Forced Evolution: Shopify's Journey to Kubernetes

C4Media

Niko Kurtti talks about the challenges Shopify saw in moving from a traditional host-based infrastructure to a cloud native one, moving not only their core app to Kubernetes but also hundreds of other apps at the same time. He focuses on the cluster tooling solutions they've built, such as controllers, cluster creators, and deploy tools. Filmed at qconnewyork.com. Niko Kurtti is a production engineer at Shopify. He started out as a software developer doing web apps with Java, but since then fell in love with container technologies. He was part of the effort to roll out Docker in production at Shopify in 2014 and is still working around the same domain, but today the focus is on Shopify’s internal PaaS based on k8s.

Enabling DPU Hardware Accelerators in XCP-ng Cloud Platform Environment - And...

ShapeBlue

In cloud computing environments, VMs require fast access to resources like storage and networking. The hardware that the VMs access is implemented in software and/or by passing through a dedicated hardware device. Software-based solutions consume extra CPU cycles, thus resulting in poor performance. Also, these require to expose a device-model to the guest, thus increasing the attack surface. Conversely, hardware passthrough provides better performance and security but can be expensive in terms of the number of physical resources, since each device is dedicated to a single VM. This talk focuses on how Vates is working on sharing hardware resources among VMs by relying on dedicated processors named Data Processing Units (DPU). More precisely, Vates work on offloading Xen hypervisor of storage emulation by relying on Kalray K200 DPU PCIe controllers, a hardware accelerator based on MPPA architecture. ----------------------------------------- The CloudStack Collaboration Conference 2023 took place on 23-24th November.
