From the Blogosphere VMware’s Mysterious Containerization Strategy | @DevOpsSummit #DevOps #Containers #Microservices
Going forward, enterprise customers will heavily invest in cloud-native platforms
Oct. 15, 2015 11:00 PM
In a report titled “Forecast Analysis: Enterprise Application Software, Worldwide, 2Q15 Update,” Gartner analysts highlighted the increasing trend of application modernization among enterprises. According to a recent survey, 45% of respondents stated that modernization of installed on-premises core enterprise applications is one of the top five priorities.
Gartner also predicted that by 2020, 75% of enterprise applications will follow the model of build instead of buy. This is an indication of organizations moving towards developing cloud-native, Software as a Service (SaaS) applications instead of buying shrink-wrapped or packaged applications.
The road to cloud-native computing
Going forward, enterprise customers will heavily invest in cloud-native platforms that will support them in developing and deploying modern, multi-tenant, elastic, and composite applications. Sensing this opportunity, traditional infrastructure vendors such as HP, Microsoft, VMware, and Red Hat started to invest in cloud-native platforms.
The recently formed Cloud Native Computing Foundation has almost every platform company except Microsoft. VMware and Pivotal are trying to stay relevant in the era of post-virtualization. Both VMware and Microsoft have significant investments in hypervisors and virtualization technology; interestingly, both have a similar approach to embrace and extend containerization.
At the recently held VMworld 2015 conference, VMware unveiled a set of new technologies that will enable customers to adopt the cloud-native paradigm while easily extending the legacy applications to containers. While Microsoft is pushing Windows Containers and Hyper-V Containers, VMware is betting on vSphere Integrated Containers and Photon Platform. Read the original blog entry...

Presentation Slides By Pat Romanski  WebRTC: together these advances have created a perfect storm of technologies that are disrupting and transforming classic communications models and ecosystems.
In his session at WebRTC Summit, Cary Bran, VP of Innovation and New Ventures at Plantronics and PLT Labs, provided an overview of this technological shift, including associated business and consumer communications impacts, and opportunities it may enable, complement or entirely transform. Mar. 8, 2016 11:00 PM EST Reads: 1,774 | By Elizabeth White  WebRTC sits at the intersection between VoIP and the Web. As such, it poses some interesting challenges for those developing services on top of it, but also for those who need to test and monitor these services.
In his session at WebRTC Summit, Tsahi Levent-Levi, co-founder of testRTC, reviewed the various challenges posed by WebRTC when it comes to testing and monitoring and on ways to overcome them. Mar. 7, 2016 07:00 PM EST Reads: 454 | By Liz McMillan  WebRTC has had a real tough three or four years, and so have those working with it. Only a few short years ago, the development world were excited about WebRTC and proclaiming how awesome it was.
You might have played with the technology a couple of years ago, only to find the extra infrastructure requirements were painful to implement and poorly documented. This probably left a bitter taste in your mouth, especially when things went wrong. Mar. 6, 2016 01:00 PM EST Reads: 1,413 | By Liz McMillan  WebRTC is about the data channel as much as about video and audio conferencing. However, basically all commercial WebRTC applications have been built with a focus on audio and video. The handling of “data” has been limited to text chat and file download – all other data sharing seems to end with screensharing. What is holding back a more intensive use of peer-to-peer data?
In her session at @ThingsExpo, Dr Silvia Pfeiffer, WebRTC Applications Team Lead at National ICT Australia, looked at diffe... Mar. 6, 2016 11:00 AM EST Reads: 578 | By Pat Romanski  With microservices, SOA and distributed architectures becoming more popular, it is becoming increasingly harder to keep track of where time is spent in a distributed application when trying to diagnose performance problems. Distributed tracing systems attempt to address this problem by following application requests across service boundaries, persisting metadata along the way that provide context for fine-grained performance monitoring. Mar. 4, 2016 11:00 AM EST Reads: 1,388 | By Elizabeth White  At first adopted by enterprises to consolidate physical servers, virtualization is now widely used in cloud computing to offer elasticity and scalability.

The acceleration of application delivery for the business with DevOps Jan. 31, 2016 06:30 PM EST Reads: 1,316 | By Liz McMillan  For it to be SOA – let alone SOA done right – we need to pin down just what "SOA done wrong" might be. First-generation SOA with Web Services and ESBs, perhaps?
But then there's second-generation, REST-based SOA. More lightweight and cloud-friendly, but many REST-based SOA practices predate the microservices wave.
Today, microservices and containers go hand in hand – only the details of "container-oriented architecture" are largely on the drawing board – and are not likely to look much like S...

Jan. 31, 2016 10:00 AM EST Reads: 1,835 | By Elizabeth White  For manufacturers, the Internet of Things (IoT) represents a jumping-off point for innovation, jobs, and revenue creation. But to adequately seize the opportunity, manufacturers must design devices that are interconnected, can continually sense their environment and process huge amounts of data.
As a first step, manufacturers must embrace a new product development ecosystem in order to support these products. Jan. 31, 2016 10:00 AM EST Reads: 1,308 | By Elizabeth White  Everyone talks about continuous integration and continuous delivery but those are just two ends of the pipeline. In the middle of DevOps is continuous testing (CT), and many organizations are struggling to implement continuous testing effectively. After all, without continuous testing there is no delivery. And Lab-As-A-Service (LaaS) enhances the CT with dynamic on-demand self-serve test topologies. CT together with LAAS make a powerful combination that perfectly serves complex software developm... Jan. 31, 2016 07:00 AM EST Reads: 1,550 | By Elizabeth White  Clearly the way forward is to move to cloud be it bare metal, VMs or containers.

@DevOpsSummit Blogs By Victoria Livschitz  DevOps Summit at Cloud Expo 2014 Silicon Valley was a terrific event for us. The Qubell booth was crowded on all three days. We ran demos every 30 minutes with folks lining up to get a seat and usually standing around. It was great to meet and talk to over 500 people! My keynote was well received and so was Stan's joint presentation with RingCentral on Devops for BigData. I also participated in two Power Panels – ‘Women in Technology’ and ‘Why DevOps Is Even More Important than You Think,’ both ... Mar. 15, 2016 01:45 AM EDT Reads: 10,923 | By Gary Kaiser  Why a discussion around Application Performance Analytics? There’s a lot of buzz in this industry around the topic of performance analytics – an informal subset of IT operations analytics (ITOA) – as a solution to the growing mountains of monitoring data and the increasing complexity of application and network architectures.
At the same time, there exist many purpose-built performance analysis solutions. Many are domain-centric – server monitoring and network monitoring, for example – while som... Mar. 15, 2016 12:45 AM EDT Reads: 521 | By PagerDuty Blog  No matter how resiliently you build your application, incidents will happen. And as your application grows, the complexity of troubleshooting and resolving an incident also grows. With prior virtualization technologies, this might involve a virtualization admin, a network admin, a storage admin, and an applications developer to sort through the issue, put a resolution in place, and determine a root cause. With microservices architectures and Docker containers, this complexity is taken to the nex... Mar. 14, 2016 09:45 PM EDT Reads: 742 | By Liz McMillan Keeping pace with advancements in software delivery processes and tooling is taxing even for the most proficient organizations. Point tools, platforms, open source and the increasing adoption of private and public cloud services requires strong engineering rigor – all in the face of developer demands to use the tools of choice. As Agile has settled in as a mainstream practice, now DevOps has emerged as the next wave to improve software delivery speed and output. To make DevOps work, organization... Mar. 14, 2016 08:00 PM EDT Reads: 431 | By SmartBear Blog  APIs have taken the world by storm in recent years.
The use of APIs has gone beyond just traditional "software" companies, to companies and organizations across industries using APIs to share information and power their applications.
For some organizations, APIs are the biggest revenue drivers. For example, Salesforce generates nearly 50% of annual revenue through APIs. In other cases, APIs can increase a business's footprint and initiate collaboration. Netflix, for example, reported over 5 bi... Mar. 14, 2016 08:00 PM EDT Reads: 572 | By Automic Blog  Both prospects and customers often ask me why we need an artifact repository. Some think that as their favorite CI (Continuous Integration) server such as Jenkins already stores the output of each build, maybe there's no need to add an artifact repository to their existing tool chain. Others simply wonder why they need such a repository at all.
In this blog post I'll discuss why it's essential for any continuous delivery and deployment project to version everything, and why artifact repositorie... Mar. 14, 2016 06:15 PM EDT Reads: 622 | By Steven Mandel  While this book was designed to be used by Windows System Administrators, any developer who has ever needed to write a batch (.bat) file will welcome with open arms the flexibility and power provided by Windows PowerShell.
This book is up to date covering all the way through PowerShell version 5. There are 24 chapters that cover a wide array of topics. In addition, any developer who has worked with the .NET framework will enjoy PowerShell, which is a command-line interface built on the .NET Fr... Mar. 14, 2016 05:15 PM EDT Reads: 565 | By Automic Blog  OK so here goes: why is DevOps not always the right way to go? Simply because not all systems are born equal. For a backend master customer data system, stability trumps iteration. Fail fast and roll forward simply aren't sustainable in many of today's most core business applications such as banking, retail, media, manufacturing or any other industry vertical. Clearly these enterprises still need to innovate and provide new and exciting ways for their customers to engage through web and mobile, ... Mar. 14, 2016 04:30 PM EDT Reads: 185 | By Jason Bloomberg  Today most enterprises are undergoing massive shifts under the name digital transformation. Let’s say you successfully navigate this transformation. Will you be done? Of course not – change will be ongoing and even accelerating.
So, is it good enough to struggle through one transformation after another? Or is the more strategic decision to become better able to deal with such change – in other words, to be more agile? Mar. 14, 2016 04:15 PM EDT Reads: 235 | By Mike Kavis  Our guest on the podcast this week is JP Morgenthal, Global Solutions Executive at CSC. We discuss the architecture of microservices and how to overcome the challenge of making different tools work together. We learn about the importance of hiring engineers who can compose services into an integrated system. Mar. 14, 2016 02:15 PM EDT Reads: 736 | By SOASTA Blog  Amidst the hustle and bustle that was the recent eTail West, one thing was clear to me: many online retailers haven’t figured out the empirical relationship between customer experience and digital performance. Why? Many brands simply do not pay much attention to the infrastructure that powers their digital business. Yet behind every interaction between consumers and […] Mar. 14, 2016 02:00 PM EDT Reads: 253 | By Anders Wallgren  Earlier this week, we hosted our Continuous Discussion video podcast, this time discussing ITIL and DevOps. The episode featured expert panelists Jan-Joost Bouwman (ING), Kaimar Karu (AXELOS), Jeff Sussna (DevOps writer and speaker) and Simon Morris (ServiceNow). During our discussion, we uncovered the similarities and differences between ITIL and DevOps, and discussed tips for how to align the two methodologies in an organization. Read on for the top highlights, best practices and key takeaways... Mar. 14, 2016 12:30 PM EDT Reads: 236 | By XebiaLabs Blog  If you’re not employing DevOps tools and methods, chances are your software delivery deployment practices look something like this:
It takes you weeks, sometimes months to deploy new software to production.
You test for bugs and try to pinpoint why your deployment only works in the development environment and not the production one.
Because your development and operational teams are separated, there is a lack of clear communication and instruction between the two, leading to a wide range of i... Mar. 14, 2016 12:15 PM EDT Reads: 196 | By SmartBear Blog  With new virtualization tools popping up seemingly everywhere, you might wonder why so many testers, developers, QA Engineers, and Operations professionals are virtualizing their web services.
Why should you virtualize your APIs?
SmartBear Software recently conducted a survey of more than 2,300 software professionals, working in a variety of different roles in more than 50 industries, and found that ease of use, responsiveness/performance, and service reliability/uptime are the three most impo... Mar. 14, 2016 12:00 PM EDT Reads: 607 | By VictorOps Blog  One of the most common early goals of implementing DevOps principles is a deep understanding of our systems in a stable state. However, this objective is not a “once and done” effort. It is important to continuously circle back in some form (a feedback loop) as changes are introduced. It’s an ongoing exercise for an entire organization as our processes, tools, and teams improve continuously over time. Mar. 14, 2016 11:45 AM EDT Reads: 207 | By SmartBear Blog  Gone are the days when SOAP, REST and microservices were buzzwords that did not apply to you.
Gone are also the days when monolithic applications were built by organizations end-end.
The availability of specialized components and services from different organizations and the access to these components through RESTful services has resulted in a major inflexion point with APIs becoming the mechanism for data interchange and systems to interact.
Most organizations are familiar with the benefits ... Mar. 14, 2016 10:00 AM EDT Reads: 926 | By Craig Lowell  If your website receives heavy traffic and you are hosted across multiple infrastructures across the world or you are using multiple CDNs, then you ought to use a DNS Load Balancer to reroute traffic for better performance.
While there are some large companies who create their own DNS load balancing system, which is complex and tedious to implement and manage, some companies make life easier by opting for ready-made solutions such as those from Cedexis, Dyn, NSONE, Rage4 etc
Most of the above ... Mar. 14, 2016 09:45 AM EDT Reads: 561 | By XebiaLabs Blog  The rise of microservices has enabled teams to branch out from developing for innately complicated, monolithic applications and work with small, flexible and comparatively simple components. But when these components (numbering anywhere from the hundreds to the thousands for one application) need to work together, traditional tools and release processes can be lacking. Organizations need to adopt new delivery models, release strategies and tooling that can handle this new multitude of services ... Mar. 14, 2016 09:30 AM EDT Reads: 606 | By SmartBear Blog  While test management can sometimes be viewed as a blocker on Agile teams, there are a number of benefits of test management that can't be ignored. This is especially true for teams that want to improve their efficiency and avoid costly setbacks.
By improving efficiency and reducing waste in the testing process, test management helps to better prioritize while simultaneously reducing the time teams spend on problems after the software is delivered. Mar. 14, 2016 09:30 AM EDT Reads: 561 | By David H Deans  CEOs across the globe now view business technology as a key component of their growth strategies. That’s why the role of today’s Chief Information Officer (CIO) has become increasingly challenging. Mounting pressure to innovate has left many CIOs flat-footed -- essentially playing catch-up trying to integrate new technologies, rather than driving them. A recent International Data Corporation (IDC ) study examined CIO and Line of Business (LOB) executive perceptions of IT organizatio... Mar. 14, 2016 09:00 AM EDT Reads: 339 |
