Micro-Interactions in a 2.0 World (v2)David Armano
“We live in a world where the little things really do matter. Each encounter no matter how brief is a micro interaction which makes a deposit or withdrawal from our rational and emotional subconscious. The sum of these interactions and encounters adds up to how we feel about a particular product, brand or service. Little things. Feelings. They influence our everyday behaviors more than we realize.”

With today’s evolving technological landscape, chances are you’ve heard of the term “cloud.” You may have even wondered why anyone would be talking about the weather along with computing infrastructures and data centers. Although the popularity of the cloud has gradually risen, there are many people who still don’t know exactly what it is.
The cloud is the general term for cloud computing, which refers to the use of the Internet to access hosted services or your own applications, storage, servers, and data that are hosted in a remote location. Saving your files to the cloud allows you to access them from anywhere at any time, as long as you have an Internet connection. You have probably been using cloud services or resources for a while without even knowing it. The most common cloud services include Gmail, Dropbox, Google Docs, and even Twitter.
Cloud computing is continuing to gain momentum among businesses and consumers alike. It offers consumers a more convenient way to store and share their files as well as access their data at any time, from anywhere. Businesses are virtualizing corporate desktops in the cloud and have considerably reduced the costs of maintaining their physical IT infrastructures in the process. Cloud services allow for more flexible working practices as well as greater mobility. Accessing your data on any device is safe and secure, and actually gives companies a better way to manage and secure data.
Cloud computing focuses on shared resources within the infrastructure. This means that customers share physical resources while maintaining security by reinforcing their “piece of the pie” with firewalls and virtual security. By focusing on this shared resource methodology, cloud companies can offer incredibly cost-effective rates compared to traditional computing due to the positive economies of scale. The more tenants that occupy a cloud, the more cost effective a solution becomes. The best Cloud providers use this method to offer solutions for a fraction of what they would cost should an organization attempt to do them in-house.
The cloud is quickly becoming commonplace in the world of technology. Its accessibility and convenience are undeniable, and more often than not, businesses and service providers have considered implementing or currently utilize cloud computing.
Cloud Migration: Optimize your workforce productivity by migrating your siloed infrastructure to the cloud. There are many benefits to moving to the cloud — like increased productivity, better agility and decreased costs- but getting there is a real challenge.
This presentation details how each company can employ the cloud to find a competitive advantage within the marketplace. It discusses cost savings, disaster preparedness, and agility. It also provides a short description of what the cloud is, how it works, and why it is making such a large impact on our lives today.

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle.
Gopinath Rebala
Gopinath Rebala is the CTO of OpsMx, where he has overall responsibility for the machine learning and data processing architectures for Secure Software Delivery. Gopi also has a strong connection with our customers, leading design and architecture for strategic implementations. Gopi is a frequent speaker and well-known leader in continuous delivery and integrating security into software delivery.
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.

Here is something new! In our next Connector Corner webinar, we will demonstrate how you can use a single workflow to:
Create a campaign using Mailchimp with merge tags/fields
Send an interactive Slack channel message (using buttons)
Have the message received by managers and peers along with a test email for review
But there’s more:
In a second workflow supporting the same use case, you’ll see:
Your campaign sent to target colleagues for approval
If the “Approve” button is clicked, a Jira/Zendesk ticket is created for the marketing design team
But—if the “Reject” button is pushed, colleagues will be alerted via Slack message
Join us to learn more about this new, human-in-the-loop capability, brought to you by Integration Service connectors.

2. UNCOVERING THE CLOUD
• History of the cloud (short)
• Is it right for everything and everybody?
• Considerations and planning
• Examples
• Q & A
3. THE CLOUD
• What do you think of when you hear
the word “Cloud”?
• The cloud has been around for a long
time
• When we walk back through history –
main frames and dumb terminals were
the first cloud
5. • Delivery of computing as a service
• Shared resources and information
• Provided as a utility
• Think electric service
• Delivered over a network
THE CLOUD DEFINED
6. WHY CARE?
• Changed how we store
information and access
applications
• Shifting how we “buy” technology
• Driven by connectivity
• Where did the term “Cloud” come
from?
8. PUBLIC CLOUD
Cloud provider…
• Owns hardware
• Responsible for the maintenance and uptime
• Typically houses equipment
Why choose…
• Can reduce complexity
• Can decrease lead times for implementation
• Usually paid for with operational funds
9. PRIVATE CLOUD
Internal or enterprise cloud …
• Deployed over an internal network
• Located on-premise or collocated (CoLo’d)
• Company usually owns equipment
• Managed with corporate staff or third party
Why Choose…
• Can be paid as capital or operational expense
• Usually best performance
• Can be easiest to secure
10. HYBRID CLOUD
Combines power of public and private clouds
• Integration can be expensive
• Payoffs generally worth it
Why choose…
• When not all applications work in public cloud
• When it’s economical to achieve integration
11. BENEFIT BREAKDOWN
PUBLIC PRIVATE HYBRID
Pay for tech as operational expense X X X
Reduced Implementation costs X X
Highly scalable X X
Easy to manage X Some
Easy to upgrade hardware and software X some
Fast patches and security fixes X Maybe
High secure X Some
High performance Usually Some
12. MOTIVATIONS FOR MIGRATION
• Easier mobile access
• Anywhere, any time, from any device using cloud provider’s infrastructure and
bandwidth
• Business agility and flexibility
• Pay as you go
• Better analytics on application usage
• Delivered to you from cloud provider
• Includes software licensing compliance
• Reduced and/or re-allocated costs
• Can remove some of IT’s greatest non-value-adding challenges
• Focus on mission critical initiatives
13. KEY CONSIDERATIONS
• End Users
• End result should show similar or better performance
• May require them to change and get training
• Don’t “push” technology to them
• Business buy in
• Need sponsorship from the top
• Is the financial model of “purchasing IT as you go” right for the business?
• Opex vs. Capex
• Architecture
• Will it work?
• What applications work best?
14. COMMON CONCERNS
• Security
• Moving your data and applications to a third party provider creates some security
risks
• Loss of control
• The control of hardware, software, security policies, etc., is placed in the hands of a
third party provider
• Integration
• Having multiple systems communicate with each other can be a challenge
• Connectivity to cloud resources
• More discussion to come
15. MIGRATION ROADMAP
1. Assess your applications and workloads
2. Address security and privacy requirements
3. Build the business case
4. Develop the technical approach
5. Adopt a flexible integration model
6. Manage the migration
16. WHEN BUYING “A CLOUD”
1. Spend time on connectivity
• Most failed deployments are due to poor connectivity
• Fall short of 100Mbs (LAN speeds)
• Consider an SD WAN connection (next slide)
2. Know your Service Level Agreement (SLA) or Service Level Target
• Best efforts vs. guaranteed – who’s responsible
• 99% uptime may not be enough for your organization
3. Take an extended test drive
• Conduct a pilot with a group of users (PoC)
• Not everything always works as advertised
17. SD WAN
• More network control using software and
automation
• Pay less for more performance
• Rely more on public broadband and less on
private links
• More efficient way to send and retrieve
information based on traffic types
• Not easy to implement
• Significant programming and talent required
• There are upfront hardware requirements
18. MANAGED WAN
• Monitor vs. Guard
• Red and green lights
• With Managed WAN…
• Respond to the “Yellow Light”
• Technicians can remote in and make changes
• Uses Data Collection Agents to collect
statistics and potential problems
• Automation is the future
• Does many tasks automatically – but not all
21. EXAMPLE BUSINESS MIGRATIONS
The good, the bad and the ugly
• Business situation and goal
• Many small offices and remote users
• Data center is a closet (literally)
• Server is end of life
• Sounds like a perfect fit for public cloud;
• Except they have a home grown line of business app that won’t work
• Solution
• Hybrid Cloud with LoB app remaining on premise, all other apps in public cloud
22. • Business situation and goal
• 100 users on older laptops and desktops
• Do not want to manage or purchase new hardware
• Just bought new servers
• Sounds like a perfect fit for some sort of cloud and co-location
• Solution
• Move new servers to public cloud provider’s data center (CoLo)
• Have cloud provider manage servers
• Configure DaaS, or terminal services to utilize existing laptops/desktops
EXAMPLE BUSINESS MIGRATIONS
The good, the bad and the ugly
23. • Business situation and goal
• Wanted Opex spend for technology
• Did not want to manage equipment
• All applications tested in virtual environment
• Sounds like a perfect fit for public cloud
• Discover poor performance compared to previous on-premise solution
• Solution
• Multiple Internet connections with SD WAN
EXAMPLE BUSINESS MIGRATIONS
The good, the bad and the ugly
24. UNCOVERING THE CLOUD
