Step-by-Step: APEX Installation on Tomcat (Windows Server 2016)sheriframadan18
This is a practical workshop about deploying the Oracle APEX application in the Apache Tomcat Server from your local machine.
Apache Tomcat, being a Java-based application requires Java to be installed in your local and you will be learning how to set up Java to start the server without any issues.
The setup process will be smooth as Apache Tomcat is a lightweight application. With Tomcat being installed, you will learn the connection between APEX-ORDS-Tomcat.
You will get to know the system requirements for installing Oracle APEX.
You will learn the installation process of Oracle Database, APEX, and ORDS on your local machine. The installation will help you to know the role of ORDS and which is necessary for deployment in Apache Tomcat.

Deep Dive on GSLB with VMware NSX Advanced Load Balancer (Avi Networks)Avi Networks
Watch webinar on-demand here https://info.avinetworks.com/webinars/gslb-vmware-nsx-load-balancer
Global Server Load Balancing (GSLB) is becoming increasingly critical to ensure multi-site availability and fast app response for geo-distributed users. In a previous webinar, we talked about the importance of multi-cloud GSLB.
Now, we will present a step-by-step deep dive on how Avi Networks, now part of VMware, supports GSLB including:
- DNS / GSLB 101 and the object model for GSLB
- GSLB features in VMware NSX Advanced Load Balancer (Avi Networks)
- Use cases including active/active, active/standby deployments and failure handling
The Network File System (NFS) Version 4 is a distributed file system similar to previous versions of NFS in its straightforward design, simplified error recovery, and independence of transport protocols and operating systems for file access in a heterogeneous network.
NFS, was developed by Sun Microsystems to provide distributed transparent file access in a heterogeneous network. It achieves this by being relatively simple in design and not relying too heavily on any particular file system model.
This presentation is based on the paper of “The NFS Version 4 Protocol” written by Brian Pawlowski, Spencer Shepler, Carl Beame, Brent Callaghan, Michael Eisler, David Noveck, David Robinson and Robert Thurlow.

Where We're Headed and Where NSX Fits InScott Lowe
In this presentation, I take a look at some broad industry trends and how they are driving the need for a network virtualization solution such as VMware NSX.
This presentation provides an introductory overview of Linux networking options, including network namespaces, VLAN interfaces, MACVLAN interfaces, and virtual Ethernet (veth) interfaces.
Why is it that cloud computing operational models haven't taken hold more fully in enterprise IT? In this presentation, I'll explore the reasons I think are behind the problem, and what can be done to address these reasons.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!
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.

SRM versus Stretched Clusters: Choosing the Right Solution
1. Before we start
• Get involved!
• If
you use Twitter, feel free to tweet about this session (use
hashtag #AusVMUG or #VMUG)
•I encourage you to take photos or videos of today’s session
and share them online
• Thispresentation will be made available online after the
event
2. Comparing SRM with
Stretched Clusters
Finding the right solution for your organisation’s needs
Scott Lowe, VCDX 39
vExpert, Author, Blogger, Geek
http://blog.scottlowe.org / Twitter: @scott_lowe
3. Agenda
• Quick review of terminology
• Comparing SRM and vMSC requirements
• Comparing SRM and vMSC advantages
• Comparing SRM and vMSC disadvantages
• Mixing SRM and vMSC
4. RPO versus RTO
• RPO = Recovery Point Objective
• RPO is a measure of how much data loss the organisation is
willing to sustain
• RTO = Recovery Time Objective
• RTO is a measure of how long of a wait the organisation is
willing to tolerate before recovery is complete
5. DR versus DA
• DA = Disaster avoidance
• Seeks to protect apps/data before a disaster occurs
• Howoften do you know before a disaster is going to
occur?
• DR = Disaster recovery
• Seeks to recover apps/data after a disaster occurs
• Think of DA as vMotion and DR as vSphere HA
6. Requirements for vMSC
• Some form of supported synchronous active/active storage
architecture
• Stretched Layer 2 connectivity between sites
• 622 Mbps bandwidth (minimum) between sites
• Lessthan 5 ms latency between sites (10 ms with vSphere 5
Enterprise Plus/Metro vMotion)
•A single vCenter Server instance
7. Requirements for SRM
• Some form of supported storage replication (synchronous or
asynchronous)
• Layer 3 connectivity
• Nominimum inter-site bandwidth requirements (driven by
SLA/RPO/RTO)
• No
maximum latency between sites (driven by SLA/RPO/
RTO)
• At least two vCenter Server instances
8. Advantages of vMSC
• Thepossibility of non-disruptive workload migration (disaster
avoidance)
• No need to deal with issues changing IP addresses
• Potentialfor running active/active data centres and more
easily balancing workloads between them
• Typically a near-zero RPO with RTO of minutes
• Requires only a single vCenter Server instance
9. Advantages of SRM
• Defined startup orders (with prerequisites)
• No need for stretched Layer 2 connectivity (but supported)
• Theability to simulate workload mobility without affecting
production
• Supports
multiple vCenter Server instances (including in
Linked Mode)
10. Disadvantages of vMSC
• Greaterphysical networking complexity due to stretched
Layer 2 connectivity requirement
• Greater
cost resulting from higher-end networking
equipment, more bandwidth, active/active storage solution
• No ability to test workload mobility
• Operational overhead from management of DRS host affinity
groups
• Supports only a single vCenter Server instance
11. Disadvantages of SRM
• Typically higher RPO and RTO than stretched clusters
• Workload mobility is always disruptive
• Requires at least two vCenter Server instances
• Operationaloverhead from managing protection groups and
protection plans
12. What about a mixed
architecture?
• It
can be done, but it has its own set of design
considerations
• For any given workload, it's an “either/or” situation
14. Additional Resources
• BCO2479 from VMworld 2011 also takes up comparing
SRM and vMSC
• Any of my stretched cluster presentations (all available on my
site, blog.scottlowe.org) discuss pros/cons and design
considerations
