  1. Compute options for Microservices on AWS
    Amazon Web Services offers a wide range of compute options for developers interested in deploying microservices-based applications. Developers interested in full control and responsibility of the stack can use EC2 and deploy all components from scratch. If you are interested in leveraging containers then you can deploy your applications using Amazon EC2 Container Service or a Kubernetes cluster on AWS. Serverless applications can be deployed using AWS Lambda. The amount of effort, time and resources involved to address Ops concerns such as creating, managing, scaling and updating a cluster differ for each compute option. Similarly, Developer concerns such as application packaging, tooling, service discovery, monitoring, logging, and CI/CD also differ for each compute option. This session will walk you through what it takes to build, deploy and manage a simple microservices based application using these different compute options. You’ll learn when a particular option is well suited, or not for your application. Pros and cons of each option will be discussed as well. Attendees will take home a working code sample for each compute option.
  2. Kubernetes on AWS Workshop
    Kubernetes is a popular cloud-native open-source orchestration platform for container management, scaling and automated deployment. It includes a rich set of features such as service discovery, multi-tenancy, stateful containers, resource usage monitoring, and rolling updates. Some of the questions we will go over are: How do we deploy using infrastructure technologies like CloudFormation and Terraform? How can CLI clients such as kops, kubeadm, juju-charms and minikube be used to interact with Kubernetes? What does a clean CI/CD pipeline look like using AWS? How do we integrate with tools such as Maven? In this code-driven workshop you will learn how to package, deploy, scale, and monitor your Java application using Kubernetes and the AWS cloud.

  11. Service Discovery in Container Orchestration Frameworks
    Service registration, discovery and horizontal scalability are key operational requirements of a microservice architecture.Each service needs to replicate. A standard mechanism by which services can easily scale up and down based upon metadata is important. The exact address of a service may not be known until the service is deployed and ready to be used. The dynamic nature of a service’s endpoint address is handled by service registration, discovery and a load balancer. This is all the more important in a containerized world where each container is like a cattle.Docker, Kubernetes, DC/OS and ECS are commonly used container orchestration platforms. They all have built-in support for service discovery and scalability. This talk will explain how this requirement of microservices are met in these orchestration frameworks. Specifically, configuration files for three microservices talking to each other will be shown and explained for the different frameworks.

  17. How to use Compose, Machine and Swarm to simplify your complex deployments (DockerCon)
    Couchbase is an open source NoSQL database. It has the capability to replicate data from one cluster to another cluster primarily for disaster recovery. Setting up this feature is general very intensive and time consuming because of multiple steps involved and special deployment needs. Docker helped us simplify showcasing this powerful and complex feature.This talk will explain how we used Docker Machine to create a Swarm cluster with overlay network. Couchbase cluster was installed on this Swarm cluster using Compose scripts. The cluster was dynamically scaled based upon QoS attributes. Affinities and filters were used to ensure the deployment needs of Couchbase server are met. Multiple Couchbase clusters on Swarm clusters were then created, each with its own overlay network. Each of these Couchbase clusters were then configured for cross-data center replication. The same use case could be easily reproduced across multiple clouds because of the portability provided by Docker.

Best practices for packaging your NoSQL applications for OpenShift will be explained as well.
  20. How to Sell Open Source
    Open Source has changed the way we build, package, and sell software. It improves the speed of innovation that allows to iterate and innovate faster than proprietary counterparts. Communities that arise around open source projects are inherently helpful, easy and free to engage. Open source is often dramatically less expensive than proprietary software. Everything in Open Source is done transparently – source code, builds, discussions, issues, features, etc. But if the build is out available publicly then why do I care about paying for this software? More importantly, how do enterprises run business on this “freely” available software. Open Source breaks the traditional sales cycle that is still prominent in closed-source and proprietary software. This talk will compare and contrast how to sell open source software as opposed to proprietary. Attendees will learn why developer adoption is a key part of open source selling, and how it leads to enterprise adoption and that leads to enterprise sales. Different methodologies for developer and enterprise adoption will be explained. A significant shift in sales person approach is required, and will be explained. Attendees will learn how to explain the benefit of a commercially supported open source software.
  21. Minecraft Modding - Powerful and Simple Way to Teach Java Programming to Kids (Ted Ed)
    Kids are addicted to Minecraft. Some of them play several hours every week. This lesson will leverage their domain knowledge and teach them fundamental programming concepts and Java language. After the initial installation, they move on to creating mods like creating an alert when a creeper is spawned, spawn an Ender Dragon when dragon egg is placed, make the skeletons armored and fight with each other, and many others. All this is done using Java programming language in a very easy-to-understand way. This session has been delivered multiple times around the world at different schools, libraries, events to kids with no prior programming knowledge. 8+ year old kids instantly become Java programmers, and do so with lot of excitement and pride. We hope Ted-Ed will help with the global scalability and visibility of this workshop.

    Title: DevOps with Java EE
    Duration/Format: 1 hr, slide + code + live demos
    Abstract (1): Automated builds/testing, deployment pipelines, CI/CD, single binary are some of the principles of DevOps. Together they allow each commit to be translated into a release candidate. It allows the ability to rapidly, reliably and repeatedly push out enhancements and bug fixes to customers at low risk and with minimal manual overhead. This talk will explain the key concepts of DevOps and Deployment Pipelines. It will show how to setup a deployment pipeline for a Java EE application using PaaS. This will include setting up Jenkins, Nexus, and Sonar. Manual UAT testing and automated functional/integration testing will be part of it. Attendees will learn how to take an application from push-to-production and achieve almost 100% automation.

    Abstract (2):  Techniques such as automated builds and testing, continuous integration and continuous deployment allow software to be developed to a high standard and easily packaged and deployed to test environments, resulting in the ability to rapidly, reliably and repeatedly push out enhancements and bug fixes to customers at low risk and with minimal manual overhead. What container-agnostic tools are available for testing, continuous integration and deployment of a Java EE application ?

    This talk will start with how to package Java EE application “operating environment” such as Operating System, JVM, Database, dependencies, and other configuration in a reusable format, such as Docker. It explains how to replicate the environment for development, testing, staging, and production minimizing the impedance mismatch between them. A quick overview of Arquillian and how it helps in a automated testing across multiple Java EE containers is shown. How functional testing, code coverage, performance and other aspects for going in to production will be discussed. Using Arquillian against Docker containers will be explained as well. Finally, configuring Jenkins for Continuous Integration and setting up deployment pipelines will show how to take an application from push-to-production and achieve almost 100% automation.


    Title: Refactor your Java EE application using Microservices and Containers
    Abstract (1): Docker gives PODA or Package Once Deploy Anywhere. It simplifies software delivery by making it easy to build and share images that contain your application code and infrastructure together, managed as one component. Each Docker container is a self-contained microservice that provides isolation, resilience, decoupling, and other benefits. This talk will provide a quick introduction to Docker. It shows how to package an existingJava EE monolith in a Docker image. The application will then be refactored into multiple microservices and assembled together using orchestration. Testing of such applications will be discussed and shown. Design patterns and anti-patterns to create cluster of such applications will be demonstrated and discussed.

    Abstract(2): Docker gives PODA or Package Once Deploy Anywhere. It simplifies software delivery by making it easy to build and share images that contain your application’s operating system, i.e. application code and infrastructure together, managed as one component. These images are then used to create runtime containers, provided by Docker. These images can be distributed using Docker Registry.  Each Docker container is a self-contained microservice that provides isolation, resilience, decoupling, and many other benefits.

    This talk will provide a quick introduction to Docker images (build time), containers (run time), and registry (distribution). It shows how to take an existing Java EE application and package it as a monolithic application as a single Docker image. The application will then be refactored in to multiple microservices and assembled together using orchestration. Unit and integration testing of such applications will be discussed and shown as well. Design patterns and anti-patterns that show how to create cluster of such applications will be demonstrated and discussed.


    Title: Microservices design patterns for Java Applications
    Abstract
    : Microservices allow to decompose a monolithic application into cohesive and multiple decoupled services. Each service is running in its own process and communicate using lightweight mechanisms, such as HTTP API. These services are built around business capabilities or functional decomposition. Microservice also enables true polyglot architecture – both in terms of language and data. It truly allows you to employ the right tool for the right job. Each service is independently deployable and lends very well to fully automated deployment machinery.

    Can you take an existing Java EE application and decompose it into microservices? What tools are required to enable CI/CD? What are different design patterns for microservices? What tools do you need to manage such services? Is the complexity being pushed around from service implementation to orchestration?

    This talk will explain some of these concerns and provide guidance on how to leverage microservices in your Java applications.
