to fill it in yourself. If you’re wrong, it forces a correction. If you’re right, it helps create focus. I’ll share how I’ve approached this in the past, both what works and lessons for what didn’t work so well.
"$10 thousand per minute of downtime: architecture, queues, streaming and fin...Fwdays
Direct losses from downtime in 1 minute = $5-$10 thousand dollars. Reputation is priceless.
As part of the talk, we will consider the architectural strategies necessary for the development of highly loaded fintech solutions. We will focus on using queues and streaming to efficiently work and manage large amounts of data in real-time and to minimize latency.
We will focus special attention on the architectural patterns used in the design of the fintech system, microservices and event-driven architecture, which ensure scalability, fault tolerance, and consistency of the entire system.
Introduction of Cybersecurity with OSS at Code Europe 2024Hiroshi SHIBATA
I develop the Ruby programming language, RubyGems, and Bundler, which are package managers for Ruby. Today, I will introduce how to enhance the security of your application using open-source software (OSS) examples from Ruby and RubyGems.
The first topic is CVE (Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures). I have published CVEs many times. But what exactly is a CVE? I'll provide a basic understanding of CVEs and explain how to detect and handle vulnerabilities in OSS.
Next, let's discuss package managers. Package managers play a critical role in the OSS ecosystem. I'll explain how to manage library dependencies in your application.
I'll share insights into how the Ruby and RubyGems core team works to keep our ecosystem safe. By the end of this talk, you'll have a better understanding of how to safeguard your code.
