Doing for Sustainability, What Open Source Did for Software - Asim Hussain, Green Software Foundation

Monday September 16, 2024 11:20 - 12:00 CEST

Room 0.11-0.12 (Level 0)

In the realm of sustainability, grassroots initiatives often emerge as powerful catalysts for change, driven by the collective wisdom of practitioners. Enter Impact Framework, an open-source tool designed to quantify the environmental impact of software. It takes observations you can easily gather from running systems such as CPU utilization, page views, installs, and prompts, and induces them into environmental impacts like carbon, waste, and water. Drawing parallels to the evolution of open-source software, Impact Framework embodies the ethos of openness—open source, open standards, and open data—as the bedrock of its mission. In this talk, I'll explain the history of Impact Framework and its core concepts and take the audience through a live exercise to demonstrate how to use it to measure the environmental impacts of a piece of software. As we embark on this journey, we echo the sentiment of our community: to do for sustainability what open source did for software—a seismic shift rather than a mere agreement. Join us as we explore the transformative power of open-source principles in driving sustainable impact at scale.

Mastering Windows Monitoring in Kubernetes Environments - Mansi Kulkarni & Kanika Rana, Red Hat

Monday September 16, 2024 11:20 - 12:00 CEST

Room 0.14 (Level 0)

Are you struggling to monitor Windows on Kubernetes as a developer? With the limited support stack available, it can be a challenging task to keep track of everything. Kubernetes now supports HostProcess containers on Windows nodes. As a result, the Windows exporter, a Prometheus exporter for Windows, can be deployed as a host process pod. This feature is introduced as an add-on in the kube-prometheus project. This talk will implement a monitoring stack using Windows exporter on a Windows node in Kubernetes. We start by diving into various metric collectors, their functionalities, and utilization. Subsequently, demonstrate how to implement the Windows exporter, configure a ServiceMonitor, and deploy a Prometheus instance. Once Prometheus is up and running, we highlight the differences in the monitoring approach compared to Linux machines. Finally, we complete the monitoring experience with a Grafana dashboard analyzing the collected metrics.

Understanding Cultural Differences When Approaching OSS - Daniel Izquierdo Cortázar, Bitergia & Willem Jiang, ByteDance

Monday September 16, 2024 11:20 - 12:00 CEST

Room 0.96-0.97 (Level 0)

Willem and Daniel have been discussing on cultural differences between China and Spain and how to effectively engage newcomers from different regions. Two books were used as starting point: The Culture Map book by Erin Meyer and From the Soils by Fei Xiaotong, a sociological study of the Chinese society written in the 40’s. While Western societies tend to be more individualistics when approaching an OSS community, according to the book From the Soils, Chinese society works in a more ‘ring based’ scenarios where network of trust are quite important over the years. As an example in Chinese society, if you want to do business with another person, you need to be introduced by a trusted person. It is like a social currency to play with. In the case of the OSS communities, your personal career and public record can talk for you, so you do not need others to introduce you. Your own brand is your social currency. In China, an extra step may be required and a trusted person may introduce you. This talk will share experiences and good practices learned over the years to engage and onboard newcomers. Specially, those that face specific barriers such as language or cultural ones.

Demystifying Secure Application Communication with Zero Trust and Istio Without Sidecars - Lin Sun, solo.io

Monday September 16, 2024 12:15 - 12:55 CEST

Room 0.11-0.12 (Level 0)

Modern cloud-native applications are frequently distributed across multiple Kubernetes clusters or virtual machines. But what exactly are the requirements for securing communication among these cloud native applications? Is encryption alone sufficient? Do applications require unique identities? How can we ensure the integrity of our applications' data? Do we need to control who can access what? And what are the considerations when dealing with multi-cluster environments? This presentation will explore the essentials of securing application communications within a zero-trust architecture framework. Lin will explain how mutual TLS (mTLS) meets these requirements through its handshake and record protocols. Moreover, she’ll demonstrate live how you can implement mTLS for applications by simply labeling their namespaces, without any restart of applications or sidecars using Istio's ambient mesh.

Developing on Containers with Dev Containers - Hrittik Roy, Loft Labs

Monday September 16, 2024 12:15 - 12:55 CEST

Room 0.14 (Level 0)

Cloud computing has been primarily used by companies for production environments for quite some time now. However, a small group of users have found ways to move their development environment to the cloud. This allows them to access all their shared libraries, build tools, and software development kits (SDKs) on the cloud. As a result, they can build and ship their applications natively on the cloud. Gartner reports that 60% of cloud workloads will be developed and deployed using Container Development Environments (CDEs). In this talk, you will primarily focus on how you can simplify the structure of your projects by utilizing modern standards like devcontainer.json and open source CDEs such as DevPod ( devpod.sh ) to reduce the cognitive load for contributors and eliminate unnecessary obstacles. Moreover, DevPod handles the lifecycle of the infrastructure it runs on, and it can even suspend cloud resources automatically to save on costs. By the end of the talk, you will make local development much easier while saving costs.

Linux in Space: Fault Detection, Recovery and Fault-Tolerant System Designs - Lenka Kosková Třísková & Lukas Mazl, Technical University of Liberec & Tomas Novotny, VZLU

Monday September 16, 2024 14:15 - 14:55 CEST

Hall B (Level 2)

Linux in space must be highly reliable and autonomous, both because of the hostile external environment, the physical unavailability of the system, and the limited data flow and direct system administration capabilities. Radiation and other external influences lead to sudden shutdowns and system reboots. Also, data stored in storage devices are at risk of radiation and physical effects. Therefore, the design of a satellite always considers which parts of the system to duplicate or otherwise insure and how to ensure the system's ability to detect an error and recover. In the design of Linux4Space, we have encountered various approaches to solving the problem (from "we have two SD cards, and one is sure to last six months" to "fully duplicated storage and CPU with error detection"). We have reviewed the designs of other satellites and systems. In this paper, we provide some specific examples from natural satellites and summarize everything we have been able to find and track down for various other solutions, examples, and demonstrations.

The Devboards Community for Android - Amit Pundir, Linaro Ltd.

Monday September 16, 2024 14:15 - 14:55 CEST

Hall C (Level 2)

"Which device prototype or a development board do you suggest?" - got to be one of the most frequently asked question in the embedded workspace. Last year EOSS/ELC'23 was no different and we ran into similar questions around Android development boards. That planted the idea of enabling a community around the development boards or devices that provide decent AOSP (Android Open Source Project) support.

So we started working on The Devboards for Android community initiative https://devboardsforandroid.linaro.org to enable a collaborative space for AOSP system developers. We briefly talked about it at the Android Microconf at LPC'23 as well.

Overall idea of this project is to provide an umbrella space for collaboration and consolidate all the resources about the devices that are known to support AOSP reliably. For each supported device, links are made available to the kernel source, local manifests, device specific files and binaries (like bootloader, firmware, HALs) and documentation. We hope that this initiative will be instrumental in sharing and co-developing features like generic HALs across multiple devices and possibly enabling the supported devices with LAVA CI in the future.

Lightning Talk: Cognitive and Self-Adaptive System for Effective Distributed-Tracing (Using Jaeger, Open Tracing) - Susobhit Panigrahi, Independent

Monday September 16, 2024 14:45 - 14:55 CEST

Room 0.14 (Level 0)

In the realm of distributed systems and microservices architecture,dynamic API tracing systems play a pivotal role in diagnosing API failures and performance issues.However, current implementations often sample only a fraction of traces(1-5%) due to storage and scale constraints,leading to a skewed distribution favoring normal execution traces.This bias hampers effective diagnosis,impacting both developers and SRE teams.Our proposed solution employs a Machine Learning and Cognitive approach to rectify this imbalance in trace collection. By dynamically adapting based on actual data, the system learns to capture higher-interest traces, helping root causing issues. This innovative approach has significantly improved the Mean Time to Resolve (MTTR) for SRE teams, revolutionizing issue triaging within the organization. The Adaptive Sampling technique, driven by data analysis, standardizes trace distribution, reduces storage requirements, and dynamically adjusts the sampling rate.It lowers costs & resource utilization for tracing services, also streamlines trace metric analysis for SRE,offering a forward-looking solution to common challenges in the Observability and Infrastructure space.

Progressive Application Delivery: Istio Ambient Mesh and Argo Rollout in Action - Lin Sun, solo.io

Monday September 16, 2024 15:25 - 16:05 CEST

Room 0.14 (Level 0)

Istio Ambient introduces a sidecar-less paradigm, aiming to simplify workload operations. Lin, a founding member of Istio, will guide you through the progressive application delivery process without sidecars, leveraging Argo Rollout while maintaining security, traffic control, and resilience with ambient service mesh. Lin will demonstrate the use of ArgoCD and Kubernetes Gateway resources (Gateway and HTTPRoute) to systematically increment weights, automatically directing traffic to a new application version. Throughout this process, she'll showcase monitoring using Prometheus metrics provided by Istio to ensure optimal performance. If defined success criteria aren't met, Argo Rollouts automatically triggers a rollback. Lin will illustrate the power of ArgoCD rollout with sidecar-less applications in Istio through a live demo. Additionally, she will delve into cost-saving strategies during rollout and highlight the distinctions between sidecar and sidecar-less application rollouts.

Who Owns This Code? Navigating Code Ownership from InnerSource to Open Source - Clare Dillon, Lero, CURIOSS & Tom Sadler, BBC

Monday September 16, 2024 15:25 - 16:05 CEST

Room 0.94-0.95 (Level 0)

In this session we will dive into the world of code ownership and examine the lines between "mine", "yours", and "ours" in open source and InnerSource projects. We’ll look at the different ways that you can consider the question: “who owns this code?” and how that may differ in open source and InnerSource practices. We’ll unpack the idea of hard vs. soft ownership. We’ll share real-life examples of different code ownership models, showing how they can impact project quality and sustainability. We’ll show how ownership can help empower teams to create and contribute to open source, but also where it can put up barriers. We’ll share some ways to create clarity in the area and examine some of the more subtle challenges related to toxic ownership cultures. This session aims to give attendees insights and strategies to foster effective code ownership in open source and InnerSource projects.

The Power of Mentorship: Your Path to Open Source Success - Stephanie Taylor, Google

Monday September 16, 2024 16:20 - 17:00 CEST

Room 1.61-1.62 (Level 1)

Developers interested in making their first contributions to open source communities often aren’t sure where to start - what community is a good fit, will the community be interested in their ideas, how do they take that first step into a community? You have learned some basics about open source but where do you put those coding skills to work and find cool open source communities doing interesting work you care about? For 20 years Google Summer of Code has helped bridge this gap for over 20,000 beginners to open source (students, young professionals, career switchers, etc.) and helped them find over 1,000 welcoming communities prepared to mentor them as they start their open source journey. Many mentorship programs (Outreachy, LFX) are designed to bring new contributors into the open source ecosystem to keep diverse perspectives coming into OSS. Learn about GSoC and other programs that you can join to put into practice the OSS skills you have been learning.
