Block Deduplication and Compression with VDO
Limited Capacity seats available

"Deduplication and compression have been core requests for Linux storage, but delivering these at performance and scale has been technologically difficult. The new kvdo device-mapper module, based on more than a decade of development, is a tried and tested solution that meets this need. kvdo provides fast, scalable, inline deduplication, compression, and 4K-granularity thin provisioning for any Linux block device. These benefits transfer to file systems and applications using the underlying storage.

VDO is simple to deploy across many use cases, but a few caveats apply due to the unpredictability of actual space free. This session will provide an overview of VDO and its deployment, a review of usage considerations, and a first-level introduction to its implementation internals."

Managing OpenShift from Installation and Beyond
Limited Capacity full

"In this hands-on session, attendees will experience firsthand how Ansible and Ansible Tower can be a central fixture within the enterprise by coordinating an installation of the Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform on top of the Amazon Web Services. Since containers can not only run mission critical applications, but also the components to manage the infrastructure, a containerized version of Red Hat CloudForms will then be deployed to provide insight into the runtime environment. The result is solution that demonstrates how the combination or the proper tools can solve the most complex challenges.

OpenShift - Access Denied
Limited Capacity filling up

"Containers are becoming the de facto standard for running applications in a cloud, which creates a growing need for a container orchestrator. This paradigm shift enables to run large and often distributed clusters efficiently. However, operators are still exposed to operating-system-level settings. Understanding how the container orchestrator works with the operating system is critical for the operation of a cluster, especially when talking about security.

In this workshop, we will briefly introduce OpenShift, persistent volumes, security context constraints, file permissions, SELinux, and how they all work together. Attendees will gain hands-on experience with genuine issues, and learn how to debug and find solutions to those issues. A laptop capable of running a VM is recommended."

Who needs containers in a serverless world?
Limited Capacity filling up

"With the rise of Docker, we have seen an unprecedented interest from developers in container technologies. Many agree that they are highly beneficial for modern practices like Agile and DevOps. But there is a new kid in town that proclaims a more radical approach called Serverless. It suggests that you should only write high-level functions and react to events. The underlying compute infrastructure is transparent to the user. That raises the question: Should you still write your own containers? And who now needs containers in a serverless world?

In this talk we confront these two approaches from a containers advocate and serverless fanboy viewpoints. We show the differences, individual strengths and weaknesses and where they complement each other."

Building Streaming Recommendation Engines on Spark
Limited Capacity seats available

"Collaborative filtering is a well known method to implement recommendation engines. Although modern techniques, such as Alternating Least Squares (ALS), allow us to perform rating predictions with large amounts of observations, typically ALS is implemented as a distributed batch algorithm where retraining must be performed with the entirety of the data. However, when dealing with large amounts of data as a stream, batch retraining might be problematic. In this talk Rui will guide us in building a streaming ALS implementation using Apache Spark and based on Stochastic Gradient Descent, where training can be performed using observations as they arrive. The advantages of real-time streaming collaborative filtering will be discussed as well as the scenarios where batch ALS might be preferable."

Trending: Serverless Computing
Limited Capacity seats available

"On the continuum from virtual machines to containers now Serverless presents a new alternative Cloud technology enabling developers to concentrate on their application and not the servers used to host them. The platform takes care of the infrastructure allowing it to scale or to be highly available.

There are enormous advantages allowing to easily fire up new applications and autoscale them as they go viral.

Let’s look at the public cloud offerings in the space (lambda, AF, GCF) and the Open Source projects (OpenWhisk, Fission, Serverless, OpenFaaS) and look at the pros & cons of each.

In what use cases is PaaS more interesting than Serverless?

There'll be demos of several Serverless frameworks including Apache OpenWhisk running on OpenShift."

Break&Fix with OpenShift
Limited Capacity filling up

Have you ever considered running an OpenShift cluster? Are you scared by the complexity? Join us in this workshop to break and fix some stuff to gain the confidence you need.
Each assistant will start with a non-working OpenShift cluster and the final target will be to run a provided containerized web application after we solve several small and related issues.
Hints will be provided every few minutes and there will be a mechanism to check current progress of the challenge.
Assistants will learn some troubleshooting techniques and experience how to solve some of the most common OpenShift operational and development problems.

Take a look at our GitHub repository for up to date details of how the workshop will be
https://github.com/ruromero/devconf

Important:
Try to come with a running minishift instance with the add-on installed and applied (see the instructions in the GitHub repository). This will save you time and avoid possible problems with the bandwidth

Lessons learned by OpenStack in GoodData
Limited Capacity seats available

"In GoodData we use OpenStack as a backbone of our cloud infrastructure. We specialize in Business Intelligence, mostly embedded analytics. We use various Open Source software to do our job and deliver results to our customers from their precious data. This mean real time computing of huge amount of data. By huge I mean many TBs. In this presentation I will describe our cloud infrastructure, talk about how we use OpenStack and what kind of problem we encounter every day. I hope this presentation can help users not to do our mistakes and will help developers to make (mostly) Open Stack better.

I will show how and what we use from OpenStack and describe it in details. I will also briefly discuss what we want to implement in near future and what kind of storage and hardware we are using."

Advanced releases and custom routing in OCP
Limited Capacity seats available

"Openshift is becoming more and more relevant in the container platform and PAAS area, with many developers and organizations already using it in production to deliver large scale, mission critical apps.
In this area, some of the most appreciated and used features are related to the advanced deployment techniques.
Since Openshift can easily spawn different versions of the same application and send traffic to them , it is an obvious option to help you implement rolling updates, Blue / Green deployments, canary and so on.
In this talk, we will start introducing different techniques on how to implement content based routing, in order to have advanced routing based on request / client supplied informations. We will talk about HAproxy, Camel and Istio."

How to pack more people on the bus?
Limited Capacity seats available

"In cloud things scale endlessly, right? Well, they do not. We hit these limits with our OpenShift Online clusters used for OpenShift.io pretty quickly as we ran Jenkins for each user.

We implemented a set of services to be able to control which Jenkins instances need to run and which can be idled. This talk will explain architecture of the solution and elaborate on motivations and caveats found during implementation."

Red Hat Container Development & OpenShift
Limited Capacity full

"In this hands-on lab, you'll learn how to create containerized applications and test them in a Red Hat OpenShift development cluster. You'll quickly develop a basic containerized application, break down an application into multiple containers, and then deploy these images to container host platforms. Finally, you’ll understand what to consider and what tools are available when implementing a containerized, microservices architecture.

Laptop requirements:
Students just need an ssh client and a browser that can render OCP web console. BYOD works for this lab. Needs to be a laptop of sorts, tablets and smart phones won't make good clients.

Docker Hub requirements:
https://hub.docker.com/ and create an account before attending the lab."

Deploying OpenStack on Kubernetes with Ansible
Limited Capacity filling up

"OpenStack is a complex distributed system to manage infrastructure programmatically. So far, the most common way to deploy it is by installing it on baremetal. However, if you look at it closer, the services that OpenStack is built by are very much cloud like applications that can be deployed on containers.

Ansible is a management tool that allows for various operations including configuration management, provisioning and resource management.

Join me in this presentation where I'll show how it's possible to manage Kubernetes resources using Ansible and the Kubernetes' API (no external requirements) to deploy complex applications like OpenStack."

Building images for the clouds
Limited Capacity filling up

"From gold images to cloud machine images, the creation and provisioning of systems has moved steadily away from remote installation to uploading finished artifacts. Infrastructure as code and immutable infrastructure need a different way of shipping new packages and updating available images than a remote yum update.

We'll explore some tools like lorax to define the system build, livemedia-creator create an image and convert to multiple formats. We'll also discuss where configuration fits in the process and talk about how to manage versions.

After this session, you'll know:
* what tools are available today
* how to build a common system image for multiple platforms
* what we need to consider in image lifecycles"

Compensating transactions for the Cloud
Limited Capacity seats available

"As practitioners moved their code to cloud environments and microservice architectures, we saw the eschewing of TX for these apps. The prevalence of TX models employing locking could be cited as having an unacceptable impact on the scalability of the app.

We will demonstrate with practical examples how a technique known as compensating transactions allows applications to maintain atomic outcomes without the need for coarse locking traditionally required.

SRE Patterns: Converging roles for Modern Software
Limited Capacity seats available

"Intended audience:
The session will be open for all, from people just getting started to seasoned professionals interested in software engineering and patterns/trends

Abstract:
In modern Software Engineering, the trends challenge the more traditional roles(Dev, QA, Ops) and separation of concerns in the traditional models. Site Reliability Engineering patterns model the next generation of the Software craftsman, who is a combination of Dev, QE and Ops. With self service tooling backed by monitoring and intelligent test automation, the developer can own the testing and also deployments to production. Also get a glance into how Red Hat Developer Tools Team is disrupting the traditional software delivery model with SRE patterns, enabling faster turnaround times for high quality solutions."

Testing and verification of infrastructure code
Limited Capacity seats available

"Devops people maintaining small infrastructures with no SLAs do not see area of testing and verification of IaaC as important as people who are maintaining large infrastructures and need to deliver features or rolling updates in fast and reliable manner. As soon as IaaC repository gets a little bigger the time spend on manual testing becomes a bottle neck.

Contributing to public IaaC repositories can also be painful when both contributor and maintainer do not have a way to automatically check if their code will not break supported environments.

So how should we test our IaaC repositories?

This talk will introduce ideal way for testing of IaaC and show what features can tool Test-Kitchen provide to meet requirements and help with automated testing and verification of IaaC repositories."
