Not many people have sat down and implemented and worked out the problems of starting an X service\, a few UI components\, the session bus and DBus services for normal users with the mechanisms that systemd provides. \;\n \;\nThe benefits are obvious: Systemd provides excellent service monitoring and restarting capabilities\, prov ides socket and DBus activation for relevant services\, and overall impr oves desktop startup by allowing user services to start well before core services like Xorg or wayland start. In effect\, we're saying goodbye t o XDG autostart entirely\, and getting back reliability and scalability. \;\n \;\nWe converted several desktop environments including Tize n's Mobile UI\, Xfce4\, Enlightenment and more to systemd user sessions. We "\;pop the hood"\; and take a look at the implications for s tartup\, what's possible to further improve on the session startup and w here we can do better. \;\n \;\n \;\nAuke Kok is a software eng ineer at Intel's Open Source Technology Center\, and has been attempting to make Linux boot faster since 2007.

For those new to OpenStack we'll have an intro-le vel presentation from HP's Spencer Krum\, after which we'll get into the (API) weeds with Bernard Sanders from CloudBolt Software \;\n \;\ n \;\nUsing OpenStack Nova (Spencer Krum) \;\n \;\nIn this brie f talk I will talk about how I use an OpenStack cloud (HP Cloud) to boot up virtual machines for interactive testing. This workflow has replaced vagrant in my life. I will show a script I made called 'hodor' to boot vms and log into them. This is targeted at the absolute beginner and wil l be very basic. \;\n \;\nSpencer Krum is an OpenStack hacker work ing for HP. He coordinates the PdxDevOps user group and is active in the puppet community. \;\n \;\n \;\nHybrid cloud and catalyzing Op enStack adoption (Bernard Sanders) \;\n \;\nIt's tough to convince people to put all their eggs in one basket\, and that reluctance keeps some folks from going all-in on building an OpenStack cloud. Until they 're ready\, solutions providing easy access to multiple clouds can smoot h that transition. Bernard Sanders (CTO at CloudBolt Software) joins us to talk about how their cloud management platform interfaces with OpenS tack\, and the good\, bad and ugly of integrating with one of the fastes t growing open source projects in history. \;\n \;\nPrior to Cloud Bolt\, Bernard has worked for NASA/JPL\, Loudcloud\, Opsware\, HP\, hold ing roles in development\, systems engineering\, and product management. He's a puzzle/game enthusiast\, a juggler\, a nordic skier\, and an ex -quadrapeligic.

It even has a companion CLI tool for interacting with remote providers. This talk will give a brief history on how Spark leFormation came into existence\, its evolution to becoming the library and application it is today\, and an overview of the things possible wit h SparkleFormation.

If there's still time and interest after all this\, we can touch on wh y CFN is currently the best orchestration API\, why CFN sucks\, what's g reat and horrible about other orchestration APIs\, why you should have a n "\;infrastructure repository"\;\, the absurdity of humans comp osing documents in serialization formats\, and anything else people want to talk about. \;\n \;\nSpeaker: Eric Maxwell \;\n \;\nSum mary: Eric will take us through chef's new offering: Habitat.

Despite that\, people still routinely use Google Docs\, whose corporate owner p romises to sell private data to its customers\, the advertisers. People still store sensitive data in the cloud\, where data breaches are virtua lly inevitable. Avatron launched Air Connect\, an alternative approach t o allowing access of personal data from anywhere. Like Skype\, Air Conne ct employs UDP tunneling to forge a direct connection to a remote comput er\, even if it is behind a stringent firewall or on a dynamic IP addres s. \;\nWe’ll walk through the architecture of Air Connect\, discussin g design decisions made along the way. We’ll talk through the joys and w oes of launching a geeky networking software service on Kickstarter.

She has 15 year s of experience working with code and customers to build scalable data a rchitectures\, integrating relational and big data technologies. Gwen cu rrently specializes in building real-time reliable data-processing pipel ines using Apache Kafka. Gwen is an Oracle Ace Director\, the coauthor o f Hadoop Application Architectures\, and a frequent presenter at industr y conferences. She is also a committer on Apache Kafka and Apache Sqoop. When Gwen isn’t coding or building data pipelines\, you can find her pe daling her bike\, exploring the roads and trails of California and beyon d. Title:Stream All Things - Patterns of Modern Data Integration Abstrac t:80% of the time in every project is spent on data integration: Getting the data you want the way you want it. This problem remains challenging despite 40 years of attempts to solve it. We want a reliable\, low late ncy system that can handle varied data from wide range of data managemen t systems. We want a solution that is easy to manage and easy to scale. Is it too much to ask? In this presentation\, we’ll discuss the basic ch allenges of data integration and introduce design and architecture patte rns that are used to tackle these challenges. We will explore how these patterns can be implemented using Apache Kafka and share pragmatic solut ions that many engineering organizations used to build fast\, scalable a nd manageable data pipelines. ----- Special thanks to WeWork Custom Hous e who are hosting us for this event.

Aaron Schlesinger of the Microsoft Azure Containers group exp lains. \;\n \;\nDatabases are hard to maintain if you run them in Kubernetes. Same with pub/sub systems\, or any combination of stateful a nd data really. Sometimes we just want to hook our apps up to the cloud equivalents of these things\, so we don't have to manage them. How do we do _that_ in a portable way? Enter the Open Service Broker (OSB) API an d Kubernetes Service Catalog. \;\n \;\nLearn how to connect your a pps to all your favorite cloud services without ever opening the portal or using the CLI. It's the same OSB API for all the clouds\, and the sam e Kubernetes Service Catalog resources for any cluster.

CDMC v1.1 was released September 2021 and is now avail able to all companies and establishes a data risk governance and control framework for cloud\, multi and hybrid cloud environments. \;\n \ ;\nThis discussion will dive into: \;\n \;\n - What are the value drivers for CDMC? \;\n - What results and progress are firms seeing b y using CDMC? \;\n - How does CDMC help with managing sensitive data in the cloud? \;\n - What role does CDMC play in driving digital tran sformation? \;\n - How does CDMC help CSP’s and other Technology prov iders? \;\n - How does CDMC help accelerate trusted cloud adoption?&# 13\;\n \;\n \;\n \;\n \;\nWhere \;\n \;\nRSVP for join code\, this is an VIRTUAL event via Google Meet\n\nTags: data\, datagov ernance\, communication\, cloud\, DAMA\, datapdx\, governance\, trust\n\ nImported from: http://calagator.org/events/1250480668 URL:https://datapdx.org/2023/08/22/september-2023-accelerating-trusted-cl oud-adoption-with-cdmc-with-edm-council/ SUMMARY:Data PDX: "Accelerating Trusted Cloud Adoption with CDMC" with th e EDM Council LOCATION:Google Meet: false SEQUENCE:2 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CREATED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20230929T211800Z DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20231019T130000 DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20231019T120000 DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20230929T211800Z LAST-MODIFIED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20230929T211800Z UID:http://calagator.org/events/1250480712 DESCRIPTION:Keith Belanger\, SqlDBM Product Evangelist \;\n \;\nKei th Belanger has over 27 years experience in the Data Architecture space and started his journey as a Data Modeler in the OLTP space and eventual ly migrated over to the OLAP space.

Those innovations with real staying power have proven to d rive business outcomes and prioritize intuitive user engagement. Within this list are a semantic layer (for breaking the silos between knowledge and data) and of course\, generative AI (a topic that is often top of m ind on today’s strategic roadmaps). Both have one thing in common—they a re showing promise in addressing the age-old challenge of unlocking busi ness insights from organizational knowledge and data\, without the compl exities of expensive data\, system\, and content migrations. \;\n 3\;\nIn 2019\, Gartner published research emphasizing the end to “a sing le version of the truth” for data and knowledge management and that by 2 026\, “active metadata” will power over 50% of BI and analytics tools an d solutions to provide a structured and consistent approach to connectin g instead of consolidating data. \;\n \;\nBy employing semantic components and standards (through metadata\, business glossaries\, taxon omy/ontology\, and graph solutions)\, a semantic layer arms organization s with a framework to aggregate and connect siloed data/content\, explic itly provide business context for data\, and serve as the layer for expl ainable AI. \;\n \;\nThis session will present case studies that take a deep dive in the technical architecture of a Semantic Layer\, exp loring the components that enable semantic capabilities\, such as metada ta management\, data catalogs\, ontology/knowledge graphs and AI infrast ructure. The presentation will emphasize how these components interconne ct organizational knowledge and data assets\, enhancing systems like rec ommendation engines and semantic search and explore the top three common approaches we are seeing at play in order to weave this data and knowle dge layer into the fabric of enterprise architecture\, highlighting the applications and organizational considerations for each. \;\n \;\n \;\nSPEAKERS \;\n \;\nLulit Tesfaye is a Partner and the Vice President for Knowledge &\; Data Services and Engineering at Enterpri se Knowledge\, LLC.\, the largest global consultancy dedicated to Knowle dge and data management.

Do you wish that you c ould safely make changes to your cluster without "\;experimenting in prod"\;? Have you ever tried to reason about cost savings or capaci ty planning and gotten stuck? \;\n \;\nSimKube is an open-source t ool to help you answer these questions. It is a record-and-replay simula tion environment that lets you collect data about your production enviro nment(s) and then replay them locally on your laptop to debug\, experime nt\, and make predictions about your infrastructure. In this talk you'll learn why simulation is an important tool for understanding your infras tructure\, and how you can start using SimKube in your own environments. \;\n \;\n6:45pm to 8:00pm – Networking and Board games!\n\nTags: kubernetes\, containers\, cloud\, operations\n\nImported from: http://ca lagator.org/events/1250482017 URL:https://www.meetup.com/cloud-native-pdx/events/306802106/ SUMMARY:Cloud Native PDX May Meeting LOCATION:ProFocus: 10200 Southwest Eastridge Street\, Portland OR 97225 U S SEQUENCE:1 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CREATED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20250609T215036Z DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20250617T000000 DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20250617T000000 DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20250609T215036Z LAST-MODIFIED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20250609T215036Z UID:http://calagator.org/events/1250482056 DESCRIPTION:Kickoff @ 5:30 PM: Networking &\; introductions \;\nTec h Talk @ 6:00 PM: Talk nerdy to me: how to explain technical concepts to non-tech people. \;\n \;\nEver struggled to explain your work to people who don't "\;speak tech"\;?

Most o11y stacks today are drowning in tele metry\, buried in cost overruns\, and spread so thin across tools that t hey’ve become more noise than signal. The classic SaaS-based model is cr acking. \;\n \;\nThis talk lays out 4 foundational principles for building a sustainable observability posture - that scale with infra and budget: \;\n \;\n* Bring Your Own Cloud (BYOC): SaaS o11y is fina ncially unsustainable at scale. \;\n* Consolidate or Bust: DevEx suff ers when visibility is fragmented- consolidation isn’t a luxury - it’s a requirement. \;\n* Standardize Everything: Open protocols\, pluggabl e pipelines\, and vendor-neutral APIs are the only way forward\, or your o11y is a ticking liability. \;\n* Self-Reliance: You can’t rely on app-level instrumentation forever - eBPF enables scalable o11y without c omplexity \;\n \;\nThis session pulls from real-world deployments and lessons learned helping engineering teams scale visibility without c ompromise. \;\n \;\n### \;\n \;\n“What It’s Like to Learn Cl oud-Native Today — A Beginner’s Kubernetes Story” by Kelis Hightower \;\n \;\nWhen given the chance to explore cloud-native development\, I chose not to avoid the unfamiliar. With no prior Kubernetes experience and only a few weeks to learn\, I took a hands-on approach by building a small burnout-aware study tool to ground abstract concepts in somethin g tangible. \;\n \;\nThis talk shares what it’s like to learn clou d-native technologies today from a beginner’s perspective. Through exper imentation with containers\, Kubernetes\, and cloud services\, I’ll refl ect on the mental model shifts\, early misconceptions\, and “aha” moment s that emerged from learning by building. Rather than focusing on expert ise\, this would offer an honest look at what beginners actually take aw ay from a short\, modern introduction to cloud-native systems. \;\n&# 13\;\n## Agenda \;\n \;\n5:30–6:00 — Check-in\, snacks\, networkin g \;\n6:00–6:30 — The Observability Reset (Noam Levy) \;\n6:30–7:0 0 — Beginner’s Kubernetes Story (Kelis Hightower) \;\n7:00–7:30 — Net working (and games if anyone wants to bring some!) \;\n \;\n## Who Should Attend \;\n \;\nPlatform engineers\, SREs\, DevOps\, app/p latform teams\, OSS maintainers\, beginners learning cloud-native\, and anyone curious about observability\, Kubernetes\, modern infra\, or deve loper experience. \;\n \;\n## Sponsors \;\n \;\nVenue Sponso r — Reperio Health \;\nF&\;B Sponsor — groundcover \;\n\n\nTags : kubernetes\, containers\, cloud\, observability\, programming\n\nImpor ted from: http://calagator.org/events/1250482384 URL:https://www.meetup.com/cloud-native-pdx/events/312652759 SUMMARY:January Cloud Native PDX Meetup: Observability\, Kubernetes\, and the Beginner’s Journey LOCATION:Reperio Health: 4784 SE 17th Ave Suite 120\, Portland OR 97202 U SA SEQUENCE:1 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CREATED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20260314T184656Z DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20260319T163000 DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20260319T083000 DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20260314T184656Z LAST-MODIFIED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20260314T184656Z UID:http://calagator.org/events/1250482511 DESCRIPTION:IT Infrastructure is constantly changing\, bringing more new challenges with it every day.

Enter MicroShift\, a small-footprint Kubernetes distr ibution\, paired with Fedora Bootc\, an image-based\, immutable operatin g system built for consistency and resilience. \;\n \;\nIn this se ssion\, we’ll demonstrate how running MicroShift on Fedora Bootc creates a powerful foundation for edge workloads\, combining the familiarity of Kubernetes with the reliability of image-based OS updates and atomic ro llbacks. Learn how this approach reduces operational complexity\, improv es boot-time performance\, and enhances system integrity—especially for unattended or resource-constrained edge environments. \;\n \;\nMin d the Gap: Tracking AWS Infrastructure Drift Over Time - Christopher Buc kley\, Buckshot Technologies \;\n \;\nModern DevOps pipelines focu s heavily on deploying infrastructure-as-code\, but what happens after t he deploy? In many organizations\, the infrastructure evolves outside of Git — through the console\, ad hoc scripts\, or third-party tools — lea ving behind blind spots and compliance risk. \;\n \;\nIn this talk \, we’ll explore practical ways to track infrastructure drift and deltas across AWS environments. You’ll learn how to snapshot configurations\, compare changes between points in time\, and surface deltas across accou nts in a format that’s accessible to engineers\, auditors\, and security teams alike. \;\n \;\nWe'll demo an open-source tool built to sho w Git-style diffs for AWS infrastructure — not as a pitch\, but as a cas e study in how visibility empowers better decisions\, faster troubleshoo ting\, and cleaner audit trails. Whether you're running one VPC or a hun dred\, knowing what changed is the first step to staying in control.\n\n Tags: kubernetes\, containers\, cloud\, intrastructure\, aws\, devops\n\ nImported from: http://calagator.org/events/1250482477 URL:https://www.meetup.com/cloud-native-pdx/events/313348836 SUMMARY:Cloud Native March Meetup: Microshift\, Bootc\, and AWS Infrastru cture LOCATION:Reperio Health: 4784 SE 17th Ave Suite 120\, Portland OR 97202 U SA SEQUENCE:1 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
