The presentation discusses the use of eBPF programs in cybersecurity and DevOps, specifically in collecting and analyzing metrics for monitoring purposes.
  • eBPF programs can be used to collect valuable data from traffic operating on a system
  • Bumblebee is an example of a service that provides metrics directly on the server once run
  • Prometheus can be used to collect and analyze metrics from various sources, including eBPF programs
  • eBPF programs can be reused and deployed on multiple clusters to collect data from traffic going from a service to another
  • The Book Info demo application is used as an example to demonstrate the deployment of Prometheus to collect metrics

Introduction to Open Policy Agent (OPA) and its flexibility in policy language and deployment options
  • OPA is a decision point for authorization decisions made by any service
  • Policy queries can be any arbitrary JSON value and the policy language is purpose-built to handle deeply nested JSON data
  • Context-aware policies can be created by injecting arbitrary data into OPA
  • Policy decisions can also be arbitrary JSON objects
  • OPA is flexible in deployment options, including running as a CLI, embedded library, or centralized authorization service
  • The policy language is expressive but not as complex as a programming language

The presentation discusses the importance of a data-driven approach in DevOps and how to effectively use metrics to measure success.
  • Aggregating data from various sources is important to make correlations and provide meaningful insights
  • Test-driven development is similar to using metrics to answer questions quickly and make quicker decisions
  • Metrics should be categorized based on outcomes and grouped accordingly
  • Operate First is an open-source community cloud environment that allows users to test and influence software in a production-grade environment
  • The presentation provides references and resources for getting started with data-driven DevOps

Cloud products have generated remarkable value over the last two decades. Ironically much of this value doesn’t benefit the software engineers while they code those products. We’re still tediously constructing our workspaces by hand, just like we did in 1994.That is finally changing – software engineering is entering the cloud era. The key is remote workspaces that use consistent images so your code truly runs on everyone’s machine. You can check out, edit, compile, test, run, debug, and do almost everything else you can do on a local machine except trip over the power cord. Remote workspaces can provide superb performance no matter what device is in your hand, on your lap, or under your desk.These platforms are now possible because of an ecosystem rich with open source components like Docker, VS Code Remote, and Infrastructure-as-Code. There’s now a remote workspace option for almost everyone, whether working for someone else, on an open source project, or for yourself. These products are already capable enough for many, but some obstacles remain before adoption by most software engineers.The good news is that all those obstacles will be overcome – the problems are well understood, so it’s just a matter of time. Join Ketan Gangatirkar, VP of Engineering and Product for Coder, tolearn the current state of the art, what obstacles stand in the way of mainstream adoption, and why your future workstation will be in the cloud. You may not be using a cloud workspace today, but in just a few more years you won’t consider using anything else.

Carbyne Stack is an open-source project that integrates Computing On Encrypted Data (COED) technology with cloud-native technology to enable scalable, resilient, and easy to operate COED deployments.
  • COEDs enable encryption in use to protect valuable data
  • Carbyne Stack integrates Secure Multiparty Computation (MPC) technology with cloud-native technology
  • Carbyne Stack uses Kubernetes, Istio, and Knative to solve the specific challenges of deploying MPC in the cloud
  • Carbyne Stack has four services for offline and online phases, including customer, Klitschko, Nitro, and Ephemeral
  • Kubernetes provides scalability and resiliency, K-native allows users to concentrate on their code, and Istio helps with networking and security

The presentation discusses the challenges faced in managing a Python Package Index (PyPI) server in a cloud-native environment and explores different options for hosting a PyPI server.
  • The speaker discusses the challenges of managing a PyPI server in a cloud-native environment
  • The speaker explores different options for hosting a PyPI server, including public PyPI, self-hosted PyPI, and cloud-based PyPI solutions
  • The speaker emphasizes the importance of portability, security, resiliency, and speed in a PyPI hosting solution
  • The speaker shares an anecdote about the challenges of managing a tangled codebase with embedded machine learning models in multiple services
  • The speaker suggests separating the machine learning model portion of the codebase into different repositories and managing them separately as packages in a PyPI server

Capital One is first U.S Bank to exit out of on-prem legacy data centers. On this journey of adopting public cloud for our workloads,we have gone thro' a massive tech transformation across enterprise. Since 2020 all our workloads are running in public cloud. This talk will focus on one of such real customer use-case where we have adopted completely serverless pattern for one of partner's quartely redemption process. We will touch upon on our use-case and how it really benefits from serverless pattern. This can be helpful for organization or teams who are in similar journey

Building your own infrastructure can be cost-effective and less complex than using cloud services, with open source technologies like Ceph, Lex, and Oven.
  • Cloud services can be expensive and complex, with potential vendor lock-in.
  • Building your own infrastructure can be cost-effective and less complex, with open source technologies like Ceph, Lex, and Oven.
  • These technologies provide redundant distributed storage, network compute, and frequent releases.
  • They can run on cheap hardware, such as Raspberry Pi.
  • The speaker has tested these technologies in a data center and found them to be stable and reproducible.
