IT organisations are measured based on how they mitigate risk and ensure changes adhere to compliance policies. High-performing organisations pull Information Security earlier into the development process by automating compliance tests.
Becoming a high-performing, risk averse organisation is about two things:
• How frequently (and automatically & trivially) you can run compliance assessments;
• and once you discover vulnerabilities, how quickly you can then remediate them.
Are you ready to bridge the gap between DevOps & InfoSec?
This document discusses lessons learned from enterprise DevOps implementations. It begins with an overview comparing DevOps to "enterprise DevOps" which involves more complex environments requiring a different balance of automation, visibility and control. It then outlines 5 key lessons: 1) DevOps initiatives require a balance of top-down and bottom-up approaches, 2) cross-cutting concerns like security and compliance must be addressed, 3) standardization is important but too much can stifle innovation, 4) DevOps involves expanding beyond development and operations to include other groups like QA, and 5) organizations tend to focus internally on automation versus externally on customer impact. Examples are provided for how these lessons can be applied to reduce handover time, speed

ensure automation in the true sense.
DevOps is fast becoming adopted as the environment for product
development. It facilitates closer integration of development and operations
teams, reducing the time needed to develop and deploy a product. However,
it is still in its early stages and the teams continue to work in silos due to the
different kinds of tools they need suited to their needs.
An IP-driven testing framework like iSAFE can be the bulwark on which the development, testing and operations teams can integrate more seamlessly,
as it provides one key feature needed when handling such a comprehensive
environment – traceability. The other advantages, of course, are reusability,
automated alerts and shorter testing periods, thus aiding in the quick time-to-market
needs of the organizations.

Deploying NGINX in Cloud Native KubernetesKangaroot
Using cloud-native application services is easy, it “just works”. Many customers choose them without giving it a second thought. However, these app services vary from cloud to cloud, with differing levels of quality and numbers of features making visibility and control inconsistent across clouds.
And then there is cost…it’s hard to know what your deployment is going to cost until after it’s been built. Often the services must be compiled in a piecemeal fashion and many products carry bloated code that increases costs.
Finally, security is often an afterthought. Moreover, SecOps teams struggle to keep up with the breakneck app release cadence that has become typical. Often they are seen as DevOps viewing them as a major constraint on the ability to deliver software quickly.
In this workshop, we showcase the NGINX solutions for cloud native Kubernetes that will allow you to:
- Reduce tool sprawl and provide a standard set of services
- Control costs with lightweight and easy solutions
- Bring teams together with automation and self‑service capabilities
Cloud demystified, what remains after the fog has lifted. Kangaroot
The document provides an introduction to cloud computing concepts from Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) to Platform as a Service (PaaS) to Software as a Service (SaaS) to Database as a Service (DBaaS). It discusses different cloud models including private, public, multi-cloud and hybrid clouds. It also covers cloud native technologies like Kubernetes and microservices. The document cautions that while cloud promises flexibility and agility, the realities of cloud adoption require assessing one's specific business needs and whether a cloud provider can truly deliver the desired advantages. It promotes BigAnimal as a fully managed PostgreSQL database service in the cloud to help enterprises with their cloud journeys.
From NetOps to DevOps, modern app teams need a self‑service, API‑driven platform that integrates easily into CI/CD workflows to accelerate app deployment and makes app lifecycle management easier – whether your app has a hybrid or microservices architecture.
Built to manage NGINX Plus instances, NGINX Controller is cloud‑native, secure, and high‑performance. During this webinar, we demonstrate how NGINX Controller can streamline the management of your NGINX Application Services.

Quality Patents: Patents That Stand the Test of TimeAurora Consulting
Is your patent a vanity piece of paper for your office wall? Or is it a reliable, defendable, assertable, property right? The difference is often quality.
Is your patent simply a transactional cost and a large pile of legal bills for your startup? Or is it a leverageable asset worthy of attracting precious investment dollars, worth its cost in multiples of valuation? The difference is often quality.
Is your patent application only good enough to get through the examination process? Or has it been crafted to stand the tests of time and varied audiences if you later need to assert that document against an infringer, find yourself litigating with it in an Article 3 Court at the hands of a judge and jury, God forbid, end up having to defend its validity at the PTAB, or even needing to use it to block pirated imports at the International Trade Commission? The difference is often quality.
Quality will be our focus for a good chunk of the remainder of this season. What goes into a quality patent, and where possible, how do you get it without breaking the bank?

The Rise of Supernetwork Data Intensive ComputingLarry Smarr
Invited Remote Lecture to SC21

Mitigating the Impact of State Management in Cloud Stream Processing SystemsScyllaDB
Stream processing is a crucial component of modern data infrastructure, but constructing an efficient and scalable stream processing system can be challenging. Decoupling compute and storage architecture has emerged as an effective solution to these challenges, but it can introduce high latency issues, especially when dealing with complex continuous queries that necessitate managing extra-large internal states.
In this talk, we focus on addressing the high latency issues associated with S3 storage in stream processing systems that employ a decoupled compute and storage architecture. We delve into the root causes of latency in this context and explore various techniques to minimize the impact of S3 latency on stream processing performance. Our proposed approach is to implement a tiered storage mechanism that leverages a blend of high-performance and low-cost storage tiers to reduce data movement between the compute and storage layers while maintaining efficient processing.
Throughout the talk, we will present experimental results that demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach in mitigating the impact of S3 latency on stream processing. By the end of the talk, attendees will have gained insights into how to optimize their stream processing systems for reduced latency and improved cost-efficiency.

Coordinate Systems in FME 101 - Webinar SlidesSafe Software
If you’ve ever had to analyze a map or GPS data, chances are you’ve encountered and even worked with coordinate systems. As historical data continually updates through GPS, understanding coordinate systems is increasingly crucial. However, not everyone knows why they exist or how to effectively use them for data-driven insights.
During this webinar, you’ll learn exactly what coordinate systems are and how you can use FME to maintain and transform your data’s coordinate systems in an easy-to-digest way, accurately representing the geographical space that it exists within. During this webinar, you will have the chance to:
- Enhance Your Understanding: Gain a clear overview of what coordinate systems are and their value
- Learn Practical Applications: Why we need datams and projections, plus units between coordinate systems
- Maximize with FME: Understand how FME handles coordinate systems, including a brief summary of the 3 main reprojectors
- Custom Coordinate Systems: Learn how to work with FME and coordinate systems beyond what is natively supported
- Look Ahead: Gain insights into where FME is headed with coordinate systems in the future
Don’t miss the opportunity to improve the value you receive from your coordinate system data, ultimately allowing you to streamline your data analysis and maximize your time. See you there!
Fluttercon 2024: Showing that you care about security - OpenSSF Scorecards fo...Chris Swan
Have you noticed the OpenSSF Scorecard badges on the official Dart and Flutter repos? It's Google's way of showing that they care about security. Practices such as pinning dependencies, branch protection, required reviews, continuous integration tests etc. are measured to provide a score and accompanying badge.
You can do the same for your projects, and this presentation will show you how, with an emphasis on the unique challenges that come up when working with Dart and Flutter.
The session will provide a walkthrough of the steps involved in securing a first repository, and then what it takes to repeat that process across an organization with multiple repos. It will also look at the ongoing maintenance involved once scorecards have been implemented, and how aspects of that maintenance can be better automated to minimize toil.

Are you interested in dipping your toes in the cloud native observability waters, but as an engineer you are not sure where to get started with tracing problems through your microservices and application landscapes on Kubernetes? Then this is the session for you, where we take you on your first steps in an active open-source project that offers a buffet of languages, challenges, and opportunities for getting started with telemetry data.
The project is called openTelemetry, but before diving into the specifics, we’ll start with de-mystifying key concepts and terms such as observability, telemetry, instrumentation, cardinality, percentile to lay a foundation. After understanding the nuts and bolts of observability and distributed traces, we’ll explore the openTelemetry community; its Special Interest Groups (SIGs), repositories, and how to become not only an end-user, but possibly a contributor.We will wrap up with an overview of the components in this project, such as the Collector, the OpenTelemetry protocol (OTLP), its APIs, and its SDKs.
Attendees will leave with an understanding of key observability concepts, become grounded in distributed tracing terminology, be aware of the components of openTelemetry, and know how to take their first steps to an open-source contribution!
Key Takeaways: Open source, vendor neutral instrumentation is an exciting new reality as the industry standardizes on openTelemetry for observability. OpenTelemetry is on a mission to enable effective observability by making high-quality, portable telemetry ubiquitous. The world of observability and monitoring today has a steep learning curve and in order to achieve ubiquity, the project would benefit from growing our contributor community.
