Open edX is the open source MOOC platform that powers edx.org. Come and learn more about who's using Open edX and how you can use it in your organization. If you're already a user, great! We'd love to hear from you.
In this talk I'll tell you my story about contributing to an Open Source community from abroad. Nowadays, communities have a lot of people from all around the world. What's their perspective? How do you deal with timezones? How do you get involved and get others from around the world involved? And how does culture in each area affect the community? Learn this and much more.
I will discuss how to construct and deply a paperless data collection workflow that focuses on the use of FOSS tools such as GeoODK, Qfield, OpenDroneMap, QGIS, and GRASS, and “off-the-shelf” technology such as mobile tablet computers, Bluetooth GPS, and aerial drones. A focus on FOSS tools ensures availability to all, encourages reproducibility and open scientific methods, and fosters wide compatibility in data collection strategies and storage formats. Examples will come from the field of Archaeology, but methods apply widely.
Odoo is a complete ERP solution that offers a range of business applications that form a complete suite of enterprise management applications targeting companies of all sizes. Odoo is used successfully in Manufacturing, Services, Utilities, and Construction industries.
openATTIC and DeepSea introduce rich and powerful monitoring and alerting functionality for Ceph clusters. The functionality is based on analyzing and visualizing time series metrics via the leading open source projects Prometheus and Grafana, integrated with openATTIC—and all deployed seamlessly via Salt and DeepSea. After this presentation, you will understand the architecture, use cases, and minimal configuration. You will know how to leverage our default dashboards, how to create new queries and alert rules, and, of course, how to interpret the data and graphs.
As the OpenNMS project sails into its 19th year, its core goal remains unchanged: to be the de-facto platform for large-scale networked management, while steering true to open-source principles. Changing technology is driving all monitoring players into new territory where both the network and the nodes it connects are increasingly "cloudy". This talk updates familiar fans, and introduces the curious, to the ways OpenNMS continues to adapt. From increasingly modular and distributed operations with Minion, to new support for streaming telemetry and flows, learn where we're navigating.
ZFS was first released in 2005 and rebranded as OpenZFS in 2010. The original code has been ported to several platforms and is now available on Linux, OSX, FreeBSD, Illumos/Solaris, and was recently ported to Windows. The original design principles consisted of using pooled storage, transactional object model, end-to-end data integrity, and a simple but powerful administration model. This talk will discuss the basic principles of ZFS and the features that have led to its success.
Instrumentation of applications is a critical and continuous task on any production environment. Logging as part of that cycle, requires special handling in Cloud Native environments, specifically when applications runs at scale.
The following presentation will discuss the challenges of Logging in Cloud Native environments, pitfalls and best practices to implement a resilience logging layer in containerized/orquestrated systems.
A talk covering the challenges of remote and long range communication to connect even the most remote of places. This talk will be covering the new (and very old) methods of transmitting data and how to bring these to the age of cloud computing. New technologies such as LoRA and LTE-M2M offer plenty of options to build out mesh networks for transmitting data. But what options work best? This talk will primarily focus on weather projects such as weather stations and weather balloons and the challenges these systems face. If you are interested in wireless or a weather buff, this talk is for you.
Protect your personal privacy, cloud accounts and passwords. It takes seconds to try credentials stolen from one site on many other sites. It's your data and privacy, effectively use KeePassX to protect it.
Attendees will learn important features for a password manager and how to use one for unique credentials (username, password, security questions and answers, birth date, shoe size, etc.) to build account separation for every site. They will become familiar with subaddressing for unique email addresses, command line tools for random strings and dates and hints for speaking random strings.
