CognitiveScale’s Cortex platform helps enable a robust AI Engineering discipline by seamlessly scaling AI applications across cloud platforms via RedHat’s OpenShift. The Cortex platform is embedded on OpenShift deployments providing trust and governance across all models and applications. Cortex brings multiple data models together, composes the AI solution, orchestrates execution, deploys it on any cloud, and optimizes the business impact. This allows for business and IT leaders to work together and leverage a platform that deploys repeatable patterns for AI solution success.

Scale AI applications across cloud platforms

In this session, we will talk about the evolution from Dashboards to Business Intelligence, and Operational Intelligence; and how everything is evolving into a new framework where we use AI/ML that also requires a higher degree of monitoring. We will explore the amount of monitoring required by MLOps, and how Openshift can agnostically host the monitoring applications required to keep an eye on how the operation is doing. This session will conclude with an example of Grafana application hosted in an Openshift environment.

From Business Objectives to Monitoring Dashboards for MLOps using OC

Most companies have been working to modernize their applications. And yet, when asked, "what do you view as the main driver of innovation at your company?" The response is nearly always that data is the primary driver of innovation. In this talk, we will look at what a data mesh is and how we can transition from a monolithic approach to data, to an approach which can become the data platform for our microservices as we modernize our application architectures.

The Data Mesh and why consider the architectural paradigm

Applying AI to IT Operations(AIOps) is the thing of the hour. Most IT organizations generate a large amount of operations data in the process of operating their software and are beginning to embrace the adoption of AI to support IT operations. Yet, real-world operations data is rarely available as a public dataset. Moreover, most AIOps tools out there are closed source.
In this session, the speakers introduce AI4CI(AI for Continuous Integration), a set of open source AIOps tools involving open operations data from Kubernetes CI/CD platforms. They demonstrate a set of Jupyter Notebooks that are automated using Kubeflow Pipelines into reproducible workflows that collect data from open CI/CD data sources, calculate and visualize key performance indicator metrics, and build AI/ML services to support operations. They also introduce how to build and deploy ML services which can answer questions like “how can we optimize the running time of our tests and prevent bottlenecks in our CI/CD pipeline”, “how to an ML model to efficiently triage a new issue or a pull request”, and “how to preemptively detect patterns in failing tests or builds by looking at the logs”.
By making the tools and relevant data openly accessible, AI4CI aims to cultivate an open source community that fosters collaboration between data scientists and DevOps engineers.
By the end of the talk, the audience will learn how to build AIOps monitoring tools and automated metric dashboards that can help provide more visibility into their tests to better support their CI/CD processes.

Using AIOps to Speed up CI/CD processes

Realizing when mechanical devices (e.g. pump data, manufacturing devices) are having mechanical issues and are showing signs of failure (via sensors) are important items to know when you need to keep your mechanical devices running 24/7. Therefore creating failure prediction algorithms and/or model(s) are essential parts of your mechanical equipment maintenance toolbox. But how do you get started? Is it hard to curate sensor data? How do you create, train and deploy failure prediction algorithms and models? What kind of platform do you use for these items?
Failure prediction in real time on time series data (gathered by sensors) can be realized with the use of Open Source tools. We will deliver an overall view of how to start with the generation of new raw sensor data (typically captured by an Edge device), create a failure prediction model and end up with a real time graph that shows alerts warning that a failure is imminent for a mechanical device.
But that’s not where the story ends. We also need to address ‘security’. From transferring and storing data to working with models, security is vital to working with sensors at the Edge. Taking lessons learned from Cyber Security Crime we will discuss how Edge and IoT hardware can be easy to exploit. We will then outline what security fundamentals are important to have in place along with common technology mitigations.
Join us while we take you through creating data science applications on the edge and how we secure data, models and edge devices.

Dancing with Data Science and Security on the Edge

Today, most public sector organizations have built their operations using legacy applications. In many cases, these applications are still critical, but not nearly as performant or cost-effective as they once were. As such, agency leaders are looking for ways to become faster and more agile so that they can continue to enable innovation, control costs, and provide new ways to consume information. 

How can agencies take advantage of the assets they have already developed over the years, and simultaneously take advantage of new open technologies? During this webcast, join public sector decision-makers to examine the importance of application modernization, discuss trends and best practices for a more unified modernization strategy to support a newly distributed workforce.

Join us for the next Red Hat® Coffee Hour with Intel session as we celebrate U.S. Professional Wellness Month by encouraging personal and professional growth. As many seasoned professionals retire from the workforce, learn from Carla Harris, Senior Client Advisor, Former Vice Chairman and managing Director of Morgan Stanley, and author of Expect to Win: 10 Proven Strategies to surviving in the workplace, how to build the next generation of leaders. In past decades, particularly in “producer cultures”, professionals were given positions of leadership and authority because they were great “producers”. The top financial trader, the banker that posted the most revenues, or the lawyer that had the most billable hours were compensated with money, an elevated title and positions of leadership without much thought as to whether the person was the kind of individual that could motivate and inspire others to perform beyond their own expectations. Yet, today, we find ourselves in an environment where a growing majority of the professional workforce are millennials and generation Z’ers who demand motivation and inspiration as table stakes for their performance in any environment. During this session, we’ll talk with Carla about what it takes to be an outstanding leader in today’s environment. She’ll cover the 8 things that leaders must be INTENTIONAL about in order to be more impactful: authenticity, building trust, clarity, creating other leaders, diversity, innovation, inclusivity, and voice.

Why everyone needs DevOps now: Twenty years studying high performing organizations

Join us at the next Red Hat® Coffee Hour as we talk with Gene Kim, Author of the Wall Street Journal Best-Seller, The Unicorn Project.

Gene has spent over 20 years studying high-performing technology organizations. In The Unicorn Project, he attempts to frame what he’s learned studying technology leaders adopting DevOps principles and patterns in large, complex organizations, often having to fight deeply entrenched orthodoxies. And yet, despite huge obstacles, they create incredibly effective and innovative teams that create beacons of greatness that inspire us all.

In his previous books, he’s focused on principles and practices (e.g., Three Ways, Four Types of Work). However, he’s always wanted to describe the spectrum of cultural, experiential and value decisions we make that either enable greatness, or create chronic suffering and underperformance. They are currently as follows:

The First Ideal — Locality and Simplicity
The Second Ideal — Focus, Flow and Joy
The Third Ideal — Improvement of Daily Work
The Fourth Ideal — Psychological Safety
The Fifth Ideal — Customer Focus
In this talk, Gene will share his goals and aspirations for The Unicorn Project, describe in detail the Five Ideals, along with his favorite case studies of both ideal and non-ideal, and why he believes more than ever that DevOps will be one of the most potent economic forces for decades to come.
