Net flix embracingfailure re-invent2014-141113085858-conversion-gate02~Eric Principe
This document discusses Netflix's approach to embracing failure through fault injection testing. Netflix has over 50 million members across 50+ countries and streams over 1 billion hours of content per month. To ensure high availability, Netflix designs its complex distributed systems for failure by implementing exception handling, fault tolerance, fallbacks, auto-scaling, and redundancy. However, testing failures at such a large scale is challenging. Netflix developed several "monkey" tools that randomly inject failures like instance reboots or availability zone outages to validate system resilience. More advanced tools like Fault Injection Testing (FIT) allow simulating specific failure scenarios by injecting errors or latency at various points. This helps Netflix continuously validate assumptions and discover issues to further improve availability.

[WSO2] Deployment Synchronizer for Deployment Artifact Synchronization Betwee...Kasun Gajasinghe
Setting up a cluster is important when developing enterprise software and deploying them in production environments. Distributing deployment artifacts & related metadata to all nodes in a homogeneous cluster is a typical requirement for a clustered deployment of any middleware platform. In such a cluster, all nodes should contain the deployed artifacts as well as the related metadata.
The Deployment Synchronizer (DepSync) is the mechanism used in the WSO2 platform for distributing these artifacts and metadata across all nodes in the cluster. It provides the ability to synchronize data between the worker nodes of a product cluster. When used with the WSO2 Application Server, or the WSO2 ESB, you can synchronize your deployable artifacts like web services, and web applications etc. across the cluster nodes. In addition, with the latest WSO2 Carbon 4 release, WSO2 provides the ability to synchronize service metadata which includes service policies, transports, and service-type specific data. Now you only have to deploy and configure services in one node - called the manager. Then, DepSync will replicate those to other nodes - workers.
In this presentation, we present how this is done in the WSO2 Cloud-enabled middleware platform. Typical deployment artifacts will include webapps, JAXWS/JAXRS apps, data services, proxy services, and BPEL processes . The WSO2 platform also natively supports multi-tenancy. Tenants & tenant artifacts are loaded on demand. We will demonstrate how DepSync works efficiently with multi-tenancy.

2. • This is the second in a series of presenta0ons dedicated to SAP
Landscape Virtualiza0on Management (LVM)
• This document provides a quick overview of how you can
customize LVM with custom opera0ons and hooks and is aimed
at system administrators responsible for configuring and
opera0ng SAP LVM
• This document describes how this can be achieved in a UNIX
environment but can be easily adapted for the Windows
plaKorm
• In this presenta0on, we will show you how to create custom
opera0ons and hooks for managing a Red Hat® cluster
containing the SAP Central Services (SCS)
Introduc3on
3. Overview
• SAP LVM manages SAP instances and databases as standard
using the SAP Host Agent
• Out-‐of-‐the box opera0ons include “stop”, “start”, “mass stop”,
“mass start”
• SAP LVM can be extended to include custom opera0ons that
can be associated with instances and hosts
• Custom opera0ons are defined in LVM via a Provider
Implementa0on and Custom Opera0on and Hooks defini0on
• Custom opera0ons are registered with the SAP Host Agent
using a configura0on file
4. Provider
Implementa3on
• The Provider Implementa0on defines the link between LVM and
the host agent and describes how the custom opera0ons are
implemented
• In this example, the provider implementa0on
“LVM_CustomOpera0on_ClusterAdm” will be defined
• The Provider Implementa0on must include the custom
parameter OPERATION which LVM will supply to the host agent
when triggered
• The host agent configura0on file defini0on for the provider
implementa0on will call the Korn script with the $[PARAM-‐
OPERATION] parameter
6. Custom
Opera3on
Defini3ons
• The custom opera0on “Freeze” is used to freeze the Red Hat cluster
so other opera0ons can take place without a cluster failover
7. Custom
Opera3on
Defini3ons
• The important fields to note here are the “Name” and “Bu^on
Group” – Freeze and Cluster Opera0on respec0vely
• The custom parameter “Opera0on” has been set to FREEZE
which will be passed to the host agent and Korn script via the
configura0on file
• The “Name” and “Bu^on Group” appear on the host opera0on
screen in LVM
• Clicking the Cluster Opera0on bu^on triggers the custom
opera0on and the associated Korn script
• Similar custom opera0ons are created for “Unfreeze” and
“Relocate”
8. Custom
Hook
Defini3ons
• The custom hook is needed to intercept SAP system stop and start requests
to prepare the cluster (freeze/unfreeze) so that cluster monitoring does not
incorrectly start or stop the instance whilst valid stop/start opera0ons are
being performed
9. Host
Agent
Registered
Script
• For each Provider Implementa0on a standard host agent configura0on file
with extension “.conf” must be created in the “opera0ons.d” sub-‐directory
of /usr/sap/hostctrl/exe
• For the cluster management custom opera0ons the sample configura0on
file “ClusterAdm.conf” would look as below
• The “Name” must match the name of the Registered Script on the Provider
Implementa0on in LVM
• The $[PARAM-‐OPERATION] can be seen being passed as the first parameter
to the Korn script, indica0ng the custom opera0on being requested by LVM
