Master blockchain, machine learning, industry APIs and open source technology while competing in a four-month virtual hackathon with more than $50,000 USD in prizes!

Kerala’s Biggest Developer Conference – Developer Weekend in Trivandrum on September 23-24 2017. Developer Weekend is an initiative to bring awareness about the upcoming technologies such as Machine Learning, Virtual Reality, Chat bots etc. We believe that people should have equal opportunity to learn about the things that run the world – regardless of where they come from, where they live, or how “modern” their cities are! Knowledge shouldn’t stop with steel-and-glass skyscrapers and carefully carved neighborhoods. The true potential of knowledge can be harvested only when it is allowed to flow down and seep through the deepest sections in the society, making them equally empowered as anyone else.

Join Marianne Hollier, HCL Technologies at “What Does Continuous Testing Really Mean?”

You may have heard the term “continuous testing” and thought it was just the DevOps flavor of the month … or that it isn’t part of DevOps … or that it isn’t for cloud-based applications. Marianne Hollier says that continuous testing means adopting the right set of automated tests along with service virtualization, which allows the team to simulate missing dependencies and to start testing earlier and more frequently. She shares how the right combination of best practices and tools can help software development and testing teams adopt a continuous testing approach. Since you can’t test everything and you can’t automate all your tests, Marianne explores how you can find the right combination across the practices of defects, test management, test automation, analytics, environments, service virtualization, and test data. Join Marianne for a discussion of the tools and solutions—including Rational Test Workbench—that enable efficient adoption of these best practices.

Marianne will make available a limited number of copies of Continuous Testing for Dummies, her book that dispels the top ten myths of continuous testing.

NOTE: All IBM Code Tech Talks are held at 11:00 a.m. Eastern Time (North America) unless otherwise specified. A replay of the presentation will be available for viewing on our Ustream page immediately after the call.

While containers on Linux (and now Windows) have mostly been focused around the Docker runtime for the past several years, Docker itself has been spinning out the lower layers of their container runtime as separate open source projects. They’ve contributed these projects to open foundations to create a common basis on which Docker and others can build container-native software stacks from common and open components.

Containerd v1.0 is an evolution of the original containerd project, which was founded in 2016 to manage the Open Container Initiative “runc” common container executor. The eventual containerd release will provide all the runtime capabilities needed for the Docker stack, the Kubernetes stack, and many other cloud and container native use cases.

In this tech talk, we’ll look at a brief history of modern container runtimes, the decisions and architectural changes that brought containerd to life, and recent development and architecture updates on the containerd 1.0 release, expected in 4Q 2017. If you’re interested in learning about the underpinnings of the Docker and Kubernetes ecosystems at the runtime level, you’ll gain a wealth of information on the container runtime and OS layer interface implemented by these lower tiers of the stack.

Presenter

• Phil Estes is a Senior Technical Staff Member in the office of the CTO of IBM Watson & Cloud Platform. Phil is a core contributor and maintainer on the Docker engine project where he has contributed key features like user namespace support and multi-platform image capabilities. He’s a a founding maintainer of the containerd project, and participates in the Open Container Initiative as a contributor to the development of runc. Phil guides both IBM product teams and clients in applying container technology and concepts to their own cloud native efforts. He speaks regularly at industry conferences and meetups and enjoys helping customers and developers alike understand this fast growing ecosystem. Phil is a member of the Docker Captains program and maintains an active blog on container topics. You can find him on Twitter tweeting away as @estesp.

The IBM Code Tech Talks are a series of calls and demos where IBM Code journey project owners peel back the covers of their journey projects, sharing functions, techniques, challenges, and goals.

The series is designed to help you understand more about the journeys currently on IBM Code, introduce you to the developers, communities, and ecosystems that are driving open source innovation at IBM, and help you discover opportunities to use and contribute to these projects and connect with the innovators and communities behind them.

To see previously recorded IBM Code Tech Talks, visit the IBM Code YouTube channel.

Come to this lunch and learn to hear from some of the core contributors of Cloud Foundry (CF) on how to get your app running, scaling, and connecting to a catalog of services before you are done eating.
