Agenda entry: The CentraStage experience, Ian van Reenen, CTO CentraStage: With 200,000 distributed agents with persistent SSL connections, keeping them all alive in the cloud can be a challenge. In this talk Ian will share the learnings of CentraStage regarding ELB vs HAProxy, and give insight into their strategies to cater for connection avalanches after outages. Organiser's comment: Our first double-act as Ian from CentraStage brought up his DevOps lead, Jason, for a strong discussion-led session about how CentraStage have worked with ELB and HAProxy. This was a great talk with some really engaging Q&A, thanks guys for bringing us an interesting topic.]]>

Agenda entry: Quarterbacking the AWS Estate, Ian Meyers, AWS Solutions Architect. In this session we'll review real world ways to ensure your AWS estate is secure and that you can keep good controls over what happens, when, and how much it costs. Covered in this session will be Account Management best practices, how to enable and configure programmatic billing, as well as setup for cost allocation tagging and billing alerts. Ian will also give a quick update on new AWS Services of Data Pipeline, Redshift and new High Capacity instances. Organiser's commentary: Delighted as always to welcome a speaker from AWS. This time we had Ian, AWS Solutions Architect, to talk on security, programmatic billing, and exciting new products such as Red Shift and OpsWorks. This session was a particular coup as we had a good Q&A on OpsWorks with Ian on the very same day it was put on general release.]]>

19th February 2013, AWS User Group UK, Meetup #3, Managing your apps on AWS: Real life lessons with GigaSpaces, Ron Zanver, GigaSpaces /slideshow/19th-february-2013-aws-user-group-uk-meetup-3-protect-your-app-from-outages-ron-zanver-gigaspaces/17079748 20130219meetup3presentation1-ronzanvergigaspaces-130310061506-phpapp02
Agenda entry: Managing your apps on AWS: Real life lessons with GigaSpaces, Ron Zanver. We’ve all learned Murphy’s inevitable law the hard way – if it can go wrong, it often will! But that doesn’t mean we can’t be ready for such scenarios in the cloud. In this talk, GigaSpaces will focus on the AWS environment, which is dynamic and volatile by nature, and how to maximise your utilisation and minimise downtime. This session will show you how you can architect your cloud-hosted systems to sustain such outages, delving into how to choose the right PaaS for the job, addressing data centre failures, how to avoid single points of failure, and more. Organiser's commentary: Ron Zanver from GigaSpaces came to talk about the inherent instability of life in the cloud, and what you can do to protect yourself - it's all about good design and architecture. He also introduced us to GigaSaces' new Cloudify product, for abstracting estate management across multiple clouds and cloud vendors.]]>
