Selecting implementing and teaching a web scale discovery toolChris Sweet
In the fall of 2010, Illinois Wesleyan University reviewed all the major web-scale discovery tools available to libraries. We chose to be a beta-test site for EBSCO’s Discovery Service (EDS) and conducted usability testing with students. We eventually purchased EDS and did a full roll-out this past fall semester.
This presentation will address the philosophy behind web-scale discovery along with our experiences regarding selection, testing, implementation, evaluation, and teaching. The presentation will also include live search demonstrations using Wesleyan’s EDS interface.
All of us think that we can get all pages with the help of Google, MSN or Yahoo. However, we have large data that is deep, hidden and not visible to us. What is this invisibility. How to make it available to every one: we will see that in this presentation.

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
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).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle.

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.
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.

Connector Corner: Automate dynamic content and events by pushing a buttonDianaGray10
Here is something new! In our next Connector Corner webinar, we will demonstrate how you can use a single workflow to:
Create a campaign using Mailchimp with merge tags/fields
Send an interactive Slack channel message (using buttons)
Have the message received by managers and peers along with a test email for review
But there’s more:
In a second workflow supporting the same use case, you’ll see:
Your campaign sent to target colleagues for approval
If the “Approve” button is clicked, a Jira/Zendesk ticket is created for the marketing design team
But—if the “Reject” button is pushed, colleagues will be alerted via Slack message
Join us to learn more about this new, human-in-the-loop capability, brought to you by Integration Service connectors.

2. Understanding Federated Search Imagine all of the resources available on the web could be represented as this grey box… All Web Resources
3. Understanding Federated Search Searchable Web “ Deep” or “invisible’ Web Using a search engine like Google merely “skims the surface’, providing results from the searchable web. Experts estimate the invisible, or deep, web as being 500 times bigger than the searchable, or surface, Web. Google All Web Resources
4. Understanding Federated Search Imagine that all the education content on the web is represented by the light blue box. A Google search will still only return results from the surface… Searchable Web “ Deep” or “invisible’ Web All Web Resources All Web Education Resources
5. Understanding Federated Search Searchable Web “ Deep” or “invisible’ Web … unless we use the search engine located within the particular portal or repository where we know a lot of educational resources exist. This will allow us to burrow to the depths of the collection held in that repository, or indexed by that portal - but still doesn’t let us see across all of the educational resources. Google All Web Resources All Web Education Resources Ed. Portal
6. Understanding Federated Search Searchable Web “ Deep” or “invisible’ Web … unless the repository or portal we are using has an alliance with another repository that allows us to federate our search across both… so that entering the search terms in one engine will search both repositories. Google All Web Resources All Web Education Resources Ed. Portal Alliances
7. Understanding Federated Search Searchable Web “ Deep” or “invisible’ Web … and another.. Google All Web Resources All Web Education Resources Ed. Portal Alliances
8. Understanding Federated Search Searchable Web “ Deep” or “invisible’ Web … and another… thus allowing us to search the deep or invisible part of the web across a number of specialist education portals and repositories. Google All Web Resources All Web Education Resources Ed. Portal Alliances
