create Calagator::Event 1250474230 "Tungsten Fabric: Open Source Multi-Cloud Networking at Scale" @ PAzUG Roll back

description nil Tungsten Fabric (http://www.tungsten.io; formerly OpenContrail) is an open source, scalable and multi-cloud networking platform. Large enterprises and service providers are using it at massive production scale, and this meetup offers some tips, insights, and "don't go theres" from users with success stories (and some battle scars). Come to this meetup to learn how users are deploying Tungsten Fabric for load balancing, HA, service chaining, analytics/orchestration and extending network to multi private / public clouds viz., AWS, Azure and Google. Sanju Abraham will be our speaker. Sanju Abraham will deliver a project overview, showcase users and use cases. Then, we’ll dive into a demo of Kubernetes with Tungsten Fabric across onprem and AWS. We’ll demonstrate the ability to access Kubernetes and launch new containers, access the Tungsten Fabric UI, and observe the network state. Tungsten Fabric is integrated with Kubernetes, VMware and OpenStack. It also supports public cloud deployments including AWS, Google and Azure. As both Enterprise and Telco IT architectures evolve, supporting multi-cloud environments is table stakes. This meetup will lay out how users can quickly get going with Tungsten Fabric, using software-driven networking and policy management to operate in a multi-cloud environment. If you’re interested in networking for private clouds running OpenStack, Kubernetes, and VMware that also rely on services from AWS, Google and Azure, this meetup is for you! Agenda: 5:00pm – Welcome time 5:30pm – Catering served 5:45pm – Group announcements and presentation 7:30pm – Wrap up. PLEASE RSVP ON THE MEETUP PAGE

create Calagator::Event 1250474227 September PMI Agile Round Table - NEW DAY, NEW TIME, GOING VIRTUAL Roll back

description nil The PMI Agile Roundtable provides a forum for exchanging ideas, techniques and real world experiences (good and bad) in managing agile projects. This round table alternates between speakers and specific topics (watch Twitter and LinkedIn for details), traditional brainstorming and voting on 2 to 3 focus topics from the group, and a new online Lean Coffee format we are eager to try out. Although sponsored by PMI, all roles and backgrounds are welcome and encouraged to participate / debate. We value the variety of perspectives and levels of experience with agile practices. This month the round table is in transition to a virtual forum that will provide more flexibility for attendees. As a group, we'll be discussing what we want from from a forum such as this; we'll look at the Lean Coffee Table tool for managing lean coffee sessions and (if time is available) selecting agile-related topics / issues. Come join us and help us create and develop an agile community focused on providing value. Note: PMI Certification holders can claim 1 PMI PDU for attending this event (email address and name needed for PMI verification)

She has authored and presented on the topic of Design Value for over 10 years, including co-authoring the seminal article “The DMI Design Value Scorecard: A New Design Measurement and Management Model.” In 2015, she was recognized by the Design Management Institute for her contributions to the design industry about Design Value. In 2017, Deb co-founded Curiate.co to help people cultivate the quality, profile and value of design in their organizations through workshops, embedded consulting and tailored coaching.

create Calagator::Event 1250474211 Public Tech Talk: Formally Verifying Implementations of Distributed Systems Roll back

description nil Title: Formally Verifying Implementations of Distributed Systems Abstract: Distributed systems are difficult to implement correctly because they must handle both concurrency and failures: machines may crash at arbitrary points and networks may reorder, drop, or duplicate packets. Further, their behavior is often too complex to permit exhaustive testing. In this talk, we'll survey the Verdi project which provides a framework for implementing and formally verifying implementations of distributed systems in Coq. Verdi eases the verification burden by enabling developers to first verify their system under an idealized fault model, then transfer the resulting correctness guarantees to a more realistic fault model without any additional proof burden. Using this approach, the Verdi team produced the first correctness proof for an implementation of the Raft distributed consensus protocol. Bio: Zach Tatlock is an Assistant Professor in Computer Science and Engineering at the University of Washington where he leads the Programming Languages and Software Engineering (PLSE) group. He received his PhD from UC San Diego and BS from Purdue (where he took nearly every course with Bill Harris!). His research draws upon proof assistants, SMT solvers, and type systems to improve software reliability and security in domains ranging from distributed systems and compilers to web browsers. He can juggle and solve Rubik’s cubes, but not at the same time.

description <i>The Portland Ruby Brigade is a user group for Ruby programmers in the Portland, Oregon, area. Join other developers for presentations and discussions about Ruby and its uses. VENUE: This meeting’s space is kindly provided by Robert Half Technology at their 2nd Floor Conference Room. Enter the KOIN Tower from SW Columbia between 2nd and 3rd Avenue, take the back elevators to the 2nd floor, and then follow the pdxruby signs.</i> PRESENTATIONS 1. "Ruby Persistence with CouchDB", Jesse Hallett There are several libraries out there that provide high level interfaces between Ruby and CouchDB. I will give an overview of some of them, discuss the pros and cons of each, and show how these libraries make working with CouchDB easier. Along the way I will talk about the particular types of problems that CouchDB is good at solving. Jesse Hallett has been designing web applications with Ruby for nearly three years now. He has worked on administrative / record-keeping applications, CMS and Ecommerce platforms, and various other pieces of software. He spends as much time as possible with his fellow geeks in organizations like the Portland Ruby Brigade and the Portland JavaScript Admirers. Jesse has developed a strong interest in the evolving state-of-the-art of client-side JavaScript technology and next generation databases. Jesse is currently developing JavaScript technology at Jive Software. 2. "Testing iPhone apps with Ruby and Cucumber", Ian Dees This talk begins with a survey of the landscape of iPhone UI testing. In particular, we’ll discuss the groundbreaking work done by Matt Gallagher in stimulating and spidering the iPhone UI with an XPath test script. That will be a natural jumping-off point to explain why a full-fledged “GUI driver” for iPhone apps has been long in coming. We’ll look at different ways to prod at application code, and discuss the tradeoffs. Finally, I’ll introduce a simple library of Ruby glue code to connect Cucumber test scripts to the iPhone. The technique will be very basic, but just powerful enough to test a simple iPhone app. <p>Pizza, learning and a great time to network with the fabulous PHP Community!</p> <p>***</p> <p>Does your site have a good search mechanism? Does it offer adequate quality for results? Is it a sustainable solution for the foreseeable scale required by your site? This week Chris Irvine will share experiences from a recent project, where he converted a site's traditional search method over to a search service, specifically AWS CloudSearch. Key topics will be:</p> <p>* What can go wrong with typical RDBMS based search solutions?<br>* What is a search service? What does AWS CloudSearch offer specifically?<br>* Live demo: Setup a sample search domain and explore available features<br>* A look at the AWS PHP SDK<br>* Case study: Walk through implementation details for a given site </p><h2><a title="حالات حب" href="https://rebrand.ly/Love-whatsapp">حالات حب</a></h2> <br>* How much improvement did we measure?

He's local to the Portland area and a PSU alum. His professional experience includes management roles in multiple industries, and numerous development and database environments. Much of his recent projects have been in PHP/MySQL, Python, and also the FileMaker workgroup and mobile platforms.</p> Ian Dees saw his first Timex Sinclair 1000 over 20 years ago, and was instantly hooked.
