Topic: Continuous Integration with Openshift and Diamanti Converged Infrastructure

Speakers: Chakri Nelluri, Mark Balch from Diamanti

Diamanti solves the most challenging networking and storage requirements that organizations face when moving containerized workloads from development into production, especially when operational speed matters. While there are many ways to build and deploy applications, Continuous Integration / Continuous Delivery (CI/CD) is the clear path forward.

Diamanti’s converged infrastructure is purpose-built to serve developers and provides deep integration with Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform. The Red Hat-Diamanti combined solution supports containerized applications with rapid development-to-production rollouts and guaranteed high performance networking and storage resources.

Martin Etmajer, Technology Lead at the Dynatrace Innovation Lab, talks about how to monitor microservices on OpenShift.

Today’s growing demand for modern, cloud-native application architectures like microservices is changing the rules of the game. These applications run on dozens to thousands of small, interconnected services, each serving a single purpose, which are meant to be deployed and scaled often and independently. Such highly dynamic, distributed systems have always come with a premium; with greater complexity comes an increased likelihood of failures.

In this briefing, we will explain how to efficiently tackle the complexities of microservice architectures in Continuous Delivery and perform root-cause analysis once in production in seconds, instead of weeks, with Dynatrace on OpenShift.

This week’s OpenShift on OpenStack’s guest speaker is Jeremy Eder from Red Hat’s Performance and Tuning team who will be discussing the findings from his work deploying both OpenStack and OpenShift on CNCF.io’s Cluster. He’ll also be discussing the test harness that used to do the scaling tests and the lessons learned.

Here’s a link to the blog he wrote, https://cncf.io/news/blogs/2016/08/deploying-1000-nodes-openshift-cncf-cluster-part-1

From the blog:
'Imagine being able to stand up thousands of tenants with thousands of apps, running thousands of Docker-formatted container images and routes, on a self-healing cluster. Take that one step further with all those images being updatable through a single upload to the registry, all without downtime. We did just that on Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform running on Red Hat OpenStack on a 1000 node cluster.'

With the emergence of Docker, three-tier application architecture is becoming legacy and container creation is becoming the new norm. There are still some challenges as this service is still growing. Developers must stand up a Docker host where they can deploy their images, and this means they need to account for infrastructure, networking, and security.

From a security perspective, containers change the attack vector and customers need to protect themselves. However, there is good news. The declarative nature of containers makes it easier with the right tooling to provide enhanced security that customers could not achieve in a three-tier architecture. Twistlock is one of those tools. In this session, Michael Withrow will give us an overview of container security issues and a walk-thru using Twistlock’s offering with applications deployed in containers on OpenShift.

Michael Withrow, Chief Architect & Director of Solution Architecture, at Twistlock. Michael recently joined Twistlock after spending eight years, and working on more than 150 deployments of Azure, at Microsoft.

In this session, DJ will demonstrate how to deploy GitLab in OpenShift using GitLab’s official Docker image and help you get familiar with the Gitlab web interface and CLI tools that will help you achieve your application development goals.

In this special OpenShift Commons Briefing, we had Clayton Coleman, one of the lead architects of OpenShift and also works as one of the core contributors of Kubernetes.

Clayton was kind enough to give us an overview of OpenShift Origin, giving us some invaluable insight on the current release, Origin 1.3.

It may also be of interest the conversation around the roadmap and plans for future releases.

Cyber threats consistently rank as a high priority for data center operators and their reliability teams. As increasingly sophisticated attacks mount, the risk associated with a zero-day attack is significant. Traditional responses include perimeter monitoring and associated network defenses. Since those defenses are reactive to application issues attackers choose to exploit, it’s critical to have visibility into both what is in your container library, but also what the current state of vulnerability activity might be. Current vulnerability information for container images can readily be obtained by using the scan action on Atomic hosts in your OpenShift Container Platform.

In this session we’ll cover how an issue becomes a disclosed vulnerability, how to determine the risk associated with your container usage, and potential mitigation patterns you might choose to utilize to limit any potential scope of compromise.

Testing applications is important, as shown by the rise of continuous integration and automated testing. In this talk, Alban and Tom will focus on one area of testing that is difficult to automate: poor network connectivity. Developers usually work within reliable networking conditions so they might not notice issues that arise in other networking conditions. We will give examples of software that would benefit from test scenarios with varying connectivity. I will explain how traffic control on Linux can help to simulate various network connectivity. Finally, I will run a demo showing how an application running on OpenShift3 with Kubernetes behaves when changing network parameters using Weave.work’s Weave Scope.

Making it easier to link services in OpenShift, within a project/namespace or across projects, as well as linking OpenShift services to other services in your data center or the public cloud is an important ongoing objective. The Kubernetes services model is at the core of this effort. The upstream work in the Kubernetes and Origin community will then feed into OpenShift.
The goal is to make it easier to find and consume services in a consistent manner, as well as to make it easier to link services to deployments. This then serves as the basis for publishing catalogs of predefined services and enabling service consumption metering and billing. This session will give a progress report on our efforts and outline the tasks ahead.

Anyone interested in helping us build out this functionality in OpenShift 3 and looking for a place to contribute is encouraged to attend. Related Trello Card: https://trello.com/c/oLWi6AHf/167-service-catalog-catalog
