Registration for the First International WebRTC Summit (@WebRTCSummit) is
now open. WebRTC Summit will take place Nov 6-7, 2013, at the Santa Clara
Convention Center, Santa Clara, CA.
WebRTC (Web Real-Time Communication) is an open source project supported by
Google, Mozilla and Opera that aims to enable browser-to-browser applications
for voice calling, video chat, and P2P file sharing without plugins. Its
mission is "To enable rich, high quality, RTC applications to be developed in
the browser via simple Javascript APIs and HTML5."

In his keynote at 19th Cloud Expo, Sheng Liang, co-founder and CEO of
Rancher Labs, discussed the technological advances and new business
opportunities created by the rapid adoption of containers. With the success
of Amazon Web Services (AWS) and various open source technologies used to
build private clouds, cloud computing has become an essential component of IT
strategy.

Given my (well-known and enduring) interest in all aspects of services, I
have followed Martin Fowler's writing on microservices. But I will admit I
always found the original paper more confusing than insightful. And in my
client work I have resisted the temptation to use a microservices pattern,
for precisely the reason that it would more than likely confuse. So I was
interested to see the book Building Microservices by Sam Newman published
last month, particularly as Newman is part of the Thoughtworks stable, which
presumably means it is authoritative.
Right off the bat, Newman advises that we should "think of microservices as a
specific approach for SOA in the same way that XP or Scrum are specific
approaches for Agile Software development". These analogies are very
interesting because my expectation was that microservices is a pattern. So I
might infer that micr... (more)

Accordingly, attendees at the upcoming 20th Cloud Expo at the Javits Center
in New York, June 6-8, 2017, will find fresh new content in a new track
called FinTech, which will incorporate machine learning, artificial
intelligence, deep learning, and blockchain into one track.
Financial enterprises in New York City, London, Singapore, and other world
financial capitals are embracing a new generation of smart, automated FinTech
that eliminates many cumbersome, slow, and expensive intermediate processes
from their businesses.
FinTech brings efficiency as well as the ability to deliver new services and
a much improved customer experience throughout the global financial services
industry. FinTech is a natural fit with cloud computing, as new services are

At its core DevOps is all about collaboration. The lines of communication
must be opened and it takes some effort to ensure that they stay that way.
It's easy to pay lip service to trends and talk about implementing new
methodologies, but without action, real benefits cannot be realized. Success
requires planning, advocates empowered to effect change, and, of course, the
right tooling.
To bring about a cultural shift it's important to share challenges. In simple
terms, ensuring that everyone knows what everyone else is doing can create a
real team spirit and social cohesion that will drive DevOps forward. Here are
six tips that can be implemented to help you get there.
1. Stand-ups

by addressing three simple questions:

Onalytica analyzed tweets over the last 6 months mentioning the keywords M2M
OR "Machine to Machine." They then identified the top 100 most influential
brands and individuals leading the discussion on Twitter.
Machine to Machine (M2M) refers to direct communication between devices using
any communications channel, including wired and wireless. The M2M market is
undergoing a fast transformation as enterprises are increasingly realizing
the value of connecting geographically dispersed people, devices, sensors and
machines to corporate networks. Today, industries such as healthcare,
automotive, oil and gas, precision agriculture, military, government, smart

In today's enterprise, digital transformation represents organizational
change even more so than technology change, as customer preferences and
behavior drive end-to-end transformation across lines of business as well as
IT. To capitalize on the ubiquitous disruption driving this transformation,
companies must be able to innovate at an increasingly rapid pace.
Traditional approaches for driving innovation are now woefully inadequate for
keeping up with the breadth of disruption and change facing today's
increasingly digital enterprise. It's time to rethink how we innovate,
leveraging the very turbulence that drives the business to change.

architecting agility for the enterprise and president of Intellyx, provided

CloudEXPO Stories By Pat Romanski  92% of enterprises are using the public cloud today. As a result, simply being in the cloud is no longer enough to remain competitive. The benefit of reduced costs has normalized while the market forces are demanding more innovation at faster release cycles. Enter Cloud Native! Cloud Native enables a microservices driven architecture. The shift from monolithic to microservices yields a lot of benefits - but if not done right - can quickly outweigh the benefits. The effort required in monitoring, tracing, circuit breakers, routing, load balancing, etc. for thousands of microservices can become overwhelming. This talk will address strategies to run & manage microservices from 0 to 60 using Istio and other tools in a cloud native world. Sep. 17, 2018 04:00 PM EDT | By Zakia Bouachraoui  It's clear: serverless is here to stay. The adoption does come with some needed changes, within both application development and operations. That means serverless is also changing the way we leverage public clouds. Truth-be-told, many enterprise IT shops were so happy to get out of the management of physical servers within a data center that many limitations of the existing public IaaS clouds were forgiven. However, now that we've lived a few years with public IaaS clouds, developers and CloudOps pros are giving a huge thumbs down to the constant monitoring of servers, provisioned or not, that's required to support the workloads. Sep. 11, 2018 04:00 PM EDT | By Liz McMillan  In very short order, the term "Blockchain" has lost an incredible amount of meaning. With too many jumping on the bandwagon, the market is inundated with projects and use cases that miss the real potential of the technology. We have to begin removing Blockchain from the conversation and ground ourselves in the motivating principles of the technology itself; whether it is consumer privacy, data ownership, trust or even participation in the global economy, the world is faced with serious problems that this technology could ultimately help us in at least partially solving. But if we do not unpack what is real and what is not, we can lose sight of the potential. Sep. 11, 2018 03:00 PM EDT | By Pat Romanski  Serveless Architectures brings the ability to independently scale, deploy and heal based on workloads and move away from monolithic designs. From the front-end, middle-ware and back-end layers, serverless workloads potentially have a larger security risk surface due to the many moving pieces. This talk will focus on key areas to consider for securing end to end, from dev to prod. We will discuss patterns for end to end TLS, session management, scaling to absorb attacks and mitigation techniques. Sep. 9, 2018 08:45 AM EDT Reads: 1,525 | By Pat Romanski  The standardization of container runtimes and images has sparked the creation of an almost overwhelming number of new open source projects that build on and otherwise work with these specifications. Of course, there's Kubernetes, which orchestrates and manages collections of containers. It was one of the first and best-known examples of projects that make containers truly useful for production use. However, more recently, the container ecosystem has truly exploded. A service mesh like Istio addresses many of the challenges faced by developers and operators as monolithic applications transition towards a distributed microservice architecture. A tracing tool like Jaeger analyzes what's happening as a transaction moves through a distributed system. Monitoring software like Prometheus captures time-series events for real-time alerting and other uses. Grafeas and Kritis provide security polic... Sep. 8, 2018 09:45 PM EDT Reads: 3,205 |
