Implement Advanced Scheduling Techniques in Kubernetes
Is advanced scheduling in Kubernetes achievable?
Yes, however, how do you properly accommodate every real-life scenario that a
Kubernetes user might encounter?
How do you leverage advanced scheduling techniques to shape and describe each
scenario in easy-to-use rules and configurations?
In his session at @DevOpsSummit at 21st Cloud Expo, Oleg Chunikhin, CTO at
Kublr, will answer these questions and demonstrate techniques for
implementing advanced scheduling. For example, using spot instances and
cost-effective resources on AWS, coupled with the ability to deliver a
minimum set of functionalities that cover the majority of needs - without
configuration complexity.
You'll get a run-down of the pitfalls and things to keep in mind for this
route.

DevOps vs SRE vs Cloud Native
DevOps is under attack because developers don't want to mess with
infrastructure. They will happily own their code into production, but want to
use platforms instead of raw automation. That's changing the landscape that
we understand as DevOps with both architecture concepts (CloudNative) and
process redefinition (SRE).
Rob Hirschfeld's recent work in Kubernetes operations has led to the
conclusion that containers and related platforms have changed the way we
should be thinking about DevOps and controlling infrastructure. The rise of
Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) is part of that redefinition of operations
vs development roles in organizations.
In his session at @DevOpsSummit at 21st Cloud Expo, Rob Hirschfeld, CEO and
co-founder of RackN, will explore this trend and discuss concrete ways to
cope with the coming changes. He'll look... (more)
CloudExpo | DXWorldEXPO have announced the conference tracks for Cloud Expo
2018, introducing DXWorldEXPO.
DXWordEXPO, colocated with Cloud Expo will be held June 5-7, 2018, at the
Javits Center in New York City, and November 6-8, 2018, at the Santa Clara
Convention Center, Santa Clara, CA.
Digital Transformation (DX) is a major focus with the introduction of DXWorld
Expo within the program. Successful transformation requires a laser focus on
being data-driven and on using all the tools available that enable
transformation if they plan to survive over the long term.
A total of 88% of Fortune 500 companies from a generation ago are now out of
business. Only 12% still survive. Similar percentages are found throughout
enterprises of all sizes.

Exceeding the Conventional Modes of Protecting Data: An Innovative Approach
to Cloud Security
In the fast-paced advances and popularity in cloud technology, one of the
most critical factors revolves around concerns for security of your critical
data. How to assure both your company and your customers they can confidently
trust and utilize your cloud environment is most often top on the list. There
is a method to evaluating and providing security that exceeds conventional
modes of protecting data both within the cloud as well externally on mobile
and other devices. With the public failure of barrier type security,
protecting data can now include encryption methods that protect it in storage
as well as when exchanging it outside the confines of a secure cloud.
In his session at 21st Cloud Expo, Thomas Fryer, CTO of Secure Channels Inc.,
will explain how and why data ... (more)
Containers 101: What You Need to Know
Containers are the future of web development, in large part thanks to
Docker's explosive growth. According to DataDog, 15 percent of hosts run
Docker, which is significantly up from the 6 percent of hosts running it at
this point in 2015. LinkedIn has also seen a 160 percent increase in profile
references to Docker in just the past year alone, indicating Docker has
become a much bigger priority for IT professionals looking for work. With
this technology primed to continue its exponential growth in the coming
years, here's a Q&A; rundown of the basics: consider it Containers 101.
What are containers, exactly? And why are they so rapidly grabbing developer
market share from virtual machines?
In order to better understand containers, it's helpful to consider them in
contrast to virtual machines.
A virtual machine (VM) is an emulatio... (more)
Container Development on Azure Made Easy with Helm and Draft
Microsoft Azure Container Services can be used for container deployment in a
variety of ways including support for Orchestrators like Kubernetes, Docker
Swarm and Mesos. However, the abstraction for app development that support
application self-healing, scaling and so on may not be at the right level.
Helm and Draft makes this a lot easier.
In this primarily demo-driven session at @DevOpsSummit at 21st Cloud Expo,
Raghavan "Rags" Srinivas, a Cloud Solutions Architect/Evangelist at
Microsoft, will cover Docker Swarm and Kubernetes deployments on Azure with
some simple examples. He will look at Helm and Draft and how they can
simplify app development significantly, like app scaling, rollback, etc. Helm
is a tool that streamlines installing and managing Kubernetes applications,
like the apt/yum/homebrew for K... (more)
Tracing Cloud Systems via ebpf
The session is centered around the tracing of systems on cloud using
technologies like ebpf. The goal is to talk about what this technology is all
about and what purpose it serves.
In his session at 21st Cloud Expo, Shashank Jain, Development Architect at
SAP, will touch upon concepts of observability in the cloud and also some of
the challenges we have. Generally most cloud-based monitoring tools capture
details at a very granular level. To troubleshoot problems this might not be
good enough.
We need more fine-grain details about the process running on a VM in terms of
state of socket connections, i/o being done at block level per process, etc.
This allows us to determine the bottlenecks a system is facing and is quite
useful for developers to optimize the system. Ebpf is positioned as a
low-overhead tracer so it can be used in prod... (more)
Agile Manufacturing: How and Why Cloud Based Principles Make Sense for
Industrial Companies
Large industrial manufacturing organizations are adopting the agile
principles of cloud software companies.
The industrial manufacturing development process has not scaled over time.
Now that design CAD teams are geographically distributed, centralizing their
work is key. With large multi-gigabyte projects, outdated tools have stifled
industrial team agility, time-to-market milestones, and impacted P&L;
stakeholders.
In his session at 21st Cloud Expo, Jacek Materna, CTO of Assembla, will
discuss how industrial manufacturing design companies want to adopt agile and
keep up with the cloud - but first, a few pillars of enterprise
requirements must be met:
Control/compliance features with ease of use Secure Record of change -
the truth source Enterprise class data security an... (more)

In this strange new world where more and more power is drawn from business technology, companies are effectively straddling two paths on the road to innovation and transformation into digital enterprises. The first path is the heritage trail – with “legacy” technology forming the background. Here, extant technologies are transformed by core IT teams to provide more API-driven approaches. Legacy systems can restrict companies that are transitioning into digital enterprises. To truly become a leader in the space, it’s necessary to accommodate, incorporate, and exploit the new breed of enterprise...

As a result, many firms employ new business models that place enormous importance on software-based innovations. They require not only skilled occupations, such as data analyst...
Smart cities have the potential to change our lives at so many levels for citizens: less pollution, reduced parking obstacles, better health, education and more energy savings. Real-time data streaming and the Internet of Things (IoT) possess the power to turn this vision into a reality.
