Docker recipes for Java developers
Arun Gupta
—
Director, Developer Advocacy And Technical Marketing, Red Hat, Inc.
Containers are enabling developers to package their applications (and underlying dependencies) in new ways that are portable and work consistently everywhere? On your machine, in production, in your data center, and in the cloud. And Docker has become the de facto standard for those portable containers in the cloud, whether you’re working with Amazon Web Services, Google Cloud Platform, or Microsoft Azure.
Docker is the developer-friendly Linux container technology that enables creation of your stack: OS, JVM, app server, app, and all your custom configuration. So with all it offers, how comfortable are you and your team taking Docker from development to production? Are you hearing developers say, “But it works on my machine!” when code breaks in production? And if you are, how many hours are then spent standing up an accurate test environment to research and fix the bug that caused the problem?
This sessions offers developers an introduction to Docker, from installation, to exploring Docker Hub, to crafting their own images, to adding Java apps and running custom containers. It will also explain how to use Kubernetes to orchestrate these containers together.

Containers enable developers to package their applications and underlying dependencies in ways that are portable and work consistently everywhere--on your machine, in production, in your datacenter, and in the cloud.
No matter what your cloud platform, Docker has become the de facto standard for creating portable containers in the cloud. Docker is the developer-friendly Linux container technology that enables creation of your stack: OS, JVM, app server, app, and all your custom configuration.
So with all it offers, how comfortable are you and your team taking Docker from development to production? Does your code work on your machine but break in production? How many hours are you spending standing up an accurate test environment to research and fix the bug that caused the problem?
Bring your laptop and get ready to participate in an introductory level, hands-on session with Docker. In the lab, you will:
- Install Docker (including boot2docker on Windows/Mac).
- Explore Docker hub.
- Craft your own images.
- Add Java apps.
- Run custom containers.

OpenShift for operators
OpenShift 3 couples the speed and portability of Docker containers with the cluster management capabilities of Kubernetes. For developers, the real power of OpenShift is in how it uses these technologies to provide full application life-cycle support, from source code through production to application deployments. But what if the application that you are trying to manage is OpenShift itself?
In this lab, you'll learn about how OpenShift works and what you can do to integrate OpenShift into your network with various deployment tools, authentication options, and routing technologies. Once your OpenShift system is up and running, you'll learn about how you can manage it as a project from within itself, the same way developers will manage their projects running on OpenShift. This lab is highly recommended for anyone considering an OpenShift deployment for their private cloud.

Immutable infrastructure, containers, & the future of microservices
Many current trends in software development and deployment are based around the concept of microservices, small independent services interconnected via application programming interfaces (APIs).
The concept of immutable infrastructure is another area of application life cycle that’s gaining attention. In immutable infrastructure, we deploy immutable components that are replaced each time we deploy instead of in-place upgrades.
In this session, we’ll discuss the use of containers as a delivery mechanism for microservices following the immutable infrastructure paradigm. We’ll show this in the context of Red Hat Enterprise Linux Atomic Host.

Enterprises and IoT
Is middleware dying? As interest in mobile grows, we're starting to hear that existing middleware implementations and approaches are simply not right for the mobile developer, cloud, or the Internet of Things (IoT). Some even say these new technologies represent the death of middleware. But we think that’s a risky and short-sighted belief.
Java (particularly Java EE) plays a critical role in Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) and mobile solutions, and it’s also used as a platform for other languages, like Ruby, that are being adopted for use in PaaS and mobile development.

Accelerate DevOps with OpenShift Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS)
While DevOps doesn't require cloud technologies, certain cloud offerings like Platform-as-a-Service provide a critical framework for the kind of automation that makes real DevOps transformation happen.
DevOps involves rethinking the relationships between development, quality assurance (QA), and operations teams and changing how we manage the workloads of these teams. But behind all the kanbans, WIP analysis, and A/B split testing, there is a set of technology choices that can foster or hinder software delivery. PaaS can be an important accelerator for DevOps implementation.
In this session, we’ll give you a short primer on DevOps, explaining how some people see DevOps as a merging of development and operational roles, while others view it as delivery process optimization.
From there, we’ll show you how DevOps and PaaS intersect in OpenShift by Red Hat. Through a demo and discussion, we’ll show how PaaS accelerates the following DevOps practices:
- Infrastructure as code
- Deployment pipelines
- Just-in-time application platform delivery
- Automation to relieve delivery constraints

Cisco delivers a highly available platform using OpenShift Enterprise by Red Hat
The Cisco Application and Web Services (AWS) team operates the middleware
infrastructure that hosts thousands of web applications. Many of these business-critical apps required nearly 100% uptime. In early 2014, the AWS team deployed OpenShift Enterprise by Red Hat as its Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) offering. The team had to ensure high availability of the platform before moving business-critical applications to it.
Cisco’s solution uses features in OpenShift Enterprise 2.1 along with custom automation and request routing. The platform is now capable of running applications in active/active mode, across multiple datacenters, in multiple geographies. Application developers can choose the deployment topology that best meets their availability requirements. Options range from single datacenter deployments to multiple datacenter deployments with stand-by DR. At the highest level of resiliency, critical applications are able to withstand the total failure of 2 datacenters with no human intervention.
Attend this session for a technical review of how Cisco used OpenShift Enterprise 2.1 features including regions, zones, and HA features to build this highly available platform. Learn about Cisco’s custom, flexible routing layer and the automation strategies that shield developers from infrastructure complexity.
By applying the techniques described in this session, you too can run critical business applications with high availability on your OpenShift Enterprise platform.

Microservices on OpenShift: Where we've been & where we're going
Microservices are becoming a popular way to make software lighter and more scalable, and they get software in users’ hands faster than ever. While the frameworks are evolving quickly, developers are overlooking what platform best support microservices.
OpenShift—whether it's the online, enterprise, or open source edition—is an ideal platform to handle microservices. OpenShift gives developers a great deal of control over their platform, which in turn gives them the freedom to evolve as rapidly as the frameworks and their clients demand.
In this talk, we'll review:
- How OpenShift currently supports a microservice architecture.
- What cartridges are available off the shelf, such as Node.js or vert.x.
- Challenges that OpenShift's current versions impose on a microservice architecture.
- The potential that OpenShift 3 holds for microservices.

An overview of Linux networking subsystem: Extended BPF
Today’s virtual network infrastructure solutions are flow-based and not dynamically extensible. To deliver on the promise of software-defined networking (SDN), network functions need to be delivered in the same automated and self-service manner as virtual machines. To meet this need, networks require a greater degree of flexibility that will only come with an extensible data plane.
In this session, we’ll review how previous efforts, including Netfilter, Berkley Packet Filter (BPF), Open vSwitch (OVS), and TC, approached the problem of extensibility.
We’ll show you an open source solution available within the Red Hat Enterprise Linux kernel, where extending and merging some of the existing concepts leads to an extensible framework that satisfies the networking needs of datacenter and cloud virtualization.

Agile & DevOps: The secret ingredients of faster production deployment
Agile development methods have helped many projects decrease development time and effort. But, too often, these improvements are lost as completed features sit for long periods of time due to manual integration and deployment difficulties.
This self-inflicted pain doesn’t have to continue. Adding DevOps to the development mix will get your projects to market faster by increasing the efficiency of the project as a whole and removing the bottlenecks typically experienced during testing and deployment phases.
In this session, we’ll explore:
- The intersection between agile and DevOps and how the combination of the 2 is more powerful than either on its own.
- Real-world examples from our consulting experience of successful (and even less successful) agile and DevOps transformations.
- A summary of agile and DevOps practices, techniques, and tools for enterprise solutions built using Red Hat JBoss Middleware.

Manager, Z Systems Technical Strategy, IBM Systems, IBM
A new ecosystem has emerged and matured with many open source/freemium models. This new Open Source Ecosystem initiative is now being addressed aggressively to enable Linux on z Systems for equivalency with other platforms, while still delivering on an Enterprise Linux value proposition. This strong ecosystem has been enabled with an execution strategy that moves beyond traditional porting and testing of individual products to a strategy that enables and encourages the open source community to consider z Systems an equal player. This content focusing on three major categories that create a foundation of developer languages/compilers, databases, and cloud infrastructure components that are ported and supported on z Systems. These foundational technologies open up the aperture for application developers and other ISVz to use the unique properties of Enterprise Linux on z Systems.

A DevOps state of mind
Rapid innovation, changing business landscapes, and new IT demands force businesses to make changes quickly. The DevOps approach is a way to increase business agility through collaboration, communication, and integration across different teams in the IT organization.
In this presentation, you’ll learn about:
- The acceleration of application delivery for the business with DevOps
- The transformation of IT to a DevOps, microservices, and container-based cloud architecture
including the use of a PaaS along with Docker, Google’s Kubernetes, and Jenkins.
- How DevOps practices can operate in a Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS)-enabled environment.
- PaaS and DevOps, used together, can reduce software delivery cycle times, drive automation, and increase efficiency.
- How other organizations are using DevOps and how to replicate their success.
Join Chris Van Tuin, Chief Technologist, West at Red Hat, as he walks through how DevOps can accelerate application delivery for the business.

Performing live backups on Red Hat Gluster Storage
There are unique challenges to backing up data stored on a distributed storage
solution, such as Red Hat Gluster Storage. In this session, attendees will work
with data on Red Hat Gluster Storage and will isolate system architectures to
perform efficient backups of the data. This backup will be performed while the
distributed filesystem is still live! The lab will focus on using the unshare
utility, part of the Red Hat system utilities, to isolate the backup program
leaving the rest of the systems running fully connected.
