This means more communication with fewer interruptions. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Launch EC2 Spot Instances in a Virtual Private Cloud http://ow.ly/6UFbW We've combined two popular AWS features, Amazon EC2 Spot Instances and the Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (Amazon VPC). You can now create a private, isolated section of the AWS cloud and make requests for Spot Instances to be launched within it. Launching Spot Instances into Amazon VPC requires special capacity behind the scenes, which means that the Spot Price for Spot Instances in an Amazon VPC will float independently from those launched outside of Amazon VPC. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- IBM to Acquire System Software Company Platform Computing to Extend Reach of Technical Computing http://ow.ly/6TRS6 Clusters, Grids and Clouds...

We are talking, of course, about smartphones and their heavier brethren `pads'. What about configuration management of these devices? -encryption of memory, -pin code or password protection, -software updates, -application version control, are pressing.

Once OpenStack is running, Clint has a series of Hadoop jobs that he spins up and runs against dozens of instances on the local Nova compute node. And for the real whiz-bang, Clint uses gource for dynamic visualization of the Hadoop cluster, the various nodes, and their relationships. It is absolutely stunning to behold!

Devops Drop 024 | New - Amazon S3 Server Side Encryption for Data at Rest http://aws.typepad.com/aws/2011/10/new-amazon-s3-server-side-encryption.html Amazon S3 Server Side Encryption handles all encryption, decryption, and key management in a totally transparent fashion. When you PUT an object and request encryption (in an HTTP header supplied as part of the PUT), we generate a unique key, encrypt your data with the key, and then encrypt the key with a master key. For added protection, keys are stored in hosts that are separate and distinct from those used to store your data. --------------------------------------------------------------- chef.vim is plugin which make it easy for https://github.com/t9md/vim-chef/ -jump between attributes and recipes -jump between LWRP's providers and resources -open recipes by extract filename from include_recipe -open templates and files -jump to attributes -jump to definition -jump to LWRP -------------------------------------------------------------- ruby-fog https://groups.google.com/group/ruby-fog/browse_thread/thread/ad46c2738b434967?pli=1 Stats! { 'collaborators' => 16, 'downloads' => 245,745, 'forks' => 260, 'open_issues' => 13, 'watchers' => 1521 } -MVP!

He is our #devops mirror for networking and security (imho). He tried to keep us honest... “Given the recent influx of virtual networking solutions, many of which are OpenFlow-based, what possible in-roads and value can they hope to offer in heavily virtualized enterprise environments wherein the virtual networking is owned and controlled by VMware?” Specifically, if the only third-party VMware virtual switch to date is Cisco’s and access to this platform is limited (if at all available) to startup players, how on Earth do BigSwitch, Nicira, vCider, etc. plan to insert themselves into an already contentious environment effectively doing mindshare and relevance battle with the likes of mainline infrastructure networking giants and VMware? If you’re answer is “OpenFlow and OpenStack will enable this access,... Not meaning to p**s anyone off, but many of these startups’ business plans are shrouded in the mystical vail of “wait and see.” -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Pro Puppet [Kindle Edition] http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005PZ28R8/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&tag=hardeninglinu-20&linkCode=as2&camp=217145&creative=399373&creativeASIN=B005PZ28R8 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ask about BigDrops?

Devops Drop 022 | Gartner Cites Application Release Automation Tools as Key to DevOps http://blog.noliosoft.com/gartner-cites-application-release-automation-tools-as-key-to-devops/ So many things wrong with this... (ARA) Nolio As an emerging movement, DevOps may have improved communication and collaboration between development and IT operations teams but it still hasn’t absolutely mastered its ultimate goal of unifying their work. In his report, Ronni J. Colville argues that DevOps can be greatly enhanced by the use of application release automation (ARA) tools and specifically cites Nolio as one such solution. Can tools help “Cuture” this question was asked at Puppetconf w/Luke... Visibility also requires the establishment of a model of the application and its configuration for each environment. ARA tools can provide a mechanism to create application models for each environment, with externalized configuration settings that typically vary by environment. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Selenium and Nagios http://devops-abyss.blogspot.com/2010/06/selenium-and-nagios.html I've implemented a Nagios check for Selenium test cases. With this check it is possible to put your recorded test cases from your Selenium IDE into Nagios to use them for monitoring. Test-->Selenium IDE-->Export-->check_selenium (nagios plugin)-->Selenium Remote Control --------------------------------------------------------------------- DevOps in Milliseconds http://techblog.appnexus.com/2011/devops-in-milliseconds/ AppNexus engineers have it good. They don’t lie awake at night wondering if we can handle the next increase of impressions. They don’t worry that our systems are down and we don’t know it. They don’t develop in a bubble, toss their code over the wall to a mysterious group of people, and wash their hands clean. Monitoring: Nagios - 1200 services Metrics: Graphite - 1 million datapoints every minute. Nagios plugin that queries Graphite and alerts if values of certain metrics go above or below specified thresholds. Deployment: Puppet and Maestro Puppet backed by a MySQL database and fronted by an in-house application we call Maestro. At AppNexus there is no wall between engineers and operations, and automation is crucial to scaling our infrasctructure. Engineers control their own destiny, and we give them the tools to dive deep into production problems and give them tools to dive deep into production problems, make fixes, and improve their products as quickly as they can code. --------------------------------------------------------------------- CI vs Zombies http://www.build-doctor.com/2011/09/26/ci-vs-zombies/ Runaway builds. --A runaway build occurs when not all processes created by the build exit cleanly. --Zombies – may hang the build, or simply stay around in the background waiting to wreak havoc. --They interfere with test isolation. If processes can hang around from an earlier build (or earlier test within the same build) they may affect unrelated tests. --difficult-to-diagnose failures. -- eventually leading to exhaustion. --Manual intervention is required to kill them and clean up. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Openstack Compute API v1.1 support https://github.com/geemus/fog/pull/525 Implement fog support for the Openstack Compute API v1.1.

There are basic workload sets that combine the basic operations, but new additional workloads can also be created. This article contains tests conducted on the following products and versions. Cassandra-0.7.4 Although Cassandra’s latest version is 0.8.0, we have decided to use the previous version known to be stable. Because when testing with the 0.8 version, the gossip protocol between nodes malfunctioned and the node up/down information was incorrect. HBase-0.90.2 (Hadoop-0.20-append) The HBase-0.90.2 (Hadoop-0.20-append) was selected because, if not the Hadoop-append version, there may be problems on decreased durability in HDFS.

But even their tooling reflects decoupling. Every tool follows the self-service model ("YOU do what you WANT to do with YOUR stuff"). Their deployment system (named Apollo, mentioned in the slides) and their build system, and their many other tooling, all reflect this model. Cons. What happens is that you might be reinventing the wheel at Amazon. Often. Code reuse is very low across teams. So there's no shared cost of ownership at Amazon, more often than not. It's the complete opposite at Google w.r.t. code reuse. There are many very high-quality libraries at Google that are designed to be shared. Guava (the Java library) is a great example. Another con. You may not know what you're doing. But as a team you will still build a rickety solution that gets you to a working solution. This is the result of giving a team complete ownership: they'll build what they know with what they have. Amazon is slowly correcting some of these problems by having teams own specific Hard Problems. A good example is storage systems. And a lack of consistency is a common issue across Amazon. Code quality and conventions fluctuate wildly across teams. Overall, Amazon has figured out how to decouple things very well. ----------------------- Data scientist: The hot new gig in tech http://tech.fortune.cnn.com/2011/09/06/data-scientist-the-hot-new-gig-in-tech/ The gig which requires the specialist to capture, sort, and figure out what data are relevant is one part statistician, one part forensic scientist, and one part hacker.

Perfect!
These guys skip the BS, get a relevant guest on every show, and just get right to it discussing the tools & philosophies of the DevOps movement.
Lame
