DESCRIPTION:Lance Albertson of the Oregon State University Open Source La
 b will give an introduction to the Ganeti Virtualization Management Syst
 em.&#13\;\n&#13\;\nGaneti is a robust cluster virtualization management 
 software tool. It’s built on top of existing virtualization technologies
  such as Xen and KVM and other Open Source software. Its integration wit
 h various technologies such as DRBD and LVM results in a cheaper High Av
 ailability infrastructure and linear scaling.&#13\;\n&#13\;\nThis hands-
 on tutorial will cover a basic overview of Ganeti\, the step-by-step ins
 tall &amp\; setup of a single-node and multi-node Ganeti cluster\, opera
 ting the cluster\, and some best practices of Ganeti. Finally\, deployin
 g and using a web-based management tool called Ganeti Web Manager.&#13\;
 \n&#13\;\nIf you want to participate on the hands-on portion of the talk
 \, feel free to clone his vagrant-ganeti repo on github (https://github.
 com/ramereth/vagrant-ganeti) prior to the meeting. We'll try and have th
 e box images available on USB drives at the meeting but its always great
  to have everything setup prior to the meeting and not saturate the wifi
 .&#13\;\n&#13\;\nLance is the Associate Director of Operations for the O
 regon State University Open Source Lab (OSL) and a Gentoo Linux Develope
 r. He joined the Gentoo Linux project in 2003 and have been involved in 
 managing their infrastructure and maintaining about a dozen or so packag
 es in portage. Lance directs all of the hosting and development activiti
 es that the OSL provides for the open source community including project
 s such as Kernel.org\, Drupal\, Apache Software Foundation\, and many ma
 ny more. Lance has been at the OSL since 2007.&#13\;\n\n\nTags: django\,

DESCRIPTION:This highly interactive\, instructor-led simulation is a high
 -impact\, energetic way to accelerate understanding\, involvement\, and 
 acceptance of DevOps and Agile\, Lean\, ITIL® best practice in your orga
 nization. It helps accelerate the adoption of DevOps across the enterpri
 se\, while successfully turning DevOps opponents into advocates. By help
 ing to clearly communicate the DevOps case for change\, it creates share
 d understanding and commitment towards Development and Operations workin
 g together as a high-performing team. This unique experiential learning 
 approach causes breakthrough understanding and transforms learning into 
 an engaging\, fun\, and memorable shared experience.&#13\;\n&#13\;\nHOW 
 IT WORKS&#13\;\n&#13\;\nThe DevOps simulation experience is a role-based
  workshop\, focused on the software development and deployment lifecycle

 ractices. Participants from a variety of disciplines are immersed into a
  simulated environment whereby they are challenged to release new produc
 ts while internal and external forces continually change. This realistic

DESCRIPTION:We're excited to have the chance to sit down with Kate Ertman
 n for a question and answer session. &#13\;\n&#13\;\nHer life's work has
  been focusing on building from scratch — or rebuilding and reorganizing
  — the operational infrastructure for sustainable businesses. That inclu
 des everything from the elements of a business plan\, the importance of 
 Mission and Purpose and Values\, the how-to of defining Roles and Respon
 sibilities\, and when to hire and how to best structure that management 
 org chart — as well as the finance that runs in parallel with all of tha
 t.&#13\;\n&#13\;\nHer distinct rallying cry through all of that work is 
 the necessity of embedding equity and inclusion in all processes\, proce
 dures\, and culture of an organization\, and as a guiding principle in a
 ll leaders with whom she works — especially when it is &quot\;hard&quot\
 ; or if there are uncomfortable conversations to be had.  &#13\;\n&#13\;
 \nKate constantly seeks to leverage her  privilege and position: applyin
 g constant pressure to the systemic structure of 20th century practices 
 so there can be systemic changes that will define 21st century practices

  Computing Research Labs&#13\;\n&#13\;\nDo you ever wish you could under
 stand what's going on in your Kubernetes cluster? Do you wish that you c
 ould safely make changes to your cluster without &quot\;experimenting in
  prod&quot\;? Have you ever tried to reason about cost savings or capaci
 ty planning and gotten stuck?&#13\;\n&#13\;\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.

 Data: Building a Telemetry Pipeline to Handle High-Cardinality Metrics b
 y Chelsea Wright @ Mezmo&#13\;\n&#13\;\nHandling high-cardinality teleme
 try data efficiently is crucial for modern observability systems. In thi
 s session\, we will explore strategies for designing a scalable telemetr
 y pipeline that can process large volumes of diverse metrics without per
 formance bottlenecks. We’ll cover best practices for data ingestion\, st
 orage optimization\, and query performance\, along with real-world techn
 iques to mitigate challenges like high dimensionality and resource const
 raints. Attendees will gain insights into building a robust telemetry pi
 peline that balances accuracy\, efficiency\, and cost-effectiveness.&#13
 \;\n&#13\;\n6:15pm - What Producing Sound Effects Taught Me About Distri
 buted Systems by Bret Bernhoft&#13\;\n&#13\;\nAs a sound designer and cl
 oud native developer\, I have discovered the art of crafting immersive a
 udio effects mirrors the science of engineering distributed systems. In 
 this talk\, I will share how core audio production concepts like managin
 g feedback loops\, dealing with signal degradation and understanding the
  effects of reverb offer direct parallels to tackling challenges in micr
 oservices\, observability and network latency. Just as a single\, comple
 x sound effect is built from many interdependent layers\, modern applica
 tions rely on an orchestration of services and timing\, demanding both p
 recision and systems thinking.&#13\;\n&#13\;\nWe will explore how consid
 ering signal-to-noise ratio can clarify your logging strategies and how 
 the art of mixing audio tracks provides valuable insights into resource 
 limits as well as task prioritization within your deployments. By drawin
 g on these analogies\, this session aims to equip you with a new perspec
 tive that makes the complexities of cloud native architectures a bit mor
 e understandable\, all through the lens of sound.&#13\;\n&#13\;\n6:45pm 
 to 8:00pm – Networking and Board games!&#13\;\n&#13\;\nNone of this woul

 n&#13\;\nAgenda:&#13\;\n5:00pm to 5:30pm – Munchies and Networking! Food
  sponsored by Red Hat&#13\;\n&#13\;\n5:45pm - A conversation (or maybe s
 urprise talk!) with Kelsey Hightower&#13\;\n&#13\;\nKelsey is a renowned
  software engineer\, developer advocate\, and speaker—celebrated for his
  role in shaping Kubernetes and cloud-native infrastructure\, and previo
 usly a Distinguished Engineer at Google Cloud&#13\;\n&#13\;\n6:15pm - Th
 e -ization of Containerization by Eric Ernst\, Apple&#13\;\n&#13\;\nThe 
 recent open sourcing of Apple Containerization framework and Container t
 ooling projects enable developers to create and run Linux container imag
 es directly on their Mac in a way that focuses on security and privacy. 
 In this talk we’ll talk about the container CLI tool and how it utilizes
  Containerization to provide simple yet powerful functionality to build\
 , run and deploy Linux containers on Mac. We’ll talk about the architect
 ure\, why we wrote the framework and tool in Swift\, what future develop
 ment looks like\, and how the community can get involved.&#13\;\n&#13\;\
