This document discusses the role of GitOps in IT strategy and hands-off operations. It notes that IT requirements are growing exponentially but staffing is not, so efficiency must increase. GitOps provides an approach to hands-off operations through automation of compliance, upgrades, backups and more using standardized tooling. Adopting GitOps drives automation and helps meet many goals of IT strategy by reducing manual work and dependencies.

Compliant by Default - Continuous Delivery at DB Systel - 16.10.2018 - Schlom...
This document discusses continuous delivery at DB Systel. It argues that continuous delivery improves company efficiency and ability to deliver customer value. Continuous delivery requires a customer obsession, devops approach, use of cloud platforms, and treating all roles like developers as "customers" by providing tools that are quick, simple, tested, secure and compliant. The result is improved productivity for all teams and a focus on continuous delivery through automation. It recommends starting with goals and identifying impediments to replace with automation, while ensuring company concerns around security and compliance are addressed.
Automated Governance - Continous Lifecycle 2019 - Schlomo Schapiro
Video: https://youtu.be/U4cHbXYy1FQ
How to combine traditional IT governance with continuous delivery? Not At All!
A highly automated continuous deployment environment creates a whole new world of challenges for companies to meet their compliance and governance requirements. Traditional - manual - processes don’t manage to keep up with quick and frequent releases.
The solution to this conflict of interests is the automation of all compliance checks and the automated certification of every software delivery into production. Sounds obvious and simple, but it is difficult to implement.
The talk shows how we tackle this topic at DB Systel and how we create solutions for automated compliance certification.

The GitOps Journey - Schlomo Schapiro - Berlin DevOps Meetup 2021-11
I will show why GitOps is a major waypoint in the journey from old-style Dev vs. Ops data center operations towards a truly automated hands-off operations future. GitOps is the technological core required for compliance automation, large-scale operations, and lowering the cost of compliance & governance as well as lowering the cost of internal tooling.
GitOps will give us a future, where we all take a step back, watch the bots do the admin job, and where we Dev, Ops, everybody work on improving the bots and invent new automation solutions.

Compliant by Default - Digitaler Wandel - 14.08.2019 - Schlomo Schapiro
Wie passt klassische IT Governance zu Continuous Delivery? Gar nicht!
Eine hochgradig automatisierte Continuous Deployment Welt stellt die Firma vor ganz neue Herausforderungen im Bereich Compliance und Governance. Klassische - manuelle - Prozesse kommen den schnellen und häufigen Releases gar nicht mehr hinterher. Die Lösung ist die Automation aller Governance prüfungen und die automatisierte Zertifizierung jeder Softwarelieferung. Das klingt banal und einfach, ist im Detail jedoch nicht einfach umzusetzen.
Der Vortrag zeigt am konkreten Beispiel der DB Systel, wie wir das Thema angehen und Lösungen für die automatisierte Zertifizierung geschaffen haben.
The Devops Driving School - DevOps Gathering 2019 - Schlomo Schapiro
How to convince your company that DevOps is a transitional mode of operations and the means to a goal instead of goal in itself. What comes after DevOps is “done”?
DevOps is like learning to drive and a “DevOps Team” is like a motor cycle driving school. You learn in theory and practice to survive amongst “live traffic”, where other road participants are not very considerate. You have to comply with a lot of regulations. From early on you drive your motor cycle alone and the driving instructor follows you in his car keeping a safe distance. He talks with you via radio and tells you where to pay attention and how to drive. But you drive all alone and by yourself - amongst live traffic. If you hit a tree and die, it is your own fault. If you cause a crash, it is your own fault. Same about learning DevOps. You are responsible for your product in production with “live traffic” and real customers. If you crash your server, it your own fault. If your code quality causes harm to the company, it is your own fault. Your DevOps Coach sits next to you and talks to you while you type away at your screen, like a driving instructor. In the end you prove your driving skills, get your license and ride happily singing full speed into the sunset. Same about DevOps, after a training period you work alone. You build it - you run it. You go full speed ahead and deliver value over value. Who has a bumper sticker claiming “I have a driving license”? That’s why “DevOps Team” is a passing thing and once you qualify you are just an Engineering Team who are fully responsible for their product end to end. No need to put a claim to what is normal, because DevOps is normal.

The Role of GitOps in IT Strategy - June 2021 - Schlomo Schapiro
See https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_uDzXmbiUIg for German-language talk to these slides.
What is the role of GitOps in IT strategy? This talk gives an overview and puts GitOps into the context of current challenges in IT strategy.
Main aspects are continuous delivery, policy as code, automated governance, compliant-by-default work environments, acceptable means of compliance and a comprehensive automation of all development and operations related processes with the goal of true hands-off operations.
The result places GitOps as a major building block of any modern IT strategy. GitOps helps building essential key IT capabilities. It creates the motivation to truly “fix the basics” via sustainable solutions to enable creating higher level automation solutions. With GitOps engineers can focus much more on business value and spend less effort on boring IT topics.

Kubernetes: Shifting the mindset from servers to containers
With Kubernetes pods and containers several fundamental assumptions of server operations don't apply any more. Some Linux services like SSH even disappear and are provided by Kubernetes instead.
This talk explores the mindset shift that developers and admins of Linux servers have to do in order to fully take advantage of the power of a Kubernetes cluster:
* Servers turn into pods
* Linux application services turn into containers
* Standard services like cron and SSH disappear completely
* How to separate between initialization, run and maintenance phases
* Building pods with multiple containers that work together
Following practical examples from real migration projects participants gain a new understanding of the role of services, init scripts, cron jobs and other standard Linux components. Key takeaways are a better understanding of how to model a complex system on top of Kubernetes and practical tips for migrating servers into Kubernetes containers.
Successfully adopting Kubernetes requires a big change in how developers and admins think about servers - bigger than any change before. Bigger than the change brought by VMs. This talk shows why it pays to change traditional concepts and to embrace the new world of Linux services modularization that Kubernetes stands for.
See Using Kubernetes with Multiple Containers for Initialization and Maintenance (http://blog.schlomo.schapiro.org/2017/06/using-kubernetes-with-multiple.html) for more information and a demo.

Open Source Contribution Policy at DB Systel - Schlomo Schapiro - AK Open Sou...
DB Systel established an open source contribution policy to formalize how employees can contribute to open source projects. The policy was designed to balance open source participation with legal and compliance requirements. It establishes an Open Source Steward to govern the contribution process and requires line manager and product owner approval for contributions, with an additional approval for large contributions. The policy aims to standardize the contribution workflow, track contributions centrally, and allow for early and frequent releases through a public review process. Next steps include defining small contributions that don't require review, whitelisting approved projects, and adapting the policy based on experience.
GUUG FFG 2017 - DevOps for Everybody - A Workplace Strategy for the Digital Age
How should our internal IT look in order to be a driving force for a company’s success in the digital age? This proposal is based on all my learnings from the previous 15 years and especially the Agile and DevOps revolution in IT. It takes the concept of a Product Development Organization to apply everywhere and provides a sure path to increase productivity and improve culture through technology. Transforming Corporate IT into a Workplace product takes internal IT out of the proverbial basement and puts it in the front of the internal value chain. Most of the standard tooling for product development also fits the Workplace product. This proposal is written for a typical company that employs both modern web technologies like G Suite and cloud services as well as traditional technologies like Microsoft Office and data centers.

Cloud Native Demystified: Build Once, Run Anywhere!
This document discusses building cloud native applications that can run anywhere. It defines cloud native as using containers, microservices, and DevOps processes. It outlines common cloud native scenarios and Microsoft's contributions to open source projects like Kubernetes. It discusses how containers allow applications to run on platforms like Azure PaaS, Kubernetes, and self-hosted clusters. The document demonstrates deploying containerized applications to these platforms and managing clusters with Azure Arc. It advises starting simply and growing complexity as needed, using Kubernetes for its portability benefits but otherwise preferring simpler platforms when possible.
DevOps & Cloud-Native for Enterprise Architects Not Dead Yet
This document discusses how enterprise architects can adapt to DevOps and cloud-native approaches. It argues that the role of the CIO and enterprise architects is to ensure the quality and future performance of the company's overall IT system. It also discusses how to create a "gardening culture" where product teams have autonomy over their services but IT ensures standards. The document advocates establishing platform teams to govern common services and tools so individual teams can focus on their products.

Delivering the Composable Enterprise
Enterprise IT needs some fundamental changes in perspective. Learning lessons from two new service-oriented approaches - APIs and microservices - we find that enterprises need to shift their perspective from applications to services and from projects to products.
Presented at APIdays Sydney on February 11th 2015.
Visibuild
How do you experience architecture? Do you fly around through the air, cutting away walls and roofs when convenient? Most people do not do it that way. No, architecture is experienced with two feet on the ground by us mere mortals. Visibuild offers architects and artists the opportunity to visualize 3d environments that are interactive – that you can walk around in.
AD507 –Leveraging the Power of Object
This document outlines an agenda for a presentation on leveraging object-oriented programming in LotusScript. The presentation will be delivered by Jens-B. Augustiny from LIGONET GmbH and Bill Buchan from HADSL. It will introduce object-oriented programming and techniques like encapsulation and class extension. It will also showcase an object-oriented project example and leave time for questions. The intended audience is LotusScript developers looking to improve their coding practices.
2014-QCon-SF PaaS for the new Cloud Era
Teams using IaaS and traditional application servers to deploy cloud applications benefit on-demand efficiencies, but continue to spend significant effort on application delivery, including deployment, scaling, and governance. PaaS solutions have helped automate some functions, but still falls short. Examining how to address these challenges with a PaaS, this session will also review the architectural approach of the WSO2 Private PaaS to be cloud native, providing polyglot language and environment support, and ability to run on multiple runtimes.
BethClip Investors Pitch Deck (widescreen)
Rashid Aliyev, CEO of BethClip, presented on the company's clipboard synchronization product. BethClip allows users to copy text, images or files on one device and securely paste the content on other devices. The solution addresses the lack of a rapid and secure way to share data between devices on different operating systems. BethClip offers free and premium subscription plans, and generates revenue from subscriptions, corporate clients, advertising and sale of usage statistics and data. The company is currently fundraising and seeking acquisition by larger tech companies.
Harnessing the Power of Customer Feedback
Customer feedback is not a moment in time; it's a continuous process. In this presentation, Aradhana Vaidya, Cloud Rendering Engineer, talks about being guided by your product vision and the real problems for real people that are you trying to solve. Use your product knowledge, and customer feedback and market trends to decide where to go next.
Better Software is Better than Worse Software - Alexandre Vasseur
This document summarizes Alexandre Vasseur's presentation on building better software through Pivotal's methodology, tools, and platform. The presentation covers:
1) How Pivotal helps enterprises transform by increasing developer productivity and operational efficiency through a cloud-native approach.
2) Case studies of companies like Orange France that saw developers focus more on customers using Pivotal to develop apps faster.
3) How Pivotal's platform-as-a-product approach removes toil through automation, provides a consistent platform across clouds, and allows for a consistent product development process.
What is cloud native and why should I care?
The document describes a company's multiple attempts to transition to cloud native technologies. It introduces Jenny, a technical manager, who has three "wakeup calls" as past approaches fail to successfully modernize their systems. They first try adopting new tools but deliver only incremental changes. A second attempt plans a full rewrite but delivers even less. With an ultimatum from the CEO, they work with an expert to design a new approach using cloud native patterns to gradually transition while maintaining delivery of features. This balanced approach allows them to successfully innovate while gaining proficiency in the new technologies over time.

Cloud Native Empowered Culture
Automation can only be as good as the people who use it. High trust cultures which empower, minimize blame and connect people with intrinsic motivations will dominate the cloud native landscape. The cloud was not built with ITIL. Heavy change control processes attempted to minimize incidents but typically drain the enthusiasm of the people while resulting in brittle systems which fail catastrophically. Self service policy enforcing automation makes doing the right thing easy and expedient allowing cloud natives to focus on delivering for the business instead of managing politics and signatures.

Better Software is Better than Worse Software - Alexandre Vasseur
This document summarizes Alexandre Vasseur's presentation on building better software through Pivotal's methodology, tools, and platform. The presentation covers:
1) How Pivotal helps enterprises transform by increasing developer productivity and operational efficiency through a cloud-native approach.
2) Case studies of companies like Orange France that saw developers focus more on customers using Pivotal to develop apps faster.
3) How Pivotal's platform-as-a-product approach removes toil through automation, provides a consistent platform across clouds, and allows for a consistent product development process.
What is cloud native and why should I care?
The document describes a company's multiple attempts to transition to cloud native technologies. It introduces Jenny, a technical manager, who has three "wakeup calls" as past approaches fail to successfully modernize their systems. They first try adopting new tools but deliver only incremental changes. A second attempt plans a full rewrite but delivers even less. With an ultimatum from the CEO, they work with an expert to design a new approach using cloud native patterns to gradually transition while maintaining delivery of features. This balanced approach allows them to successfully innovate while gaining proficiency in the new technologies over time.

Cloud Native Empowered Culture
Automation can only be as good as the people who use it. High trust cultures which empower, minimize blame and connect people with intrinsic motivations will dominate the cloud native landscape. The cloud was not built with ITIL. Heavy change control processes attempted to minimize incidents but typically drain the enthusiasm of the people while resulting in brittle systems which fail catastrophically. Self service policy enforcing automation makes doing the right thing easy and expedient allowing cloud natives to focus on delivering for the business instead of managing politics and signatures.

The Role of GitOps in IT-Strategy v2 - July 2022 - Schlomo Schapiro
What is the role of GitOps in IT strategy? This talk gives an overview and puts GitOps into the context of current challenges in IT strategy.
Main aspects are continuous delivery, policy as code, automated governance, compliant-by-default work environments, acceptable means of compliance and a comprehensive automation of all development and operations related processes with the goal of true hands-off operations.
The result places GitOps as a major building block of any modern IT strategy. GitOps helps building essential key IT capabilities. It creates the motivation to truly “fix the basics” via sustainable solutions to enable creating higher level automation solutions. With GitOps engineers can focus much more on business value and spend less effort on boring IT topics.
The Role of GitOps in IT-Strategy - November 2021 - Schlomo Schapiro - Contin...
GitOps is an approach to infrastructure automation that uses Git as the single source of truth for declarative infrastructure definitions and configurations, and uses continuous integration and delivery tools to ensure that running systems match what is defined in Git. Adopting GitOps practices can help address many IT strategy requirements by driving greater automation of IT processes. This includes enabling hands-off operations where there are no manual changes to production environments and compliance and governance are automated. GitOps provides an ideal interface for compliance automation through a centralized place where all changes are passed in a machine-readable format.
Schlomo Schapiro - Why I like to use the proprietary Cloud services without f...
The document discusses why the author prefers to use proprietary cloud services without additional abstractions. It notes that cloud services provide fully managed infrastructure including server hardware, storage, networking, operating systems, and more. This allows the author to focus on developing applications quickly without having to manage complex infrastructure themselves. The author believes additional abstractions are not needed and adds unnecessary complexity when the cloud services already provide native APIs and tools to control the infrastructure and deploy applications.
DevOps ist normal - DevOps Essentials 2019 - Schlomo Schapiro
Video: https://vimeo.com/348556177
DevOps ist normal – oder etwa doch nicht? Wer kann das schon für seine Firma guten Gewissens sagen?
Während sich die übliche DevOps-Diskussion um das Wie dreht, adressiert Schlomo die Frage, wann DevOps normal geworden ist und was dafür passieren muss, damit alle dieser Meinung sind.
Von einer neuen DevOps-Definition ausgehend stellt der Vortrag eine einfache Argumentationskette für DevOps vor, in der die DevOps-Transformation mit Fahren lernen verglichen wird. So wie es heutzutage normal ist, dass die meisten Erwachsenen einen Führerschein haben, so normal sollte DevOps in jeder IT sein. Diese Analogie lässt sich auch in einem Aufzugsgespräch verwenden, um das Management von der Normalität des DevOps-Ansatzes zu überzeugen.
Mit der DevOps-Definition gelingt es den Teilnehmern, jede DevOps-Diskussion zu gewinnen und damit DevOps zur neuen Normalität zu machen. Am konkreten Beispiel der DB Systel zeigt der Vortrag, wie mit dem Thema DevOps-Teams konstruktiv umgegangen werden kann.

Root for all - measuring DevOps adoption - microxchg 2018 - Schlomo Schapiro
Root for All - Measuring DevOps Adoption
DevOps is about culture and mindset more than about technology - but how do you measure success? How do you know if your company really "does" DevOps?
It turns out that root access to production servers is not only the proverbial holy grail but actually serves as a fact-based measure for the trust and automation levels in an organization.
This talk explores the connection between root access and automation on one hand and DevOps mindsets, cross functional teams and shared responsibility on the other hand. Based on practical experiences, the talk provides concrete suggestions for achieving true DevOps happiness. As a result you will know why in the end there is no harm at all in granting root access to everybody.
Key takeaways are solid arguments that you can use to convince your boss and your peers to take a different approach on root access demonstrating how shared responsibility works for real.
See Root for All - A DevOps Measure? (http://blog.schlomo.schapiro.org/2017/06/root-for-all-devops-measure.html) for more background information.
OSDC 2016 - Hybrid Cloud - A Cloud Migration Strategy
Do you use Cloud? Why? What about the 15 year legacy of your data center? How many Enterprise vendors tried to sell you their "Hybrid Cloud" solution? What actually is a Hybrid Cloud?
Cloud computing is not just a new way of running servers or Docker containers. The interesting part of any Cloud offering are managed services that provide solutions to difficult problems. Prime examples are messaging (SNS/SQS), distributed storage (S3), managed databases (RDS) and especially turn-key solutions like managed Hadoop (EMR).
Hybrid Cloud is usually understood as a way to unify or standardize server hosting across private data centers and Public Cloud vendors. Some Hybrid Cloud solutions even go as far as providing a unified API that abstracts away all the differences between different platforms. Unfortunately that approach focuses on the lowest common denominator and effectively prevents using the advanced services that each Cloud vendor also offers. However, these services are the true value of Public Cloud vendors.
Another approach to integrating Public Cloud and private data centers is using services from both worlds depending on the problems to solve. Don't hide the cloud technologies but make it simple to use them - both from within the data center and the cloud instances. Create a bridge between the old world of the data center and the new world of the Public Cloud. A good bridge will motivate your developers to move the company to the cloud.
Based upon recent developments at ImmobilienScout24, this talk tries to suggest a sustainable Cloud migration strategy from private data centers through a Hybrid Cloud into the AWS Cloud.
Bridging the security model of the data center with the security model of AWS.
Integrating the AWS identity management (IAM) with the existing servers in the data center.
Secure communication between services running in the data center and in AWS.
Deploying data center servers and Cloud resources together.
Service discovery for services running both in the data center and AWS.
Most of the tools used are Open Source and this talk will show how they come together to support this strategy:
AWS credential provider for employees and data center servers: http://immobilienscout24.github.io/afp/
Cloud Formation automation: https://github.com/ImmobilienScout24/cfn-sphere
Compliancy with European privacy laws: https://github.com/ImmobilienScout24/aws-monocyte
WARNING is a waste of my time
How many log levels do you know? How many log levels are actually useful? What is the practical difference between WARNING and NOTICE?
I believe that in a world of automation, I need only two log levels:
ERROR and everthing else.
ERROR means that I as a human should take action. Everything else is irrelevant for me. All the other log levels are IMHO a remnant of the past from the last century. This ignite talk looks at the WARNING problem from both a Dev and an Ops perspective in order to find a useful definition for the age of automation.

SE 2015 DevOps Risk Mitigation - Test Driven Infrastructure
DevOps has successfully conquered many IT departments and brought a new era of collaboration. With DevOps developers gain more control over the production environment and can do more on their own. Admins learn to code their infrastruture and to build delivery chains.
But what about the risk of allowing more people to bring changes into production? Advanced automation can also quickly propagate human error to all the platform. How to trust everybody with production level access?
Common wisdom has it that test efforts should be related to the risk of a change. However, the reality is different: Developers build elaborate automated test chains to test every single commit of their application. Admins regularly “test” changes on the live platform in production. But which change carries a higher risk of taking the live platform down?
What about the software that runs at the “lower levels” of your platform, e.g. systems automation, provisioning, proxy configuration, mail server configuration, database systems etc. An outage of any of those systems can have a financial impact that is as severe as a bug in the “main” software!
This talk gives a quick introduction into DevOps and continues to explore how test automation in operations and in infrastructure development helps to mitigate the risks associated with open collaboration between development and operations.
Based on recent developments at ImmobilienScout24 valuable lessons can be learned for every IT environment: How to to combine the goals of stable operations and quickly bringing changes into production through test automation and delivery chains.

The (perceived) risk of the DevOps is that too many people get the right to "break" the platform.
Test Driven Infrastructure is about adapting proven ideas from our developer colleagues to the development and operations of Infrastructure services like virtualization, OS provisioning, postfix configuration, httpd configuration, ssh tuning, SAN LUN mounting and others.
This talk shows how ImmobilienScout24 utilizes more and more test driven development in IT operations to increase quality and to mitigate the risk of opening up the infrastructure developmen to all developers.

One of the biggest learnings that any Ops person can learn from a Dev person is Test Driven Development. Easy to say - difficult to apply is my personal experience with the TDD challenge.
This talk throws some light on recent developments at ImmobilienScout24 that help us to develop the core of our infrastructure services with a test driven approach:
- How to do unit tests, integration tests and systems tests for infrastructure services?
- How to automatically verify Proxy, DNS, Postfix configurations before deploying them on live servers?
- How to test “dangerous” services like our PXE boot environment or the automated SAN mounting scripts?
- How to add a little bit of test coverage to everything we do.
- Test Driven: First write a failing test and then the code that fixes it.
The tools that we use are Bash, Python, Unit Test frameworks and Teamcity for build and test automation.
See http://blog.schlomo.schapiro.org/2013/12/test-driven-infrastructure.html for more about this topic.

Webinar: Designing a schema for a Data Warehouse
Are you new to data warehouses (DWH)? Do you need to check whether your data warehouse follows the best practices for a good design? In both cases, this webinar is for you.
A data warehouse is a central relational database that contains all measurements about a business or an organisation. This data comes from a variety of heterogeneous data sources, which includes databases of any type that back the applications used by the company, data files exported by some applications, or APIs provided by internal or external services.
But designing a data warehouse correctly is a hard task, which requires gathering information about the business processes that need to be analysed in the first place. These processes must be translated into so-called star schemas, which means, denormalised databases where each table represents a dimension or facts.
We will discuss these topics:
- How to gather information about a business;
- Understanding dictionaries and how to identify business entities;
- Dimensions and facts;
- Setting a table granularity;
- Types of facts;
- Types of dimensions;
- Snowflakes and how to avoid them;
- Expanding existing dimensions and facts.
