Four Secrets to Managing Your Testing Workflow By @JustinRohrman | @CloudExpo #API #Cloud

Take your typical project.
New code appears in pieces – the front end is ready, but the API that front end makes request on isn’t even on a test server yet. There is a performance optimization project going on the side.
One tester is dealing with a critical support issue, another is supposed to get a new feature any minute now, and the last is completely blocked.
This is normal life in software testing. Work comes in fits and starts, and is often hard to predict.
How do we manage the flow of work and keep testers productive? Here are a few things that have worked for me.

Would You Put Corporate Applications in the Cloud? By @PSilvas | @CloudExpo #Cloud

There once was a time when organizations wouldn’t consider deploying critical applications in the cloud. It was too much of a business risk from both an access and an attack perspective—and for good reason, since 28 percent of enterprises have experienced more security breaches in the public cloud than with on-premises applications. This is changing, however. Over the last few years, cloud computing has emerged as a serious option for delivering enterprise applications quickly, efficiently, and securely. Today almost 70 percent of organizations are using some cloud technology. And that approach continues to grow. According to the latest Cisco Global Cloud Index report, global data center IP traffic will nearly triple over the next five years. Overall, data center IP traffic will grow at a compound annual growth rate of 25 percent from 2012 to 2017.

Cancer, Cloud and Privacy Shield By @Kevin_Jackson | @CloudExpo #Cloud

For more than 10 years, the rapid rise of cloud computing has enabled an even more rapid application of cloud to genomic medicine. In fact, since the U.S. National Institutes of Health (NIH) lifted a 2007 ban on uploading their genomic data into cloud storage, the explosion in cloud use has accelerated. Some of the most impressive accomplishments in this field have included the:
Pan-Cancer Analysis of Whole Genomes (PCAWG) project, that brings together whole-genome sequencing data from the International Cancer Genome Consortium (ICGC) and The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) projects. This resource describes over 2000 tumor and matched control samples that cover more than 30 cancer entities. Academics will be using the EMBL-EBI Embassy Cloud and high-performance computing centers at the University of Chicago, the Electronics and Telecommunications Research Institute in Seoul, the University of California in Santa Cruz, the University of Tokyo and the Heidelberg Center for Personalized Oncology at the German Cancer Research Centre (DKFZ).

Application Delivery Playbook | @DevOpsSummit #DevOps #Microservices

When major companies start getting into the nitty gritty of updating their software delivery processes, governance always pokes its head into the mix. The ability to control and secure a software release has traditionally been a hands-on experience due to its many complexities. But at what costs?
As more software delivery processes become automated, the traditional manual processes used for corporate governance are creating bottlenecks that slow down software releases and promote inefficiency. Forrester recently released a new report on this subject: “Use DevOps And Supply Chain Principles To Automate Application Delivery Governance Processes: The Modern Application Delivery Playbook.” The report aims to give companies insight into state of governance processes in the software release process today, and understand how they need to evolve in order to meet the needs of tomorrow.

Defining ‘Freedom’ in the Open Source Software Space | @CloudExpo #Cloud

Recently, Forbes contributing writer and enterprise software, application development, and data management expert Adrian Bridgwater discussed how important it is to understand what freedom really means in the open source world. In open source, the word “free” refers to the liberty that users have in running, distributing, changing and improving the software, rather than its price.
In fact, while “free” is an appealing word to many C-suite executives, it’s of prime importance that those who are just now considering implementing open source software in their organization understand that it’s the liberty that open source allows that benefits the enterprise, not necessarily the price tag. Open source allows for great freedom for how software is modified, used and shared within an organization, which can lead to greater creativity, innovation, and productivity free from licensing or functionality concerns.

DevOps Five Years Later at @DevOpsSummit | #DevOps #APM #Microservices

After more than five years of DevOps, definitions are evolving, boundaries are expanding, ‘unicorns’ are no longer rare, enterprises are on board, and pundits are moving on. Can we now look at an evolution of DevOps? Should we? Is the foundation of DevOps ‘done’, or is there still too much left to do? What is mature, and what is still missing? What does the next 5 years of DevOps look like?
In this Power Panel at DevOps Summit, moderated by DevOps Summit Conference Chair Andi Mann, panelists looked back at what DevOps has become, and forward at what it might create next.

Orchestration Is the Ultimate Order | @DevOpsSummit #DevOps #Microservices

Remember when you were in school, learning math, and you learned about the importance of the order of operations? You do? Okay, good. Pop quiz:

1 + 1 * 8 = ?

The answer is 9, not 16. Why? Because multiplication has precedence. If you want to get to 16 with those numbers, we’ll need to add some parentheses:

(1+1) * 8 = 16

Because parentheses have precedence over everything else.
