VMware 2015: Next Horizon for Cloud Networking and SecurityVMworld
Software Defined Networking (SDN) and network virtualization has become an accepted part of modern data center architecture. The transformation of networking into a software industry has accelerated innovation and given rise to a number of new technologies and use cases that were previously impossible. Network virtualization is starting to have profound impact on services, security, the underlying physical networks and the organization of the IT organizations that use them. How will network virtualization impact the next horizon for cloud networking and security?
In this session Guido Appenzeller presents a tech-preview of NSX working with Docker Containers and Amazon Web Services (AWS). Additional speakers include Scott Lowe, Mukesh Hira and Jacob Cherkas from VMware and Suneet Nandwani from eBay.
VMworld 2015: Advanced SQL Server on vSphereVMworld
Microsoft SQL Server is one of the most widely deployed “apps” in the market today and is used as the database layer for a myriad of applications, ranging from departmental content repositories to large enterprise OLTP systems. Typical SQL Server workloads are somewhat trivial to virtualize; however, business critical SQL Servers require careful planning to satisfy performance, high availability, and disaster recovery requirements. It is the design of these business critical databases that will be the focus of this breakout session. You will learn how build high-performance SQL Server virtual machines through proper resource allocation, database file management, and use of all-flash storage like XtremIO. You will also learn how to protect these critical systems using a combination of SQL Server and vSphere high availability features. For example, did you know you can vMotion shared-disk Windows Failover Cluster nodes? You can in vSphere 6! Finally, you will learn techniques for rapid deployment, backup, and recovery of SQL Server virtual machines using an all-flash array.
VMworld 2015: Extreme Performance Series - vSphere Compute & MemoryVMworld

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.

- Maintenance of superior security standards and inherent policy enforcement with Authorization to Operate (ATO)
Development teams can ship efficiently and ensure applications are cyber ready for Navy Authorizing Officials (AOs). In this webinar, Sigma Defense and Anchore will give attendees a look behind the scenes and demo secure pipeline automation and security artifacts that speed up application ATO and time to production.
We will cover:
- How to remove silos in DevSecOps
- How to build efficient development pipeline roles and component templates
- How to deliver security artifacts that matter for ATO’s (SBOMs, vulnerability reports, and policy evidence)
- How to streamline operations with automated policy checks on container images
Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software FuzzingAftab Hussain
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.
- These are slides of the talk given at IEEE International Conference on Software Testing Verification and Validation Workshop, ICSTW 2022.

Editor's Notes
What is vCloud Air?
vCloud Air is a public cloud owned and operated by Vmware. It is built on the same foundation of vSphere and is compatible with existing vSphere deployments On Premises.
vCloud Air Includes Infrastructure as a Service and Disaster Recovery as a Service offerings and includes a full suite of capabilities including various compute, sotrage and Networking capabilities to meet your needs.
vCloud Air enables existing vSphere customers to extend their On-premises workloads into the cloud, creating a true hybrid cloud solution. vCloud Air can also serve as a standalone public cloud solution for users who may not have vSphere running on premises.
Now that we have defined what the service is, let’s better understand why a user may be interested in public cloud and common problems they may face.
The vCloud Air, which is based on vSphere, supports multiple applications and multiple operating systems.
This includes a considerable list of packaged applications like Exchange, SharePoint, Oracle and SAP, to name a few, and a considerable number of Windows and Linux Operating Systems that grows to meet the needs of our users.
VMware has always had a workload-agnostic and application-neutral approach. There is no “preferred” workload and in fact, VMware works with the ISV community to make sure their applications run on VMware. There are more than 5000 applications that are explicitly supported on VMware including most of the top applications for different industry segments.
VMware’s broad operating system, application, and uniform performance across virtualized applications make it possible to have one platform – both on-premises and off-premises – to standardize on. That means customers can trust that the vCloud Air will support both the legacy applications they are running today as well as the future applications that they will need to run in the down the road.
<CLICK>
10
Geographically available in all major continents, with specialized services in North America for federal sector entities.
The core service offering is based around three major types of cloud. Dedicated Cloud is physically isolated, so the customer gets their own servers, and they can think of that as their own private cloud. Virtual Private Cloud is multi-tenant, so it's logically isolated, though multiple tenants are on the same infrastructure, but you do get guaranteed resources. It's not like other tenants can steal CPU memory or other resources from you.
And then Disaster Recovery is designed as a multi-tenant service that's a warm standby for the workloads that are running inside of the data center on vSphere. All of this has common identity, common API, management, security, and networking, so this is all part of one service, but there are these three different types inside of that. So everything's supported by VMware's Global Support Services, and then your application and platform as a service runs on top of that foundation.
Subscription options provide IT the familiar predictability of resources with a defined cost that aligns to budget processes and parameters. It also allows for a pool of predefined resources from which to draw and allocate for steady state workloads that are characteristically predictable and consistent.
OnDemand allows us to expand the base of users by offering a self service, variable cost option to tap into a virtually unlimited pool of resources that can more effectively address more elastic workload demands that are more unpredictable in nature.
It makes it very simple to start new trials & onboard customers while accelerating usage and onboarding of new users.
Same as VPC – Just a different commercial model
Azure
VPN or ExpressRoute
Basic – 30/mo High Performance - $365 mo
Basic – 100 mbps HP – 200 mbps
Our starts at 500 mbps goes to 1GBps
ExpressRoute vs VPN – ER max is 2 GBps @ 365/mo
Our Basic is 1 GBps for cost
A feature that supports Infrastructure Replication is the ability for the NSX Edge gateway to have up to 200 Sub interfaces per virtual datacenter. While we see an average of 3 routed organization networks in each customer’s environments, we will be able to accommodate the more complex networking scenarios. We have recently seen the need for this from corporations wanting to resell their service and use vCloud Air as platform and in disaster recovery scenarios.
Hybrid Cloud Manager
We are running a special promotion to encourage VMworld attendees to test drive and begin using the vCloud Air OnDemand service.
For a limited time, we are offering $600 in FREE SERVICE CREDITS for vCloud Air Virtual Private Cloud OnDemand.
Customers can sign up to immediately begin using the service. The service credits are valid for 60 days.
Dedicated and VPC, NOT on demand platform
Authentication – can to dual factor with vRA – etc. Different portal.
OVF Import
vCloud Air and vCloud Government Service are compatible with vSphere and customers can do a straight import of an OVF file:
Using built-in Java applet or custom solution
With Direct Connect1, bandwidth up to 10 Gbps
One VM/vApp/template at a time
vCloud Connector (vCC)
Main tool for customers migrating VMs/Apps/templates to and from vCloud Air & vCloud Government Service:
HTTPs upload via API for OVF and media
One VM/vApp/template at a time
Integrated into vSphere Client via Plugin
Data Center Extension
Automated Catalog Synchronization
Offline Data Transfer2
For migrating very large or a large number of VMs/vApps/templates copied at a time using a encrypted storage device shipped to customer
Use your own
Build out your infrastructure – create complementary networks, build Domain Controllers, Build Sites and Services etc. Antivirus, Backup Servers.
Network resource pool per Virtual Data Center == 500
They are backed by VxLANs
This is where we show some complex networking. We can do 3rd party appliances – RSA, F5, Riverbed
These are all just organization networks. We have 10 interfaces total, 9 are useable by the customer.
That lends itself to all kinds of creative security zones. Multiple DMZs. Web servers here, direct routes to app servers over here that can’t talk to the internet etc.
Explain the possibilities. Most other clouds give you an outside network and an inside network in their VPCs. That’s it. We can do more.
Build out your infrastructure – create complementary networks, build Domain Controllers, Build Sites and Services etc. Antivirus, Backup Servers.
Hackathon background and detail:
Participate in VMworld’s first ever Hackathon, Wednesday, September 2.
The Hackathon is open to all VMworld attendees.
A separate registration is required to participate in the Hackathon. Registration opens Monday, August 13, 2015. http://www.vmworld.com/en/us/programs/developer-day.html
