The Swiss Configuration Management System with Provisioning Support: cdist Nico Schottelius, President, Ungleich GmbH While configuration management is a hot topic among people in the DevOps movement, most configuration management systems only configure already running systems. As provisioning systems also contain configurations, using two or more separate systems has resulted in decentralised configurations that are hard maintain together. The Swiss made configuration management system cdist now contains experimental support for system installation. In this talk Nico Schottelius from ungleich GmbH will give a Bird s-eye view on how to use cdist for provisioning. He will further explain how IT departments benefit from the integration of provisioning functionality into configuration management systems. Nico Schottelius is the president of ungleich GmbH with headquarter in the Swiss Silicon Valley in Glarus. He has been invited to give talks world wide about configuration management since 2011. He is the author of the c*-software series to which cdist, ctt and ccollect belong to. When he is not involved into improving and creating Open Source software or designing Linux infrastructures for customers, he teaches Concurrent C Programming at ZHAW Zurich. OpenSource IaaS Einführung ins Unternehmen Thore Bahr, Systems Engineer, SUSE Sandro Köchli, Sales Management, Adfinis-SyGroup Die Nutzung von Cloud Diensten verspricht den kostengünstigen, einfachen und agilen Betrieb von Software. Die Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) wird dabei als Weiterentwicklung der Virtualisierung betrachtet. Demnach reicht es, die IaaS zu installieren und sofort können als Vorteile der Cloud genutzt werden? Leider nein, die Ansätze hinter IaaS unterscheiden sich in einigen wichtigen Eigenschaften von der klassischen Virtualisierung. Diese müssen bei einer erfolgreichen Einführung einer IaaS Lösung als Private Cloud beachtet werden. In diesem Vortrag werden anhand von Beispielszenarien aus der Praxis die Unterschiede dargestellt und Faktoren für eine erfolgreiche Einführung genannt. SUSE bietet mit ihrer OpenStack Distribution eine Grundlage für den Betrieb in Unternehmensumfeld an, die mit der Erfahrung des OpenSource Partners Adfinis-SyGroup zu einer erfolgreichen Cloud Implementierung genutzt werden kann.

The future of IaaS software in a Docker world Dr. Sebastien Goasguen, Open Source Architect, Citrix Over the last year, it seems that Docker has taken over the IT world. With a great user experience and terrific simplicity in managing linux containers, Docker promises to become the go-to platform to build distributed applications. This new trend is putting pressure on the the open source IaaS software that have been taking most of the attention in the Cloud era. How will Docker affect Openstack, Cloud- Stack, Opennebula and a few others? How should these systems integrate Docker? Does Docker mean the end of hardware virtualization? In this talk we will cover these key technologies, attempt to put things in perspective and present a few integration scenarios where we could get the best of both worlds. Docker and IaaS a marriage made in Heaven! Sebastien Goasguen built his first compute cluster in the late 90 s when they were still called Beowulf clusters while working on his PhD; he has been working on making computing a utility since then. He has done research in grid computing and high performance computing and with the advent of virtualization moved to cloud computing in the mid 2000s.He is currently a Senior Open Source Solutions Architect at Citrix, where he works primarily on the Apache CloudStack project, helping develop the CloudStack ecosystem.

The Open Cloud Alliance - Trust and Choice for the Cloud Peter Ganten, CEO, Univention Because software used to provide major cloud services is generally unavailable, customers are stuck with huge vendor lock-in. The Open Cloud Alliance (OCA) provides an alternative to vendor lock-in by creating and using a standardized open cloud platform that integrates a rapidly growing number enterprise applications (60 as of January 2015 and growing) into an easy-to-use identity and application management system. A standardized runtime environment is used atop Open- Stack and Docker, and enables cloud service providers to use the stack to provide a rich integrated set of SaaS offerings. In addition, by integrating with just one platform, software vendors have instant access to an expanding channel of cloud service providers. This way, customers always have the choice among providers without the need to change the application. Peter Ganten, CEO of Univention, founded the company in 2002. Under Peter s leadership Univention has become a leading European provider of Open Source software for corporate IT environments and for managing the identities using it. In 2011 Peter co-founded and is Chairman of the Open Source Business Alliance, the largest Open Source business network in the German-speaking countries. in 2014 helped to initiate the Open Cloud Alliance. Peter lives in Bremen, Germany and has four children. The Makings of a Modern Application Architecture Nicolas Regez, Cloud Foundry Foundation It wasn t too long ago that artisans, bathed in the glow of molten metal, forged parts that would go on to make up bigger, more powerful machines. Today, we call those artisans developers. Instead of metal, they use bits and bytes in the cloud to forge a modern application architecture. It s an architecture that supports public, private and hybrid application deployment. One that enables users and developers to move their applications wherever they need to go. And it s built on a growing, vibrant ecosystem. In this talk, I ll give you a look at the technologies driving this new level of efficiency for application developers. And I ll explain why many prominent members of the Fortune 500 are building their futures on this modern application architecture. Nicolas Regez works for Swisscom, one of the founding members of the Cloud Foundry Foundation, as Java Architect and Systems Engineer. He has a total of 15+ years of developer/engineering experience and owns a master s degree in theoretical physics.

Best of breed in the Cloud Sandro Köchli, Head of Sales, Adfinis sygroup As Intel x86 became a standard in the past years, most of its alternative architectures slowly disappeared. Some of the remaining competitors such as IBM s Power or Oracle s SPARC were often seen as too complex or cost-intensive and were therefore only used for top-notch servers and mainframes. Recently, IBM has opened the Power architecture and established the open power foundation to have a foot in the Open Source door. Now, Power8 is expected to become such a commodity as x86 and is therefore worth a consideration, especially for different workloads in your cloud platform. If finding the right hardware manufacturer is a critical process, the architecture must definitely not be neglected. Keep in mind that most cases will even allow multiple architectures in your cloud environment. Best of breed is magic term and people need to rethink their choices while building a cloud environment.

Microservices in Cloud Foundry with Spring Cloud Alain Sahli, Lead Software Developer, Mimacom AG Cloud Foundry allows developers to deploy easily and often their applications. This is a great thing but it is only a part of the whole picture. In order to smoothly scale an application some patterns and basic architecture concepts must be taken into consideration. With Spring Boot, applications can be split into smaller parts called Microservices, which can be scaled in a more fine-grained manner. In addition Spring Cloud provides tools to quickly build some of the common patterns in distributed systems (e.g. configuration management, service discovery, circuit breakers). Based on a presentation and demo, in this talk you will learn how to build resilient applications with Spring Boot and Spring Cloud. Alain Sahli ist Lead Software Developer bei der mimacom ag. Seine Kernkompetenz liegt in der Entwicklung von Enterprise Web Applikationen. Er hat mehrjährige Erfahrung mit der Spring IO Plattform und ist Committer im Spring Cloud AWS Projekt.

6 th Cloud Foundry Meetup DACH at 18:00 @ Open Cloud Day www.meetup.com/cloudfoundry-user-group-dach/ In the cloud era, the application platform will be delivered as a service, often described as Platform as a Service (PaaS). PaaS makes it much easier to deploy, run and scale applications. Some PaaS offerings have limited language and framework support, do not deliver key application services, or restrict deployment to a single cloud. Cloud Foundry is the industry s Open PaaS and provides a choice of clouds, frameworks and application services. As an open source project, governed by the Cloud Foundry Foundation, there is a broad community both contributing and supporting Cloud Foundry. The Cloud Foundry User Group DACH is dedicated to bring together developers, providers and users of Cloud Foundry in the DACH region. Come and join us if you want to learn more about CloudFoundry or share ideas about PaaS, cloud-native applications, continuous delivery, microservices, open source and many more related topics. Please find more information about the talks and room location on the meetup page.
