Adopting PCF At An Automobile ManufacturerVMware Tanzu
SpringOne Platform 2017
Thomas Seibert, Mercedes-Benz.io GmbH; Gregor Zurowski, Independent Consultant
"The main idea for this talk is to show the audience how we implemented a microservice architecture based on Pivotal Cloud Foundry (PCF) in a corporate environment by avoiding monolithic applications, allowing shorter release cycles and enabling horizontal scalability with a multitude of teams. This case study covers project inception, conception, implementation and going into production. The goal is to share our experiences, ideas and gotchas on our path to digital transformation with PCF.
We start off by briefly describing our initial design ideas of moving away from a heavyweight application model to lightweight, flexible and scalable applications.
In the main part of the presentation we focus on the design and architecture of our PCF environment and our microservice applications. In this part, we discuss the following topics:
How we set up our PCF foundations.
How we enabled our teams and organized business services into PCF orgs and spaces.
Our development stack that includes Spring Boot, Spring Cloud, and Spring Cloud Services.
The need for shared services across space and org boundaries.
Our application versioning concept and how we implemented it.
The use of an API gateway component and how we implemented it.
Patterns for backend integration.
Zero downtime deployments.
In the last part, we speak about issues we experienced, lessons we learned, plans for improvement, as well as opportunities and enhancements for the platform."

Turning up the HEAT with IBM MobileFirst for iOS AppsMichael Elder
The landmark partnership between Apple and IBM announced last year set the internet abuzz. The partnership aims to spark true mobile-led business change across the
enterprise. In this talk, we’ll show you how IBM is using OpenStack, Heat, and DevOps to
deploy a truly monumental undertaking.
To fulfill this goal, we needed to redefine how we deliver our software. Leveraging IBM’s unique expertise in OpenStack and DevOps, we turned the “art of the possible” into our new “reality”. In this talk, we’ll tell the story of how we used fullstack application patterns based on OpenStack Heat to provision environments with speed and reliability. You will hear directly from the joint development team how these patterns enabled us to collaborate unimpeded by the traditional road blocks of IT development. As it turns out, our goal to “spark true business change” has
extended beyond our customers to include IBM itself.
You will not only hear about the technical solution but see it in action with a demo in the session.
Manual application deployment processes tend to be error prone and inefficient and can make achieving consistent deployments seem impossible.
There is good news. You don’t need to choose between a careful, rigorous approach and a speedy but haphazard one. It’s possible to implement an automated deployment solution that provides consistency and audit trails while improving productivity for your release engineers, operations personnel, and testers. See how!

In this webinar, he will cover an innovative new way of designing and versioning your cloud applications through a web-based environment development toolkit.
Continuously Design your Continuous DeploymentMichael Elder
Whether your applications are cloud-native, cloud-ready, or just evolving towards cloud-based deployment, you can capture the complete stack as an OpenStack Heat template. In this session, we’ll present a web-based editing experience that enables you to capture each aspect of your architecture in a ready-to-deploy and easy-to-update design based on HOT. We'll show you those Heat templates in either a rich diagram editor or a simple but powerful text editor -- all in your web browser!
Advanced features like autoscaling, load balancing, deployment ordering, and object storage will all be captured as part of your application design — right along side the critical software that defines the business behavior of your workload.
And it’s not just about the first time you deploy, it’s about deploying every time thereafter. We’ll show you how you can manage your software deployment pipeline as part of your Heat templates.
Maybe you’re not sure what cloud to deploy to? Interested in OpenStack, but already have investments in other clouds? We’ll also demonstrate how we’ve extended the Heat language to design cloud-portable templates.
So come on this journey with us, where we’ll leverage the cloud to help you build better software for your end users.
- Define full stack application workloads using OpenStack HOT
- Deploy and update infrastructure and application changes as part of your release pipeline
- Design templates with autoscaling, load balancing, deployment ordering, and object storage as part of your application architecture
How do you deliver your applications to the cloud?Michael Elder
Cloud, Docker, Bluemix, and DevOps. You feel the pressure of a hyper-competitive marketplace, and you want to win. Your goal is to deliver apps to that make your users happy and excited about your brand and products, but how do you do that? In this talk, we'll provide a technical briefing for how you can use a DevOps-enabled toolchain to deliver your apps with speed and reliability to the cloud platform of your choice.

Deployment Automation for Hybrid Cloud and Multi-Platform EnvironmentsIBM UrbanCode Products
Today, competitive advantage is often driven by software. The business that can deploy solutions to their customers more quickly across a range of platforms, with the flexibility to continuously delivery new functionality, is poised to succeed. DevOps enables organizations to manage complex enterprise applications that are hybrid in nature - often with cloud or mobile components being fed by data from traditional back-end systems like databases or mainframes.
This eSeminar explores hybrid cloud use cases, along with solutions that equip businesses to deliver value to their customers with speed, quality, and security.

The IBM UrbanCode solution enables continuous release and application deployment allowing organizations to deliver applications rapidly and improve overall time to market.
Continuous Delivery seeks to deliver increased Business Agility by releasing smaller releases more frequently. To truly leverage Continuous Delivery, enterprises must consider impacts that span functional silos. Enterprises also struggle to apply continuous delivery principals to applications that touch older, slower moving components. When applications are a composite of numerous services, databases, and other components, managing dependencies can result in slowdown.
Join Eric Minick, DevOps Evangelist & Product Management Lead, at IBM. In this presentation, he will discuss:
- “Standard” continuous delivery
- Challenges larger organizations have with CD
- Techniques for applying continuous delivery to the largest applications

Get Mapped: Using Value Stream Mapping to Create a DevOps Adoption RoadmapIBM UrbanCode Products
Adopting DevOps is not a “one-and-done” project. It is adopting a mindset, a culture. It is a commitment to a journey of continuous improvement by adopting a set of capabilities and practices that are based on Lean principles. Adopting DevOps requires process improvement, automation of the processes using tools, and organizational change to enable a DevOps culture.
The question then becomes – where does one start?

This presentation will introduce a new DevOps reference architecture published by IBM. This technology agnostic reference architecture was developed harvesting solution architectures from dozens of clients who have been successful in adopting DevOps at scale. The presentation will present the capabilities - across practices, tools, platforms and organizational considerations, that are required for large scale DevOps adoption in an enterprise.
Leading the Transformation: Applying DevOps and Agile Principles at ScaleIBM UrbanCode Products
Software is becoming more and more important across a broad range of industries, yet technology executives often struggle to understand how to transform their current legacy systems and processes to scale across their organizations.
See how Gary Gruver, co-author of Leading the Transformation, and President of Practical Large Scale Agile, discusses how you can apply the basic principles of Agile and DevOps across your organization.
Securing the Automation of Application Deployment with UrbanCode DeployIBM UrbanCode Products
If you are contemplating the automation of application deployment or already doing it today with UrbanCode Deploy, you want to know that the proper checks and approvals are occurring at the right stages in your deployment process. These approvals can ensure that an application meets all requirements before it can deployed to an environment. This risk is that unsecured applications are vulnerable to someone inadvertently changing them or running them too soon or at the wrong time.
In this session you learn how to create teams and roles for a project and set up notifications and gates. You learn how to create authentication and authorization realms and permissions.
Everybody loves a good love story. And even more so one that mixes in pop stars and the music business! If you have an interest in hearing about how the benefits of DevOps can help unblock the delivery of IT innovation in your business then you’ll want to hear this story.
The world of IT is shifting rapidly towards DevOps with analysts predicting the majority of companies will adopt DevOps practices in the next few years. In fact, in a recent study on DevOps by International Data Corp. (IDC), they believe that DevOps will be adopted (in either practice or discipline) by 80% of Global 1000 organizations by 2019!
Forming a DevOps team seems like a natural step, but the idea of creating a dedicated DevOps team has ignited anger in the community. Why? What's the concern? Is a DevOps team evil? Completely necessary? A necessary Evil?
Join IBM UrbanCode's Eric Minick to learn the pitfalls of creating bad DevOps teams, and successful approaches of good ones. Along the way, we’ll explore other heresies such as using tools to change culture.
Continuous Delivery with Jenkins Enterprise and IBM UrbanCode DeployIBM UrbanCode Products
Jenkins, the world’s leading open source continuous integration server, and IBM UrbanCode Deploy can be used together to automate the end-to-end continuous delivery process.
See how Jenkins passes builds to IBM UrbanCode Deploy to automate the deployment of applications, middleware configurations and database changes into development, test and production environments—delivering higher quality software in a repeatable fashion.
Presented by: Eric Minick, IBM DevOps Evangelist (and UrbanCode guy), and Kohsuke Kawaguchi, CTO of CloudBees.
DevOps seeks to tear down barriers between development and operations that lead to slower change and worse quality. Implementing a DevOps Team that adds yet another silo to an organization can be counterproductive. Rebranding infrastructure or operations teams as "DevOps" doesn't help, either. However, scaling DevOps benefits from a dedicated team. This session looks to answer key questions when building a team to enable DevOps transformations. What are common DevOps team structures? Are there existing groups that can lead the transformation? Who should I include on the team? What should its charter be?
This deck is from a session delivered at IBM Interconnect 2015.
Using Lean Thinking to Identify and Address Delivery Pipeline BottlenecksIBM UrbanCode Products
Inefficient software delivery impacts the entire business, from line of business units, to operations, to development and test, and the variety of suppliers.
Wastes in your processes are causing bottlenecks.
Join Eric Minick, IBM DevOps Evangelist (and UrbanCode guy), as he explores how ‘Lean Thinking’ techniques can be leveraged to help identify ‘bottlenecks’ in your delivery pipeline that can be addressed by adopting DevOps.
Continuous Delivery is hot. As we all increasingly compete using software, the business always wants more change faster. However, change is seen as risky. How do we deliver quickly while not exposing the business to excessive risk? What does this imply for how we update our mission critical databases?
Successful continuous delivery efforts use quality as an enabler of rapid change. Rapid feedback on the quality of the application, and a disciplined, high quality process support frequent delivery of business value, rather than frequent outage.
IBM UrbanCode’s Eric Minick and DBmaestro’s Yaniv Yehuda present how to build safety in to your delivery process. We will look at database change in some detail while delivering generally applicable lessons.
"Shift Left" is a DevOps practice that provides an effective means to perform testing with or in parallel to development activities.
When shifting left, development, test and operations work together to plan, manage and execute automated and continuous testing to accelerate feedback to developers and improve the quality of changes early in the life-cycle. The rate of the accelerated feedback is determined by an organization’s desired outcomes for velocity of changes and capacity for feedback.

Explore the emerging best practices for leading organizational change to adopt application release and deployment. A variety of principles & practices will be described and illustrated through actual client cases.
Adopting DevOps in a Hybrid Cloud Featuring UrbanCode Deploy with BluemixIBM UrbanCode Products
Developing cloud-based applications using Bluemix and DevOps Services is simple and FAST– but what about when you’re building applications that interact with other services within your organization? What about when you’re deploying these application on-prem or to other clouds?
In these hybrids cloud environments, adoption of a DevOps approach to software delivery across your organization is critical to your team’s success. IBM UrbanCode Deploy delivers a common automated deployment pipeline across Bluemix and back-end environments, providing visibility and automated control of the application deployment process.
Deployment automation efforts tend to start with easier scenarios like moving builds of web applications to servers and getting them installed. However, some parts of our applications aren’t simple builds. They may be updated incrementally; changes may be non-repeatable; or they may be dependent on knowledge contained within some other tool or framework. When we fail to automate changes to these “tricky” parts of our application, errors and delays materialize.
Eric Minick from IBM, and Robert Reeves, database guru from Datical, discuss what makes certain things hard to deploy, and practical techniques and tools for deploying them. Topics covered include:
* What causes certain deployments to be trickier to automate than others
* Successful patterns for overcoming those challenges
* Application of those techniques to mainframe changes, WebSphere configuration and database schema updates

How to Position Your Globus Data Portal for Success Ten Good PracticesGlobus
Science gateways allow science and engineering communities to access shared data, software, computing services, and instruments. Science gateways have gained a lot of traction in the last twenty years, as evidenced by projects such as the Science Gateways Community Institute (SGCI) and the Center of Excellence on Science Gateways (SGX3) in the US, The Australian Research Data Commons (ARDC) and its platforms in Australia, and the projects around Virtual Research Environments in Europe. A few mature frameworks have evolved with their different strengths and foci and have been taken up by a larger community such as the Globus Data Portal, Hubzero, Tapis, and Galaxy. However, even when gateways are built on successful frameworks, they continue to face the challenges of ongoing maintenance costs and how to meet the ever-expanding needs of the community they serve with enhanced features. It is not uncommon that gateways with compelling use cases are nonetheless unable to get past the prototype phase and become a full production service, or if they do, they don't survive more than a couple of years. While there is no guaranteed pathway to success, it seems likely that for any gateway there is a need for a strong community and/or solid funding streams to create and sustain its success. With over twenty years of examples to draw from, this presentation goes into detail for ten factors common to successful and enduring gateways that effectively serve as best practices for any new or developing gateway.
Enhancing Research Orchestration Capabilities at ORNL.pdfGlobus
Cross-facility research orchestration comes with ever-changing constraints regarding the availability and suitability of various compute and data resources. In short, a flexible data and processing fabric is needed to enable the dynamic redirection of data and compute tasks throughout the lifecycle of an experiment. In this talk, we illustrate how we easily leveraged Globus services to instrument the ACE research testbed at the Oak Ridge Leadership Computing Facility with flexible data and task orchestration capabilities.
First Steps with Globus Compute Multi-User EndpointsGlobus
In this presentation we will share our experiences around getting started with the Globus Compute multi-user endpoint. Working with the Pharmacology group at the University of Auckland, we have previously written an application using Globus Compute that can offload computationally expensive steps in the researcher's workflows, which they wish to manage from their familiar Windows environments, onto the NeSI (New Zealand eScience Infrastructure) cluster. Some of the challenges we have encountered were that each researcher had to set up and manage their own single-user globus compute endpoint and that the workloads had varying resource requirements (CPUs, memory and wall time) between different runs. We hope that the multi-user endpoint will help to address these challenges and share an update on our progress here.

Understanding Globus Data Transfers with NetSageGlobus
NetSage is an open privacy-aware network measurement, analysis, and visualization service designed to help end-users visualize and reason about large data transfers. NetSage traditionally has used a combination of passive measurements, including SNMP and flow data, as well as active measurements, mainly perfSONAR, to provide longitudinal network performance data visualization. It has been deployed by dozens of networks world wide, and is supported domestically by the Engagement and Performance Operations Center (EPOC), NSF #2328479. We have recently expanded the NetSage data sources to include logs for Globus data transfers, following the same privacy-preserving approach as for Flow data. Using the logs for the Texas Advanced Computing Center (TACC) as an example, this talk will walk through several different example use cases that NetSage can answer, including: Who is using Globus to share data with my institution, and what kind of performance are they able to achieve? How many transfers has Globus supported for us? Which sites are we sharing the most data with, and how is that changing over time? How is my site using Globus to move data internally, and what kind of performance do we see for those transfers? What percentage of data transfers at my institution used Globus, and how did the overall data transfer performance compare to the Globus users?
Climate Science Flows: Enabling Petabyte-Scale Climate Analysis with the Eart...Globus
The Earth System Grid Federation (ESGF) is a global network of data servers that archives and distributes the planet’s largest collection of Earth system model output for thousands of climate and environmental scientists worldwide. Many of these petabyte-scale data archives are located in proximity to large high-performance computing (HPC) or cloud computing resources, but the primary workflow for data users consists of transferring data, and applying computations on a different system. As a part of the ESGF 2.0 US project (funded by the United States Department of Energy Office of Science), we developed pre-defined data workflows, which can be run on-demand, capable of applying many data reduction and data analysis to the large ESGF data archives, transferring only the resultant analysis (ex. visualizations, smaller data files). In this talk, we will showcase a few of these workflows, highlighting how Globus Flows can be used for petabyte-scale climate analysis.
