Kubernetes is everywhere now, right? You see how companies are embracing this technology more and more, it’s like the Kardashians or Rosalía or TikTok; MAINSTREAM! BUT, as companies evolve and grow their container environments, they realize that stateful apps require more than a robust Kubernetes distribution, data is the key of their apps. Applications are as important as the data that they use. Managing 1M bank transactions is not the same as using bridge images, so you have to be very careful on how you control and use that data. Portworx is here to help with those problems. In this session, we will see how Portworx is able to manage volumes in the cloud with Kubernetes in seconds AND migrate that data from cluster to cluster in minutes, even a Disaster Recovery environment with ZERO data loss and NO downtime. Do you want to see it live? join this session!

Migrating Single-Tenant Applications to Multi-Tenant SaaS (ARC326-R1) - AWS r...Amazon Web Services
The appeal of SaaS has many ISVs interested in the power and value of delivering their solutions in a SaaS model. However, moving a single-tenant application to a multi-tenant environment can be daunting. In this session, we'll look at the obstacles that many ISVs face as they consider the move to a SaaS delivery model. We'll explore a wide range of transformation patterns that cover everything from lift-and-shift of your monolith to an incremental cutover to multi-tenant aware microservices, data, and infrastructure. Along the way, we'll highlight the challenges and technical considerations that shape your solution and allow you to better align your transformed solution with SaaS best practices. This includes looking at all the new architectural elements you'll need to add to your environment to support SaaS (onboarding, identity, billing, metering, analytics, and so on).
Have you ever wondered what the relative differences are between two of the more popular open source, in-memory data stores and caches? In this session, we will describe those differences and, more importantly, provide live demonstrations of the key capabilities that could have a major impact on your architectural Java application designs.

OpenShift 4, the smarter Kubernetes platformKangaroot
OpenShift 4 introduces automated installation, patching, and upgrades for every layer of the container stack from the operating system through application services.
SOA, service-oriented architectures, burst on the scene in the new millennium as the latest technology to support application growth. In concert with the Web, SOA ushered in new paradigms for structuring enterprise applications.
At the Forward Internet Group in London, we are implementing SOA in unusual ways. Rather than a few, businessrelated services being implemented per the original vision, we have developed systems made of myriads of very small, usually shortlived services.
In this workshop, we will start by exploring the evolution of SOA implementations by the speaker. In particular, lessons learned from each implementation will be discussed, and reapplication of these lessons on the next implementation. Challenges (and even failures) will be explicitly identified.
We will arrive at a model of the current systems: An environment of very small services that are loosely coupled into a complex system. We explore the demise of acceptance tests in this complex environment, and the clever replacement of business metrics in their stead.
Finally, we will conclude with the surprising programmer development process impacts of this architecture. Indeed, bedrock principles of Agile have been rendered unnecessary, something that equally surprised us. (Presented at Agile India 2013)
Navigating Disaster Recovery in Kubernetes and CNCF Crossplane Carlos Santana
In Crossplane, deploying resources using GitOps (ArgoCD) is straightforward, but disaster recovery is a different ballgame. When calamity hits, you can't just spin up a new Kubernetes cluster, point it to your Git repository, and expect a 'magical' restoration. This talk will demystify the notion that disaster recovery is 'magic' by exploring various strategies tailored for different levels of disasters using Velero.
Building IAM for OpenStack, presented at CIS (Cloud Identity Summit) 2015.
Discuss Identity Sources, Authentication, Managing Access and Federating Identities
In this session, we will show how to simplify the deployment, management, and operations of Kubernetes using Azure Container Service (AKS). We will demonstrate how to use Brigade - a framework for scripting together multiple tasks and executing them inside of containers and Kashti - an open source reporting dashboard web interface to easily manage and visualize their Brigade events and projects through a web browser. Additionally, we will provide comparisons of the wide variety of tools in the Kubernetes ecosystem for CI/CD, observability, storage and networking.
Performance Engineering Masterclass: Efficient Automation with the Help of SR...ScyllaDB
Henrik Rexed from Dynatrace walks through how to measure, validate and visualize these SLOs using Prometheus, an open observability platform, to provide concrete examples. Next, you learn how to automate your deployment using Keptn, a cloud-native event-based life-cycle orchestration framework. Discover how it can be used for multi-stage delivery, remediation scenarios, and automating production tasks.
Building Event Driven (Micro)services with Apache KafkaGuido Schmutz
What is a Microservices architecture and how does it differ from a Service-Oriented Architecture? Should you use traditional REST APIs to bind services together? Or is it better to use a richer, more loosely-coupled protocol? This talk will start with quick recap of how we created systems over the past 20 years and how different architectures evolved from it. The talk will show how we piece services together in event driven systems, how we use a distributed log (event hub) to create a central, persistent history of events and what benefits we achieve from doing so.
Apache Kafka is a perfect match for building such an asynchronous, loosely-coupled event-driven backbone. Events trigger processing logic, which can be implemented in a more traditional as well as in a stream processing fashion. The talk will show the difference between a request-driven and event-driven communication and show when to use which. It highlights how the modern stream processing systems can be used to hold state both internally as well as in a database and how this state can be used to further increase independence of other services, the primary goal of a Microservices architecture.
Monitoring modern applications using ElasticElasticsearch
Explore how Elastic can help you monitor and troubleshoot your applications in real time. Learn how to leverage the Elastic Stack to monitor multiple deployments and resolve challenges in your environment. After the session, you'll have access to a hands-on lab environment to practice these skills.
DevOps @ OpenShift Online
Presenter: Adam Miller
As the Release Engineer and a member of Operations team for OpenShift Online, a downstream consumer of OpenShift Origin and the largest Public implementation of OpenShift to date, Adam Miller will discuss what it's like behind the scenes at OpenShift.com and share lessons learned and bring his thoughts and feedback on the future direction of Origin.
As enterprises adopt cloud native infrastructure to run their applications, data security and compliance is becoming a crucial area of interest. When you run your containers in a public cloud, you want to make sure that the data being accessed is secure and that there are no bread crumbs left behind once the container exits. A common mistake many people make is to host-mount a volume directly inside a container, which leaves the container's data behind (directly on the host.)
In this session, we focus on the best practices for ensuring the security and compliance of your applications’ persistent volumes. But ensuring security is an on-going exercise. Ideally you would deploy intelligent software that can constantly monitor and audit the application environment for security holes and breaches.

wisecloud based open cloud implementation guidebizmerce
When it comes to the implementation of cloud service environment, it is always difficult to plan how to build the Cloud service environment into our company, IDC and school. Although many companies move away from their dependency of vendor to build the environment with the use of customizing and economical Open Source Project, it seems that they are having difficulties in deciding which open source to use, on how to configure it and how to utilize it, which requires times and costs. Thus, we’d like to share our know-how of building Open Cloud using WiseCLOUD CMP with people who look forward to introduction of Cloud and building the Open Cloud. After discussing what Open Cloud is and introducing Open Source Cloud Project that is essential to the construction, we will share with you a representative example of Open Cloud configuration and how to utilize WiseCLOUD CMP for Open Cloud.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

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

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.
