For Valentine's Day, here's a lighthearted look at the "relationship" between
two complementary technologies: service virtualization and cloud dev/test
labs.
Dear Service Virtualization,
Hey, I know it's been a while since we started being "a thing." When we met,
everyone said you were just mocking, and that I wasn't real enough to make a
living, with my head in the clouds. Yet, here we are, a few years later.
Service Virtualization, you complete me.
As a young Dev/Test Cloud, I always wanted to try new things. And what better
use for Cloud than experimenting with software for startup companies? I was
flexible, I thought I had the capacity to handle anything. I'd stay up all
night studying or partying, but sometimes I'd crash. So what if some college
kid's cloud-based photo-sharing site experiment goes down? It wasn't going to
impact anyone's life.
But when it came... (more)

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

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)

Financial Technology - or FinTech - Is Now Part of the @CloudExpo Program!
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
A daily team meeting where people get an opportunity to review their progress
by addressing three simple questions:
What did I do yesterday? What will I do today? What might block me fro... (more)

CloudEXPO Stories By Yeshim Deniz  The graph represents a network of 1,329 Twitter users whose recent tweets contained "#DevOps", or who were replied to or mentioned in those tweets, taken from a data set limited to a maximum of 18,000 tweets. The network was obtained from Twitter on Thursday, 10 January 2019 at 23:50 UTC.
The tweets in the network were tweeted over the 7-hour, 6-minute period from Thursday, 10 January 2019 at 16:29 UTC to Thursday, 10 January 2019 at 23:36 UTC.
Additional tweets that were mentioned in this data set were also collected from prior time periods. These tweets may expand the complete time period of the data. Jan. 29, 2019 11:45 AM EST | By Yeshim Deniz  The benefits of automated cloud deployments for speed, reliability and security are undeniable. The cornerstone of this approach, immutable deployment, promotes the idea of continuously rolling safe, stable images instead of trying to keep up with managing a fixed pool of virtual or physical machines. In this talk, we'll explore the immutable infrastructure pattern and how to use continuous deployment and continuous integration (CI/CD) process to build and manage server images for any platform. Then we'll show how automate deploying these images quickly and reliability with open DevOps tools like Terraform and Digital Rebar. Not only is this approach fast, it's also more secure and robust for operators. Jan. 29, 2019 11:45 AM EST | By Elizabeth White  As software becomes more and more complex, we, as software developers, have been splitting up our code into smaller and smaller components. This is also true for the environment in which we run our code: going from bare metal, to VMs to the modern-day Cloud Native world of containers, schedulers and micro services. While we have figured out how to run containerized applications in the cloud using schedulers, we've yet to come up with a good solution to bridge the gap between getting your containers from your laptop to the cloud.
How do we build software for containers? How do we ship containers? How do we do all of it without shooting ourselves in the foot?

Jan. 29, 2019 11:45 AM EST | By Chander Damodaran  Over the course of two days, in addition to insightful conversations and presentations delving into the industry's current pressing challenges, there was considerable buzz about digital transformation and how it is enabling global enterprises to accelerate business growth.
Blockchain has been a term that people hear but don't quite understand. The most common myths about blockchain include the assumption that it is private, or that there is only one blockchain, and the idea that blockchain is synonymous with Bitcoin. However, even with the confusion and uncertainty about blockchain, interest in the technology is growing. The obvious reason for that is the fact that it has huge potential for many sectors, including banking, telecom, insurance, and even government. Jan. 29, 2019 11:15 AM EST |
