This document discusses launching multiple OSGi frameworks within a single Java Virtual Machine (JVM). It describes challenges like runtime isolation, application models, and avoiding conflicts between frameworks and applications. The RFC 0138 proposes addressing these issues by allowing child frameworks to be created and managed, and by multiplexing singleton services like URL handlers across frameworks. However, the specification is incomplete and complex to implement. The document concludes that running multiple frameworks in a single JVM is important but not straightforward to achieve.
The document discusses cloud computing and the concept of a "World Wide Cloud" (WWC). It defines cloud as a service model (IaaS, PaaS, SaaS, etc.) and discusses users and producers in the cloud. It then introduces the idea of the WWC architecture, which would allow computing environments and virtual machines to be migrated across multiple clouds without changes, enabling universal cloud computing. Key aspects of the WWC architecture include virtual and hardware-independent elements, separate data/control/encryption paths, and migrate-able virtual computing environments called Migrate-able Domains.
The document provides perspectives on cloud computing from both a lighthearted and insightful view. It references how clouds have long been inspirations for philosophers and artists. It then examines different views on what cloud computing is - a way for vendors to utilize excess capacity or a new paradigm that optimizes resources. It also debates public vs private clouds and software as a service (SaaS) vs traditional models. Finally, it provides recommendations on when different approaches make most sense based on a company's size and needs.

The document discusses considerations for cloud adoption and the cloud service models of infrastructure as a service (IaaS), platform as a service (PaaS), and software as a service (SaaS). It addresses barriers to cloud adoption such as security, vendor lock-in, and performance concerns. The document advocates applying an 80/20 approach to determine which workloads are suitable for different cloud deployment options and service providers. It concludes that cloud should be part of an IT strategy through a deliberate choice of delivery platforms to address specific needs.
[OSDC.tw 2011] The Path to Pass into PaaS -- How We Build the SolutionJeff Hung
The document discusses the development of a Platform as a Service (PaaS) using Elaster CAP. It describes Elaster CAP's architecture which uses a Workload Optimization Engine (WOE) to dynamically distribute workloads across resource hosts based on global knowledge of system resources. It also discusses how Elaster CAP implements state transactions to transition cloud entities like application containers from their current to expected states.
The document discusses how computing environments and vendors are evolving due to trends in cloud computing and vendor mergers. It explains how technologies that were previously separate choices, such as servers, storage, networking and software, are consolidating within a few major vendors to create integrated cloud offerings. This means enterprises have three options for sourcing clouds: building their own internal clouds, using infrastructure-as-a-service from external providers, or software-as-a-service. Determining the best approach depends on factors like existing investments, business needs, security, and application integration requirements. The consulting firm can help CIOs evaluate these options by focusing on business service management implications and interpreting research for each organization's unique situation.

6. Implications for IT in delivering cloud
(ISM319) What Drives the Need for Application-Defined ManagementAmazon Web Services
"The typical Forbes Global 2000 enterprise has more than 5,000 applications. Amazon EC2 has more than 54,800 possible instance configurations for a simple three-tiered application. Managing the application lifecycle is challenging due to three interrelated degrees of freedom in the cloud: application proliferation, execution venue diversification, and the increase in the rate of change to one or both of the latter.
Creating rigid, hard-wired relationships between applications and infrastructure simply won’t scale. What’s needed is the ability to abstract up to the application level, define each application’s topology and dependencies, and use this metadata to allow the infrastructure environment to dynamically provision resources based on application criteria. This focus on the application and not just infrastructure is what’s behind application-defined cloud management. Session sponsored by cliQr."

Accenture Finds that Vast Majority of Companies are Embracing the Journey to the Cloud but Alignment to Business Strategy Lags
Accenture’s “Cloud in the Boardroom” study found that although there’s a significant uptick in cloud adoption at the enterprise level, companies are missing the full benefit of their cloud adoptions by not factoring their IT implementations into their overall business strategy.
Accenture conducted an online survey, fielded between January and February of 2016, of 1,879 C-level executives of companies across 15 industries in 13 countries. Some key findings include:
- More than 95 percent of respondents have a five-year cloud strategy already in place, however only 38 percent have aligned these plans with overarching business goals.
- Four of five executives reported that less than half of their business functions are currently operated in public cloud, but noted increasing intent on moving more of their operations to the cloud in the coming years.
- 89 percent of respondents agree that implementing cloud strategies is a competitive advantage which allows their companies to leverage innovation through agility.
- While half of respondents cite security as their biggest concern with the public model, more than 80 percent believe public cloud security is more robust and transparent than what they’re able to provide in-house.
“Our research confirms that enterprise clients are overwhelmingly recognizing the value of a Cloud First agenda—leveraging the cloud to bring applications, infrastructure and business processes together and be delivered as-a-Service—as a driver of digital innovation, and they are upfront about the guidance they need in order to move even faster on their journey to the cloud,” said Jack Sepple, senior managing director, Accenture Cloud and Accenture Operations group technology officer. “By taking steps to align their cloud and business strategies and to involve IT more directly in cloud decision-making, companies will be better positioned on their journey to the cloud as the as-a-Service economy matures.”

An IT-as-a-Service Handbook: 10 Key Steps on the Journey to ITaaS EMC
The document provides 10 key steps to guide an organization's transformation to an IT-as-a-Service (ITaaS) delivery model based on EMC's experience. Step 3 involves defining a program plan, scope, and milestones for building the ITaaS model. The plan should have a lighter, more agile structure compared to traditional IT projects due to different risk/cost trade-offs. Scoping depends on resources and should consider how each of ITIL's 26 processes will be impacted in a iterative process with acquiring resources. Tools like financial management can be separated from the main transformation program to keep focus.

Along the way, we'll learn about Infrastructure-as-a-Service with boto, provisioning tools like fabric, and Oracle response files. When we're done, we'll have a repeatable, ten-minute process that can deliver a server as cheap as $5/day or as powerful as 40k IOPS and 2.6GB/s throughput. More importantly, we'll understand what the big deal about IaaS and automated provisioning really is, and how enterprise products like Oracle can still fit comfortably in the space.
Track 1, Session 3 - intelligent infrastructure for the virtualized world by ...EMC Forum India
The document discusses challenges faced by a financial services company with their complex datacenter infrastructure including server and storage sprawl across multiple disconnected systems. It describes how EMC proposed consolidating their infrastructure with Intellegent Infrastructure solutions including FAST Suite for automatic data placement and optimization. This provided benefits like reduced drive counts, high performance from FAST cache, and more efficient transaction processing per rack unit.
Converged infrastructure groups multiple IT components like servers, storage, and networking equipment into a single optimized package. It provided a single support model but fell short in management, automation, orchestration, and flexibility. Hyper-converged infrastructure tightly integrated storage similar to how virtualization integrated servers, allowing simpler and denser infrastructure. However, both converged and hyper-converged infrastructure only made infrastructure marginally easier and did not support the goal of treating computing resources like utilities. True cloud-native applications that are serverless, containerized, and code-focused will require software-defined infrastructure to fully realize the fourth computing paradigm.
This document provides an overview of Atlantis Computing, a software company focused on I/O optimization for virtualized environments. Atlantis' software product, Atlantis ILIO, cuts costs and improves performance for virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) deployments. ILIO reduces storage needs by over 90% and delivers faster performance than physical PCs. It also enables diskless VDI deployments with no shared storage required. The document discusses how ILIO works and its benefits for both persistent and stateless VDI models as well as virtualized Citrix XenApp environments.
The document provides 30 tips for optimizing virtual machine performance. Some key tips include allocating only the CPUs and RAM needed for each VM, upgrading to VMware tools version 7 for performance improvements, enabling hyperthreading, setting NICs to autonegotiate, and disconnecting unused physical hardware devices from VMs. The document emphasizes the importance of right-sizing resources for each VM based on its specific workload.

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).

Conversational agents, or chatbots, are increasingly used to access all sorts of services using natural language. While open-domain chatbots - like ChatGPT - can converse on any topic, task-oriented chatbots - the focus of this paper - are designed for specific tasks, like booking a flight, obtaining customer support, or setting an appointment. Like any other software, task-oriented chatbots need to be properly tested, usually by defining and executing test scenarios (i.e., sequences of user-chatbot interactions). However, there is currently a lack of methods to quantify the completeness and strength of such test scenarios, which can lead to low-quality tests, and hence to buggy chatbots.
To fill this gap, we propose adapting mutation testing (MuT) for task-oriented chatbots. To this end, we introduce a set of mutation operators that emulate faults in chatbot designs, an architecture that enables MuT on chatbots built using heterogeneous technologies, and a practical realisation as an Eclipse plugin. Moreover, we evaluate the applicability, effectiveness and efficiency of our approach on open-source chatbots, with promising results.

From Natural Language to Structured Solr Queries using LLMsSease
This talk draws on experimentation to enable AI applications with Solr. One important use case is to use AI for better accessibility and discoverability of the data: while User eXperience techniques, lexical search improvements, and data harmonization can take organizations to a good level of accessibility, a structural (or “cognitive” gap) remains between the data user needs and the data producer constraints.
That is where AI – and most importantly, Natural Language Processing and Large Language Model techniques – could make a difference. This natural language, conversational engine could facilitate access and usage of the data leveraging the semantics of any data source.
The objective of the presentation is to propose a technical approach and a way forward to achieve this goal.
The key concept is to enable users to express their search queries in natural language, which the LLM then enriches, interprets, and translates into structured queries based on the Solr index’s metadata.
This approach leverages the LLM’s ability to understand the nuances of natural language and the structure of documents within Apache Solr.
The LLM acts as an intermediary agent, offering a transparent experience to users automatically and potentially uncovering relevant documents that conventional search methods might overlook. The presentation will include the results of this experimental work, lessons learned, best practices, and the scope of future work that should improve the approach and make it production-ready.
