Boosting Microservice Performance with Kafka, RabbitMQ, and Spring Recorded: Jun 6 2019 57 mins
Mark Heckler, Spring Developer & Advocate, Pivotal SoftwareIn today’s microservices-based world, many mission-critical systems have distributed elements or are entirely distributed. Ideally, these architectures should improve things such as performance, scalability, reliability, and resilience—but subpar design can limit those strengths, or worse yet, turn them into challenges that need to be overcome.
Messaging platforms help solve these problems and improve the "ilities," but they come with a few complexities of their own. This webinar will teach you how to use open-source solutions like Spring Cloud Stream, RabbitMQ, and Apache Kafka to maximize your distributed systems' capabilities while minimizing complexity. -
What’s New in RabbitMQ 3.8? Recorded: May 23 2019 64 mins
Michael Klishin, RabbitMQ Software Engineer, and Karl Nilsson, RabbitMQ Software EngineerRecent releases of RabbitMQ have made the most popular open-source message broker even more rock solid. The team has made it easier to deploy and easier to operate from Day 2 on. As a de facto standard for message-based architectures, this is great news for teams building microservices and other distributed applications.
But let’s face it: not everyone is running the latest version and taking advantage of these new stability and operational features. Now the next major version (3.8) is shipping and it has some breakthrough features for reliability and scaling. Are you ready?
Join Pivotal’s Michael Klishin and Karl Nilsson, RabbitMQ Software Engineers, as they share what’s new in RabbitMQ 3.8. You’ll learn:
● How making RabbitMQ persistent and fault tolerant is evolving from mirrored queues to quorum queues

Microservices, Events, and Breaking the Data Monolith with Kafka Recorded: Feb 27 2019 62 mins
Cornelia Davis, Author & VP, Technology, Pivotal with Ben Stopford, Author & Technologist, Office of CTO, ConfluentOne of the trickiest problems with microservices is dealing with data as it becomes spread across many different bounded contexts. An event architecture and event-streaming platform like Kafka provide a respite to this problem. Event-first thinking has a plethora of other advantages too, pulling in concepts from event sourcing, stream processing, and domain-driven design.
In this talk, Ben and Cornelia will tackle how to do the following:
● Transform the data monolith to microservices
● Manage bounded contexts for data fields that overlap
● Use event architectures that apply streaming technologies like Kafka to address the challenges of distributed data

Developing Serverless Applications on Kubernetes with Knative Recorded: Feb 21 2019 56 mins
Bryan Friedman, Director of Product Marketing, Pivotal and Brian McClain, Principal Product Marketing Manager, PivotalServerless computing has become a hot topic in developer communities. The use of ephemeral containers eliminates the need for always-on infrastructure. But the real payoff for serverless is greater code simplicity and developer efficiency. Sounds great! Except the open-source serverless framework space is crowded and complex. Each unique offering approaches functions differently, with varying methods for triggering, scaling, and event formatting. How is that efficient?
One thing that most everybody can agree on is to build on top of Kubernetes. With that as the only common ground though, there is still too much fragmentation for developers to wade through when deciding on the right open source serverless solution.
That's where Knative comes in. An open-source project from Google, Pivotal, and other industry leaders, Knative provides a set of common tooling on top of Kubernetes to help developers build serverless applications. It extends Kubernetes by combining Istio with Custom Resource Definitions to enable a higher-level of abstraction for developers. This brings support for source-to-container builds, autoscaling, routing, and event sourcing. Join this session with Brian McClain and Bryan Friedman to see a complete working demo of Knative and learn:
● What are the components of Knative and how do they work together
● What are the different ways to deploy serverless applications and functions on Knative
● How and when to use Knative’s build features, such as Buildpacks
● What is Knative’s eventing model and how are event sources used to trigger functions
● How Project riff compliments development on top of Knative -
Cloud-Native Security: Processes and Tools for Real-World Transformation Recorded: Feb 20 2019 59 mins
Jeff Williams, co-founder and Chief Technology Officer of Contrast Security and David M. Zendzian, Pivotal Global CTOCan your organization support developer self-service across 11,000 workloads with certainty that 100% of the workloads are security-approved across the entire stack? The answer is yes with a cloud-native approach.
Cloud-native platforms not only make it easier to support the kind of cultural shift necessary for continuously shipping software, they make it easier to practice good security and reduce the available attack surface. But an attack on the application itself can undermine all platform controls.
In this webinar, Jeff and David will discuss application development code security in pre-production as well as runtime security at scale for cloud-native production applications. This session will cover the following:
● Tools that work well with rapid-cycle CI/CD pipelines
● Baking audit and compliance into pipelines
● Achieving zero downtime CVE patching and updates
● Vulnerability discovery, and blocking of application threats and attacks in the runtime
● Demonstration of threat discovery and blocking
This is the second webinar in a series presented by Pivotal and Contrast Security on cloud-native security best practices. The previous webinar in this series is available in the attachment section.

Securing Microservices with Spring and Pivotal Cloud Foundry Recorded: Jan 29 2019 50 mins
Simon Rowe, PivotalMicroservices offer advantages and disadvantages for security. Microservices can be developed, updated, and scaled separately. However, with more and more microservices to manage, there are numerous doors that intruders can access within an application. While their isolated and standalone structure within applications makes them easier to defend, microservices bring with them their own additional security challenges.
In this talk, we'll walk through a set of Spring-coordinated microservices that are insecure and will integrate them with an OAuth 2.0 Authorization Server in order to make them secure. Then we’ll look at the challenges with single sign-on and how Pivotal Cloud Foundry can help to overcome them. -
Four Steps Toward a Safer Continuous Delivery Practice (Hint: Add Monitoring) Recorded: Jan 23 2019 58 mins

Chaos Engineering in a World of Distributed Spring Boot Apps Recorded: Dec 13 2018 62 mins
Russ Miles, Benjamin Wilms, CodecentricAs developers, one of our primary goals is to develop stable, secure, and bug-free software that will not deprive us of sleep or keep us away from new and exciting topics. To accomplish these and other goals, we write unit and integration tests that alert us to unexpected behavior and ensure the patterns we test don’t lead to errors. However, today’s architectures contain many components that can’t be fully covered with unit and integration tests. Thus, servers and components we’re not aware of still manage to drag our entire system into the abyss.
This issue led to the birth of the Chaos Monkey for Spring Boot. The inspiration was Netflix’s Chaos Monkey and the culture of Chaos Engineering. On an application level, we want the possibility to cause specific stress and error situations.
This session will detail the possibilities and deployment scenarios of the Chaos Monkey for Spring Boot. You will also learn how well the ChaosToolkit works together with the Chaos Monkey for Spring Boot.

End-to-End Reactive Data Access Using R2DBC with RSocket and Proteus Recorded: Dec 6 2018 61 mins
Ryland Degnan, co-founder and CTO of Netifi and Dan Baskette, Pivotal hostLack of asynchronous relational database drivers in Java has been a barrier to writing scalable, data-driven applications for many. R2DBC is seeking to change this with a new API designed from the ground up for reactive programming against relational databases—its intent ito support reactive data access built on natively asynchronous, non-blocking SQL database drivers.
How does this change the game for data access in the cloud? Used in conjunction with RSocket and Proteus, it is now possible to write applications benefiting from reactive streaming end-to-end, from the browser all the way to the database. No more fiddling with paging APIs, polling for updates, or writing complex logic to merge data from multiple sources--reactive streams can handle this all for you!
RSocket is an open-source, reactive networking protocol that is a collaborative development initiative of Netifi with Pivotal, Facebook, and others. Proteus is a freely available broker for RSocket that is designed to handle the challenges of communication between complex networks of services—both within the data center and over the internet—extending to mobile devices and browsers.
Attend this webinar to learn how to use Pivotal Cloud Foundry with R2DBC and Proteus to build reactive microservices that return large amounts of data in a streaming fashion over RSocket.

Better Deployments with Sub Environments Using Spring Cloud and Netflix Ribbon Recorded: Nov 29 2018 54 mins
Roi Ezra & Liel Chayoun, IntelOne of today’s biggest challenges is releasing products more frequently while reducing the negative impact on customers using the system. When not using immutable infrastructure—where all environments are exact copies of each other in the cloud—staging environments are often used to try and mirror production environments. But despite best efforts, discrepancies between environments are common, and can lead to deployment failures.
During this webinar, we’ll discuss how to use Spring Cloud and Netflix Ribbon capabilities to create sub environments, enabling you to target specific users or groups within a variety of infrastructure environments. This approach lets you gradually deploy changes to the system while reducing the negative impact on customers in production.
