Wikify your Doc Set: A Writer's Role in Web 2.0Anne Gentle
Learn from other examples of wikis used for end-user documentation. Evaluate the advantages and known limitations of using a wiki. Determine if simply adopting wiki-like technology would be sufficient for your environment. Get some judo moves for defending your stance for or against a wiki.
Inclusive, Accessible Tech: Bias-Free Language in Code and ConfigurationsAnne Gentle
Heard of suss? You can suss out more information or you can find someone's information to be suss. "Suss" shows the flexibility of language. It’s an ongoing process to change how we use certain words. It's important to choose words carefully to convey the correct meaning and avoid harmful subtext or exclusion. Let's explore some of the tools and triage methods it takes from an engineering viewpoint to make bias-free choices. How can you ensure that biased words do not sneak into code, UI, docs, configurations, or our everyday language?
First, let's walk through how to take an inventory of assets from code to config files to API specifications to standards. Next, by placing those findings into categories, prioritize the work to substitute with inclusive alternatives. Let's examine some examples using both API and code assets. Next is a demonstration of how to automate analyzing your source code or documentation with a linter, looking for patterns based on rules that are fed into the tool.
What's in the future for these efforts? Inclusive language should expand beyond English and North American efforts. To do so, let's organize the work with automation tooling, as engineers do.
Docs as Code: Publishing Processes for API ExperiencesAnne Gentle
When you treat docs like code, you multiply everyone’s efforts and streamline processes through collaboration, automation, and plain old hard work. To create a cohesive API experience, developers, technical marketing engineers, technical writers, and product managers can work together on GitHub to produce web pages and API documentation, including interactive API docs and tutorials. The ways you can leverage developer processes and tools in a docs-as-code system vary widely. Let's walk through some examples including tools, version control, publishing workflows, approvals, source formats, checklists, automated testing, and final approval. Also, let's take some time to share some of the pitfalls and difficulties possible when you work on API and tools documentation for a large and varied product catalog with more than a thousand contributors.
What happens when smart developers build sites automatically? Explore webhooks to automate building web sites with modern development techniques. Do you want to learn how to build your own IT doc system? Record your network configurations, infrastructure docs, or collaborate on a wiki - all programmatically. Continuous deployment (CD) lets you build the docs on another system and then place the files where the web server can serve them. CD can include both the building of the HTML files as well as deploying them to a host. Continuous deployment and automation is game-changing for web sites. You can get free or super inexpensive hosting, make sure that all your pull requests build correctly, and make gorgeous web sites, all with automated builds. These services manage setting up the web server, certificates, and domain set up so you can focus on writing down your docs. Webhooks are a mechanism for triggering an event based on a change in a repository. That repository can contain documentation, configuration files, even runbooks that you can link to from the docs pages. You can choose from different services that provide webhooks to build your site automatically.
When you treat docs like code, you multiply everyone’s efforts and streamline processes through collaboration, automation, and innovation. The benefits are real, but these efforts are complex. The ways you can leverage developer process and tools vary widely. Let’s unpack the absolute best situation for using a docs as code model.
Then, we can walk through multiple considerations that may point you in one direction or another. We can talk about version control, publishing, REST API considerations, source formats, automation, quality controls and testing, and lessons learned. Let’s study best practices that are outcome-dependent and situational, creating strategic efforts.
When Infrastructure becomes so reliable it's boring, apps can shine. Here's how to learn more about configuration management and application deployment for OpenStack clouds like Cisco Metacloud. Delivered at the OpenStack Summit in Barcelona, October 2016.
Journey into Continuous Glucose Monitoring Technology as a ParentAnne Gentle
In this lightning talk, Anne Gentle draws on her experiences as a parent to discuss the current state of kids' wearable devices, stories, and experiences from a parent's perspective. Hear about both open source and proprietary solutions for using and displaying medical data such as continuous glucose monitoring. See how cloud technologies and NoSQL databases provide parents and kids more sleep and dad to make good decisions.
I have evidence that using git and GitHub for documentation and community doc techniques can give us 300 doc changes in a month. I’ve bet my career on these methods and I want to share with you.
You'll Never Look at Developer Support the Same Way AgainAnne Gentle
Why will I never look at developer support the same way again? Because I've been on the Developer Experience team at Rackspace, and watching and monitoring the many ways that developers ask questions.
After four years of reading documentation comments on the API documents, I have some insights to share. Our support group has built a tool to listen to tagged feeds on Stack Overflow, read the jclouds mailing lists, all with the OpenStack app developer in mind. We monitor stackoverflow.com, serverfault.com, and superuser.com for questions tagged with Rackspace, rackspace-cloud, fog, cloudfiles, jclouds, pyrax, or keystone. At Rackspace we have been supporting cross-cloud SDKs such as Apache jclouds, Node.js pkgcloud, Ruby Fog, Python Pyrax, .NET, and PHP. Let's look at the data from these many places to find out the patterns for application development. What are the most popular? Which are the most pesky? Let's find out.
So You Want to be an OpenStack ContributorAnne Gentle
Our very own Anne Gentle will go through how to contribute to OpenStack, the open source cloud computing project. What is OpenStack? In a sentence, OpenStack provides open source software for building public and private clouds. What does that mean? We're a collection of open source projects written in Python that integrate to help organizations deploy and run clouds for computing, networking, and storage. Here at Rackspace many of our public cloud services are maintained in OpenStack, and we also offer Private Cloud configuration and management for customers to have OpenStack running for them in their data center or ours.
She'll walk through:
What are all these projects?
Where would I begin?
Is it only coding that counts?
What's Stackforge?
What's Gerrit?
What's <fill-in-weird-code-name-here>?
Then we'll do a hands-on workshop to walk through the first-time contributor process. It's a set-it-and-forget-it process but can be intimidating.

Social web for Tech Comm, STC March 2013Anne Gentle
In a world where readers simply expect websites to offer well-connected experiences, technical documentation
teams must consider the possibilities now available to us through collaborative means. Having worked with blogs,
wikis, open source software, and social networking techniques, I want to share what I’ve learned about documentation as conversation. Through my work with the
OpenStack project, I have further refined my approach to technical content strategy with collaborative, community methods. My presentation shares the methods we use with OpenStack, the ways my thinking has changed, pitfalls to avoid, and measurements that help refine the strategy.
OpenStack documentation has a series of documents for administrators and API users. All these documents need to be translated. The continuous development of documents brings difficulties to the translation management, but the process can be automated with continuous integration. This slide deck introduces the process and the technologies used in the translation management during OpenStack document internationalization. It also includes a demo for creating a Chinese version of manuals.
Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

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!

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.
