OpenStack: Changing the Face of Service DeliveryMirantis
Keynote by Lew Tucker, VP and CTO of Cloud Computing at Cisco, at OpenStack Silicon Valley 2015.
As more companies move to software-driven infrastructures, OpenStack opens up new possibilities for traditional network service providers, media production, and content providers. Micro-services, and carrier-grade service delivery become the new watchwords for those companies looking to disrupt traditional players with virtualized services running on OpenStack.
During the OpenStack Tokyo Summit we provided an overview on how Workday started the production deployment with a very robust and efficient CI/CD process that it explained here.

OpenStack Australia Day - Sydney 2016
https://events.aptira.com/openstack-australia-day-sydney-2016/
Openstack is one of the largest OSS projects today with hundreds of commits flowing in daily. This high rate of change requires an advanced CI infrastructure. The purpose of the talk is to provide an overview of this infrastructure, explaining the role of each tool and the pipelines along which changes have to travel before they find their way into the approved Openstack codebase.
Attacking SDN infrastructure: Are we ready for the next gen networkingPriyanka Aash
"Software-Defined Networking (SDN), by decoupling the control logic from the closed and proprietary implementations of traditional network devices, allows researchers and practitioners to design new innovative network functions/protocols in a much easier, more flexible, and powerful way. This technology has gained significant attentions from both industry and academia, and it is now at its adoption stage. When considering the adoption of SDN, the security vulnerability assessment is an important process that must be conducted against any system before the deployment and arguably the starting point toward making it more secure.
In this briefing, we explore the attack surface of SDN by actually attacking each layer of SDN stack. The SDN stack is generally composed of control plane, control channel and data plane: The control plane implementations, which are commonly known as SDN controllers or Network OS, implementations are commonly developed and distributed as an open-source project. Of those various Network OS implementations, we attack the most prevalent ones, OpenDaylight (ODL) [1] and Open Network Operating System (ONOS) [2]. These Network OS projects are both actively led by major telecommunication and networking companies, and some of the companies have already deployed them to their private cloud or network [3, 4]. For the control channel, we also attack a well-known SDN protocol [5], OpenFlow. In the case of the data plane, we test some OpenFlow-enabled switch device products from major vendors, such as HP and Pica8.
Of the attacks that we disclose in this briefing, we demonstrate some of the most critical attacks that directly affect the network (service) availability or confidentiality. For example, one of the attack arbitrarily uninstalls crucial SDN applications running on an ODL(or ONOS) cluster, such as routing, forwarding, or even security service applications. Another attack directly manipulates logical network topology maintained by an ODL(or ONOS) cluster to cause network failures. In addition, we also introduce some of the SDN security projects. We briefly go over the design and implementation of Project Delta, which is an official open-source SDN penetration testing tool pushed forward by Open Networking Foundation Security group, and Security-Mode ONOS, a security extension that protects the core of ONOS from the possible threats of untrusted third-party applications.

SDN will simplify network operation. Our demo this week at TNC combines automated provisioning with network slicing. All the details are in this flyer.
A presentation on Software Defined Networking, its concepts and application in cloud computing. I gave this presentation at OSCON 2013 in Portland: http://www.oscon.com/oscon2013/public/schedule/detail/31391. It starts with an introduction about SDN and some key concepts from the whitepaper at the Open Networking Foundation (ONF), I explain how OpenFlow and SDN differ, openflow being a standard protocol to control network devices. I then go on to review the many controllers out there and introduce a few key ones like floodlight, opendaylight, nicira. I give an overview of SDN integration in cloudplatform; opennebula, openstack and cloudstack and then gave a quick demo of the OpenDayLight controller.
Comparing Open Source SDN Controllers, like OpenDaylight, OpenContrail, and ONOS is a challenge. Here, we’ll compare open source SDN Controllers. In a software-defined network (SDN), the SDN Controllers is the “brains” of the network. It is the strategic control point in the SDN network, relaying information to the switches/routers ‘below’ (via southbound APIs) and the applications and business logic ‘above’ (via northbound APIs).

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

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.

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.

4. HUAWEI TECHNOLOGIES CO., LTD. Huawei Confidential 4
What is a SDN Controller?
An SDN controller is an application in
software-defined networking (SDN)
that manages flow control to enable
intelligent networking.
SDN controllers are based on
protocols, such as OpenFlow, that
allow servers to tell switches where
to send packets.
5. HUAWEI TECHNOLOGIES CO., LTD. Huawei Confidential 5
Word about OpenStack
o OpenStack can be considered to
be not one project but several,
consisting of compute, storage
and networking.
o All three platform components
are managed by a dashboard
Web application.
o Combined, they can provide a
complete cloud network
operating system.
6. HUAWEI TECHNOLOGIES CO., LTD. Huawei Confidential 6
OpenStack module to talk about: Neutron
o Neutron was introduced to treat
networking as a separate service.
o Can run as an autonomous service,
exposes APIs with different
vendors, provides implementations
by appropriate extensions.
o In short, neutron is NOT SDN, but
in theory can transform anything
into SDN, Just provide a plug-in for
it.
9. HUAWEI TECHNOLOGIES CO., LTD. Huawei Confidential 9
OpenStack Neutron, with its plug-in architecture, provides the ability to integrate SDN
controllers into the OpenStack. provides centralized management, and facilitates the
network programmability using APIs.
OpenStack is relatively mature and is in use in production environments worldwide.
This enables organizations to take advantage of the network orchestration feature
without necessarily deploying a full-blown controller-led SDN solution.
Different integration options:
Completely eliminate RPC communications between the Neutron server and agents on the
compute node, with the SDN controller being the sole entity managing the network.
SDN controller manages only the physical switches, and the virtual switches can
be managed from the Neutron server directly.
12. HUAWEI TECHNOLOGIES CO., LTD. Huawei Confidential 12
OpenDaylight is integrated with Openstack via a Neutron plug-in.
Plug-in moves the complexity up the stack from OpenStack to OpenDaylight.
13. HUAWEI TECHNOLOGIES CO., LTD. Huawei Confidential 13
