How to get started with Apache MADlib on Hortonworks HDB

You love Spring Boot because it eliminates boilerplate code and helps you build robust Java applications quickly. And you love Spring Cloud because it brings modern microservices patterns to Spring Boot applications. The trouble has been creating, configuring, and maintaining Spring Cloud infrastructure—until now.

Introducing Azure Spring Cloud, the runtime for Spring Boot-based applications and Spring Cloud-based microservices jointly developed by Microsoft and Pivotal—now in public beta. Azure Spring Cloud is a managed environment built on top of Azure Kubernetes Service with preconfigured, opinionated, ready-to-deploy infrastructure services, and runtime for Spring-based applications.

Sound too good to be true? It isn’t! Join Spring Developer Advocate Josh Long (@starbuxman) as he walks you through an overview of Azure Spring Cloud and demos how easy it is to push and run Spring Boot microservices into production with Microsoft and Pivotal managing the infrastructure for you.

You’re faced with the business imperative to deliver value to your customers faster, with less risk, and at enterprise scale. But where do you start? There are so many approaches and products for implementing continuous delivery (CD) of modern apps.

Join our webinar to learn about three trends that can make your delivery pipelines inherently resilient, accessible, and continuous:

● continuous delivery as a relay race
● turning monitoring into automated action
● developer experience at the heart

We’ll share a demo of a delivery pipeline that includes Concourse CI, Pivotal Build Service, and Spinnaker CD with Pivotal Container Service as the destination. You’ll learn how a loosely coupled pipeline can provide speed with guardrails, enabling you to scale delivery of your modern applications.

This webinar is especially relevant for those who:

● think full software delivery automation is a pipe dream.
● have an app delivery pipeline that’s a brittle monolith to maintain.
● suspect all your delivery problems are solved with Kubernetes.

For the most part, we know what IT needs to do become a "tech company": move to a more frequent, usually weekly release cycle, focus on customer-centric design, and rely on cloud platforms to automate infrastructure toil. What does the rest of your organization, outside of IT, need to do?

In part two of this webinar series, we discuss new models and tactics to break the business bottleneck across strategy, finance, and management. Based on case studies and first hand experience you'll be able to start planning the rollout of digital transformation beyond IT.

"Digital transformation is a fancy term for customer innovation and operational excellence that drive financial results." —John Rymer and Jeffrey Hammond, Forrester

Digital transformation is a strategic imperative for many organizations. They suffer "existential threats" from "tech companies." Thanks to DevOps, Agile, and Cloud, IT departments know how to operate like "tech companies." But do the rest of their organizations - "The Business" - know how to take advantage of these new capabilities?

Based on real world case studies, this series explores the theory that business is now the bottleneck for digital transformation. There are a handful of enterprises that have broken the business bottleneck, like retailer, The Home Depot, that are figuring it out and thriving. There are more organizations, though, that are stumbling. IT isn’t the bottleneck anymore, it’s finance, strategy, and management.

Part one explains this case, and part two will prescribe how organizations can break the bottleneck.

Supporting legacy applications—much less figuring out how to containerize them—is not high on anyone’s list. Everyone has old infrastructure hosting even older apps, and is asked to “get it in a container.” With the introduction of Windows clusters in Kubernetes, we’re given a straightforward way of accomplishing this that results in very little tech debt.

In this hour-long online class, we’ll set the following goals:

● Make no code changes during the move.
● Run the app in a true Windows container.
● Show step-by-step how it can be accomplished.

We look forward to you joining us.

Kubernetes is all the rage, and there are a ton of tools to deploy it. There are installers, cloud managed setups, full distributions like Pivotal Container Service (PKS), etc. but there’s always the question - beyond the software aspect, what do I need to build and provide for a successful container orchestration environment? Host types? What about storage? Networking? Load balancing?

Attendees of this webinar will walk away with an understanding of the considerations when choosing:

● compute platforms to run containers, along with storage systems (what is CSI anyways?);
● networking and load balancing.

Think of this as ‘K8S for infrastructure folks’.

The Accelerate State of DevOps Report is the result of five years of research—and more than 30,000 data points—and aims to understand how software delivery and operational (SDO) performance drives organizational performance.

In-memory caching is not new technology. But it takes on renewed significance with cloud-native, distributed applications. Modern day caching can alleviate the performance and availability challenges associated with your most important modern apps.

In this webinar, we will explore why caching should be a vital part of your distributed systems. You’ll learn how:

● A highly available cache can keep apps online serving data, and protect against data loss, in the event of infrastructure failure.
● An elastic cache like PCC can adjust to the needs of your applications. Elasticity at the data layer is crucial for the elasticity of the entire system.
● A caching layer can reduce the adverse efforts of network latency on system performance.
● Enterprises use PCC alongside Pivotal Platform. We’ll also examine the day-to-day experience of managing the caching service.
● PCC can support caching patterns for Spring and .NET microservices.

Join us to find out how caching can improve the performance of your essential customer-facing systems.

As the popularity of microservices continues to rise, so does the need for an efficient means of intercommunication. Features such as service discovery, client-side load balancing, and circuit breakers become invaluable tools as the complexity of your landscape grows. Thus, the rising popularity of the service mesh as means of delivering those capabilities.

While this technology space is still young, Istio and Envoy have already become the tools that many use to solve these problems. The Pivotal Application Service (PAS) integration with these solutions introduced weighted routing and guaranteed service identity—and now we’re bringing these features to Pivotal Container Service (PKS) via the new Pivotal Ingress Router.

In this webinar, we’ll explore why a service mesh matters and how Pivotal Ingress Router works, and we’ll give you a sneak peak into its future.

Over the last few years, software containers have become a big deal. According to Gartner, "by 2023, Kubernetes will be deployed in more than 80% of all on-premises private cloud and cloud-inspired environments, up from less than 10% today, requiring I&O to acquire operational competencies."

The wide adoption of containers has been primarily driven by developers. But to see real success, you need to work across both development and operations teams to ensure the environment in which these containers run can operate securely and at scale.

Join Pivotal Platform Architect, Adam Fowler, for a webinar where we’ll explore how a platform offering, layered on top of containers, enables developers to build and deploy applications at speed and scale, thereby increasing productivity and product time to market.

You can’t have cloud-native applications without a modern approach to databases and backing services. Data professionals are looking for ways to transform how databases are provisioned and managed.

In this webinar, we’ll cover practical strategies you can employ to deliver improved business agility at the data layer. We’ll discuss the impact that microservices are having in the enterprise, and what this means for MySQL and other popular databases. Join us and learn the answers to these common questions:

● How can you meet the operational challenge of scaling the number of MySQL database instances and managing the fleet?
● Adding to this scale challenge, how can your MySQL instances maintain availability in a world where the underlying IT infrastructure is ephemeral?
● How can you secure data in motion?
● How can you enable self-service while maintaining control and governance?

We’ll cover these topics and share how enterprises like yours are delivering greater outcomes with our Pivotal Platform managed MySQL.

Now you can scale without fear of failure.

How do you avoid a messy jumble of configuration management? First, you can rule out holding settings internally to the app. Hard coding values in a compiled artifact limits almost everything about an application’s ability to scale. Attaching a .config file to each instance of the application is also not reasonable. (Yes, your externalized config values from the artifact.) But you’re no better off with managing and updating things.

This class will visit the Microsoft.Extensions.Configuration package and the many options it offers .NET Core developers. We’ll cover everything from using the default providers (and what’s going on under the covers) to custom providers implemented in Steeltoe. There are many stops in between where developers can achieve the best mix of business requirements and technical needs.

Attend this class to learn the following:

● How to use external configurations with Spring Config using Steeltoe
● Best practices for externalizing configuration
● How to get the most from Spring Config without adding complexity

As the old adage goes, “you can’t manage what you can’t measure.” But what if the measurements are part of the problem? After all, you can move the needle on what you measure, but there may be unanticipated outcomes. When it comes to transforming how an organization delivers software, how you measure success also needs to change.

Despite a marked adoption of agile development practices in the last five years, Forrester Research found that developers haven’t made much progress at delivering software faster. What’s the disconnect? Forrester has found a number of interrelated factors behind organizations that outperform in software delivery. One of them is metrics.

Join this webinar with special guests Jeffrey Hammond, Forrester Research Analyst, and Patrick Feeney, Senior Director of IT Digital Products at Healthcare Services Corporation (HCSC), to learn:

● The types of metrics high-performance software teams are using
● Which metrics are counterproductive to improving software delivery
● How HCSC has used metrics to manage software delivery change
● Which roles should be using which metrics and when

Jeffrey Hammond, Vice President and Principal Analyst, Forrester Research
Patrick Feeney, Senior Director, IT Digital Products, Healthcare Services Corporation

Join Dan Baskette and Jared Ruckle for a view into Pivotal Cloud Foundry (PCF) 2.6 capabilities with demos and expert Q&A. We’ll review the latest features for Pivotal’s flagship app platform, including:

CUSTOM SIDECAR PROCESSES (BETA)
In Pivotal Application ServiceⓇ 2.6 (PAS), developers can run custom sidecar processes in the same container as their application. This simplifies development for all kinds of “wire” use cases, including proxy forwarding, client-side load balancing, timeouts, and retries.

MULTI-CLOUD CONTINUOUS DELIVERY WITH SPINNAKER
PCF now integrates nicely with the most popular CD tool, Spinnaker. Spinnaker 1.14 now supports several advanced CD scenarios with PCF. As a result, large development teams can more easily deploy to production to improve outcomes. Use Spinnaker with PAS as well as Enterprise PKSⓇ. (This integration is backed by community support.)

NEW PERMISSIONS MODEL IN CONCOURSE FOR PCF (coming soon) Concourse for PCF 5.2 will include a powerful new permissions model to better segment access to build pipelines. The new release will add compatibility with CredHub for secrets management as well.

MULTI-DATACENTER REPLICATION CAPABILITIES FOR MySQL (coming soon) MySQL for PCF 2.7 will add multi-DC replication capabilities as a beta feature. This will offer more stability and scalability for your database apps.

Plus much more!

Digital transformation includes replatforming applications to streamline release cycles, improve availability, and manage apps and services at scale. But many enterprises are afraid to take the first step because they don’t know where to start. In this webinar, Rohit will provide a step-by-step guide that covers:

● How to find high-value modernization projects within your application portfolio
● Easy tools and techniques to minimally change applications in preparation for replatforming
● How to choose the platform with the right level of abstraction for your app
● Examples that show how Java EE Websphere applications can be deployed to Pivotal Cloud Foundry

We look forward to you joining us.
