Integration testing for salt states using aws ec2 container serviceSaltStack
A SaltConf16 use case talk by Steven Braverman of Dun & Bradstreet. Testing configuration changes for multiple server roles can be time consuming when real instances or legacy container systems are used. Applying configuration changes to each role in parallel can be difficult. So what's the best way to test configuration changes efficiently, quickly, and securely prior to applying them? See how an integrated test setup using AWS EC2 Container Service (ECS), AWS AutoScaling Group, and SaltStack simplifies the application of configuration changes and allows you to test configuration changes in parallel to reduce the time spent testing.

OSDC 2013 | Introduction into Chef by Andy HawkinsNETWAYS
This presentation will give an overview about what Chef is and how to access it. It will describe the typical use cases and architecture as well as Cookbooks, data bags and other concepts and will explain how to implement your CM solution. Finally it will show how to drive a successful Chef project.
The open source configuration management and automation framework Chef is used to configure, deploy and manage many large public and private installations of OpenStack and supports a wide variety of integration opportunities. Chef for OpenStack is a project based on the healthy exchange of code, ideas and documentation for deploying and operating OpenStack with Chef.
There is a tremendous amount of Chef-related activity in the OpenStack ecosystem. With involvement from AT&T, IBM, Rackspace, SUSE and many others there is an active community of collaboration between users, developers and operators. In addition to operating OpenStack, Chef provides integrations for deploying applications on top of OpenStack (and other cloud) deployments, including specialized tooling for testing and continuous integration environments.
OpenStack is a large and complex ecosystem, this session will highlight the resources available for operators, as well as the evolution and layout of the project and the roadmap going forward.
Chef for OpenStack - OpenStack Fall 2012 SummitMatt Ray
Chef for OpenStack is a collaborative project for the deployment and management of OpenStack clouds. This is an overview of the status of the project at the OpenStack Fall 2012 Summit
Chef is an open source configuration management and service integration automation tool that has been integral to a number of large successful OpenStack deployments. This talk will provide a brief introduction to Chef and why it frequently the configuration tool of choice for large deployments and discuss the use of Chef within the OpenStack ecosystem (development, testing, deploying and managing the installation). Chef also provides the ability to manage the instances running on top of Nova through the knife-openstack plugin.
SCALE12X Build a Cloud Day: Chef: The Swiss Army Knife of Cloud InfrastructureMatt Ray
Chef is an open source configuration management and automation framework used to configure, deploy and manage infrastructure of every type. Deploying to the cloud has made it easy to run large numbers of
servers and Chef makes it even easier to deploy to nearly every public and private cloud platform as well as virtualized and physical servers. This talk will provide a quick introduction to Chef and is intended for sysadmins and developers familiar with the concepts behind managing applications and infrastructure in the cloud, without diving too deeply into technical specifics.
TXLF: Chef- Software Defined Infrastructure Today & TomorrowMatt Ray
The open source configuration management and automation framework Chef is used to configure, deploy and manage infrastructure of every sort. In addition to managing Linux, Windows and many other operating systems; Chef may be used to manage network hardware and storage systems. This session will provide an overview of the concepts and capabilities of Chef and discuss upcoming projects and how they fit into the Chef ecosystem.
Achieving Infrastructure Portability with ChefMatt Ray
Deploying to the cloud has made it easy to run large numbers of servers, but users may become dissatisfied with their particular cloud platform for reasons such as price, support and performance. There are a number of vendor lock-ins to avoid, this talk discusses how to do so with the open source configuration management and infrastructure automation platform Chef. Chef makes it easy to deploy to nearly every public and private cloud platform as well as virtualized and physical servers. Chef may also be used to deploy cloud infrastructures such as OpenStack, Eucalyptus or CloudStack. By abstracting away the platform, infrastructure becomes portable and you are free to deploy wherever necessary.
Foreman - Process manager for applications with multiple componentsStoyan Zhekov
Splitting an app up in different processes is great for performance and scalability. The downside, however, is that it becomes much more complicated to get the app and all of its parts running.
Foreman is an attempt to make this easier. Using foreman you can declare the various processes that are needed to run your application using a Procfile.

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.

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.
PHP Frameworks: I want to break free (IPC Berlin 2024)Ralf Eggert
In this presentation, we examine the challenges and limitations of relying too heavily on PHP frameworks in web development. We discuss the history of PHP and its frameworks to understand how this dependence has evolved. The focus will be on providing concrete tips and strategies to reduce reliance on these frameworks, based on real-world examples and practical considerations. The goal is to equip developers with the skills and knowledge to create more flexible and future-proof web applications. We'll explore the importance of maintaining autonomy in a rapidly changing tech landscape and how to make informed decisions in PHP development.
This talk is aimed at encouraging a more independent approach to using PHP frameworks, moving towards a more flexible and future-proof approach to PHP development.

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.
