The Reality of Managing Microservices in Your CD Pipeline

The document discusses a career day presentation about DevOps engineering and cloud career paths. The presentation covers what DevOps is, the roles of developers and operations teams, DevOps practices like continuous integration and delivery, and AWS services that can be used as part of a DevOps approach like CodePipeline, CodeBuild, and CloudFormation. It emphasizes that DevOps is a culture of collaboration between development and operations and encourages automating as many processes as possible.

Migrating enterprise apps to the cloud may sound like a daunting leap, but it doesn’t have to be! Hear how Lincoln Financial Group, a 113-year old insurance institution is moving from a traditional development infrastructure organization to functional DevOps teams deploying applications to the cloud.

The document describes Deployit, an application release automation platform from XebiaLabs that optimizes the application deployment process. Deployit provides automated workflows to deploy applications across various infrastructure with benefits like reduced costs, accelerated time to market, and bridging the gap between development and operations.

Moka is an Indonesian company that supports 800 employees and provides various products and services for restaurants. It uses a DevOps approach with teams focused on infrastructure, databases, performance testing, and more. Teams work based on operational needs such as research, support, releases, and incident response. The company philosophy is to be cloud agnostic and cloud native to avoid vendor lock-in and facilitate disaster recovery planning. An example showed how the team identified a limitation of a monitoring tool and found an alternative solution to address it. The presentation encouraged collaboration to be brilliant together.

Can Agile projects be predictable? What do we need to predict? Is it cost, is it time to market or is it business value? In an outsourcing context, how does a service provider provide contractual certainty in an Agile project? Are solid engineering practices enough for bringing predictability in Agile? In this talk we will see various techniques which NIIT has used in bringing predictability in Agile projects for both itself and its customers.

DevOps has made great strides in reducing bottlenecks in the software delivery process. Yet, it is surprising how many organizations keep DevOps on a separate track from long-established IT service management (ITSM) implementations and systems such as ServiceNow. Consequently, development teams find it challenging to track features, user stories, and IT service requests across different tools for backlog management and ITSM. But how do they make sure tickets are closed when the work is complete? How can they ensure compliance? And can they answer the ultimate question: Which feature actually made it into which release?

With the advent of Software Defined Networking, Operations Teams are being challenged with increased flexibility in provisioning network services, but also additional complexity in managing these networks and network services end to end. Covered topics: • Evolving current network management strategies to address increased complexity from SDN/NFV • How to leverage existing network management investments and extend them to cover new management domains • Moving from operational silos to cross-services operations management in support of SDN/NFV (moving network management up the value chain) To learn more about how CA Services can accelerate your success in the application economy, please visit: https://www.slideshare.net/CAinc

DevOps aims to improve software development through collaboration between development and operations teams. This allows for more frequent and reliable deployments through automation and continuous integration. Key DevOps tools include version control systems, continuous integration servers, automation tools, and testing frameworks. Cloud services are well-suited for DevOps as they allow for flexible infrastructure provisioning and reduce time spent managing hardware. Common cloud service models are PaaS, SaaS, and IaaS, which provide platforms, software, and infrastructure respectively on a pay-per-use basis. While tools and cloud can help, people remain the most important factor in DevOps success.

You’re faced with the business imperative to deliver value to your customers faster, with less risk, and at enterprise scale. But where do you start? There are so many approaches and products for implementing continuous delivery (CD) of modern apps. Join our webinar to learn about three trends that can make your delivery pipelines inherently resilient, accessible, and continuous: ● continuous delivery as a relay race ● turning monitoring into automated action ● developer experience at the heart We’ll share a demo of a delivery pipeline that includes Concourse CI, Pivotal Build Service, and Spinnaker CD with Pivotal Container Service as the destination. You’ll learn how a loosely coupled pipeline can provide speed with guardrails, enabling you to scale delivery of your modern applications. This webinar is especially relevant for those who: ● think full software delivery automation is a pipe dream. ● have an app delivery pipeline that’s a brittle monolith to maintain. ● suspect all your delivery problems are solved with Kubernetes. Speakers: Olga Kundzich, Pivotal, Senior Product Manager Spinnaker Tony Vetter, Pivotal, Technical Product Marketing Manager Patricia Johnson, Pivotal, Product Marketing Manager CI/CD

Smartphones, wearables and IoT are driving an increase in app messaging and push notifications. Even SMS messaging has been overtaken by Over-the-Top (OTT) messaging. These trends are signaling a change in the experience paradigm, as mobile push replaces web-based pull interaction models. In this rapidly-changing, mobile-centric app world, how will you leverage the new “tap on the shoulder” to drive greater user and customer engagement? Join Mark D’Cunha, an expert in building mobile apps, platforms, products and services for media and telecom providers. This webinar explores how to design for the apps of the future. Topics covered include: - The role of push - Giving control to the user - Optimizing location and personalization - Selecting a platform for push services Watch the video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gtf0bTlYGzg Learn more here: http://pivotal.io/platform-as-a-service/pivotal-cloud-foundry Additional information here: http://pivotal.io/platform-as-a-service/webinar/five-steps-to-developing-push-based-apps-in-the-age-of-connected-devices

1. The document discusses how to build relationships with developers through authentic, applicable, and actionable developer experiences. 2. It recommends a 4 step approach of connection, control, content, and conversion to engage developers along their journey. 3. Community building, both online and in-person, is also emphasized as important for developing advocacy and stickiness.

DevOps combines software development and operations optimizing the development life cycle through continuous integration and delivery resulting Rapid Productization with superior quality. Here are the 5C's of DevOps that everyone must know.

It’s hard to believe, but DevOps has been around for nearly ten years. From its specialist “unicorn” origins to a broadly accepted set of principles adopted by companies of all sizes and stripe, it’s been one of the most transformative movements in information technology since the PC. What comes next? Forrester Principal Analyst and DevOps Lead Charles Betz shares his 2018 research and predictions for next year.

Accenture is migrating its application databases from virtual machines in IaaS to a PaaS model across multiple clouds including Azure and AWS. The goal is to eliminate 95% of virtual machines within 3 years to reduce costs and management responsibilities by leveraging cloud-native database services. Accenture is working with Microsoft to adopt Azure SQL managed instances and with AWS to migrate databases to Aurora to take advantage of PaaS offerings from major cloud providers.

Today’s digital economy and customer experience demands flawless service availability and reliability whilst delivering customer value at ever increasing pace. This rate and scale of change requires automation to assist teams as they continuously evolve digital products and services. Any compromised reliability or availability along the way means fundamentally taking two steps backwards in terms of customer experience and value delivery, instead of one step forward. To keep up constant development momentum as they scale services and experience, teams are turning to self-service observability for better insights and context that grow with their services, and allow development teams to focus their time on delivering the value that customers want. What you’ll learn: What does a truly self-service observability solution mean to you How customer value and experience insights are derived from your data How you can transform your data to enrich your data for more context How applying AI to your data continues to automate, automate, automate What AI techniques can benefit you and your processes
