Synopsis: A discussion of the requirements for next generation network management identified in RFC 3535 which lead to the development of NETCONF and YANG.
The document provides an introduction to the ConfD Database (CDB), which is a hierarchical, ACID-compliant database used by ConfD to store configuration and operational data modeled with YANG. CDB stores data both in-memory and persistently on disk, supports transactions, replication, and automatic schema upgrades. Managed objects use CDB APIs to read configuration data at startup and subscribe to relevant configuration changes via a subscription socket.

Webinar: Applying REST to Network Management – An Implementor’s View Tail-f Systems
This webinar gives an introduction to the principles of REST, shows how it can be used to expose programmable APIs on network elements and provides some real world examples from our implementation.
The principles of Representational State Transfer (REST) have gained a strong following since they were described by Roy Fielding in his doctoral dissertation written in 2000. REST’s strength lies in its scalability and generality, allowing it to be used for many types of applications.
The industry has already seen a number of implementations of network management applications that use REST interfaces on the infrastructure management layer, notably OpenStack Quantum and the Sun Cloud API. As a vendor to the vendors, we’ve seen a significant increase in interest around having REST interfaces exposed directly on the network element, be they hardware based or virtual.

This document discusses C data types. C provides a variety of basic data types to store different types of data including integers, floating-point numbers, characters, and pointers. These data types allow programmers to declare variables that can hold specific types of values.

NETCONF is a protocol defined by the IETF to "install, manipulate, and delete the configuration of network devices". NETCONF operations are realized on top of a Remote Procedure Call (RPC) layer using an XML encoding and provides a basic set of operations to edit and query configuration on a network device.
Synopsis: Introduction to working with the NETCONF northbound interface in ConfD. Configuration of NETCONF using the confd.conf configuration file. NETCONF log and NETCONF trace log. Use of netconf-console for basic NETCONF testing.
Synopsis: A tutorial on the NETCONF protocol. The operations of the core NETCONF protocol are taught. This is followed by examination of traces of NETCONF sessions.
Tail-f Systems ConfD is a data-model driven network configuration and management system. It provides a core engine that supports multiple protocols like NETCONF, SNMP, REST, and CLIs. ConfD uses YANG data models to automatically render management interfaces and data stores. It also provides transactional configuration, validation, rollback management, and monitoring of operational data. ConfD aims to make network devices more manageable, programmable, and standards-compliant using model-driven development.
This document provides a tutorial on NETCONF and YANG, which are standards for network configuration and management. NETCONF was designed to address operators' requirements for easier network-wide configuration, validation of changes, and transactional management across multiple devices. It uses SSH for secure transport and XML encoding. YANG provides data models to define the configuration and state data. The tutorial covers the background and motivation for these standards, an overview of NETCONF operations and examples, and a demonstration of YANG data modeling. It explains how NETCONF enables network-wide atomic transactions, fulfilling a key operator need and improving the cost and complexity of network management.

Lee Barnes - Path to Becoming an Effective Test Automation Engineer.pdfleebarnesutopia
So… you want to become a Test Automation Engineer (or hire and develop one)? While there’s quite a bit of information available about important technical and tool skills to master, there’s not enough discussion around the path to becoming an effective Test Automation Engineer that knows how to add VALUE. In my experience this had led to a proliferation of engineers who are proficient with tools and building frameworks but have skill and knowledge gaps, especially in software testing, that reduce the value they deliver with test automation.
In this talk, Lee will share his lessons learned from over 30 years of working with, and mentoring, hundreds of Test Automation Engineers. Whether you’re looking to get started in test automation or just want to improve your trade, this talk will give you a solid foundation and roadmap for ensuring your test automation efforts continuously add value. This talk is equally valuable for both aspiring Test Automation Engineers and those managing them! All attendees will take away a set of key foundational knowledge and a high-level learning path for leveling up test automation skills and ensuring they add value to their organizations.
This talk will cover ScyllaDB Architecture from the cluster-level view and zoom in on data distribution and internal node architecture. In the process, we will learn the secret sauce used to get ScyllaDB's high availability and superior performance. We will also touch on the upcoming changes to ScyllaDB architecture, moving to strongly consistent metadata and tablets.

How information systems are built or acquired puts information, which is what they should be about, in a secondary place. Our language adapted accordingly, and we no longer talk about information systems but applications. Applications evolved in a way to break data into diverse fragments, tightly coupled with applications and expensive to integrate. The result is technical debt, which is re-paid by taking even bigger "loans", resulting in an ever-increasing technical debt. Software engineering and procurement practices work in sync with market forces to maintain this trend. This talk demonstrates how natural this situation is. The question is: can something be done to reverse the trend?

Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity serverAntonios Katsarakis
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).

Essentials of Automations: Exploring Attributes & Automation ParametersSafe Software
Building automations in FME Flow can save time, money, and help businesses scale by eliminating data silos and providing data to stakeholders in real-time. One essential component to orchestrating complex automations is the use of attributes & automation parameters (both formerly known as “keys”). In fact, it’s unlikely you’ll ever build an Automation without using these components, but what exactly are they?
Attributes & automation parameters enable the automation author to pass data values from one automation component to the next. During this webinar, our FME Flow Specialists will cover leveraging the three types of these output attributes & parameters in FME Flow: Event, Custom, and Automation. As a bonus, they’ll also be making use of the Split-Merge Block functionality.
You’ll leave this webinar with a better understanding of how to maximize the potential of automations by making use of attributes & automation parameters, with the ultimate goal of setting your enterprise integration workflows up on autopilot.
