Keynote | Red Hat Summit 2019 | DAY 2 Morning


 

>> Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome Red Hat President Products and Technologies. Paul Cormier. Boring. >> Welcome back to Boston. Welcome back. And welcome back after a great night last night of our opening with with Jim and talking to certainly saw ten Jenny and and especially our customers. It was so great last night to hear our customers in how they set their their goals and how they met their goals. All possible because certainly with a little help from red hat, but all possible because of because of open source. And, you know, sometimes we have to all due that has set goals. And I'm going to talk this morning about what we as a company and with community, have set for our goals along the way. And sometimes you have to do that. You know, audacious goals. It can really change the perception of what's even possible. And, you know, if I look back, I can't think of anything, at least in my lifetime, that's more important. Or such a big golden John F. Kennedy setting the gold to the American people to go to the moon. I believe it or not, I was really, really only three years old when he said that, honestly. But as I grew up, I remember the passion around the whole country and the energy to make that goal a reality. So let's sort of talk about in compare and contrast, a little bit of where we are technically at that time, you know, tto win and to beat and winning the space race and even get into the space race. There was some really big technical challenges along the way. I mean, believe it or not. Not that long ago. But even But back then, math Malik mathematical calculations were being shifted from from brilliant people who we trusted, and you could look in the eye to A to a computer that was programmed with the results that were mostly printed out. This this is a time where the potential of computers was just really coming on the scene and, at the time, the space race at the time of space race it. It revolved around an IBM seventy ninety, which was one of the first transistor based computers. It could perform mathematical calculations faster than even the most brilliant mathematicians. But just like today, this also came with many, many challenges And while we had the goal of in the beginning of the technique and the technology to accomplish it, we needed people so dedicated to that goal that they would risk everything. And while it may seem commonplace to us today to trust, put our trust in machines, that wasn't the case. Back in nineteen sixty nine, the seven individuals that made up the Mercury Space crew were putting their their lives in the hands of those first computers. But on Sunday, July twentieth, nineteen sixty nine, these things all came together. The goal, the technology in the team and a human being walked on the moon. You know, if this was possible fifty years ago, just think about what Khun B. Accomplished today, where technology is part of our everyday lives. And with technology advances at an ever increasing rate, it's hard to comprehend the potential that sitting right at our fingertips every single day, everything you know about computing is continuing to change. Today, let's look a bit it back. A computing In nineteen sixty nine, the IBM seventy ninety could process one hundred thousand floating point operations per second, today's Xbox one that sitting in most of your living rooms probably can process six trillion flops. That's sixty million times more powerful than the original seventy ninety that helped put a human being on the moon. And at the same time that computing was, that was drastically changed. That this computing has drastically changed. So have the boundaries of where that computing sits and where it's been where it lives. At the time of the Apollo launch, the computing power was often a single machine. Then it moved to a single data center, and over time that grew to multiple data centers. Then with cloud, it extended all the way out to data centers that you didn't even own or have control of. But but computing now reaches far beyond any data center. This is also referred to as the edge. You hear a lot about that. The Apollo's, the Apollo's version of the Edge was the guidance system, a two megahertz computer that weighed seventy pounds embedded in the capsule. Today, today the edge is right here on my wrist. This apple watch weighs just a couple of ounces, and it's ten ten thousand times more powerful than that seventy ninety back in nineteen sixty nine But even more impactful than computing advances, combined with the pervasive availability of it, are the changes and who in what controls those that similar to social changes that have happened along the way. Shifting from mathematicians to computers, we're now facing the same type of changes with regards to operational control of our computing power. In its first forms. Operational control was your team, your team within your control? In some cases, a single person managed everything. But as complexity grows, our team's expanded, just like in the just like in the computing boundaries, system integrators and public cloud providers have become an extension of our team. But at the end of the day, it's still people that are still making all the decisions going forward with the progress of things like a I and software defined everything. It's quite likely that machines will be managing machines, and in many cases that's already happening today. But while the technology at our finger tips today is so impressive, the pace of changing complexity of the problems we aspire to solve our equally hard to comprehend and they are all intertwined with one another learning from each other, growing together faster and faster. We are tackling problems today on a global scale with unsinkable complexity beyond anyone beyond what any one single company or even one single country Khun solve alone. This is why open source is so important. This is why open source is so needed today in software. This is why open sources so needed today, even in the world, to solve other types of complex problems. And this is why open source has become the dominant development model which is driving the technology direction. Today is to bring two brother to bring together the best innovation from every corner of the planet. Toe fundamentally change how we solve problems. This approach and access the innovation is what has enabled open source To tackle The challenge is big challenges, like creating the hybrid cloud like building a truly open hybrid cloud. But even today it's really difficult to bridge the gap of the innovation. It's available in all in all of our fingertips by open source development, while providing the production level capabilities that are needed to really dip, ploy this in the enterprise and solve RIA world business problems. Red Hat has been committed to open source from the very, very beginning and bringing it to solve enterprise class problems for the last seventeen plus years. But when we built that model to bring open source to the enterprise, we absolutely knew we couldn't do it halfway tow harness the innovation. We had to fully embrace the model. We made a decision very early on. Give everything back and we live by that every single day. We didn't do crazy crazy things like you hear so many do out there. All this is open corps or everything below. The line is open and everything above the line is closed. We didn't do that, and we gave everything back Everything we learned in the process of becoming an enterprise class technology company. We gave it all of that back to the community to make better and better software. This is how it works. And we've seen the results of that. We've all seen the results of that and it could only have been possible within open source development model we've been building on the foundation of open source is most successful Project Lennox in the architecture of the future hybrid and bringing them to the Enterprise. This is what made Red Hat, the company that we are today and red hats journey. But we also had the set goals, and and many of them seemed insert insurmountable at the time, the first of which was making Lennox the Enterprise standard. And while this is so accepted today, let's take a look at what it took to get there. Our first launch into the Enterprise was rail two dot one. Yes, I know we two dot one, but we knew we couldn't release a one dato product. We knew that and and we didn't. But >> we didn't want to >> allow any reason why anyone of any customer anyone shouldn't should look past rail to solve their problems as an option. Back then, we had to fight every single flavor of Unix in every single account. But we were lucky to have a few initial partners and Big Eyes v partners that supported Rehl out of the gate. But while we had the determination, we knew we also had gaps in order to deliver on our on our priorities. In the early days of rail, I remember going to ask one of our engineers for a past rehl build because we were having a customer issue on it on an older release. And then I watched in horror as he rifled through his desk through a mess of CDs and magically came up and said, I found it here It is told me not to worry that the build this was he thinks this was the bill. This was the right one, and at that point I knew that despite the promise of Lennox, we had a lot of work ahead of us. The not only convinced the world that Lennox was secure, stable, an enterprise ready, but also to make that a reality. But we did. And today this is our reality. It's all of our reality. From the Enterprise Data Center standard to the fastest computers on the planet, Red Hat Enterprise, Lennox has continually risen to the challenge and has become the core foundation that many mission critical customers run and bet their business on. And an even bigger today Lennox is the foundation of which practically every single technology initiative is built upon. Lennox is not only standard toe build on today, it's the standard for innovation that builds around it. That's the innovation that's driving the future as well. We started our story with rail two dot one, and here we are today, seventeen years later, announcing rally as we did as we did last night. It's specifically designed for applications to run across the open hybrid. Clyde Cloud. Railed has become the best operating simp system for on premise all the way out to the cloud, providing that common operating model and workload foundation on which to build hybrid applications. Let's take it. Let's take a look at how far we've come and see this in action. >> Please welcome Red Hat Global director of developer experience, burst Sutter with Josh Boyer, Timothy Kramer, Lars Carl, it's Key and Brent Midwood. All right, we have some amazing things to show you. In just a few short moments, we actually have a lot of things to show you. And actually, Tim and Brandt will be with us momentarily. They're working out a few things in the back because we have a lot of this is gonna be a live demonstration, some incredible capabilities. Now you're going to see clear innovation inside the operating system where we worked incredibly hard to make it vast cities. You're free to manage many, many machines. I want you thinking about that as we go to this process. Now, also, keep in mind that this is the basis our core platform for everything we do here. Red hat. So it is an honor for me to be able to show it to you live on stage today. And so I recognize the many of you in the audience right now. Her hand's on systems administrators, systems, architect, citizens, engineers. And we know that you're under ever growing pressure to deliver needed infrastructure. Resource is ever faster, and that is a key element to what you're thinking about every day. Well, this has been a core theme, and our design decisions find red Odd Enterprise Lennox eight and intelligent operating system, which is making it fundamentally easier for you manage machines that scale. So hold what you're about to see next. Feels like a new superpower and and that redhead azure force multiplier. So first, let me introduce you to a large. He's totally my limits guru. >> I wouldn't call myself a girl, but I I guess you could say that I want to bring Lennox and light meant to more people. >> Okay, Well, let's let's dive in. And we're not about the clinic's eight. >> Sure. Let me go. And Morgan, >> wait a >> second. There's windows. >> Yeah, way Build the weft Consul into Really? That means that for the first time, you can log in from any device including your phone or this standard windows laptop. So you just go ahead and and to my Saturday lance credentials here. >> Okay, so now >> you're putting >> your limits password and over the web. >> Yeah, that might sound a bit scary at first, but of course, we're using the latest security tech by T. L s on dh csp on. Because that's the standard Lennox off site. You can use everything that you used to like a stage keys, OTP, tokens and stuff like this. >> Okay, so now I see the council right here. I love the dashboard overview of the system, but what else can you tell us about this council? >> Right? Like right here. You see the load of the system, some some of its properties. But you can also dive into logs everything that you're used to from the command line, right? Or lookit, services. This's all the services I've running, can start and stuff them and enable >> OK, I love that feature right there. So what about if I have to add a whole new application to this environment? >> Good that you're bringing that up. We build a new future into hell called application streams. Which the way for you to install different versions of your half stack that are supported I'LL show you with Youngmin a command line. But since Windows doesn't have a proper terminal, I'll just do it in the terminal that we built into the Web console Since the browser, I can even make this a bit bigger. Go to, for example, to see the application streams that we have for Poskus. Ijust do module list and I see you know we have ten and nine dot six Both supported tennis a default on defy enable ninety six Now the next time that I installed prescribes it will pull all their lady towards from them at six. >> Ok, so this is very cool. I see two verses of post Chris right here What tennis to default. That is fantastic and the application streams making that happen. But I'm really kind of curious, right? I loved using know js and Java. So what about multiple versions of those? >> Yeah, that's exactly the idea way. Want to keep up with the fast moving ecosystems off programming language? Isn't it a business? >> Okay, now, But I have another key question. I know some people were thinking it right now. What about Python? >> Yeah. In fact, in a minimum and still like this, python gives you command. Not fact. Just have to type it correctly. You can't just install which everyone you want two or three or whichever your application needs. >> Okay, Well, that is I've been burned on that one before. Okay, so no actual. Have a confession for all you guys. Right here. You guys keep this amongst yourselves. Don't let Paul No, I'm actually not a linnet systems administrator. I'm an application developer, an application architect, And I recently had to go figure out how to extend the file system. This is for real. And I'm going to the rat knowledge base and looking up things like, you know, PV create VD, extend resized to f s. And I have to admit, that's hard, >> right? I've opened the storage space for you right here, where you see an overview of your storage. And the council has made for people like you as well not only for people that I knew that when you two lunatics, right? It's if you're running, you're running some of the commands only, you know, some of the time you don't remember them. So, for example, I haven't felt twosome here. That's a little bit too small. Let me just throw it. It's like, you know, dragging this lighter. It calls all the command in the background for you. >> Oh, that is incredible. Is that simple? Just drag and drop. That is fantastic. Well, so I actually, you know, we'll have another question for you. It looks like now this linen systems administration is no longer a dark heart involving arcane commands typed into a black terminal. Like using when those funky ergonomic keyboards you know I'm talking about right? Do >> you know a lot of people, including me and people in the audience like that dark out right? And this is not taking any of that away. It's on additional tool to bring limits to more people. >> Okay, well, that is absolute fantastic. Thank you so much for that Large. And I really love him installing everything is so much easier, including a post gra seeker and, of course, the python that we saw right there. So now I want to change gears for a second because I actually have another situation that I'm always dealing with. And that is every time I want to build a new Lenox system, not only I don't want to have to install those commands again and again, it feels like I'm doing it over and over. So, Josh, how would I create a golden image? One VM image that can use and we have everything pre baked in? >> Yeah, absolutely. But >> we get that question all the time. So really includes image builder technology. Image builder technology is actually all of our hybrid cloud operating system image tools that we use to build our own images and rolled up in a nice, easy to integrate new system. So if I come here in the web console and I go to our image builder tab, it brings us to blueprints, right? Blueprints or what we used to actually control it goes into our golden image. Uh, and I heard you and Lars talking about post present python. So I went and started typing here. So it brings us to this page, but you could go to the selected components, and you can see here I've created a blueprint that has all the python and post press packages in it. Ah, and the interesting thing about this is it build on our existing kickstart technology. But you can use it to deploy that whatever cloud you want. And it's saved so that you don't actually have to know all the various incantations from Amazon toe azure to Google, whatever it's all baked in on. When you do this, you can actually see the dependencies that get brought in as well. Okay. Should we create one life? Yes, please. All right, cool. So if we go back to the blueprints page and we click create blueprint Let's, uh let's make a developer brute blueprint here. So we click great, and you can see here on the left hand side. I've got all of my content served up by Red Hat satellite. We have a lot of great stuff, and really, But we can go ahead and search. So we'LL look for post grows and you know, it's a developer image at the client for some local testing. Um, well, come in here and at the python bits. Probably the development package. We need a compiler if we're going to actually build anything. So look for GCC here and hey, what's your favorite editor? >> A Max, Of course, >> Max. All right. Hey, Lars, about you. I'm more of a person. You Maxim v I All right, Well, if you want to prevent a holy war in your system, you can actually use satellite to filter that out. But we're going to go ahead and Adam Ball, sweetie, I'm a fight on stage. So wait, just point and click. Let the graphical one. And then when we're all done, we just commit our changes, and our image is ready to build. >> Okay, So this VM image we just created right now from that blueprint this is now I can actually go out there and easily deploys of deploy this across multiple cloud providers. And as well as this on stage are where we have right now. >> Yeah, absolutely. We can to play on Amazon as your google any any infrastructure you're looking for so you can really hit your Clyburn hybrid cloud operating system images. >> Okay. All right, listen, we >> just go on, click, create image. Uh, we can select our different types here. I'm gonna go ahead and create a local VM because it's available image, and maybe they want to pass it around or whatever, and I just need a few moments for it to build. >> Okay? So while that's taking a few moments, I know there's another key question in the minds of the audience right now, and you're probably thinking I love what I see. What Right eye right hand Priceline say. But >> what does it >> take to upgrade from seven to eight? So large can you show us and walk us through an upgrade? >> Sure, this's my little Thomas Block that I set up. It's powered by what Chris and secrets over, but it's still running on seven six. So let's upgrade that jump over to my house fee on satellite on. You see all my relate machines here, including the one I showed you what Consul on before. And there is that one with my sun block and there's a couple others. Let me select those as well. This one on that one. Just go up here. Schedule remote job. And she was really great. And hit Submit. I made it so that it makes the booms national before. So if anything was wrong Kans throwback! >> Okay, okay, so now it's progressing. Here, >> it's progressing. Looks like it's running. Doing >> live upgrade on stage. Uh, >> seems like one is failing. What's going on here? Okay, we checked the tree of great Chuck. Oh, yeah, that's the one I was playing around with Butter fest backstage. What? Detective that and you know, it doesn't run the Afghan cause we don't support operating that. >> Okay, so what I'm hearing now? So the good news is, we were protected from possible failed upgrade there, So it sounds like these upgrades are perfectly safe. Aiken, basically, you know, schedule this during a maintenance window and still get some sleep. >> Totally. That's the idea. >> Okay, fantastic. All right. So it looks like upgrades are easy and perfectly safe. And I really love what you showed us there. It's good point. Click operation right from satellite. Ok, so Well, you know, we were checking out upgrades. I want to know Josh. How those v ems coming along. >> They went really well. So you were away for so long. I got a little bored and I took some liberties. >> What do you mean? >> Well, the image Bill And, you know, I decided I'm going to go ahead and deploy here to this Intel machine on stage Esso. I have that up and running in the web. Counsel. I built another one on the arm box, which is actually pretty fast, and that's up and running on this. Our machine on that went so well that I decided to spend up some an Amazon. So I've got a few instances here running an Amazon with the web console accessible there as well. On even more of our pre bill image is up and running an azure with the web console there. So the really cool thing about this bird is that all of these images were built with image builder in a single location, controlling all the content that you want in your golden images deployed across the hybrid cloud. >> Wow, that is fantastic. And you might think that so we actually have more to show you. So thank you so much for that large. And Josh, that is fantastic. Looks like provisioning bread. Enterprise Clinic Systems ate a redhead. Enterprise Enterprise. Rhetta Enterprise Lennox. Eight Systems is Asian ever before, but >> we have >> more to talk to you about. And there's one thing that many of the operations professionals in this room right now no, that provisioning of'em is easy, but it's really day two day three, it's down the road that those viens required day to day maintenance. As a matter of fact, several you folks right now in this audience to have to manage hundreds, if not thousands, of virtual machines I recently spoke to. Gentleman has to manage thirteen hundred servers. So how do you manage those machines? A great scale. So great that they have now joined us is that it looks like they worked things out. So now I'm curious, Tim. How will we manage hundreds, if not thousands, of computers? >> Welbourne, one human managing hundreds or even thousands of'em says, No problem, because we have Ansel automation. And by leveraging Ansel's integration into satellite, not only can we spin up those V em's really quickly, like Josh was just doing, but we can also make ongoing maintenance of them really simple. Come on up here. I'm going to show you here a satellite inventory and his red hat is publishing patches. Weaken with that danceable integration easily apply those patches across our entire fleet of machines. Okay, >> that is fantastic. So he's all the machines can get updated in one fell swoop. >> He sure can. And there's one thing that I want to bring your attention to today because it's brand new. And that's cloud that red hat dot com And here, a cloud that redhead dot com You can view and manage your entire inventory no matter where it sits. Of Redhead Enterprise Lennox like on Prem on stage. Private Cloud or Public Cloud. It's true Hybrid cloud management. >> OK, but one thing. One thing. I know that in the minds of the audience right now. And if you have to manage a large number servers this it comes up again and again. What happens when you have those critical vulnerabilities that next zero day CV could be tomorrow? >> Exactly. I've actually been waiting for a while patiently for you >> to get to the really good stuff. So >> there's one more thing that I wanted to let folks know about. Red Hat Enterprise. The >> next eight and some features that we have there. Oh, >> yeah? What is that? >> So, actually, one of the key design principles of relate is working with our customers over the last twenty years to integrate all the knowledge that we've gained and turn that into insights that we can use to keep our red hat Enterprise Lennox servers running securely, inefficiently. And so what we actually have here is a few things that we could take a look at show folks what that is. >> OK, so we basically have this new feature. We're going to show people right now. And so one thing I want to make sure it's absolutely included within the redhead enterprise in that state. >> Yes. Oh, that's Ah, that's an announcement that we're making this week is that this is a brand new feature that's integrated with Red Hat Enterprise clinics, and it's available to everybody that has a red hat enterprise like subscription. So >> I believe everyone in this room right now has a rail subscriptions, so it's available to all of them. >> Absolutely, absolutely. So let's take a quick look and try this out. So we actually have. Here is a list of about six hundred rules. They're configuration security and performance rules. And this is this list is growing every single day, so customers can actually opt in to the rules that are most that are most applicable to their enterprises. So what we're actually doing here is combining the experience and knowledge that we have with the data that our customers opt into sending us. So customers have opted in and are sending us more data every single night. Then they actually have in total over the last twenty years via any other mechanism. >> Now there's I see now there's some critical findings. That's what I was talking about. But it comes to CVS and things that nature. >> Yeah, I'm betting that those air probably some of the rail seven boxes that we haven't actually upgraded quite yet. So we get back to that. What? I'd really like to show everybody here because everybody has access to this is how easy it is to opt in and enable this feature for real. Okay, let's do that real quick, so I gotta hop back over to satellite here. This is the satellite that we saw before, and I'll grab one of the hosts and we can use the new Web console feature that's part of Railly, and via single sign on I could jump right from satellite over to the Web console. So it's really, really easy. And I'LL grab a terminal here and registering with insights is really, really easy. Is one command troops, and what's happening right now is the box is going to gather some data. It's going to send it up to the cloud, and within just a minute or two, we're gonna have some results that we can look at back on the Web interface. >> I love it so it's just a single command and you're ready to register this box right now. That is super easy. Well, that's fantastic, >> Brent. We started this whole series of demonstrations by telling the audience that Red Hat Enterprise Lennox eight was the easiest, most economical and smartest operating system on the planet, period. And well, I think it's cute how you can go ahead and captain on a single machine. I'm going to show you one more thing. This is Answerable Tower. You can use as a bell tower to managing govern your answerable playbook, usage across your entire organization and with this. What I could do is on every single VM that was spun up here today. Opt in and register insights with a single click of a button. >> Okay, I want to see that right now. I know everyone's waiting for it as well, But hey, you're VM is ready. Josh. Lars? >> Yeah. My clock is running a little late now. Yeah, insights is a really cool feature >> of rail. And I've got it in all my images already. All >> right, I'm doing it all right. And so as this playbook runs across the inventory, I can see the machines registering on cloud that redhead dot com ready to be managed. >> OK, so all those onstage PM's as well as the hybrid cloud VM should be popping in IRC Post Chris equals Well, fantastic. >> That's awesome. Thanks to him. Nothing better than a Red Hat Summit speaker in the first live demo going off script deal. Uh, let's go back and take a look at some of those critical issues affecting a few of our systems here. So you can see this is a particular deanna's mask issue. It's going to affect a couple of machines. We saw that in the overview, and I can actually go and get some more details about what this particular issue is. So if you take a look at the right side of the screen there, there's actually a critical likelihood an impact that's associated with this particular issue. And what that really translates to is that there's a high level of risk to our organization from this particular issue. But also there's a low risk of change. And so what that means is that it's really, really safe for us to go ahead and use answerable to mediate this so I can grab the machines will select those two and we're mediate with answerable. I can create a new playbook. It's our maintenance window, but we'LL do something along the lines of like stuff Tim broke and that'LL be our cause. We name it whatever we want. So we'Ll create that playbook and take a look at it, and it's actually going to give us some details about the machines. You know what, what type of reboots Efendi you're going to be needed and what we need here. So we'LL go ahead and execute the playbook and what you're going to see is the outputs goingto happen in real time. So this is happening from the cloud were affecting machines. No matter where they are, they could be on Prem. They could be in a hybrid cloud, a public cloud or in a private cloud. And these things are gonna be remediated very, very easily with answerable. So it's really, really awesome. Everybody here with a red hat. Enterprise licks Lennox subscription has access to this now, so I >> kind of want >> everybody to go try this like, we really need to get this thing going and try it out right now. But >> don't know, sent about the room just yet. You get stay here >> for okay, Mr. Excitability, I think after this keynote, come back to the red hat booth and there's an optimization section. You can come talk to our insights engineers. And even though it's really easy to get going on your own, they can help you out. Answer any questions you might have. So >> this is really the start of a new era with an intelligent operating system and beauty with intelligence you just saw right now what insights that troubles you. Fantastic. So we're enabling systems administrators to manage more red in private clinics, a greater scale than ever before. I know there's a lot more we could show you, but we're totally out of time at this point, and we kind of, you know, when a little bit sideways here moments. But we need to get off the stage. But there's one thing I want you guys to think about it. All right? Do come check out the in the booth. Like Tim just said also in our debs, Get hands on red and a prize winning state as well. But really, I want you to think about this one human and a multitude of servers. And if you remember that one thing asked you upfront. Do you feel like you get a new superpower and redhead? Is your force multiplier? All right, well, thank you so much. Josh and Lars, Tim and Brent. Thank you. And let's get Paul back on stage. >> I went brilliant. No, it's just as always, >> amazing. I mean, as you can tell from last night were really, really proud of relate in that coming out here at the summit. And what a great way to showcase it. Thanks so much to you. Birth. Thanks, Brent. Tim, Lars and Josh. Just thanks again. So you've just seen this team demonstrate how impactful rail Khun b on your data center. So hopefully hopefully many of you. If not all of you have experienced that as well. But it was super computers. We hear about that all the time, as I just told you a few minutes ago, Lennox isn't just the foundation for enterprise and cloud computing. It's also the foundation for the fastest super computers in the world. In our next guest is here to tell us a lot more about that. >> Please welcome Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. HPC solution Architect Robin Goldstone. >> Thank you so much, Robin. >> So welcome. Welcome to the summit. Welcome to Boston. And thank thank you so much for coming for joining us. Can you tell us a bit about the goals of Lawrence Livermore National Lab and how high high performance computing really works at this level? >> Sure. So Lawrence Livermore National >> Lab was established during the Cold War to address urgent national security needs by advancing the state of nuclear weapons, science and technology and high performance computing has always been one of our core capabilities. In fact, our very first supercomputer, ah Univac one was ordered by Edward Teller before our lab even opened back in nineteen fifty two. Our mission has evolved since then to cover a broad range of national security challenges. But first and foremost, our job is to ensure the safety, security and reliability of the nation's nuclear weapons stockpile. Oh, since the US no longer performs underground nuclear testing, our ability to certify the stockpile depends heavily on science based science space methods. We rely on H P C to simulate the behavior of complex weapons systems to ensure that they can function as expected, well beyond their intended life spans. That's actually great. >> So are you really are still running on that on that Univac? >> No, Actually, we we've moved on since then. So Sierra is Lawrence Livermore. Its latest and greatest supercomputer is currently the Seconds spastic supercomputer in the world and for the geeks in the audience, I think there's a few of them out there. We put up some of the specs of Syrah on the screen behind me, a couple of things worth highlighting our Sierra's peak performance and its power utilisation. So one hundred twenty five Pata flops of performance is equivalent to about twenty thousand of those Xbox one excess that you mentioned earlier and eleven point six megawatts of power required Operate Sierra is enough to power around eleven thousand homes. Syria is a very large and complex system, but underneath it all, it starts out as a collection of servers running Lin IX and more specifically, rail. >> So did Lawrence. Did Lawrence Livermore National Lab National Lab used Yisrael before >> Sierra? Oh, yeah, most definitely. So we've been running rail for a very long time on what I'll call our mid range HPC systems. So these clusters, built from commodity components, are sort of the bread and butter of our computer center. And running rail on these systems provides us with a continuity of operations and a common user environment across multiple generations of hardware. Also between Lawrence Livermore in our sister labs, Los Alamos and Sandia. Alongside these commodity clusters, though, we've always had one sort of world class supercomputer like Sierra. Historically, these systems have been built for a sort of exotic proprietary hardware running entirely closed source operating systems. Anytime something broke, which was often the Vander would be on the hook to fix it. And you know, >> that sounds >> like a good model, except that what we found overtime is most the issues that we have on these systems were either due to the extreme scale or the complexity of our workloads. Vendors seldom had a system anywhere near the size of ours, and we couldn't give them our classified codes. So their ability to reproduce our problem was was pretty limited. In some cases, they've even sent an engineer on site to try to reproduce our problems. But even then, sometimes we wouldn't get a fix for months or else they would just tell us they weren't going to fix the problem because we were the only ones having it. >> So for many of us, for many of us, the challenges is one of driving reasons for open source, you know, for even open source existing. How has how did Sierra change? Things are on open source for >> you. Sure. So when we developed our technical requirements for Sierra, we had an explicit requirement that we want to run an open source operating system and a strong preference for rail. At the time, IBM was working with red hat toe add support Terrell for their new little Indian power architecture. So it was really just natural for them to bid a red. A rail bay system for Sierra running Raylan Cyril allows us to leverage the model that's worked so well for us for all this time on our commodity clusters any packages that we build for X eighty six, we can now build those packages for power as well as our market texture using our internal build infrastructure. And while we have a formal support relationship with IBM, we can also tap our in house colonel developers to help debug complex problems are sys. Admin is Khun now work on any of our systems, including Sierra, without having toe pull out their cheat sheet of obscure proprietary commands. Our users get a consistent software environment across all our systems. And if the security vulnerability comes out, we don't have to chase around getting fixes from Multan slo es fenders. >> You know, you've been able, you've been able to extend your foundation from all the way from X eighty six all all the way to the extract excess Excuse scale supercomputing. We talk about giving customers all we talked about it all the time. A standard operational foundation to build upon. This isn't This isn't exactly what we've envisioned. So So what's next for you >> guys? Right. So what's next? So Sierra's just now going into production. But even so, we're already working on the contract for our next supercomputer called El Capitan. That's scheduled to be delivered the Lawrence Livermore in the twenty twenty two twenty timeframe. El Capitan is expected to be about ten times the performance of Sierra. I can't share any more details about that system right now, but we are hoping that we're going to be able to continue to build on a solid foundation. That relish provided us for well over a decade. >> Well, thank you so much for your support of realm over the years, Robin. And And thank you so much for coming and tell us about it today. And we can't wait to hear more about El Capitan. Thank you. Thank you very much. So now you know why we're so proud of realm. And while you saw confetti cannons and T shirt cannons last night, um, so you know, as as burned the team talked about the demo rail is the force multiplier for servers. We've made Lennox one of the most powerful platforms in the history of platforms. But just as Lennox has become a viable platform with access for everyone, and rail has become viable, more viable every day in the enterprise open source projects began to flourish around the operating system. And we needed to bring those projects to our enterprise customers in the form of products with the same trust models as we did with Ralph seeing the incredible progress of software development occurring around Lennox. Let's let's lead us to the next goal that we said tow, tow ourselves. That goal was to make hybrid cloud the default enterprise for the architecture. How many? How many of you out here in the audience or are Cesar are? HC sees how many out there a lot. A lot. You are the people that our building the next generation of computing the hybrid cloud, you know, again with like just like our goals around Lennox. This goals might seem a little daunting in the beginning, but as a community we've proved it time and time again. We are unstoppable. Let's talk a bit about what got us to the point we're at right right now and in the work that, as always, we still have in front of us. We've been on a decade long mission on this. Believe it or not, this mission was to build the capabilities needed around the Lenox operating system to really build and make the hybrid cloud. When we saw well, first taking hold in the enterprise, we knew that was just taking the first step. Because for a platform to really succeed, you need applications running on it. And to get those applications on your platform, you have to enable developers with the tools and run times for them to build, to build upon. Over the years, we've closed a few, if not a lot of those gaps, starting with the acquisition of J. Boss many years ago, all the way to the new Cuban Eddie's native code ready workspaces we launched just a few months back. We realized very early on that building a developer friendly platform was critical to the success of Lennox and open source in the enterprise. Shortly after this, the public cloud stormed onto the scene while our first focus as a company was done on premise in customer data centers, the public cloud was really beginning to take hold. Rehl very quickly became the standard across public clouds, just as it was in the enterprise, giving customers that common operating platform to build their applications upon ensuring that those applications could move between locations without ever having to change their code or operating model. With this new model of the data center spread across so many multiple environments, management had to be completely re sought and re architected. And given the fact that environments spanned multiple locations, management, real solid management became even more important. Customers deploying in hybrid architectures had to understand where their applications were running in how they were running, regardless of which infrastructure provider they they were running on. We invested over the years with management right alongside the platform, from satellite in the early days to cloud forms to cloud forms, insights and now answerable. We focused on having management to support the platform wherever it lives. Next came data, which is very tightly linked toe applications. Enterprise class applications tend to create tons of data and to have a common operating platform foyer applications. You need a storage solutions. That's Justus, flexible as that platform able to run on premise. Just a CZ. Well, as in the cloud, even across multiple clouds. This let us tow acquisitions like bluster, SEF perma bitch in Nubia, complimenting our Pratt platform with red hat storage for us, even though this sounds very condensed, this was a decade's worth of investment, all in preparation for building the hybrid cloud. Expanding the portfolio to cover the areas that a customer would depend on to deploy riel hybrid cloud architectures, finding any finding an amplifying the right open source project and technologies, or filling the gaps with some of these acquisitions. When that necessarily wasn't available by twenty fourteen, our foundation had expanded, but one big challenge remained workload portability. Virtual machine formats were fragmented across the various deployments and higher level framework such as Java e still very much depended on a significant amount of operating system configuration and then containers happened containers, despite having a very long being in existence for a very long time. As a technology exploded on the scene in twenty fourteen, Cooper Netease followed shortly after in twenty fifteen, allowing containers to span multiple locations and in one fell swoop containers became the killer technology to really enable the hybrid cloud. And here we are. Hybrid is really the on ly practical reality in way for customers and a red hat. We've been investing in all aspects of this over the last eight plus years to make our customers and partners successful in this model. We've worked with you both our customers and our partners building critical realm in open shift deployments. We've been constantly learning about what has caused problems and what has worked well in many cases. And while we've and while we've amassed a pretty big amount of expertise to solve most any challenge in in any area that stack, it takes more than just our own learning's to build the next generation platform. Today we're also introducing open shit for which is the culmination of those learnings. This is the next generation of the application platform. This is truly a platform that has been built with our customers and not simply just with our customers in mind. This is something that could only be possible in an open source development model and just like relish the force multiplier for servers. Open shift is the force multiplier for data centers across the hybrid cloud, allowing customers to build thousands of containers and operate them its scale. And we've also announced open shift, and we've also announced azure open shift. Last night. Satya on this stage talked about that in depth. This is all about extending our goals of a common operating platform enabling applications across the hybrid cloud, regardless of whether you run it yourself or just consume it as a service. And with this flagship release, we are also introducing operators, which is the central, which is the central feature here. We talked about this work last year with the operator framework, and today we're not going to just show you today. We're not going to just show you open shift for we're going to show you operators running at scale operators that will do updates and patches for you, letting you focus more of your time and running your infrastructure and running running your business. We want to make all this easier and intuitive. So let's have a quick look at how we're doing. Just that >> painting. I know all of you have heard we're talking to pretend to new >> customers about the travel out. So new plan. Just open it up as a service been launched by this summer. Look, I know this is a big quest for not very big team. I'm open to any and all ideas. >> Please welcome back to the stage. Red Hat Global director of developer Experience burst Sutter with Jessica Forrester and Daniel McPherson. All right, we're ready to do some more now. Now. Earlier we showed you read Enterprise Clinic St running on lots of different hardware like this hardware you see right now And we're also running across multiple cloud providers. But now we're going to move to another world of Lennox Containers. This is where you see open shift four on how you can manage large clusters of applications from eggs limits containers across the hybrid cloud. We're going to see this is where suffer operators fundamentally empower human operators and especially make ups and Deb work efficiently, more efficiently and effectively there together than ever before. Rights. We have to focus on the stage right now. They're represent ops in death, and we're gonna go see how they reeled in application together. Okay, so let me introduce you to Dan. Dan is totally representing all our ops folks in the audience here today, and he's telling my ops, comfort person Let's go to call him Mr Ops. So Dan, >> thanks for with open before, we had a much easier time setting up in maintaining our clusters. In large part, that's because open shit for has extended management of the clusters down to the infrastructure, the diversity kinds of parent. When you take >> a look at the open ship console, >> you can now see the machines that make up the cluster where machine represents the infrastructure. Underneath that Cooper, Eddie's node open shit for now handles provisioning Andy provisioning of those machines. From there, you could dig into it open ship node and see how it's configured and monitor how it's behaving. So >> I'm curious, >> though it does this work on bare metal infrastructure as well as virtualized infrastructure. >> Yeah, that's right. Burn So Pa Journal nodes, no eternal machines and open shit for can now manage it all. Something else we found extremely useful about open ship for is that it now has the ability to update itself. We can see this cluster hasn't update available and at the press of a button. Upgrades are responsible for updating. The entire platform includes the nodes, the control plane and even the operating system and real core arrests. All of this is possible because the infrastructure components and their configuration is now controlled by technology called operators. Thes software operators are responsible for aligning the cluster to a desired state. And all of this makes operational management of unopened ship cluster much simpler than ever before. All right, I >> love the fact that all that's been on one console Now you can see the full stack right all way down to the bare metal right there in that one console. Fantastic. So I wanted to scare us for a moment, though. And now let's talk to Deva, right? So Jessica here represents our all our developers in the room as my facts. He manages a large team of developers here Red hat. But more importantly, she represents our vice president development and has a large team that she has to worry about on a regular basis of Jessica. What can you show us? We'LL burn My team has hundreds of developers and were constantly under pressure to deliver value to our business. And frankly, we can't really wait for Dan and his ops team to provisioned the infrastructure and the services that we need to do our job. So we've chosen open shift as our platform to run our applications on. But until recently, we really struggled to find a reliable source of Cooper Netease Technologies that have the operational characteristics that Dan's going to actually let us install through the cluster. But now, with operator, How bio, we're really seeing the V ecosystem be unlocked. And the technology's there. Things that my team needs, its databases and message cues tracing and monitoring. And these operators are actually responsible for complex applications like Prometheus here. Okay, they're written in a variety of languages, danceable, but that is awesome. So I do see a number of options there already, and preaches is a great example. But >> how do you >> know that one? These operators really is mature enough and robust enough for Dan and the outside of the house. Wilbert, Here we have the operator maturity model, and this is going to tell me and my team whether this particular operator is going to do a basic install if it's going to upgrade that application over time through different versions or all the way out to full auto pilot, where it's automatically scaling and tuning the application based on the current environment. And it's very cool. So coming over toothy open shift Consul, now we can actually see Dan has made the sequel server operator available to me and my team. That's the database that we're using. A sequel server. That's a great example. So cynics over running here in the cluster? But this is a great example for a developer. What if I want to create a new secret server instance? Sure, we're so it's as easy as provisioning any other service from the developer catalog. We come in and I can type for sequel server on what this is actually creating is, ah, native resource called Sequel Server, and you can think of that like a promise that a sequel server will get created. The operator is going to see that resource, install the application and then manage it over its life cycle, KAL, and from this install it operators view, I can see the operators running in my project and which resource is its managing Okay, but I'm >> kind of missing >> something here. I see this custom resource here, the sequel server. But where the community's resource is like pods. Yeah, I think it's cool that we get this native resource now called Sequel Server. But if I need to, I can still come in and see the native communities. Resource is like your staple set in service here. Okay, that is fantastic. Now, we did say earlier on, though, like many of our customers in the audience right now, you have a large team of engineers. Lost a large team of developers you gotta handle. You gotta have more than one secret server, right? We do one for every team as we're developing, and we use a lot of other technologies running on open shift as well, including Tomcat and our Jenkins pipelines and our dough js app that is gonna actually talk to that sequel server database. Okay, so this point we can kind of provisions, Some of these? Yes. Oh, since all of this is self service for me and my team's, I'm actually gonna go and create one of all of those things I just said on all of our projects, right Now, if you just give me a minute, Okay? Well, right. So basically, you're going to knock down No Jazz Jenkins sequel server. All right, now, that's like hundreds of bits of application level infrastructure right now. Live. So, Dan, are you not terrified? Well, I >> guess I should have done a little bit better >> job of managing guests this quota and historically just can. I might have had some conflict here because creating all these new applications would admit my team now had a massive back like tickets to work on. But now, because of software operators, my human operators were able to run our infrastructure at scale. So since I'm long into the cluster here as the cluster admin, I get this view of pods across all projects. And so I get an idea of what's happening across the entire cluster. And so I could see now we have four hundred ninety four pods already running, and there's a few more still starting up. And if I scroll to the list, we can see the different workloads Jessica just mentioned of Tomcats. And no Gs is And Jenkins is and and Siegel servers down here too, you know, I see continues >> creating and you have, like, close to five hundred pods running >> there. So, yeah, filters list down by secret server, so we could just see. Okay, But >> aren't you not >> running going around a cluster capacity at some point? >> Actually, yeah, we we definitely have a limited capacity in this cluster. And so, luckily, though, we already set up auto scale er's And so because the additional workload was launching, we see now those outer scholars have kicked in and some new machines are being created that don't yet have noticed. I'm because they're still starting up. And so there's another good view of this as well, so you can see machine sets. We have one machine set per availability zone, and you could see the each one is now scaling from ten to twelve machines. And the way they all those killers working is for each availability zone, they will. If capacities needed, they will add additional machines to that availability zone and then later effect fast. He's no longer needed. It will automatically take those machines away. >> That is incredible. So right now we're auto scaling across multiple available zones based on load. Okay, so looks like capacity planning and automation is fully, you know, handle this point. But I >> do have >> another question for year logged in. Is the cluster admin right now into the console? Can you show us your view of >> operator suffer operators? Actually, there's a couple of unique views here for operators, for Cluster admits. The first of those is operator Hub. This is where a cluster admin gets the ability to curate the experience of what operators are available to users of the cluster. And so obviously we already have the secret server operator installed, which which we've been using. The other unique view is operator management. This gives a cluster I've been the ability to maintain the operators they've already installed. And so if we dig in and see the secret server operator, well, see, we haven't set up for manual approval. And what that means is if a new update comes in for a single server, then a cluster and we would have the ability to approve or disapprove with that update before installs into the cluster, we'LL actually and there isn't upgrade that's available. Uh, I should probably wait to install this, though we're in the middle of scaling out this cluster. And I really don't want to disturb Jessica's application. Workflow. >> Yeah, so, actually, Dan, it's fine. My app is already up. It's running. Let me show it to you over here. So this is our products application that's talking to that sequel server instance. And for debugging purposes, we can see which version of sequel server we're currently talking to. Its two point two right now. And then which pod? Since this is a cluster, there's more than one secret server pod we could be connected to. Okay, I could see right there the bounder screeners they know to point to. That's the version we have right now. But, you know, >> this is kind of >> point of software operators at this point. So, you know, everyone in this room, you know, wants to see you hit that upgrade button. Let's do it. Live here on stage. Right, then. All >> right. All right. I could see where this is going. So whenever you updated operator, it's just like any other resource on communities. And so the first thing that happens is the operator pot itself gets updated so we actually see a new version of the operator is currently being created now, and what's that gets created, the overseer will be terminated. And that point, the new, softer operator will notice. It's now responsible for managing lots of existing Siegel servers already in the environment. And so it's then going Teo update each of those sickle servers to match to the new version of the single server operator and so we could see it's running. And so if we switch now to the all projects view and we filter that list down by sequel server, then we should be able to see us. So lots of these sickle servers are now being created and the old ones are being terminated. So is the rolling update across the cluster? Exactly a So the secret server operator Deploy single server and an H A configuration. And it's on ly updates a single instance of secret server at a time, which means single server always left in nature configuration, and Jessica doesn't really have to worry about downtime with their applications. >> Yeah, that's awesome dance. So glad the team doesn't have to worry about >> that anymore and just got I think enough of these might have run by Now, if you try your app again might be updated. >> Let's see Jessica's application up here. All right. On laptop three. >> Here we go. >> Fantastic. And yet look, we're We're into two before we're onto three. Now we're on to victory. Excellent on. >> You know, I actually works so well. I don't even see a reason for us to leave this on manual approval. So I'm going to switch this automatic approval. And then in the future, if a new single server comes in, then we don't have to do anything, and it'll be all automatically updated on the cluster. >> That is absolutely fantastic. And so I was glad you guys got a chance to see that rolling update across the cluster. That is so cool. The Secret Service database being automated and fully updated. That is fantastic. Alright, so I can see how a software operator doesn't able. You don't manage hundreds if not thousands of applications. I know a lot of folks or interest in the back in infrastructure. Could you give us an example of the infrastructure >> behind this console? Yeah, absolutely. So we all know that open shift is designed that run in lots of different environments. But our teams think that as your redhead over, Schiff provides one of the best experiences by deeply integrating the open chief Resource is into the azure console, and it's even integrated into the azure command line toll and the easy open ship man. And, as was announced yesterday, it's now available for everyone to try out. And there's actually one more thing we wanted to show Everyone related to open shit, for this is all so new with a penchant for which is we now have multi cluster management. This gives you the ability to keep track of all your open shift environments, regardless of where they're running as well as you can create new clusters from here. And I'll dig into the azure cluster that we were just taking a look at. >> Okay, but is this user and face something have to install them one of my existing clusters? >> No, actually, this is the host of service that's provided by Red hat is part of cloud that redhead that calm and so all you have to do is log in with your red hair credentials to get access. >> That is incredible. So one console, one user experience to see across the entire hybrid cloud we saw earlier with Red update. Right and red embers. Thank Satan. Now we see it for multi cluster management. But home shift so you can fundamentally see. Now the suffer operators do finally change the game when it comes to making human operators vastly more productive and, more importantly, making Devon ops work more efficiently together than ever before. So we saw the rich ice vehicle system of those software operators. We can manage them across the Khyber Cloud with any, um, shift instance. And more importantly, I want to say Dan and Jessica for helping us with this demonstration. Okay, fantastic stuff, guys. Thank you so much. Let's get Paul back out here >> once again. Thanks >> so much to burn his team. Jessica and Dan. So you've just seen how open shift operators can help you manage hundreds, even thousands of applications. Install, upgrade, remove nodes, control everything about your application environment, virtual physical, all the way out to the cloud making, making things happen when the business demands it even at scale, because that's where it's going to get. Our next guest has lots of experience with demand at scale. and they're using open source container management to do it. Their work, their their their work building a successful cloud, First platform and there, the twenty nineteen Innovation Award winner. >> Please welcome twenty nineteen Innovation Award winner. Cole's senior vice president of technology, Rich Hodak. >> How you doing? Thanks. >> Thanks so much for coming out. We really appreciate it. So I guess you guys set some big goals, too. So can you baby tell us about the bold goal? Helped you personally help set for Cole's. And what inspired you to take that on? Yes. So it was twenty seventeen and life was pretty good. I had no gray hair and our business was, well, our tech was working well, and but we knew we'd have to do better into the future if we wanted to compete. Retails being disrupted. Our customers are asking for new experiences, So we set out on a goal to become an open hybrid cloud platform, and we chose Red had to partner with us on a lot of that. We set off on a three year journey. We're currently in Year two, and so far all KP eyes are on track, so it's been a great journey thus far. That's awesome. That's awesome. So So you Obviously, Obviously you think open source is the way to do cloud computing. So way absolutely agree with you on that point. So So what? What is it that's convinced you even more along? Yeah, So I think first and foremost wait, do we have a lot of traditional IAS fees? But we found that the open source partners actually are outpacing them with innovation. So I think that's where it starts for us. Um, secondly, we think there's maybe some financial upside to going more open source. We think we can maybe take some cost out unwind from these big fellas were in and thirdly, a CZ. We go to universities. We started hearing. Is we interviewed? Hey, what is Cole's doing with open source and way? Wanted to use that as a lever to help recruit talent. So I'm kind of excited, you know, we partner with Red Hat on open shift in in Rail and Gloucester and active M Q and answerable and lots of things. But we've also now launched our first open source projects. So it's really great to see this journey. We've been on. That's awesome, Rich. So you're in. You're in a high touch beta with with open shift for So what? What features and components or capabilities are you most excited about and looking forward to what? The launch and you know, and what? You know what? What are the something maybe some new goals that you might be able to accomplish with with the new features. And yeah, So I will tell you we're off to a great start with open shift. We've been on the platform for over a year now. We want an innovation award. We have this great team of engineers out here that have done some outstanding work. But certainly there's room to continue to mature that platform. It calls, and we're excited about open shift, for I think there's probably three things that were really looking forward to. One is we're looking forward to, ah, better upgrade process. And I think we saw, you know, some of that in the last demo. So upgrades have been kind of painful up until now. So we think that that that will help us. Um, number two, A lot of our open shift workloads today or the workloads. We run an open shifts are the stateless apse. Right? And we're really looking forward to moving more of our state full lapse into the platform. And then thirdly, I think that we've done a great job of automating a lot of the day. One stuff, you know, the provisioning of, of things. There's great opportunity o out there to do mohr automation for day two things. So to integrate mohr with our messaging systems in our database systems and so forth. So we, uh we're excited. Teo, get on board with the version for wear too. So, you know, I hope you, Khun, we can help you get to the next goals and we're going to continue to do that. Thank you. Thank you so much rich, you know, all the way from from rail toe open shift. It's really exciting for us, frankly, to see our products helping you solve World War were problems. What's you know what? Which is. Really? Why way do this and and getting into both of our goals. So thank you. Thank you very much. And thanks for your support. We really appreciate it. Thanks. It has all been amazing so far and we're not done. A critical part of being successful in the hybrid cloud is being successful in your data center with your own infrastructure. We've been helping our customers do that in these environments. For almost twenty years now, we've been running the most complex work loads in the world. But you know, while the public cloud has opened up tremendous possibilities, it also brings in another type of another layer of infrastructure complexity. So what's our next goal? Extend your extend your data center all the way to the edge while being as effective as you have been over the last twenty twenty years, when it's all at your own fingertips. First from a practical sense, Enterprises air going to have to have their own data centers in their own environment for a very long time. But there are advantages of being able to manage your own infrastructure that expand even beyond the public cloud all the way out to the edge. In fact, we talked about that very early on how technology advances in computer networking is storage are changing the physical boundaries of the data center every single day. The need, the need to process data at the source is becoming more and more critical. New use cases Air coming up every day. Self driving cars need to make the decisions on the fly. In the car factory processes are using a I need to adapt in real time. The factory floor has become the new edge of the data center, working with things like video analysis of a of A car's paint job as it comes off the line, where a massive amount of data is on ly needed for seconds in order to make critical decisions in real time. If we had to wait for the video to go up to the cloud and back, it would be too late. The damage would have already been done. The enterprise is being stretched to be able to process on site, whether it's in a car, a factory, a store or in eight or nine PM, usually involving massive amounts of data that just can't easily be moved. Just like these use cases couldn't be solved in private cloud alone because of things like blatant see on data movement, toe address, real time and requirements. They also can't be solved in public cloud alone. This is why open hybrid is really the model that's needed in the only model forward. So how do you address this class of workload that requires all of the above running at the edge? With the latest technology all its scale, let me give you a bit of a preview of what we're working on. We are taking our open hybrid cloud technologies to the edge, Integrated with integrated with Aro AM Hardware Partners. This is a preview of a solution that will contain red had open shift self storage in K V M virtual ization with Red Hat Enterprise Lennox at the core, all running on pre configured hardware. The first hardware out of the out of the gate will be with our long time. Oh, am partner Del Technologies. So let's bring back burn the team to see what's right around the corner. >> Please welcome back to the stage. Red Hat. Global director of developer Experience burst Sutter with Kareema Sharma. Okay, We just how was your Foreign operators have redefined the capabilities and usability of the open hybrid cloud, and now we're going to show you a few more things. Okay, so just be ready for that. But I know many of our customers in this audience right now, as well as the customers who aren't even here today. You're running tens of thousands of applications on open chef clusters. We know that disappearing right now, but we also know that >> you're not >> actually in the business of running terminators clusters. You're in the business of oil and gas from the business retail. You're in a business transportation, you're in some other business and you don't really want to manage those things at all. We also know though you have lo latest requirements like Polish is talking about. And you also dated gravity concerns where you >> need to keep >> that on your premises. So what you're about to see right now in this demonstration is where we've taken open ship for and made a bare metal cluster right here on this stage. This is a fully automated platform. There is no underlying hyper visor below this platform. It's open ship running on bare metal. And this is your crew vanities. Native infrastructure, where we brought together via mes containers networking and storage with me right now is green mush arma. She's one of her engineering leaders responsible for infrastructure technologies. Please welcome to the stage, Karima. >> Thank you. My pleasure to be here, whether it had summit. So let's start a cloud. Rid her dot com and here we can see the classroom Dannon Jessica working on just a few moments ago From here we have a bird's eye view ofthe all of our open ship plasters across the hybrid cloud from multiple cloud providers to on premises and noticed the spare medal last year. Well, that's the one that my team built right here on this stage. So let's go ahead and open the admin console for that last year. Now, in this demo, we'LL take a look at three things. A multi plaster inventory for the open Harbor cloud at cloud redhead dot com. Second open shift container storage, providing convert storage for virtual machines and containers and the same functionality for cloud vert and bare metal. And third, everything we see here is scuba unit is native, so by plugging directly into communities, orchestration begin common storage. Let working on monitoring facilities now. Last year, we saw how continue native actualization and Q Bert allow you to run virtual machines on Cabinet is an open shift, allowing for a single converge platform to manage both containers and virtual machines. So here I have this dark net project now from last year behead of induced virtual machine running it S P darknet application, and we had started to modernize and continue. Arise it by moving. Parts of the application from the windows began to the next containers. So let's take a look at it here. I have it again. >> Oh, large shirt, you windows. Earlier on, I was playing this game back stage, so it's just playing a little solitaire. Sorry about that. >> So we don't really have time for that right now. Birds. But as I was saying, Over here, I have Visions Studio Now the window's virtual machine is just another container and open shift and the i d be service for the virtual machine. It's just another service in open shift open shifts. Running both containers and virtual machines together opens a whole new world of possibilities. But why stop there? So this here be broadened to come in. It is native infrastructure as our vision to redefine the operation's off on premises infrastructure, and this applies to all matters of workloads. Using open shift on metal running all the way from the data center to the edge. No by your desk, right to main benefits. Want to help reduce the operation casts And second, to help bring advance good when it is orchestration concept to your infrastructure. So next, let's take a look at storage. So open shift container storage is software defined storage, providing the same functionality for both the public and the private lads. By leveraging the operator framework, open shift container storage automatically detects the available hardware configuration to utilize the discs in the most optimal vein. So then adding my note, you don't have to think about how to balance the storage. Storage is just another service running an open shift. >> And I really love this dashboard quite honestly, because I love seeing all the storage right here. So I'm kind of curious, though. Karima. What kind of storage would you What, What kind of applications would you use with the storage? >> Yeah, so this is the persistent storage. To be used by a database is your files and any data from applications such as a Magic Africa. Now the A Patrick after operator uses school, been at this for scheduling and high availability, and it uses open shift containers. Shortest. Restore the messages now Here are on premises. System is running a caf co workload streaming sensor data on DH. We want toe sort it and act on it locally, right In a minute. A place where maybe we need low latency or maybe in a data lake like situation. So we don't want to send the starter to the cloud. Instead, we want to act on it locally, right? Let's look at the griffon a dashboard and see how our system is doing so with the incoming message rate of about four hundred messages for second, the system seems to be performing well, right? I want to emphasize this is a fully integrated system. We're doing the testing An optimization sze so that the system can Artoo tune itself based on the applications. >> Okay, I love the automated operations. Now I am a curious because I know other folks in the audience want to know this too. What? Can you tell us more about how there's truly integrated communities can give us an example of that? >> Yes. Again, You know, I want to emphasize everything here is managed poorly by communities on open shift. Right. So you can really use the latest coolest to manage them. All right. Next, let's take a look at how easy it is to use K native with azure functions to script alive Reaction to a live migration event. >> Okay, Native is a great example. If actually were part of my breakout session yesterday, you saw me demonstrate came native. And actually, if you want to get hands on with it tonight, you can come to our guru night at five PM and actually get hands on like a native. So I really have enjoyed using K. Dated myself as a software developer. And but I am curious about the azure functions component. >> Yeah, so as your functions is a function is a service engine developed by Microsoft fully open source, and it runs on top of communities. So it works really well with our on premises open shift here. Right now, I have a simple azure function that I already have here and this azure function, you know, Let's see if this will send out a tweet every time we live My greater Windows virtual machine. Right. So I have it integrated with open shift on DH. Let's move a note to maintenance to see what happens. So >> basically has that via moves. We're going to see the event triggered. They trigger the function. >> Yeah, important point I want to make again here. Windows virtue in machines are equal citizens inside of open shift. We're investing heavily in automation through the use of the operator framework and also providing integration with the hardware. Right, So next, Now let's move that note to maintain it. >> But let's be very clear here. I wanna make sure you understand one thing, and that is there is no underlying virtual ization software here. This is open ship running on bear. Meddle with these bare metal host. >> That is absolutely right. The system can automatically discover the bare metal hosts. All right, so here, let's move this note to maintenance. So I start them Internets now. But what will happen at this point is storage will heal itself, and communities will bring back the same level of service for the CAFTA application by launching a part on another note and the virtual machine belive my great right and this will create communities events. So we can see. You know, the events in the event stream changes have started to happen. And as a result of this migration, the key native function will send out a tweet to confirm that could win. It is native infrastructure has indeed done the migration for the live Ian. Right? >> See the events rolling through right there? >> Yeah. All right. And if we go to Twitter? >> All right, we got tweets. Fantastic. >> And here we can see the source Nord report. Migration has succeeded. It's a pretty cool stuff right here. No. So we want to bring you a cloud like experience, but this means is we're making operational ease a fuse as a top goal. We're investing heavily in encapsulating management knowledge and working to pre certify hardware configuration in working with their partners such as Dell, and they're dead already. Note program so that we can provide you guidance on specific benchmarks for specific work loads on our auto tuning system. >> All right, well, this is tow. I know right now, you're right thing, and I want to jump on the stage and check out the spare metal cluster. But you should not right. Wait After the keynote didn't. Come on, check it out. But also, I want you to go out there and think about visiting our partner Del and their booth where they have one. These clusters also. Okay, So this is where vmc networking and containers the storage all come together And a Kurban in his native infrastructure. You've seen right here on this stage, but an agreement. You have a bit more. >> Yes. So this is literally the cloud coming down from the heavens to us. >> Okay? Right here, Right now. >> Right here, right now. So, to close the loop, you can have your plaster connected to cloud redhead dot com for our insights inside reliability engineering services so that we can proactively provide you with the guidance through automated analyses of telemetry in logs and help flag a problem even before you notice you have it Beat software, hardware, performance, our security. And one more thing. I want to congratulate the engineers behind the school technology. >> Absolutely. There's a lot of engineers here that worked on this cluster and worked on the stack. Absolutely. Thank you. Really awesome stuff. And again do go check out our partner Dale. They're just out that door I can see them from here. They have one. These clusters get a chance to talk to them about how to run your open shift for on a bare metal cluster as well. Right, Kareema, Thank you so much. That was totally awesome. We're at a time, and we got to turn this back over to Paul. >> Thank you. Right. >> Okay. Okay. Thanks >> again. Burned, Kareema. Awesome. You know, So even with all the exciting capabilities that you're seeing, I want to take a moment to go back to the to the first platform tenant that we learned with rail, that the platform has to be developer friendly. Our next guest knows something about connecting a technology like open shift to their developers and part of their company. Wide transformation and their ability to shift the business that helped them helped them make take advantage of the innovation. Their Innovation award winner this year. Please, Let's welcome Ed to the stage. >> Please welcome. Twenty nineteen. Innovation Award winner. BP Vice President, Digital transformation. Ed Alford. >> Thanks, Ed. How your fake Good. So was full. Get right into it. What we go you guys trying to accomplish at BP and and How is the goal really important in mandatory within your organization? Support on everyone else were global energy >> business, with operations and over seventy countries. Andi. We've embraced what we call the jewel challenge, which is increasing the mind for energy that we have as individuals in the world. But we need to produce the energy with fuel emissions. It's part of that. One of our strategic priorities that we >> have is to modernize the whole group on. That means simplifying our processes and enhancing >> productivity through digital solutions. So we're using chlo based technologies >> on, more importantly, open source technologies to clear a community and say, the whole group that collaborates effectively and efficiently and uses our data and expertise to embrace the jewel challenge and actually try and help solve that problem. That's great. So So how did these heart of these new ways of working benefit your team and really the entire organ, maybe even the company as a whole? So we've been given the Innovation Award for Digital conveyor both in the way it was created and also in water is delivering a couple of guys in the audience poll costal and brewskies as he they they're in the team. Their teams developed that convey here, using our jail and Dev ops and some things. We talk about this stuff a lot, but actually the they did it in a truly our jail and develops we, um that enabled them to experiment and walking with different ways. And highlight in the skill set is that we, as a group required in order to transform using these approaches, we can no move things from ideation to scale and weeks and days sometimes rather than months. Andi, I think that if we can take what they've done on DH, use more open source technology, we contain that technology and apply across the whole group to tackle this Jill challenge. And I think that we use technologists and it's really cool. I think that we can no use technology and open source technology to solve some of these big challenges that we have and actually just preserve the planet in a better way. So So what's the next step for you guys at BP? So moving forward, we we are embracing ourselves, bracing a clothed, forced organization. We need to continue to live to deliver on our strategy, build >> over the technology across the entire group to address the jewel >> challenge and continue to make some of these bold changes and actually get into and really use. Our technology is, I said, too addresses you'LL challenge and make the future of our planet a better place for ourselves and our children and our children's children. That's that's a big goal. But thank you so much, Ed. Thanks for your support. And thanks for coming today. Thank you very much. Thank you. Now comes the part that, frankly, I think his best part of the best part of this presentation We're going to meet the type of person that makes all of these things a reality. This tip this type of person typically works for one of our customers or with one of with one of our customers as a partner to help them make the kinds of bold goals like you've heard about today and the ones you'll hear about Maura the way more in the >> week. I think the thing I like most about it is you feel that reward Just helping people I mean and helping people with stuff you enjoy right with computers. My dad was the math and science teacher at the local high school. And so in the early eighties, that kind of met here, the default person. So he's always bringing in a computer stuff, and I started a pretty young age. What Jason's been able to do here is Mohr evangelize a lot of the technologies between different teams. I think a lot of it comes from the training and his certifications that he's got. He's always concerned about their experience, how easy it is for them to get applications written, how easy it is for them to get them up and running at the end of the day. We're a loan company, you know. That's way we lean on accounting like red. That's where we get our support front. That's why we decided to go with a product like open shift. I really, really like to product. So I went down. The certification are out in the training ground to learn more about open shit itself. So my daughter's teacher, they were doing a day of coding, and so they asked me if I wanted to come and talk about what I do and then spend the day helping the kids do their coding class. The people that we have on our teams, like Jason, are what make us better than our competitors, right? Anybody could buy something off the shelf. It's people like him. They're able to take that and mold it into something that then it is a great offering for our partners and for >> customers. Please welcome Red Hat Certified Professional of the Year Jason Hyatt. >> Jason, Congratulations. Congratulations. What a what a big day, huh? What a really big day. You know, it's great. It's great to see such work, You know that you've done here. But you know what's really great and shows out in your video It's really especially rewarding. Tow us. And I'm sure to you as well to see how skills can open doors for for one for young women, like your daughters who already loves technology. So I'd liketo I'd like to present this to you right now. Take congratulations. Congratulations. Good. And we I know you're going to bring this passion. I know you bring this in, everything you do. So >> it's this Congratulations again. Thanks, Paul. It's been really exciting, and I was really excited to bring my family here to show the experience. It's it's >> really great. It's really great to see him all here as well going. Maybe we could you could You guys could stand up. So before we leave before we leave the stage, you know, I just wanted to ask, What's the most important skill that you'LL pass on from all your training to the future generations? >> So I think the most important thing is you have to be a continuous learner you can't really settle for. Ah, you can't be comfortable on learning, which I already know. You have to really drive a continuous Lerner. And of course, you got to use the I ninety. Maxwell. Quite. >> I don't even have to ask you the question. Of course. Right. Of course. That's awesome. That's awesome. And thank you. Thank you for everything, for everything that you're doing. So thanks again. Thank you. You know what makes open source work is passion and people that apply those considerable talents that passion like Jason here to making it worked and to contribute their idea there. There's back. And believe me, it's really an impressive group of people. You know you're family and especially Berkeley in the video. I hope you know that the redhead, the certified of the year is the best of the best. The cream of the crop and your dad is the best of the best of that. So you should be very, very happy for that. I also and I also can't wait. Teo, I also can't wait to come back here on this stage ten years from now and present that same award to you. Berkeley. So great. You should be proud. You know, everything you've heard about today is just a small representation of what's ahead of us. We've had us. We've had a set of goals and realize some bold goals over the last number of years that have gotten us to where we are today. Just to recap those bold goals First bait build a company based solely on open source software. It seems so logical now, but it had never been done before. Next building the operating system of the future that's going to run in power. The enterprise making the standard base platform in the op in the Enterprise Olympics based operating system. And after that making hybrid cloud the architecture of the future make hybrid the new data center, all leading to the largest software acquisition in history. Think about it around us around a company with one hundred percent open source DNA without. Throughout. Despite all the fun we encountered over those last seventeen years, I have to ask, Is there really any question that open source has won? Realizing our bold goals and changing the way software is developed in the commercial world was what we set out to do from the first day in the Red Hat was born. But we only got to that goal because of you. Many of you contributors, many of you knew toe open source software and willing to take the risk along side of us and many of partners on that journey, both inside and outside of Red Hat. Going forward with the reach of IBM, Red hat will accelerate. Even Mohr. This will bring open source general innovation to the next generation hybrid data center, continuing on our original mission and goal to bring open source technology toe every corner of the planet. What I what I just went through in the last hour Soul, while mind boggling to many of us in the room who have had a front row seat to this overto last seventeen plus years has only been red hats. First step. Think about it. We have brought open source development from a niche player to the dominant development model in software and beyond. Open Source is now the cornerstone of the multi billion dollar enterprise software world and even the next generation hybrid act. Architecture would not even be possible without Lennox at the core in the open innovation that it feeds to build around it. This is not just a step forward for software. It's a huge leap in the technology world beyond even what the original pioneers of open source ever could have imagined. We have. We have witnessed open source accomplished in the last seventeen years more than what most people will see in their career. Or maybe even a lifetime open source has forever changed the boundaries of what will be possible in technology in the future. And in the one last thing to say, it's everybody in this room and beyond. Everyone outside continue the mission. Thanks have a great sum. It's great to see it

SUMMARY :

Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome Red Hat President Products and Technologies. Kennedy setting the gold to the American people to go to the moon. that point I knew that despite the promise of Lennox, we had a lot of work ahead of us. So it is an honor for me to be able to show it to you live on stage today. And we're not about the clinic's eight. And Morgan, There's windows. That means that for the first time, you can log in from any device Because that's the standard Lennox off site. I love the dashboard overview of the system, You see the load of the system, some some of its properties. So what about if I have to add a whole new application to this environment? Which the way for you to install different versions of your half stack that That is fantastic and the application streams Want to keep up with the fast moving ecosystems off programming I know some people were thinking it right now. everyone you want two or three or whichever your application needs. And I'm going to the rat knowledge base and looking up things like, you know, PV create VD, I've opened the storage space for you right here, where you see an overview of your storage. you know, we'll have another question for you. you know a lot of people, including me and people in the audience like that dark out right? much easier, including a post gra seeker and, of course, the python that we saw right there. Yeah, absolutely. And it's saved so that you don't actually have to know all the various incantations from Amazon I All right, Well, if you want to prevent a holy war in your system, you can actually use satellite to filter that out. Okay, So this VM image we just created right now from that blueprint this is now I can actually go out there and easily so you can really hit your Clyburn hybrid cloud operating system images. and I just need a few moments for it to build. So while that's taking a few moments, I know there's another key question in the minds of the audience right now, You see all my relate machines here, including the one I showed you what Consul on before. Okay, okay, so now it's progressing. it's progressing. live upgrade on stage. Detective that and you know, it doesn't run the Afghan cause we don't support operating that. So the good news is, we were protected from possible failed upgrade there, That's the idea. And I really love what you showed us there. So you were away for so long. So the really cool thing about this bird is that all of these images were built So thank you so much for that large. more to talk to you about. I'm going to show you here a satellite inventory and his So he's all the machines can get updated in one fell swoop. And there's one thing that I want to bring your attention to today because it's brand new. I know that in the minds of the audience right now. I've actually been waiting for a while patiently for you to get to the really good stuff. there's one more thing that I wanted to let folks know about. next eight and some features that we have there. So, actually, one of the key design principles of relate is working with our customers over the last twenty years to integrate OK, so we basically have this new feature. So And this is this list is growing every single day, so customers can actually opt in to the rules that are most But it comes to CVS and things that nature. This is the satellite that we saw before, and I'll grab one of the hosts and I love it so it's just a single command and you're ready to register this box right now. I'm going to show you one more thing. I know everyone's waiting for it as well, But hey, you're VM is ready. Yeah, insights is a really cool feature And I've got it in all my images already. the machines registering on cloud that redhead dot com ready to be managed. OK, so all those onstage PM's as well as the hybrid cloud VM should be popping in IRC Post Chris equals Well, We saw that in the overview, and I can actually go and get some more details about what this everybody to go try this like, we really need to get this thing going and try it out right now. don't know, sent about the room just yet. And even though it's really easy to get going on and we kind of, you know, when a little bit sideways here moments. I went brilliant. We hear about that all the time, as I just told Please welcome Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. And thank thank you so much for coming for But first and foremost, our job is to ensure the safety, and for the geeks in the audience, I think there's a few of them out there. before And you know, Vendors seldom had a system anywhere near the size of ours, and we couldn't give them our classified open source, you know, for even open source existing. And if the security vulnerability comes out, we don't have to chase around getting fixes from Multan slo all the way to the extract excess Excuse scale supercomputing. share any more details about that system right now, but we are hoping that we're going to be able of the data center spread across so many multiple environments, management had to be I know all of you have heard we're talking to pretend to new customers about the travel out. Earlier we showed you read Enterprise Clinic St running on lots of In large part, that's because open shit for has extended management of the clusters down to the infrastructure, you can now see the machines that make up the cluster where machine represents the infrastructure. Thes software operators are responsible for aligning the cluster to a desired state. of Cooper Netease Technologies that have the operational characteristics that Dan's going to actually let us has made the sequel server operator available to me and my team. Okay, so this point we can kind of provisions, And if I scroll to the list, we can see the different workloads Jessica just mentioned Okay, But And the way they all those killers working is Okay, so looks like capacity planning and automation is fully, you know, handle this point. Is the cluster admin right now into the console? This gives a cluster I've been the ability to maintain the operators they've already installed. So this is our products application that's talking to that sequel server instance. So, you know, everyone in this room, you know, wants to see you hit that upgrade button. And that point, the new, softer operator will notice. So glad the team doesn't have to worry about that anymore and just got I think enough of these might have run by Now, if you try your app again Let's see Jessica's application up here. And yet look, we're We're into two before we're onto three. So I'm going to switch this automatic approval. And so I was glad you guys got a chance to see that rolling update across the cluster. And I'll dig into the azure cluster that we were just taking a look at. all you have to do is log in with your red hair credentials to get access. So one console, one user experience to see across the entire hybrid cloud we saw earlier with Red Thanks so much to burn his team. of technology, Rich Hodak. How you doing? center all the way to the edge while being as effective as you have been over of the open hybrid cloud, and now we're going to show you a few more things. You're in the business of oil and gas from the business retail. And this is your crew vanities. Well, that's the one that my team built right here on this stage. Oh, large shirt, you windows. open shift container storage automatically detects the available hardware configuration to What kind of storage would you What, What kind of applications would you use with the storage? four hundred messages for second, the system seems to be performing well, right? Now I am a curious because I know other folks in the audience want to know this too. So you can really use the latest coolest to manage And but I am curious about the azure functions component. and this azure function, you know, Let's see if this will We're going to see the event triggered. So next, Now let's move that note to maintain it. I wanna make sure you understand one thing, and that is there is no underlying virtual ization software here. You know, the events in the event stream changes have started to happen. And if we go to Twitter? All right, we got tweets. No. So we want to bring you a cloud like experience, but this means is I want you to go out there and think about visiting our partner Del and their booth where they have one. Right here, Right now. So, to close the loop, you can have your plaster connected to cloud redhead These clusters get a chance to talk to them about how to run your open shift for on a bare metal Thank you. rail, that the platform has to be developer friendly. Please welcome. What we go you guys trying to accomplish at BP and and How is the goal One of our strategic priorities that we have is to modernize the whole group on. So we're using chlo based technologies And highlight in the skill part of this presentation We're going to meet the type of person that makes And so in the early eighties, welcome Red Hat Certified Professional of the Year Jason Hyatt. So I'd liketo I'd like to present this to you right now. to bring my family here to show the experience. before we leave before we leave the stage, you know, I just wanted to ask, What's the most important So I think the most important thing is you have to be a continuous learner you can't really settle for. And in the one last thing to say, it's everybody in this room and

Michael Bratsch, Franklin Middle School & Leigh Day, Red Hat | Red Hat Summit 2019


 

>> live from Boston, Massachusetts. It's the queue covering your red hat. Some twenty nineteen. You buy bread. >> Oh, good afternoon. And welcome back as the Cube continues our live coverage. Exclusive coverage of Redhead Summit twenty nineteen here in Boston. Some nine thousand strong attendees here. Key notes have been jam packed, but we just finished our afternoon session not too long ago again. Very well attended. Dynamic speakers stew Minimum. John Walls. We're joined now by Lee Dae. Who's the Vice president of Marketing Communications? That Red Hatley. Good to see you. I see you and Michael brats, who was a teacher of English as a second language of Franklin Middle School in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Mr B. Good to see you, sir. And that's what your your students call you, Mr B. Is that right? What they do, we saw that way. Might just follow through on that tradition right now. All right, let's talk about why the two of you are here together. And I know you're Michael School has an interesting history that they've been kind of following somewhat independently, you know, in terms of open source and work. And only you found them through your marketing work some really very interesting. Two avenues that you have on your platform. So tell me a little bit about how how you got here. And then we'LL get into it after that. >> Okay, Great. So Red Hat has a program called co lab and this sir program where we go into schools and we teach kids how to code. So we do things like circuit boards and programming on raspberry pies. Kids have program raspberry pies into cameras to go around cities and take pictures. And we have had collapse in many cities, and we hadn't hit the Midwest. And we chose Minneapolis. And we found, fortunately, Franklin Middle School in that great group of girls and two awesome teachers that are very inspirational on, So the relationship didn't stop it. That week of coal lab, we have stayed in touch, and here at the summit, we've showcased the work in the police ship that we have together. Yeah, >> and I know a lot of the focus that the program is toward, uh, appealing to younger ladies. You know, young girls trying to get them or involved in stem education. We just had the two award winners for the women and open source with us just a few moments ago. So this is Ahh, a company wide. Durant wants a directive initiative that you said, Okay, we we have a responsibility, and we think we have a role here to play >> absolutely well. It's important to us to see the next generation of technologists. And when you feel like women, especially young women sometimes feel like technology is inaccessible to them, and they're not often in technology programs and university. So it's our initiative. Teo help young people feel comfortable and good about technology and that they can actually code. And they can actually do things that they didn't think were possible to them previously. >> So, Mr B. Help us understand how this fixing curriculum and give us a little bit of the story of how it went down. >> Well, it's funny asset. I mean, this opportunity for us is a home run out the part because we're a steam school science, technology, engineering, arts in math. So today, not only did our students perform on the main stage a song that we were able to collaborate right and go through a >> whole production process >> with music were also able to on there right now as we speak down running a booth, building circuits, presenting those circuits, presenting those circuit boards, and collaborating altogether down there with attendees of this conference right now. So, I mean, we're covering every one of those steam components, basically, in one project, one large scale technology project. So this opportunity homeland out the >> part. >> I love that because that was the first thing I went to mind. I heard photography involved. You say steam and so much, you know, we can't just have tech for Tex take. You know, I worried I studied engineering and, like, things like design and those kind of things right weren't in the curriculum. But you know what? I went to school. Creative side. Yeah. How important is that? You kind of get especially think young people get the enthusiasm going. That creative side would, you know, get them deeper into it. >> Well, you know, I always look att, individual students. Everybody has their individual gifts and talents, and it's about, you know, finding those leadership skills within each one of those gifts. And so within this, you're able to find someone that might be more creative in one area, maybe more technical and more, you know, logic orientated in other areas. So with that, you're able to just have Mohr a broader spectrum to be ableto find people's individual gives in towns and for them to in the collaboration also contribute their gifts and talents in different avenues instead of it just being one lane like just this part of technology or just this part of production and just this part of design were able to kind of integrate all of that into one thing and to take it one step further. After we did the, um So Cola came out with their mobile container to US Bank Stadium in Minneapolis, Minnesota, and it was right downtown, right outside of where our football team players brand new stadium Super Bowl is is there two years ago now And, um, so with our students being there after we got done with that, that cold lamb, when they were asking us, you know, to take it a step further in the classroom are students actually designed with our future boys Lo Bill Future Girls logo a card and then presented it to Red hat and they ended up printing off the cars and they were able to use it to build the circuit. So we weren't just using the coal lab cars. But we also got to design our own, too. >> So, you know, you said future boy's feet. So that's that's a new organization, the club that you formed the school Future Boys and Girls Club for the express purpose of what? >> Well, so we actually tie in all different content areas into assault. Obviously, this is just the future girls that are here in Boston and did the technology side with us and that parts of Spain the cold because it's an initiative for girls in technology but of the future boys and girls, uh, overall program. We encompass a lot of different continent as we integrate performing arts with academics and all the components of esteem school, um, into learning. And we do interest based learning. We do project based learning, and basically, you know, kids are learning a lot without realizing how much they're really learning, you know, and we make it fun and relevant. But we also teach the leadership skills in the hard work that goes in with it. And I mean, even just coming out here to Boston for this, uh, for this opportunity here in this summit, I mean, the amount of work that it took for the students to get here and the process, the ups and downs, especially with middle school students. You know, the marathon, not a sprint mentality, you know, has been absolutely amazing. >> Good luck with that eye. Well, >> I always say I >> haven't had a bad day yet. Just an overstimulating one. >> So lately, you know, we love having stories on the Cube and especially tech for good is something that we always get a good dose here at Red had some it. You know what else can share some of the open tour stories that were going on around the event? >> We're really thrilled. Today. We're launching our newest open source story, which is about agriculture and which we choose topics with open source stories that are important every everyone so medicine, helping to find cures for cancer, even our government and artificial intelligence. And today it's about open hardware and open agriculture. And we're launching a new film this afternoon. >> It's all future farming, right? Right. That that's the viewing today. >> Yes, and we had someone showing their their farming computer on our stage, and it's actually done in Summit >> Show for today. So you've got the open studio, you know, working and you have a number of projects. I assume this fell into one of those slots right where you were Using one of those platforms to feature great work of future farming is another example of this, But But you have some, I think, pretty neat things that you've created some slots that give you a chance to promote open source in a very practical and very relatable way. >> Yes, exactly. So our Opens our open studio is our internal creative community agency. But we do get ideas from everyone around, you know, around the world. So wait, get ideas about open agriculture, eh? I, uh, what we can do with kids and programming with kids. And then we take those ideas into the open studio and it is a meritocracy. So the best ideas when and that's what we choose to bring to life. And we have designers and writers and filmmakers and strategist and a whole group of people that make up the open studio inside a red hat >> And you've done a new feature, Frank. >> Yes. So, yeah. We work together to create the container that doctor be mentioned and to create the container. And then we work. When >> you have you >> have. You know, one of the girls Taylor actually taught me just now I am not technical. I will just give that caveat. But they they make, they made circuit boards, and they're making circuit boards here. Some issue and mine doesn't work. So don't That's okay. Just, basically were you can see here we have different designs that are attendees can choose from, and then we have electrical tape that you are sorry, competent and an led light. And so the idea is to toe form a circuit and to have led light item the card. That's great. So one of the one of the girls actually taught me how to make it, but I think I didn't follow >> her. Instructed you to go back to school. Wouldn't be the first time that I would have fallen apart either on that. So where Michael, Where would you be now without red hat? Or, you know, you were doing your own thing right independently. But now you've received some unexpected support. Where would you be? You think was out that help. And how much of a difference have they made >> you? Well, let me tell you. I mean, you know, when we look at it being an after school program, the amount of enrichment and opportunities that redhead has created for us has been, honestly, just unbelievable. It's been first class, and we're so appreciative. I mean, even even in our meeting with the future girls last night, we just talked about gratitude and how grateful we are for it. I mean, when you look at this circuit, this is an abbreviated version of what the students actually participate in. This is, you know, just a one one, uh, one led light and a small formation our students were doing. I think there were seven or eight on ours. And so the amount of learning in the modern opportunity that this presented to him not only have they learned how to do the technical piece of it, they've learned howto present. They've learned howto speak and present. They've learned howto call lab, collaborate, work together on huge levels, and I mean, they learned what they can take on an airplane, you know, coming out here. So I mean, the amount of things that through the learning process of, like, eye color, large scale technology project that we've been participating since October since they brought the mobile lab out to Minneapolis. I called a large scale tech, you know, technology project, and going through that whole process has been huge. And let me tell you this as a teacher and those that are parents you're competing was so much in this day and age to keep kids attention, right? I mean, everything is swiped the phone every which way and everything. So instant gratification. So for students to actually engage in this cola program for to be set up so well from Red Hat and to actually stick with it and stay engaged with it really speaks volumes denying the program. But also, you know, our students staying engaged with it, but they've they've stuck with it, they've been engaged, and it's very interest based, the project I've seen it through. But then also the renewed opportunities and being ableto one of the things on our rubric as the teacher is toe expand and extend the learning I don't mean to be long winded, but we wanted, you know, expand on the learning that's already taken place and being out here, it's just it's just a continuous continuation of the learning, you know, not just one level going to next level going on next long light, next level. And that's that, honestly, is where the real learning really takes place. >> So, Michael, you know, from its very nature being an open source company, you know, Red Hat talks a lot about it. Ecosystem in community. If I five red right in the notes, they're you know, your student really getting the value and understanding of community. There's something about they wrote a song. Talk >> about that. We become stronger. Yeah, that's the name of the song is we become stronger And you know what the idea was. We were looking at the power point for this summer and for this summit, and in that there was, uh there was a phrase that said ideas become stronger and that's the collaboration. And so we started tossed around ideas and things like that were like, Well, we liked the idea of stronger, and then we're like, Well, this is more of the coal lab experience, not just the ideas of the technical side. And that's why we become stronger. And yet we developed a song specifically for this summit. I think you go top for, you know. >> Yeah, the performance was amazing. >> Yeah, you don't want >> one top forty, to be honest with you, but no. I mean, uh, you know, and that was another whole another phase, you know, like, I talked about the steam side of the school. Um uh, integrating the arts in and the whole production side of that, you know, it was a lot of work and another project, but it was another area of content that we're able to integrate into this project, and, uh, and we're able to perform it on stage. So, like I said, they literally just got off stage performing. We become stronger singing the whole production of song a dance routine choreography and then went straight to the boot to now present circuits and teach attendees here at the summit howto build a circuit. I don't know how much better can get in that. >> That is so cool. That's great. Now is this the song that you recorded in the same studio. Lenny Kravitz. Atlantis More. Tell me you didn't like that, huh? >> I mean, you know, it's all right. >> That's good. That's great. Congratulations, Roy. On this collaboration, it's really it is exciting to see what they're doing to inspire young people on Michael. I can tell you like your job. Don't you love it? I love it. Yeah, yeah, yeah, absolutely. Well, keep up the great work. And we appreciate the time here. And I look forward to hearing that song. Maybe if it hits, you know, the ice store. You know, Apple Store, maybe, You know, maybe good things will happen, right? Hey, you never know. She's Vice president marketing. We're gonna figure this. I'm checking out. I tio go by weight, become stronger. Thanks, Michael. We appreciate Lee. Thank you for having me back with more. Here on the Cube. You're watching our coverage, right? Had some twenty nineteen, but

SUMMARY :

It's the queue covering of following somewhat independently, you know, in terms of open source and work. And we have had collapse in many cities, and we hadn't hit the Midwest. and I know a lot of the focus that the program is toward, uh, appealing to younger ladies. And when you feel like women, So, Mr B. Help us understand how this fixing curriculum and give us a little bit of the story of not only did our students perform on the main stage a song that we were able to collaborate right So this opportunity homeland out the That creative side would, you know, get them deeper into it. and it's about, you know, finding those leadership skills within each one of those gifts. the club that you formed the school Future Boys and Girls Club for the express purpose of and basically, you know, kids are learning a lot without realizing how much they're really learning, Good luck with that eye.

Day 1 Kickoff | Red Hat Summit 2019


 

>> live from Boston, Massachusetts. It's the queue covering your red hat. Some twenty nineteen lots. You buy bread >> and good morning. Welcome to Beantown, Boston, Massachusetts to Mina Mons Hometown by the police Town of residents. John Wallis was stupid from here on the Q. Bert had summit and stew for you. Good to see you here. And a home game. >> Yeah, John, Thanks so much. Nice. You know, Boston, The Cube loves Boston. The B C E C is actually where the first cube event was way back in twenty ten. And we wish there were more conferences here in Boston. Gorgeous weather here in the spring. Ah, little chilly at night with the wind coming off the water, but really good. Here is the sixth year we've had the Cube here, right? Had some in my fifth year at the show. Great energy. And, you know, thirty four billion reasons why people are spending a lot of time keeping a close eye on. Let's just know. Yeah, >> jump right in thirty four billion dollar deal. I am red hatt gotta prove by doj uh, here in the States. But there's still some hurdles that they have to get over in order for that to come to fruition, Maybe later this year. That's the expectation. But just your thoughts right now about about that synergy about that opportunity that that we think is about to have. >> Yeah, so? So right, let's get this piece out of the way. Because here at the conference, we're talking about Red Hat. The acquisition has not completed. So while the CEO of IBM you know Jenny will be up on stage tonight along with, you know, Jim White Hirsi over at Hat and Sakina della, you know, flying in from Seattle, where you might get your name yesterday. So you know, at least two of those three your Cuba Lem's. So we'LL get Jenny on one of these days. But, you know, this is a big acquisition, the largest software acquisition ever, and third largest acquisition in tech history. Now we watched the first biggest tech acquisition in history, which was Del buying AMC just a couple of years ago. And this is not the normal. Okay? Hey, we announced it and you know, it closed quietly in a few months. So as you mentioned, DOJ approved it. There's a few more government agencies Europe needs to go through. You never know what China might ask to come in here, but, you know, really, at the core if you look at it, you know, IBM and Red Hat have worked together for decades. You know, we wrote a lot about this when the announcement happened. You know, IBM is no stranger to open source. IBM is no stranger to the clinics and the areas where Red Hat has been growing and expanded too. You see, IBM, they're so communities, you know, super hot space. If you look, you know, Red hat is they're they're open shift platform, which is what Red Hat does for cloud. Native Development has over a thousand customers. They're adding between one hundred one hundred fifty a quarter is what they talk about publicly. We're gonna have some of those customers on this week. So huge area. That multi cloud hybrid cloud world absolutely is where it's at. We did four days of broadcast from IBM. Think earlier this year in San Francisco. And, you know, once again, Jim white hairs and Jenny were on stage together. They're talking about where they've been working together for a long time. and just, you know, some things will change, but from IBM standpoint, they said, Look, you know, the day after this closes, you know, Red Hat doesn't go away. That had just announced new branding, and everybody's like, Well, why are they changing their branding? You know, when you know IBM is taking over and the answer was, Look, Red Hat's going to stay as a standalone entity. IBM says they're not going to have a single lay off, not even HR consolidation, at least in the beginning. We understand, you know, give me your stuff to work out some of these pieces, but there are ears. They will work together. I look at it. John is like the core. What is the biggest piece of IBM's business is services. That Army of services, both from IBM and all of their Esai partners and everybody they worked with Khun really supercharge and help scale some of the environment that red hats doing so really interesting. Expect them to talk a little bit about it. Red hat is way more transparent than your average company. They had an analyst event like a week or two after it happened, and I was really surprised how much they would tell us and that we could talk about publicly. As I said, just cause I've seen so many acquisitions happen, including some you know, mega ones in the past. And we know how little usually you talk about until it it's done and it's signed. And, you know, the bankers and lawyers have been paid all their fees. >> Let me ask you, you raise an interesting point. Um, you know that there are some different approaches, obviously, between IBM redhead, just in terms of their institutional legacies in terms of processes. Red hat. You mentioned very transparent organization. Open source. Right. So we're all about the rebrand. They come out, you know, the drop shadow, man, They got the hat. What's that cultural mix going to be like? Can they truly run independently? Yeah, they're a big piece. So And if your IBM can you let that run on its own? >> So, John, that is the question most of us have. So, you know, I've worked with Red Hat for coming up on twenty years now, you know, Remember when Lennox was just this mess of colonel dot organ. So much changes that red hat came and gave, you know, adult supervision to help move that forward on. The thing I I wrote about is what Red Hat is really, really good at. If you look at the core, there do is managing that chaos and change on the industry. If you look how many changes happen, toe Lennox, you know every you know, day, week, month and they package all that together and they test all that same thing in Kou Burnett is the same thing in so many different spaces where that open source world is just frenetic and changing. So they're really geared for today's industry. You talk what's the only constant in our industry? John is it is changed. IBM, on the other hand, is like, you know, over one hundred years old, and I tried and true, you know, Big Blue. You know, I ibm is this, you know, the big tanker, you know, it's not like they turn on a dime and you know, rapid pace of change. You think of IBM, you think of innovation. You think of, you know, trust. You think of all the innovations that have come out over the century. Plus do there and absolutely there is a little bit of impeded mismatch there and we'LL see So if ibm Khun truly let them do their own thing and not kind of merged suit groups and take over where the inertia of a larger group can slow things down I hope it will be successful But they're definitely our concerns And time will tell we'll see But you know analytics front You know, they just announced this morning Rehl eight Red hat enterprise linen, you know, just got announced and definitely something will be spent a lot of time So >> let's just jump in a relative Look again, We're gonna hear a little bit later on. We have several folks coming on board to talk aboutthe availability. Now what? What do you see from the outside? Looking at that. What is it going to allow you or us to do that? Seven Didn't know. Where did they improve? Is that on the automation side? Is it being maybe more attentive, Teo Hybrid environment or just What is it about? Really? That makes that special? >> Yes. So you know, first of all, you know these things take a while in the nice thing about being open sources. We've had transparency. If you wanted to know it was going to be in relate. You just look in the Colonel and and it's all out there. They've been working on this since twenty thirteen. Well, seven came out back in June of twenty fourteen. This has been a number of years in the mix. You know, security. The new, like crypto policy is a big piece that that's in their thie bullets that I got when I got the pre briefing on, It was, you know, faster and easier Deploy faster on boarding for non lennox users on, you know, seamless nondestructive migration from earlier versions of rail. So that's one of the things they really want to focus on is that it needs to be predictable, and I need to be able to move from one version the other. If you look at the cloud world, you know, when you don't go asking customers say, Hey, what version of Azure a ws are you running on your running on the latest and greatest? But if you look at traditional shrink wrap software, it was well, what virginity running? Well, I'm running in minus two and Why is that? Because I have to get it. I have to test it out. And then I, you know, find a time that I'm gonna roll that out, work it in my environment. So there is stability and understanding of the release cycle. My understanding is that they're going to do major releases every three years and minor releases every six months. So that cadence a little bit more like the cloud. And as I said, getting from one version a rail to the next should be easier and more non disruptive. Ah, a lot of people are going to want manage offerings where they don't really think about this. I have the latest version because that has not just the latest features but the latest security setting, which, of course, is a major piece of my infrastructure today to make sure that if there was some vulnerability released, I can't wait, You know, six or nine months for me to bake that in there. The limits community's always good have done a good job of getting fixes into it. But how fast can I roll that out into my environment is >> something I would assume that's that's a major factor in any consideration right now is is on the security front, because every day we hear about one more problem and these are just small little issues. These these air are could be multi billion dollar problems. But in terms of making products available today, how Muchmore important? How's that security shift? If you could put a percentage on it used to be, you know, axe and now it's X plus. I mean I mean, what kind of considerations are being given? >> You know what I'd say? Used to be that security got great lip service A. Said it was usually top of mind, but often towards bottom of budget. When you talk to administrators and you say, Oh, hey, where's your last security initiative? And that, like I've had that thing sitting on my desk for the last six months and I haven't had a chance to roll that out. I will get to it, but I want to again. If you go to that cloud operating model. If you talk about you know Dev, Ops movement is, I need to bake security into the process. If I'm doing C i D. It's not, I do something and then think about security afterwards. Security needs to be built in from the ground level. A CZ. You know, I I've heard people in the industry. Security is everyone's responsibility, and security must be baked in everywhere. So from the application all the way down to the chipset, we need to be thinking about security along the bar. Mind it is a board level discussion. Any user you talk too, you know, you don't say, Hey, where's the security sitting? Your priorities. You know, it's up there towards the top, if not vey top, because that's the thing that could put us out of business or, you know, definitely ruin careers. If if it doesn't go >> right, so there are there are probably a couple of platforms, every will or pillars. I think you like to call them that. You're looking forward to learning more about this week. I think in terms of red hats work one of those green hybrid cloud infrastructure, and we'LL get to the other to a little bit. But just your thoughts about how they're addressing that with the products that they offered the services they offer and where they're going in that >> Yeah, so look everything for red at start with rail. Everything is built on Lenox, and that's a good thing, because Lennox Endeavor is everywhere. If last year is that Microsoft ignite for the first time. And when you hear them talking a Microsoft talking about how Lennox is the majority of the environment, more than fifty percent of the environment are running linen goto a ws Same thing. All the cloud deployment Lennox is the preferred substrate underneath and Rehl doing very well to live in all those environment. So what we look at is, you know, some people say, is this olynyk show. It's like, well, at the core. Lin IX is the piece of it and relate the latest and greatest substantiation. But everywhere you go, there's going to be Lennox there from doing container ization. If a building on top of it with the the new cloud native models, it's there. And if you talk about how I get from my data center to a multi cloud environment, it's building things like Cooper Netease, which read that of course, uses open shift and you know those ties to eight of us and azure and you know, Google they're all there. So we mention Santina della's on stage tonight at Microsoft build. Yesterday there was announcement of this thing called Kita ke e d A, which has, like as your functions and ties in with open shift and spend a little time squinting it, trying to tease it apart. We've got some guests this week that'LL hopefully give some clarity, but it is. The answer is people today have multiple clouds and they have a lot of different ways they want. They want to do things, and Red has going to make sure that they help bridge the gap and simplify those environments across the board. Two years ago, when we were at the show big announcement about how open shift integrates with a W s so that if I'm using a ws But I want to have things in my environment still leverage some of those services. That was something that that Red had announced. I was, you know, quite impressed a time it was, you know, just last week being at the Del Show, it's V m. Where is the del strategy for how they get you know, A W, S, G, C, P and Azure and, you know, Red Hat does that themselves. Their software company. They live in all these cloud worlds, and therefore, open shift will help you extend from your data center through all of those public cloud environments on DH, you know? Yeah. So it's fascinating >> you've talked about Lennox to we're going to hear a little bit later on to about a fascinating the global economic study, that Red Hat Commission with the I. D. C. Of that talks about this ten trillion dollar impact of Lennox around the globe like to dive into that a little bit later on. >> Yeah, well, it's interesting, you know, it's the line I used is you say, and you say, Oh, well, how much impact is Lennox had? You know? You know, Red hats now, a three billion dollar company. That's good. But I was like, Okay, let's just take Google. You know, no slots of a company. Google underneath. It's not Red Hat Lennox, but Lennox is the foundation. I don't really think that Google could become the global search and advertising powerhouse they were. If it wasn't for Lennox to be able to help them get environment, there's a CZ we always talk with these technologies. You talk about Lennox, you talk about How do you talk about, you know, Cooper Netease? There are companies that will monetize it, but the real value is what business models and creation by. You know, all the enterprise is the service riders in the hyper scales that those technologies help enable. And that's where open source really shines is, you know, the order of magnitude network effect, that open source solutions have that its you say okay, three billion dollars? And is that what ten trillion dollars? It doesn't faze me, doesn't surprise me at all, but because my attention it look it. I'm not trying to trivialize. There's no But, you know, I've been watching clinics for twenty years, and I've seen the ripples of that effect. And if you dig down underneath your often finding it inside, >> I mentioned pillars that you were talking about cloud native development being another. But automation, let's just hit on that real quick before we head off on DH just again, with how that is being, I guess, highlighted. Or that's a central focus at and relate and and what automation? How that's playing in there I guess the new efficiencies they're trying to squeeze out. >> Yes. So? So what we always looked for it shows you're probably the last year is you know, you. How are they getting beyond the buzzwords? Aye, aye. When you talk about automation on area that that we've really enjoyed digging into is like robotic process automation. How do I take something that was manual? And maybe it was a fish injure? Not great. How can I make it perfectly efficient and use software robots to do that? So where are the places where I know that the amount of change and the scale and the growth that we have that I couldn't just put somebody to keyboard, you know, and have them typing or even a dashboard to be able to monitor and keep up with things? If I don't have the automation and intelligence in the system to manage things, I can't reach the scale and the growth that I need to. So where are you know, real solutions that are helping customers, you know, get over a little bit of the fear of Oh, my gosh, I'm losing a job. Or will this work or will this keep my business running and oh, my gosh, this will actually enabled me to be able to grow work on that security issue if I need to, rather than some of the other pieces and help really allow it agility to meet the requirements of what the business requires to help me move forward. So those are some of the things we kind of look across the shows. So, you know? Yeah. How much do we get? You know, buzzword, Bingo at the show. Where How much do we hear? You know, real customers with real solutions digging in and having, you know, new technologies that a couple of years ago would have had a saying, Wow, that's magic. >> But you say, Oh, my gosh. Yeah, and I don't want gosh right back with more. You're watching to serve the cube with the red had summit. We're in Boston, Massachusetts, that we'll be back with more coverage right after this

SUMMARY :

It's the queue covering Good to see you here. And, you know, thirty four billion reasons why people are spending a lot of time But there's still some hurdles that they have to get over in order for that to come to fruition, they said, Look, you know, the day after this closes, you know, Red Hat doesn't go away. They come out, you know, the drop shadow, man, They got the hat. So much changes that red hat came and gave, you know, adult supervision to help move that forward on. What is it going to allow you or us to do that? you know, when you don't go asking customers say, Hey, what version of Azure a ws are you running on your you know, axe and now it's X plus. you know, definitely ruin careers. I think you like to call them that. So what we look at is, you know, some people say, that Red Hat Commission with the I. D. C. Of that talks about this ten And that's where open source really shines is, you know, the order of magnitude network I mentioned pillars that you were talking about cloud native development being another. real solutions that are helping customers, you know, get over a little bit of the fear of Oh, But you say, Oh, my gosh.

Leigh Day, Ellie Galloway & Sara Chipps | Red Hat Summit 2018


 

(upbeat electronic music) >> Announcer: Live from San Francisco, it's theCUBE. Covering Red Hat Summit 2018. Brought to you by Red Hat. >> Hey, welcome back, everyone. This is theCUBE, we're live in San Francisco, California, here at Moscone West, Red Hat Summit 2018. I'm John Furrier, the co-host of theCUBE. We've got three great guests, exciting segment. Really looking at the future of computer programming, the youth in our generation, the young minds, and the award winners here at Red Hat Summit. Our three guests are Leigh Day, Vice Present of Marketing and Communications at Red Hat. Ellie Galloway with Jewelbots, and Sara Chipps, CTO at Jewelbots Thanks for spending the time and coming on. I really appreciate it. Love this story because I always, as a computer person, I always love getting nerdy, but now nerd is the new cool. So starting young and coding is not just for guys anymore, it's for everybody. So congratulations on your success. Take a minute to explain what's happened here, because the folks watching don't know what happened yesterday. You guys were featured at part of Open Source Stars. Leigh, talk about the story. >> So about three years ago, the Red Hat Marketing Communications Group decided that they needed a passion project, something that would make them feel more energized about coming to work and not just selling products, but telling genuine stories about people. We started our Open Source Stories films series, and that has turned into Open Source Stories Live as well. So yesterday we brought awesome stories, like Jewelbots to our stage to tell the story of children and others getting involved in coding. And Ellie and Femmie on our stage, talking about how people should code for good and we really love that message and applaud that. >> And coding is so social because it's fun. So talk about Jewelbots and what's happening here? So how did this get started? And then I'll go into some specific questions for the young future star here. (laughter) Sara, how did it all get started? >> Yeah, so Jewelbots got started out of a desire to make a product for young girls, to get them excited about coding. So we talked to about 200 girls and we asked them what was interesting to them, and over and over from them we heard that their friendships are really important to them. And so when we were talking to them about a bracelet that lights up when your friends are nearby and you can use it to send secret messages, they got really excited. And so that's what we built and we made it open source so they would code it as well. >> How did it all get started? What was the motivation, what motivated you to take on this project? >> Good question. So I've been a software developer for seventeen years, I was five years into my career before I worked with another woman and it was another five years after that, before I worked with another one. So I really, you know, I love this career and I wanted to figure out a way to get more women excited about doing it. So, talking to my male peers, I heard from them that they started about middle school age, and so I wanted to find something for girls that would also inspire them in that way. >> That's awesome, thank you so much for doing that. I love the story, it's super important. Now, how did you get involved? You just loved programming? You wake up one day and say, hey, I love programming? How did you get involved? >> Well first, me and my dad, my dad works for Microsoft, he helped me code a game in Unity and so I love coding games so much that later he showed me Minecraft min code. And so I got involved in that, by then I kind of knew how to code and everything, so I only asked my dad for help if I absolutely needed it. And then, since my dad new Sara Chipps from Microsoft, he showed me Jewelbot one day when I got home from school and I've been on my own programming since then. >> John: You having fun? >> I am. >> What's the favorite thing about coding that you like? >> I love solving problems, and so solving problems is probably my favorite part in coding. I solve a lot of problems and inventions, tiny ones and just kind of figuring things out. >> Did you get all your friends involved? Did you spread it around to your friend group? >> I am getting some friends involved. In my YouTube channel I have someone I shared Jewel a lot with and showed how to code, and yeah. And at school, at my next school, I am going to create a Jewelbots club, and I'm hoping I can get a lot of people to join. >> So is it fun, is Jewelbot fun? I mean, how does it work, how does he Jewelbot work? So I wear a bracelet and then it lights up? So how does the code work? Is it an io sensor in the front end? How does it work? >> It works by Bluetooth. Do you mean friendship coding mode, or? >> Friendship coding mode. >> Okay, friendship coding mode. Yeah, you use Bluetooth for friendship coding mode. You pair Jewelbots together and it's pretty simple. You don't need a program, you can start right away without any program and it already has a default on it, so yeah. >> Do you have an agreement with Snapchat yet? Because that would be a great geofence feature, if I had like a Jewelbot with Snapchat integration. >> You can communicate by vibrates but there's not a Snapchat picture. >> Not yet, we'll make sure that we get that back and I'll get my daughter involved to jump in. How about the community aspect? I love the story, because what it does, it makes it fun. You don't want coding to be like eating spinach or, you know, taking out the trash or sweeping, you know, the floor up, you want to make it fun. Kids want to make it fun and gaming is key. When did it start clicking with you, Sara? You know, when did it start getting momentum? >> Yeah, well I think one thing that we realized, is that coding doesn't have to be a lonely activity, it doesn't have to be just one person sitting in a basement coding, it could be really anyone, and it's such a social thing, you know? All coders are self-taught and we all learn from each other, so having the ability to have a community that you can reach out to that are excited to help you and that kind of thing was a really important part of what we were building. >> So you guys were on stage... So tell about what happened here, 'cause folks didn't get to see and they can see it online after on a replay, you guys are out on stage, did you do like a demo? Tell us what happened on stage. >> We had a whole afternoon session that was focused on showcasing collaboration, young people coding, STEM. We had a group from our co-op, alumni come to the stage and talk about their experiences with Co.Lab, programming Raspberry Pis to take pictures. These are middle school girls, we've done programs with them all over the east coast. Then we had our CMO talk about his open-source experience. We had Women Open Source Awards, and then Sara and Ellie came out and told the audience about Jewelbots and it was just an opportunity to shine a light on their awesome project and to showcase young women doing great things. And showing women that they should have the confidence to code alongside men. >> Yeah, great program, how does someone get involved? How can someone get involved with Red Hat's Open Stories and your communities with Jewelbots. What can you guys share? Is there locations or a web app? Is there something you can get involved in? How does someone get involved? >> Well, Red Hat, we have seven Open Source Stories films, that people can go online and watch. But then yet, there's 90 of them for an open-source story, OpenSourceStories@RedHat.com is a way to contribute to that. But we're always thinking about new ideas, taking contributions and love to hear about these stories. >> Sara, how do I get involved in the Jewelbots? For anyone else watching who might be inspired by this awesomeness you guys have going on here. Great practice, I love how you're doing this. How do they get involved with what you're doing? >> So, if you have young girls in your life Jewelbots.com, Amazon.com, Target.com is all where you can get Jewelbots. If you don't and you know some people that do, a lot of people have started hosting events around Jewelbots, so if people in your office might have daughters and they might be interested in something like that, that's something that we help people do, as well. >> That's great. Ellie, what's your thoughts on all this? This celebrity status you have? Your YouTube followers are going to go through the roof now. >> Yeah, since yesterday I've had over 75 new followers. >> John: Wow. >> So yeah, it's amazing. >> Can she say the name of her YouTube channel? >> Of course. >> EllieGJewelbots. >> EllieGJewelbots, we're going to promote it, make sure it's on the screen, guys, great program. I'm so excited for you, that's amazing, don't stop. It gets better, more fun every time. When you build cool stuff it's magical. And tell all your friends. Great stuff, thanks so much for doing this. Great program, thanks for coming on. >> Thanks for having us. >> Thanks for having us. It's theCUBE, live here. A really inspirational inspirational moment here, getting everyone started at the young age really kind of opens the aperture of all people, all diversity, inclusion and diversity, really critical part of the community paying it forward. Of course, theCUBE's doing our part here, be back with more live coverage after this short break. (upbeat electronic music)

Red Hat Summit 2018 | Day 2 | PM Keynote


 

[Music] and y'all know that these [Music] ladies and gentlemen please take your seats and silence your cellphone's our program will begin shortly ladies and gentlemen please welcome Red Hat executive vice president and chief people officer dallisa Alexander an executive vice president and chief marketing officer Tim Layton [Music] hi everyone we're so excited to kick off this afternoon day 2 at the Red Hat summit we've got a stage full of stories about people making amazing contributions with open source well you know dallisa you and I both been coming to this event for a long long time so what keeps you coming back well you know the summit started as a tech conference an amazing tech conference but now it's expanded to be so much more this year I'm really thrilled that we're able to showcase the power of open source going way beyond the data center and beyond the cloud and I'm here also on a secret mission oh yes I'm here to make sure you don't make too many bad dad jokes so there's no such thing as a bad dad they're just dad jokes are supposed to be bad but I promise to keep it to my limit but I do have one okay I may appeal to the geeks in the audience okay so what do you call a serving tray full of empty beer cans yeah we container platform well that is your one just the one that's what I only got a budget of one all right well you know I have to say though in all seriousness I'm with you yeah I've been coming to the summit since its first one and I always love to hear what new directions people are scoring what ideas they're pursuing and the perspectives they bring and this afternoon for example you're gonna hear a host of different perspectives from a lot of voices you wouldn't often see on a technology mainstage in our industry and it's all part of our open source series live and I have to say there's been a lot of good buzz about this session all week and I'm truly honored and inspired to be able to introduce them all later this afternoon I can tell you over the course the last few weeks I've spent time with all of them and every single one of them is brilliant they're an innovator they're fearless and they will restore your faith in the next generation you know I can't wait to see all these stories all of that and we've got some special guests that are surprised in store for us you know one of the things that I love about the people that are coming on the stage today with us is that so many of them teach others how to code and they're also bringing more people that are very different in to our open-source communities helping our community is more innovative and impactful and speaking of innovative and impactful that's the purpose of our open brand project right that's right we're actually in the process of exploring a refresh of our mark and we'd really like your help as well because we're doing this all in the open we've we've been doing it already in the open and so please join us in our feedback zone booth at the summit to tell us what you think now it's probably obvious but I'm big into Red Hat swag I've got the shirt I've got my pen I've got the socks so this is really important to me personally especially that when my 15 year old daughter sees me in my full regalia she calls me adorable okay that joke was fed horrible as you're done it wasn't it wasn't like I got way more well Tim thanks for helping us at this stage for today it's time to get started with our first guest all right I'll be back soon thank you the people I'm about to bring on the stage are making outstanding contributions to open source in new and brave ways they are the winners of the 2018 women and open source Awards the women in open source awards was created to highlight the contributions that women are making to open source and to inspire new generations to join the movement our judges narrowed down the panel a very long list just ten finalists and then the community selected our two winners that were honoring today let's learn a little bit more about them [Music] a lot of people assume because of my work that I must be a programmer engineer when in fact I specifically chose and communications paths for my career but what's fascinating to me is I was able to combine my love of Communications and helping people with technology and interesting ways I'm able to not be bound by the assumptions that everybody has about what the technology can and should be doing and can really ask the question of what if it could be different I always knew I wanted to be in healthcare just because I feel like has the most impact in helping people a lot of what I've been working on is geared towards developing technology and the health space towards developing world one of the coolest things about open-source is bringing people together working with other people to accomplish amazing things there's so many different projects that you could get involved in you don't even have to be the smartest person to be able to make impact when you're actually developing for someone I think it's really important to understand the need when you're pushing innovation forward sometimes the cooler thing is not [Music] for both of us to have kind of a health care focus I think it's cool because so many people don't think about health care as being something that open-source can contribute to it took a while for it to even get to the stage where it is now where people can open-source develop on concepts and health and it's an untapped potential to moving the world for this award is really about highlighting the work of dozens of women and men in this open source community that have made this project possible so I'm excited for more people to kind of turn their open-source interest in healthcare exciting here is just so much [Music] I am so honored to be able to welcome to the stage some brilliant women and opensource first one of our esteemed judges Denise Dumas VP of software engineering at Red Hat she's going to come up and share her insights on the judging process Denise so you've been judging since the very beginning 2015 what does this judge this being a judge represents you what does the award mean to you you know every year it becomes more and more challenging to select the women an opensource winner because every year we get more nominees and the quality of the submissions well there are women involved in so many fabulous projects so the things that I look for are the things that I value an open source initiative using technology to solve real world problems a work ethic that includes sin patches and altruism and I think that you'll see that this year's nominees this year's winners really epitomize those qualities totally agree shall we bring them on let's bring them on let's welcome to the stage Zoe de gay and Dana Lewis [Music] [Applause] [Applause] [Music] alright let's take a seat [Applause] well you both have had an interesting path to open-source zuy you're a biomedical engineering student any of it you have a degree in public relations tell us what led to your involvement and open source yeah so coming to college I was new I was interested in science but I didn't want to be a medical doctor and I didn't want to get involved in wet lab research so through classes I was taking oh that's why I did biomedical engineering and through classes I was taking I found the classroom to be very dry and I didn't know how how can I apply what I'm learning and so I got involved in a lot of entrepreneurship on campus and through one of the projects I was asked to build a front end and I had no idea how to go about doing that and I had some basic rudimentary coding knowledge and what happened was I got and was digging deep and then found an open source library that was basically building a similar thing that I needed and that was where I learned about open source and I went from there now I'm really excited to be able to contribute to many communities and work on a variety of projects amazing contributions Dana tell us about your journey well I come from a non-traditional background but I was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at the age of 14 and over the next couple years got really frustrated with the limitations of my own diabetes devices but felt like I couldn't change them because that wasn't my job as a patient but it was actually through social media I discovered someone who had solved one of the problems that I had been found having which was getting date off my diabetes device and that's how I learned about open source was when he was willing to share his code with me so when we turned around and made this hybrid closed-loop artificial pancreas system it was a no brainer to make our work open source as well that's right absolutely and we see using the hash tag we are not waiting can you tell us about that yeah so this hash tag was created actually before I even discovered the open source diabetes world but I loved it because it really illustrates exactly the fact that we have this amazing technology in our hands in our pockets and we can solve some of our most common problems so yes you could wait but waiting is now a choice with open source we have the ability to solve some of our hardest problems even problems dealing with life and death that's great so zuy with the vaccine carrier system that you helped to build how were you able to identify the need and where did you build it yes so I think before you even build anything first need to understand what is the problem that you're trying to solve and that really was the case when starting this project I got to collaborate with engineers in Kampala Uganda and travel there and actually interview stakeholders in the medical field medical doctors as well as pharmaceutical companies and from there I really got to understand the health system there as well as what is how do vaccines enter the country and how can we solve this problem and that's how we came up with the solution for an IOT based vaccine carrier tracking system I think it's really important especially today when products might be flashy to also understand what is the need behind it and how do we solve problems with these products yeah yeah it's so interesting how both of you have this interest in health care Dana how do you see open-source playing a role in healthcare but first before you answer that tell us about your shirt so this shirt has the code of my artificial pancreas on it and I love it as an illustration of no thank you I love it as an illustration of how open-source is more than we think it is I've just been blown away by the contributions of people in my open-source communities and I think that that is what we should apply to all of healthcare there's a lot of tools and technologies that are solving real world problems and I think if we take what we know in technology and apply it to healthcare we'll solve a lot of problems more quickly but it really needs to be recognizing everything an open source it's the documentation it's the collaboration it's the problem-solving it's working together to take technologies that we didn't previously think we're applicable and finding new ways to apply it it's a great answer Sooey yeah I think especially where healthcare is related to people and open-source is the right way to collaborate with people all over the world especially in the project I've been working on we're looking at vaccines in Uganda but the same system can be applied in any other country and then you can look at cross countries health systems there and from there it becomes bigger and bigger and I think it's really important for people who have an idea and want to take it further to know that open-source is a way that you could actually take your idea further whether you have a technical background or not so yeah stories are amazing you're just an inspiration for everyone in open-source I want to thank you so much for joining us here today let's give another round of applause to our winners [Applause] [Music] you know the tagline for the award is honor celebrate inspire and I feel like we've been doing that today very very well and I know that so many people have been inspired today especially the next generation who go on to do things we can't even dream of yet [Music] I think collabs important because we need to make sure we get younger children interested in technology so that they understand the value of it but also that there are a lot of powerful women in technology and they can be one of them I hope after this experience maybe we'll get some engineers and some girls working our hot so cool right well we have some special guests convite for the club stage now I'd like to invite Tim back and also introduce Red Hat's own Jamie Chappell along with our collab students please welcome Gabby tenzen Sofia lyric Camila and a Volyn [Applause] you've been waiting for this moment for a while we're so excited hear all about your experiences but Jamie first tell us about collab sure so collab is red hats way of teaching students about the power of open source and collaboration we kicked off a little over a year ago in Boston and that was so successful that we decided to embark on an East Coast tour so in October we made stops at middle schools in New York DC and Raleigh and these amazing people over here are from that tour and this week they have gone from student to teacher so they've hosted two workshops where they have taught Red Hat summit attendees how to turn raspberry pies into digital cameras they assigned a poem song of the open road by Walt Whitman and they've been working at the open source stories booth helping to curate photos for an installation we're excited to finish up tomorrow so amazing and welcome future women in open source we want to know all about your experiences getting involved can you tell us tenzen tell us about something you've learned so during my experience with collab I learned many things but though however the ones that I valued the most were open source and women empowerment I just I was just so fascinated about how woman were creating and inventing things for the development of Technology which was really cool and I also learned about how open source OH was free and how anyone could access it and so I also learned that many people could you know add information to it so that other people could you learn from it and use it as well and during Monday's dinner I got this card saying that the world needed more people like you and I realized through my experience with collab that the world does not only need people like me but also everyone else to create great technology so ladies you know as you were working on your cameras and the coding was there a moment in time that you had an AHA experience and I'm really getting this and I can do this yes there was an aha moment because midway through I kind of figured out well this piece of the camera went this way and this piece of the camera did it go that way and I also figured out different features that were on the camera during the camera build I had to aha moments while I was making my camera the first one was during the process of making my camera where I realized I was doing something wrong and I had to collaborate with my peers in order to troubleshoot and we realize I was doing something wrong multiple times and I had to redo it and redo it but finally I felt accomplished because I finished something I worked hard on and my second aha moment was after I finished building my camera I just stared at it and I was in shock because I built something great and it was so such a nice feeling so we talked a lot about collaboration when we were at the lab tell us about how learning about collaboration in the lab is different than in school so in school collaboration is usually few and far between so when we went to collab it allowed us to develop new skills of creativity and joining our ideas with others to make something bigger and better and also allowed us to practice lots of cooperation an example of this is in my group everybody had a different problem with their pie camera and we had to use our different strengths to like help each other out and everybody ended up assembling and working PI camera great great awesome collaboration in collab and the school is very different because in collab we were more interactive more hands-on and we had to work closer together to achieve our own goals and collaboration isn't just about working together but also combining different ideas from different people to get a product that is so much better than some of its parts so girls one other interesting observation this actually may be for the benefit of the folks in our audience but out here we have represented literally hundreds and hundreds of companies all of whom are going to be actually looking for you to come to work for them after today we get first dibs that's right but um you know if you were to have a chance to speak to these companies and say what is it that they could do to help inspire you know your your friends and peers and get them excited about open source what would you say to them well I'm pretty sure we all have app store and I'm pretty sure we've all downloaded an app on that App Store well instead of us downloading app State well the computer companies or the phone companies they could give us the opportunity to program our own app and we could put it on the App Store great idea absolutely I've got to tell you I have a 15 year old daughter and I think you're all going to be an inspiration to her for the same absolutely so much so I see you brought some cameras why don't we go down and take a picture let's do it [Applause] all right I will play my very proud collab moderator role all right so one two three collab okay one two three [Applause] yeah so we're gonna let leave you and let you tell us more open source stories all right well thank you great job thank you all and enjoy the rest of your time at Summit so appreciate it thanks thank you everyone pretty awesome pretty awesome and I would just like to say they truly are fedorable that's just um so if you would like to learn more as you heard the girls say they're actually Manning our open-source stories booth at the summit you know please come down and say hello the stories you've seen thus far from our women and open-source winners as well as our co-op students are really bringing to life the theme of this year's summit the theme of ideas worth exploring and in that spirit what we'd like to do is explore another one today and that is how open-source concepts thrive and expand in the neverending organic way that they do much like the universe metaphor that you see us using here it's expanding in new perspectives and new ideas with voices beyond their traditional all starting to make open-source much bigger than what it was originally started as fact open-source goes back a long way long before actually the term existed in those early days you know in the early 80s and the like most open-source projects were sort of loosely organized collections of self-interested developers who are really trying to build low-cost more accessible replicas of commercial software yet here we are 2018 the world is completely different the open-source collaborative development model is the font of almost all original new innovation in software and they're driven from communities communities of innovation RedHat of course has been very fortunate to have been able to build an extraordinary company you know whose development model is harnessing these open-source innovations and in turning them into technologies consumable by companies even for their most mission-critical applications the theme for today though is we see open-source this open source style collaboration and innovation moving beyond just software this collaborative community innovation is starting to impact many facets of society and you're starting to see that even with the talks we've had already too and this explosion of community driven innovation you know is again akin to this universe metaphor it expands in all directions in a very organic way so for red hat you know being both beneficiaries of this approach and stewards of the open collaboration model we see it important for us to give voice to this broader view of open source stories now when we say open source in this context of course will meaning much more than just technology it's the style of collaboration the style of interaction it's the application of open source style methods to the innovation process it's all about accelerating innovation and expanding knowledge and this can be applied to a whole range of human endeavors of course in education as we just saw today on stage in agriculture in AI as the open source stories we shared at last year's summit in emerging industries like healthcare as we just saw in manufacturing even the arts all these are areas that are now starting to benefit from collaboration in driving innovation but do we see this potentially applying to almost any area of human endeavor and it expands again organically expanding existing communities with the addition of new voices and new participants catalyzing new communities and new innovations in new areas as we were talking about and even being applied inside organizations so that individual companies and teams can get the same collaborative innovation effects and most profound certainly in my perspective is so the limitless bounds that exist for how this open collaboration can start to impact some of humankind's most fundamental challenges we saw a couple of examples in fact with our women and open-source winners you know that's amazing but it also potentially is just the tip of the iceberg so we think it's important that these ideas you know as they continue to expand our best told through storytelling because it's a way that you can embrace them and find your own inspirations and that's fundamentally the vision behind our open-source stories and it's all about you know building on what's come before you know the term we use often is stay the shoulders are giants for a lot of the young people that you've seen on this stage and you're about to see on this stage you all are those giants you're the reason and an hour appears around the world are the reasons that open-source continues to expand for them you are those giants the other thing is we all particularly in this room those of us have been around open-source we have an open-source story of our own you know how were you introduced the power of open-source how did you engage a community who inspired you to participate those are all interesting elements of our personal open-source stories and in most cases each of them are punctuated by you here my question to the girls on stage an aha moment or aha moments you know that that moment of realization that enlightens you and causes you to think differently and to illustrate I'm going to spend just a few minutes sharing my open-source story for for one fundamental reason I've been in this industry for 38 years I am a living witness to the entire life of open-source going back to the early 80s I've been doing this in the open-source corner of the industry since the beginning if you've listened to Sirhan's command-line heroes podcasts my personal open story will actually be quite familiar with you because my arc is the same as the first several podcast as she talked about I'm sort of a walking history lesson in fact of open source I wound up at most of the defining moments that should have changed how we did this not that I was particularly part of the catalyst I was just there you know sort of like the Forrest Gump of open-source I was at all these historical things but I was never really sure how it went up there but it sure was interesting so with that as a little bit of context I'm just gonna share my aha moment how did I come to be you know a 59 year old in this industry for 38 years totally passionate about not just open source driving software innovation but what open source collaboration can do for Humanity so in my experience I had three aha moments I just like to share with you the first was in the early 80s and it was when I was introduced to the UNIX operating system and by the way if you have a ha moment in the 80s this is what it looks like so 1982 mustache 19 where were you 2018 beard that took a long time to do all right so as I said my first aha moment was about the technology itself in those early days of the 80s I became a product manager and what at the time was digital equipment corporation's workstation group and I was immediately drawn to UNIX I mean certainly these this is the early UNIX workstation so the user interface was cool but what I really loved was the ability to do interactive programming via the shell but by a--basically the command line and because it was my day job to help figure out where we took these technologies I was able to both work and learn and play all from the same platform so that alone was was really cool it was a very accessible platform the other thing that was interesting about UNIX is it was built with networking and and engagement in mind had its own networking stack built in tcp/ip of course and actually built in a set of services for those who've been around for a while think back to things like news groups and email lists those were the first enablers for cross internet collaboration and that was really the the elements that really spoke to me he said AHA to me that you know this technology is accessible and it lets people engage so that was my first aha moment my second aha moment came a little bit later at this point I was an executive actually running Digital Equipment Corporation UNIX systems division and it was at a time where the UNIX wars were raging right all these companies we all compartmentalized Trump those of the community and in the end it became an existential threat to the platform itself and we came to the point where we realized we needed to actually do something we needed to get ahead of this or UNIX would be doomed the particular way we came together was something called cozy but most importantly the the technique we learned was right under our noses and it was in the area of distributed computing distributed client-server computing inherently heterogenous and all these same companies that were fierce competitors at the operating system level were collaborating incredibly well around defining the generation of client-server and distributed computing technologies and it was all being done in open source under actually a BSD license initially and Microsoft was a participant Microsoft joined the open group which was the converged standards body that was driving this and they participated to ensure there was interoperability with Windows and and.net at the time now it's no spoiler alert that UNIX lost right we did but two really important things came out of that that sort of formed the basis of my second aha moment the first is as an industry we were learning how to collaborate right we were leveraging open source licenses we realized that you know these complex technologies are best done together and that was a huge epiphany for the industry at that time and the second of course is that event is what opened the door for Linux to actually solve that problem so my second aha was all about the open collaboration model works now at this point to be perfectly candidates late 1998 well we've been acquired by compacts when I'm doing the basically same role at Compaq and I really had embraced what the potential impact of this was going to be to the industry Linux was gaining traction there were a lot of open source projects emerging in distributed computing in other areas so it was pretty clear to me that the in business impact was going to be significant and and that register for me but there was seem to be a lot more to it that I hadn't really dropped yet and that's when I had my third aha moment and that was about the passion of open-source advocates the people so you know at this time I'm running a big UNIX group but we had a lot of those employees who were incredibly passionate about about Linux and open source they're actively participating so outside of working a lot of things and they were lobbying more and more for the leadership to embrace open source more directly and I have to say their passion was contagious and it eventually spread to me you know they were they were the catalyst for my personal passion and it also led me to rethink what it is we needed to go do and that's a passion that I carry forward to this day the one driven by the people and I'll tell you some interesting things many of those folks that were with us at Compaq at the time have gone on to be icons and leaders in open-source today and many of them actually are involved with with Red Hat so I'll give you a couple of names that some of whom you will know so John and Mad Dog Hall work for me at the time he was the person who wrote the first edition of Linux for dummies he did that on his own time when he was working for us he he coined he was part of the small team that coined the term open source' some other on that team that inspired me Brian Stevens and Tim Burke who wrote the first version to rent out Enterprise Linux actually they did that in Tim Burke's garage and cost Tim's still with Red Hat today two other people you've already seen him on stage today Denise Dumas and Marko bill Peter so it was those people that I was fortunate enough to work with early on who had passion for open-source and much like me they carry it forward to this day so the punchline there is they ultimately convinced us to you know embrace open-source aggressively in our strategy and one of the interesting things that we did as a company we made an equity investment in Red Hat pre-ipo and a little funny sidebar here I had to present this proposal to the compact board on investing in Red Hat which was at that time losing money hand over fist and they said well Tim how you think they're gonna make money selling free software and I said well you know I don't really know but their customers seem to love them and we need to do this and they approve the investment on the spot so you know how high do your faith and now here we are at a three billion dollar run rate of this company pretty extraordinary so from me the third and final ha was the passion of the people in the way it was contagious so so my journey my curiosity led me first to open source and then to Red Hat and it's been you know the devotion of my career for over the last thirty years and you know I think of myself as pretty literate when it comes to open source and software but I'd be the first one to admit I would have never envisioned the extent to which open source style collaboration is now being brought to bear on some of the most interesting challenges in society so the broader realization is that open source and open can really unlock the world's potential when applied in the collaborative innovative way so what about you you know you many of you particular those have been around for a while you probably have an open source story of your own for those that maybe don't or they're new to open source are new to Red Hat your open source story may be a single inspiration away it may happen here at the summit we certainly hope so it's how we build the summit to engage you you may actually find it on this stage when I bring up some of the people who are about to follow me but this is why we tell open-source stories and open source stories live so each of you hopefully has a chance to think about you know your story and how it relates over source so please take advantage of all the things that are here at the summit and and find your inspiration if you if you haven't already so next thing is you know in a spirit of our telling open source stories today we're introducing our new documentary film the science of collective discovery it's really about citizen scientists using open systems to do serious science in their backyards and environmental areas and the like we're going to preview that I'm gonna prove it preview it today and then please come see it tonight later on when we preview the whole video so let's take a look I may not have a technical scientific background but I have one thing that the scientists don't have which is I know my backyard so conventional science happens outside of public view so it's kind of in this black box so most are up in the ivory tower and what's exciting about citizen science is that it brings it out into the open we as an environmental community are engaging with the physical world every day and you need tools to do that we needed to democratize that technology we need to make it lightweight we need to make it low-cost we needed to make it open source so that we could put that technology in the hands of everyday people so they go out and make those measurements where they live and where they breathe when you first hear about an environmental organization you mostly hear about planting trees gardens things like that you don't really think about things that are really going to affect you hey we're the air be more they'd hold it in their hand making sure not to cover the intake or the exhaust I just stand here we look at the world with forensic eyes and then we build what you can't see so the approach that we're really centered on puts humans and real issues at the center of the work and I think that's the really at the core of what open source is social value that underlies all of it it really refers to sort of the rights and responsibilities that anyone on the planet has to participate in making new discoveries so really awesome and a great story and you know please come enjoy the full video so now let's get on with our open stories live speakers you're going to really love the rest of the afternoon we have three keynotes and a demo built in and I can tell you without exaggeration that when you see and hear from the young people we're about to bring forward you know it's truly inspirational and it's gonna restore totally your enthusiasm for the future because you're gonna see some of the future leaders so please enjoy our open source stories live presentation is coming and I'll be back to join you in a little bit thanks very much please welcome code newbie founder Saran yep Eric good afternoon how y'all doing today oh that was pretty weak I think you could do better than that how y'all doing today wonderful much better I'm Saran I am the founder of code newbie we have the most supportive community of programmers and people learning to code this is my very first Red Hat summits I'm super pumped super excited to be here today I'm gonna give you a talk and I'm going to share with you the key to coding progress yes and in order to do that I'm gonna have to tell you a story so two years ago I was sitting in my hotel room and I was preparing for a big talk the next morning and usually the night before I give a big talk I'm super nervous I'm anxious I'm nauseous I'm wondering why I keep doing this to myself all the speakers backstage know exactly what I'm what I'm talking about and the night before my mom knows this so she almost always calls just to check in to see how I'm doing to see how I'm feeling and she called about midnight the night before and she said how are you how are you doing are you ready and I said you know what this time I feel really good I feel confident I think I'm gonna do a great job and the reason was because two months ago I'd already given that talk in fact just a few days prior they had published the video of that talk on YouTube and I got some really really good positive feedback I got feedback from emails and DMS and Twitter and I said man I know people really like this it's gonna be great in fact that video was the most viewed video of that conference and I said to my office said you know what let's see how many people loved my talk and still the good news is that 14 people liked it and a lot more people didn't and I saw this 8 hours before I'm supposed to give that exact same talk and I said mom I gotta call you back do you like how I did that to hang up the phone as if that's how cellphones work yeah and so I looked at this and I said oh my goodness clearly there's a huge disconnect I thought they were really liked they were I thought they were into it and this showed me that something was wrong what do you do what do you do when you're about to give that same talk in 8 hours how do you begin finding out what the problem is so you can fix it I have an idea let's read the comments you got to believe you gotta have some optimism come on I said let's read the comments because I'm sure we'll find some helpful feedback some constructive criticism some insights to help me figure out how to make this talk great so that didn't happen but I did find some really colorful language and some very creative ideas of what I could do with myself now there are some kids in the audience so I will not grace you with these comments but there was this one comment that did a really great job of capturing the sentiment of what everyone else was saying I can only show you the first part because the rest is not very family-friendly but it reads like this how do you talk about coding and not fake societal issues see the thing about that talk is it wasn't just a code talk it was a code and talk is about code and something else that talked touched on code and social justice I talked a lot about how the things that we build the way we build them affect real people and their problems and their struggles and that was absolutely not okay not okay we talk about code and code only not the social justice stuff it also talked about code and diversity yeah I think we all know the diversity is really about lowering the bar it forces us to talk about people and their issues and their problems in their history and we just don't do that okay absolutely inappropriate when it comes to a Tech Talk That Talk touched on code and feelings and feelings are squishy they're messy they're icky and a lot of us feel uncomfortable with feelings feelings have no place in technology no place in code we want to talk about code and code I want you to show me that API and when you show me that new framework that new tool that's gonna solve my problems that's all I care about I want to talk about code and give me some more code with it now I host a podcast called command line heroes it's an original podcast from Red Hat super excited about it if you haven't checked it out and totally should and what I love about this show as we talk about these really important moments and open swords these inflection points moments where we see progress we move forward and what I realized looking back at those episodes is all of those episodes have a code and something let's look at a few of those the first two episodes focused on the history of operating systems as a two-part episode part 1 and part 2 and there's lots of different ways we can talk about operating systems for these two episodes we started by talking about Windows and Mac OS and how these were two very powerful very popular operating systems but a lot of a lot of developers were frustrated with them they were closed you couldn't see inside you can see what it was doing and I the developer want to know what it's doing on my machine so we kind of had a little bit of a war one such developer who was very frustrated said I'm gonna go off and do my own thing my name is Linus this thing is Linux and I'm gonna rally all these other developers all these other people from all over the old to come together and build this new thing with me that is a code and moment in that case it was code and frustration it was a team of developers a world of developers literally old world of developers who said I'm frustrated I'm fed up I want something different and I'm gonna do something about it and what's really beautiful about frustration is it the sign of passion we're frustrated because we care because we care so much we love so deeply then we want to do something better next episode is the agile revolution this one was episode three now the agile revolution is a very very important moment in open-source and technology in general and this was in response to the way that we used to create products we used to give this huge stack of specs all these docs from the higher-ups and we'd take it and we go to our little corner and we lightly code and build and then a year with Pastor here's a pass a few years have passed and we'd finally burst forth with this new product and hope that users liked it and loved it and used it and I know something else will do that today it's okay no judgment now sometimes that worked and a lot of times it didn't but whether or not it actually worked it hurt it was painful these developers not enjoy this process so what happened a dozen developers got together and literally went off into their own and created something called the agile manifesto now this was another code and moment here it's code and anger these developers were so angry that they literally left civilization went off into a mountain to write the agile manifesto and what I love about this example is these developers did not work at the same company we're not on the same team they knew each other from different conferences and such but they really came from different survive and they agreed that they were so angry they were going to literally rewrite the way we created products next as an example DevOps tear down the wall this one is Episode four now this is a bit different because we're not talking about a piece of technology or even the way we code here we're talking about the way we work together the way that we collaborate and here we have our operations folks and our developers and we've created this new kind of weird place thing called DevOps and DevOps is interesting because we've gotten to a point where we have new tools new toys so that our developers can do a lot of the stuff that only the operations folks used to be able to do that thing that took days weeks months to set up I can do it with a slider it's kind of scary I can do it with a few buttons and here we have another code and moment and here that blink is fear for two reasons the operations focus is looking over the developer folks and thinking that was my job I used to be able to do that am I still valuable do I have a place in this future do I need to retrain there's also another fear which is those developers know what they're doing do they understand the security implications they appreciate how hard it is or something to scale and how to do that properly and I'm really interested in excited to see where we go with that where we take that emotion if we look at all of season one of the podcast we see that there's always a code and whether it's a code and frustration a code and anger or a code and fear it always boils down to code and feelings feelings are powerful in almost every single episode we see that that movement forward that progress is tied back to some type of Oshin and for a lot of us this is uncomfortable feelings make us feel weird and a lot of those YouTube commenters definitely do not like this whole feeling stuff don't be like those YouTube commenters there's one thing you take away from this whole talk let it be that don't be like these YouTube commenters feelings are incredibly powerful so the next time that you're working on a project you're having a conversation about a piece of software or a new piece of technology and you start to get it worked up you get angry you get frustrated maybe you get worried you get anxious you get scared I hope you recognize that feeling as a source of energy I hope you take that energy and you help us move forward I would take that to create the next inflection point that next step in the right direction feelings are your superpowers and I hope you use your powers for good thank you so much [Applause] please welcome jewel-box chief technology officer Sara Chipps [Music] Wow there's a lot of you out here how's it going I know there's a lot of you East Coasters here as well and I'm still catching up on that sleep so I hope you guys are having a great experience also my name is Sarah I'm here from New York I have been a software developer for 17 years it's longer than some of the people on stage today I've been alive big thanks to the folks at Red Hat for letting us come and tell you a little bit about jewel box so without further ado I'm gonna do exactly that okay so today we're gonna do a few things first I'm gonna tell you why we built jewel BOTS and why we think it's a really important technology I'm gonna show you some amazing magic and then we're gonna have one of the jewel bus experts come as a special guest and talk to you more about the deep technology behind what we're building so show hands in the audience who here was under 18 years old when they started coding it's hard for me to see you guys yep look around I'd have to say at least 50% of you have your hands up all right keep your hand up if you were under 15 when you started coding I think more hands up just what is it I don't know how that mouth works but awesome okay great yeah a little of I think about half of you half of you have your hands up that's really neat I've done a bunch of informal polls on the internet about this I found that probably about two-thirds of professional coders were under 18 when they started coding I myself was 11 I was a homeschooled kid so a little weird I'm part of the generation and some of you maybe as well is the reason we became coders is because we were lonely not because we made a lot of money so I was 11 this is before the internet was a thing and we had these things called BBS's and you would call up someone else's computer in your town and you would hang out with people and chat with them and play role-playing games with them it didn't have to be your town but if it wasn't your mom would yell at you for a long distance fees and I got really excited about computers and coding because of the community that I found online okay so this is sometimes the most controversial part of this presentation I promised you that they dominate our lives in many ways even if you don't even if you don't even know a 9 to 14 year old girl even if you just see them on the street sometimes they are deciding what you and I do on a regular basis hear me out for a second here so who here knows who this guy is okay you don't have to raise your hands but I think most people know who this guy is right so this guy used to be this guy and then teenage girls were like I think this guy has some talent to him I think that he's got a future and now he's a huge celebrity today what about this guy just got his first Oscar you know just kind of starting out well this guy used to be this guy and I'm proud to tell you that I am one of the many girls that discovered him and decided this guy has a future all right raise your hand if you listen to Taylor Swift just kidding I won't make you do it but awesome that's great so Taylor Swift we listen to Taylor Swift because these girls discovered Taylor Swift it wasn't a 35 year old that was like this Taylor Swift is pretty neat no one cares what we think but even bigger than that these huge unicorns that all of us some of us work for some of us wish we invented these were discovered by young teenage girls no one is checking to see what apps were using they're finding new communities in these thin in these platforms and saying this is how I want to commune with my friends things like Instagram snapchat and musically all start with this demographic and then we get our cues from them if you don't know what musically is I promise you ask your nearest 9 to 14 year old friend if you don't do that you'll hear about it in a few years but this demographic their futures are all at risk everyone here knows how much the field of software development is growing and how important technical literacy is to the future of our youth however just 18% of computer science graduates are girls just 19% of AP computer science test takers and just 15% of Google's tech force identify as female so we decided to do something about that we were inspired by platforms like MySpace and Geocities things like Neopets and minecraft all places where kids find something they love and they're like okay to make this better all I have to do is learn how to code I can totally do that and so we wanted to do that so we talked to 200 girls we went to schools we sat down with them and we were like what makes you tick what are you excited about and what we heard from them over and over again is their friends their friends and their community are pivotal to them and this time in their lives so when we started talking to them about a smart friendship bracelet that's when they started really freaking out so we built Jewel BOTS and Jewel BOTS has an active online community where girls can work together share code that they've built and learn from each other help each other troubleshoot sometimes the way they work is when you are near your friends your bracelets light up the same color and you can use them to send secret messages to each other and you can also code them so you can say things like when all my swimming friends are together in the same room all of our bracelets should go rainbow colors which is really fun you can even build games jewel BOTS started shipping about a year and a half ago about after a lot of work and we are about to ship our 12,000 jewel bot we're in 38 city sorry 38 countries and we're just getting started okay so now it's time for the magic and I have an important question does anyone here want to be my friend pick me all right someone today Gary oh I don't have many friends that's awesome I'm so glad that we'll be friends okay it's awesome so we just need to pair our jewel BA okay okay and in order to do that we're gonna hold the magic button in the middle down for two seconds so one locomotive two locomotive great and then we got a white flashing I'm gonna do yours again I did it wrong locomotive two locomotive it's we're adults we can't do it okay it's a good that are smart alright so now we get to pick our friendship color I'm gonna pick red hat red does that work for you sure okay great so now I just picked a red hat red and my jewel bot is saying alright Tim's jewel bot do you want to be my friend and imageable about it's like I'm thinking about it I think so okay now we're ready okay great so now we're red friends when we're together our bracelets are going to be red and I will send you a secret message when it's time for you to come out and trip and introduce the next guest awesome well thank you so much thank you tailor gun so glad we could be friends and if only people would start following me on Twitter it'd be a great day awesome alright so now you can see the not so technical part of jewel box they use bluetooth to sense when your friends are nearby so they would work in about a 30 meter hundred foot range but to tell you about the actual technology part I'm going to introduce is someone much more qualified than I am so Ellie is one of our jewel box ambassadors she's an amazing YouTube channel that I would please ask you to check out and subscribe she's le G Joel BOTS on YouTube she's an amazing coder and I'm really excited to introduce you today to Ellie Galloway come on out Ellie [Applause] hello my name is le gallais I'm gonna show you how I got coding and then show you some coding in action I first started coding at a6 when my dad helped me code a game soon after I program form a code for Minecraft then my dad had shown me jo bot I keep coding because it helps people for instance for instance you could code auto crack to make it a lot smarter so it can help make people stay run faster but what about something more serious what if you could help answer 911 calls and give alerts before we start I have three main steps to share with you I often use these steps to encoding my jaw bot and continue to use some of these now step one read the instructions and in other words this means for Jabba to memorize the colors and positions a way to memorize these because it's tricky is to remember all the colors and positions you O type will be capital and remember that the positions are either short for north west south west north east and south east step to learn the basic codes when it comes to coding you need to work your way up step 3 discover feel free to discover once you mastered everything now let's get to coding let's use or let's first use combining lights so under void loop I'm going to put LED turn on single s/w and blue and before we make sure that this works we got to put LED LED okay now let's type this again LED dot turn on single now let's do SW green now we have our first sketch so let's explain what this means led LED is a function that to control the LED lights LED turn on single SW blue tells that SW light to turn blue and green flashes so quickly with the blue it creates aqua now let's do another code lets you i'm going to use a more advanced command to make a custom color using RGB let's use a soft pink using 255 105 and 180 now let's type this in the button press function so let's do LED led LED dot set light and now we can do let's do position 3 255 105 and 180 now let's explain what this means the first one stands for the position the three others stand for red green and blue our GPS can only go up to 255 but there are 256 levels but if you count the first one as zero then get 255 so let's first before we move on let's show how this works so this is it before and now let's turn it on to see how our aqua turned out now let's see how our RGB light turned out so we are looking for a soft pink so let's see how it looks think about how much the code you write can help people all around the world these are ideas are just the beginning of opening a new world in technology a fresh start is right around the corner I hope this helped you learn a little bit about coding and even made you want to try it out for yourself thank you [Applause] alright alright alright I need your help for a second guys alright one second really really fascinating we're short on time today is Ellie's 11th birthday and I think we should give her the biggest present that she's gonna get today and it's something none of us have experienced and that is thousands of people saying happy birthday Elliott wants so when I say three can I get a happy birthday Elly one two three happy birthday Elly great job that's the best part of my job okay so those are that's two of us we're just getting started this numbers out Dana would almost shipped 12,000 jewel BOTS and what I'm really excited to tell you about is that 44% of our users don't just play with their jewel bots they code them and they're coding C do you even code C I don't know that you do but we have 8 to 14 year olds coding C for their jewel box we also have hundreds of events where kids come and they learn how to code for the first time here's how you can help we're open source so check out our github get involved our communities online you can see the different features that people's are asking for we're also doing events all over the world a lot of people are hosting them at their companies if you're interested in doing so reach out to us thank you so much for coming and learning about jewel box today enjoy the rest of your summit [Music] ladies and gentlemen please welcome hacker femme au founder Femi who Bois de Kunz [Music] good afternoon red hat summit 2018 i'm femi holiday combs founder of hacker femme Oh I started coding when I was 8 when I was 9 I set up South London raspberry jam through crowdfunding to share my passion for coding with other young people who might not otherwise be exposed to tech since then I've run hundreds of coding and robot workshops across the UK and globally in 2017 I was awarded an inaugural legacy Diana award by their Royal Highnesses Prince William and Prince Harry my service and community we welcome young people who have autism or like me tract syndrome because coding linked me up to a wider community of like-minded people and I'm trying to do the same for those who might also benefit from this I also deliver workshops to corporate companies and public organizations whilst feeding back ideas and resources into my community work we like to cascade our knowledge and experience to other young coders so that they can benefit too we're learning new tech every day we're starting to use github to document and manage our coding projects we've no dread we're using the terminal and beginning to really appreciate Linux as we explore cybersecurity and blockchain it's been quite a journey from South London to the world-famous Tate Modern museum to Bangladesh to this my first trip to the States and soon to China where I hope to translate my microwave workshops into Mandarin on this journey I'm noticed it is increasingly important for young coders to have collaborative and community led initiatives and enterprise and career ready skills so my vision now is to run monthly meetups and in collaboration with business partners help a hundred young disadvantaged people to get jobs in the digital services in fact out of all the lessons I've learned from teaching young coders they all have one thing in common the power of open source and the importance of developing community and today I want to talk about three of those lessons the value of reaching out and collaborating the importance of partnering event price and the ability to self organize and persist which translated into English means having a can-do attitude getting stuff done when you reach out when you show curiosity you realize you're not alone in this diverse community no matter who you are and where you're from from coding with minecraft to meeting other young people with jams I found there are people like me doing things I like doing I get to connect with them that's where open-source comes to the fourth second the open source community is so vast then it crosses continents it's so immersed perspectives that it can take you to amazing places out of space even that's my code running on the International Space Station's Columbus module let's take a lesson and playing was an audio representation for the frequencies recorded in space my team developed Python code to measure and store frequency readings from the space station and that was down linked back to earth to my email box Thomas who's 10 developed an audio file using audacity and importing it back into Python how cool is that Trulli collaboration can take you places you never thought possible because that's how the community works when you throw a dilemma a problem a tip the open source community comes back with answers when you give the community gives back tenfold that's how open source expands but in that vast starscape how do you know what to focus on there are so many problems to solve where do I start your world enterprice enterprise software is very good at solving problems what's the big problem how about helping the next generation be ready for the future I want to do more for the young coding community so I'm developing entrepreneurial business links to get that done this is a way to promote pathways to deal with future business problems whether in FinTech healthcare or supply chains a meeting the skill shortage it is a case for emerging in it's a case for investing in emerging communities and young change enablers throwing a wider net equates to being fully inclusive with a good representation of diversity you know under the shadow of the iconic show back in London there are pockets of deprivation where young people can't even get a job in a supermarket many of them are interested in tech in some way so my goal for the next three years is to encourage young people to become an active part of the coding community with open source we have the keys to unlock the potential for future innovation and technological development with young coders we have the people who have to face these problems working on them now troubleshooting being creative connecting with each other finding a community discovering their strengths along the way for me after running workshops in the community for a number of years when I returned from introducing coding to young street kids in Bangladesh I realized I had skills and experience so I set up my business hacker Famicom my first monetized fehmi's coding boot camp at Rice London Barclays Bank it was a sellout and a few weeks later shows my second I haven't looked back since but it works the opposite way - all the money raised enable me to buy robots for my community events and I was able to cascade my end price knowledge across to other young coders - when you focus on business problems you get active enthusiastic support from enterprise and then you can take on anything the support is great and we have tons of ideas but what does it really take to execute on those ideas to get things done can-do attitudes what open source needs you've seen it all this week we're all explorers ideator z' thinkers and doers open source needs people who can make the ideas happen get out there and see them through like I did setting up Safford and raspberry jam as an inclusive space to collaborate and learn together and that that led to organizing the young coders conference this was about organizing our own two-day event for our partners in industry to show they value young people and wanted to invest in our growth it doesn't stop there oh nice now I'm setting up monthly coding meetups and looking at ways to help other young people to access job opportunities in end price and digital services the underlying ethos remains the same in all I do promoting young people with the desire to explore collaborative problem-solving when coding digital making and building enterprise you fled having the confidence to define our journey and pathways always being inclusive always encouraging innovation and creativity being doers does more than get projects done makes us a pioneering force in the community dreaming and doing is how we will make exponential leaps my generation is standing on the shoulders of giants you the open-source pioneers and the technology you will built so I'd love to hear about your experiences who brought you into the open-source community who taught you as we go to upscale our efforts we encounter difficulties have you and how did you overcome them please do come to talk to me I'll be in the open-source stories booth both today and tomorrow giving workshops or visit the Red Hat page of my website hack Famicom I really value your insights in conclusion I'd like I'd like to ask you to challenge yourself you can do this by supporting young coders find the crowdfunding campaign kick-start their ideas into reality I'm proof that it works it's so awesome to be an active part of the next exponential leap together thank you [Applause] so unbelievable huh you know he reminds me of be at that age not even close and I can tell you I've spent a lot of time with Femi and his mom grace I mean what you see is what you get I mean he's incredibly passionate committed and all that stuff he's doing that long list of things he's doing he's going to do so hopefully today you get a sense of what's coming in the next generation the amazing things that people are doing with collaboration I'd also like to thank in addition to femi I'd like to thank Sauron Sarah and Ellie for equally compelling talks around the open source stories and again as I mentioned before any one of you can have an open source story that can be up here inspiring others and that's really our goal in telling these stories and giving voice to the things that you've seen today absolutely extraordinary things are happening out there and I encourage you to take every advantage you can hear this week and as is our theme for the summit please keep exploring thank you very much [Applause]

Red Hat Summit 2018 | Day 2 | AM Keynote


 

[Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] that will be successful in the 21st century [Music] being open is really important because it comes with a lot of trust the open-source community now has matured so much and that contribution from the community is really driving innovation [Music] but what's really exciting is the change that we've seen in our teams not only the way they collaborate but the way they operate in the way they work [Music] I think idea is everything ideas can change the way you see things open-source is more than a license it's actually a way of operating [Music] ladies and gentlemen please welcome Red Hat president and chief executive officer Jim Whitehurst [Music] all right well welcome to day two at the Red Hat summit I'm amazed to see this many people here at 8:30 in the morning given the number of people I saw pretty late last night out and about so thank you for being here and have to give a shout out speaking of power participation that DJ is was Mike Walker who is our global director of open innovation labs so really enjoyed that this morning was great to have him doing that so hey so day one yesterday we had some phenomenal announcements both around Red Hat products and things that we're doing as well as some great partner announcements which we found exciting I hope they were interesting to you and I hope you had a chance to learn a little more about that and enjoy the breakout sessions that we had yesterday so yesterday was a lot about the what with these announcements and partnerships today I wanted to spin this morning talking a little bit more about the how right how do we actually survive and thrive in this digitally transformed world and to some extent the easy parts identifying the problem we all know that we have to be able to move more quickly we all know that we have to be able to react to change faster and we all know that we need to innovate more effectively all right so the problem is easy but how do you actually go about solving that right the problem is that's not a product that you can buy off the shelf right it is a capability that you have to build and certainly it's technology enabled but it's also depends on process culture a whole bunch of things to figure out how we actually do that and the answer is likely to be different in different organizations with different objective functions and different starting points right so this is a challenge that we all need to feel our way to an answer on and so I want to spend some time today talking about what we've seen in the market and how people are working to address that and it's one of the reasons that the summit this year the theme is ideas worth it lorring to take us back on a little history lesson so two years ago here at Moscone the theme of the summit was the power of participation and then I talked a lot about the power of groups of people working together and participating are able to solve problems much more quickly and much more effectively than individuals or even individual organizations working by themselves and some of the largest problems that we face in technology but more broadly in the world will ultimately only be solved if we effectively participate and work together then last year the theme of the summit was the impact of the individual and we took this concept of participation a bit further and we talked about how participation has to be active right it's a this isn't something where you can be passive that you can sit back you have to be involved because the problem in a more participative type community is that there is no road map right you can't sit back and wait for an edict on high or some central planning or some central authority to tell you what to do you have to take initiative you have to get involved right this is a active participation sport now one of the things that I talked about as part of that was that planning was dead and it was kind of a key my I think my keynote was actually titled planning is dead and the concept was that in a world that's less knowable when we're solving problems in a more organic bottom-up way our ability to effectively plan into the future it's much less than it was in the past and this idea that you're gonna be able to plan for success and then build to it it really is being replaced by a more bottom-up participative approach now aside from my whole strategic planning team kind of being up in arms saying what are you saying planning is dead I have multiple times had people say to me well I get that point but I still need to prepare for the future how do I prepare my organization for the future isn't that planning and so I wanted to spend a couple minutes talk a little more detail about what I meant by that but importantly taking our own advice we spent a lot of time this past year looking around at what our customers are doing because what a better place to learn then from large companies and small companies around the world information technology organizations having to work to solve these problems for their organizations and so our ability to learn from each other take the power of participation an individual initiative that people and organizations have taken there are just so many great learnings this year that I want to get a chance to share I also thought rather than listening to me do that that we could actually highlight some of the people who are doing this and so I do want to spend about five minutes kind of contextualizing what we're going to go through over the next hour or so and some of the lessons learned but then we want to share some real-world stories of how organizations are attacking some of these problems under this how do we be successful in a world of constant change in uncertainty so just going back a little bit more to last year talking about planning was dead when I said planning it's kind of a planning writ large and so that's if you think about the way traditional organizations work to solve problems and ultimately execute you start off planning so what's a position you want to get to in X years and whether that's a competitive strategy in a position of competitive advantage or a certain position you want an organizational function to reach you kind of lay out a plan to get there you then typically a senior leaders or a planning team prescribes the sets of activities and the organization structure and the other components required to get there and then ultimately execution is about driving compliance against that plan and you look at you say well that's all logical right we plan for something we then figure out how we're gonna get there we go execute to get there and you know in a traditional world that was easy and still some of this makes sense I don't say throw out all of this but you have to recognize in a more uncertain volatile world where you can be blindsided by orthogonal competitors coming in and you the term uber eyes you have to recognize that you can't always plan or know what the future is and so if you don't well then what replaces the traditional model or certainly how do you augment the traditional model to be successful in a world that you knows ambiguous well what we've heard from customers and what you'll see examples of this through the course of this morning planning is can be replaced by configuring so you can configure for a constant rate of change without necessarily having to know what that change is this idea of prescription of here's the activities people need to perform and let's lay these out very very crisply job descriptions what organizations are going to do can be replaced by a greater degree of enablement right so this idea of how do you enable people with the knowledge and things that they need to be able to make the right decisions and then ultimately this idea of execution as compliance can be replaced by a greater level of engagement of people across the organization to ultimately be able to react at a faster speed to the changes that happen so just double clicking in each of those for a couple minutes so what I mean by configure for constant change so again we don't know exactly what the change is going to be but we know it's going to happen and last year I talked a little bit about a process solution to that problem I called it that you have to try learn modify and what that model try learn modify was for anybody in the app dev space it was basically taking the principles of agile and DevOps and applying those more broadly to business processes in technology organizations and ultimately organizations broadly this idea of you don't have to know what your ultimate destination is but you can try and experiment you can learn from those things and you can move forward and so that I do think in technology organizations we've seen tremendous progress even over the last year as organizations are adopting agile endeavor and so that still continues to be I think a great way for people to to configure their processes for change but this year we've seen some great examples of organizations taking a different tack to that problem and that's literally building modularity into their structures themselves right actually building the idea that change is going to happen into how you're laying out your technology architectures right we've all seen the reverse of that when you build these optimized systems for you know kind of one environment you kind of flip over two years later what was the optimized system it's now called a legacy system that needs to be migrated that's an optimized system that now has to be moved to a new environment because the world has changed so again you'll see a great example of that in a few minutes here on stage next this concept of enabled double-clicking on that a little bit so much of what we've done in technology over the past few years has been around automation how do we actually replace things that people were doing with technology or augmenting what people are doing with technology and that's incredibly important and that's work that can continue to go forward it needs to happen it's not really what I'm talking about here though enablement in this case it's much more around how do you make sure individuals are getting the context they need how are you making sure that they're getting the information they need how are you making sure they're getting the tools they need to make decisions on the spot so it's less about automating what people are doing and more about how can you better enable people with tools and technology now from a leadership perspective that's around making sure people understand the strategy of the company the context in which they're working in making sure you've set the appropriate values etc etc from a technology perspective that's ensuring that you're building the right systems that allow the right information the right tools at the right time to the right people now to some extent even that might not be hard but when the world is constantly changing that gets to be even harder and I think that's one of the reasons we see a lot of traction and open source to solve these problems to use flexible systems to help enterprises be able to enable their people not just in it today but to be flexible going forward and again we'll see some great examples of that and finally engagement so again if execution can't be around driving compliance to a plan because you no longer have this kind of Cris plan well what do leaders do how do organizations operate and so you know I'll broadly use the term engagement several of our customers have used this term and this is really saying well how do you engage your people in real-time to make the right decisions how do you accelerate a pace of cadence how do you operate at a different speed so you can react to change and take advantage of opportunities as they arise and everywhere we look IT is a key enabler of this right in the past IT was often seen as an inhibitor to this because the IT systems move slower than the business might want to move but we are seeing with some of these new technologies that literally IT is becoming the enabler and driving the pace of change back on to the business and you'll again see some great examples of that as well so again rather than listen to me sit here and theoretically talk about these things or refer to what we've seen others doing I thought it'd be much more interesting to bring some of our partners and our customers up here to specifically talk about what they're doing so I'm really excited to have a great group of customers who have agreed to stand in front of 7,500 people or however many here this morning and talk a little bit more about what they're doing so really excited to have them here and really appreciate all them agreeing to be a part of this and so to start I want to start with tee systems we have the CEO of tee systems here and I think this is a great story because they're really two parts to it right because he has two perspectives one is as the CEO of a global company itself having to navigate its way through digital disruption and as a global cloud service provider obviously helping its customers through this same type of change so I'm really thrilled to have a del hasta li join me on stage to talk a little bit about T systems and what they're doing and what we're doing jointly together so Adelle [Music] Jim took to see you Adele thank you for being here you for having me please join me I love to DJ when that fantastic we may have to hire him no more events for events where's well employed he's well employed though here that team do not give him mics activation it's great to have you here really do appreciate it well you're the CEO of a large organization that's going through this disruption in the same way we are I'd love to hear a little bit how for your company you're thinking about you know navigating this change that we're going through great well you know key systems as an ICT service provider we've been around for decades I'm not different to many of our clients we had to change the whole disruption of the cloud and digitization and new skills and new capability and agility it's something we had to face as well so over the last five years and especially in the last three years we invested heavily invested over a billion euros in building new capabilities building new offerings new infrastructures to support our clients so to be very disruptive for us as well and so and then with your customers themselves they're going through this set of change and you're working to help them how are you working to help enable your your customers as they're going through this change well you know all of them you know in this journey of changing the way they run their business leveraging IT much more to drive business results digitization and they're all looking for new skills new ideas they're looking for platforms that take them away from traditional waterfall development that takes a year or a year and a half before they see any results to processes and ways of bringing applications in a week in a month etcetera so it's it's we are part of that journey with them helping them for that and speaking of that I know we're working together and to help our joint customers with that can you talk a little bit more about what we're doing together sure well you know our relationship goes back years and years with with the Enterprise Linux but over the last few years we've invested heavily in OpenShift and OpenStack to build peope as layers to build you know flexible infrastructure for our clients and we've been working with you we tested many different technology in the marketplace and been more successful with Red Hat and the stack there and I'll give you an applique an example several large European car manufacturers who have connected cars now as a given have been accelerating the applications that needed to be in the car and in the past it took them years if not you know scores to get an application into the car and today we're using open shift as the past layer to develop to enable these DevOps for these companies and they bring applications in less than a month and it's a huge change in the dynamics of the competitiveness in the marketplace and we rely on your team and in helping us drive that capability to our clients yeah do you find it fascinating so many of the stories that you hear and that we've talked about with with our customers is this need for speed and this ability to accelerate and enable a greater degree of innovation by simply accelerating what what we're seeing with our customers absolutely with that plus you know the speed is important agility is really critical but doing it securely doing it doing it in a way that is not gonna destabilize the you know the broader ecosystem is really critical and things like GDP are which is a new security standard in Europe is something that a lot of our customers worry about they need help with and we're one of the partners that know what that really is all about and how to navigate within that and use not prevent them from using the new technologies yeah I will say it isn't just the speed of the external but the security and the regulation especially GDR we have spent an hour on that with our board this week there you go he said well thank you so much for being here really to appreciate the work that we're doing together and look forward to continued same here thank you thank you [Applause] we've had a great partnership with tea systems over the years and we've really taken it to the next level and what's really exciting about that is you know we've moved beyond just helping kind of host systems for our customers we really are jointly enabling their success and it's really exciting and we're really excited about what we're able to to jointly accomplish so next i'm really excited that we have our innovation award winners here and we'll have on stage with us our innovation award winners this year our BBVA dnm IAG lasat Lufthansa Technik and UPS and yet they're all working in one for specific technology initiatives that they're doing that really really stand out and are really really exciting you'll have a chance to learn a lot more about those through the course of the event over the next couple of days but in this context what I found fascinating is they were each addressing a different point of this configure enable engage and I thought it would be really great for you all to hear about how they're experimenting and working to solve these problems you know real-time large organizations you know happening now let's start with the video to see what they think about when they think about innovation I define innovation is something that's changing the model changing the way of thinking not just a step change improvement not just making something better but actually taking a look at what already exists and then putting them together in new and exciting lives innovation is about to build something nobody has done before historically we had a statement that business drives technology we flip that equation around an IT is now demonstrating to the business at power of technology innovation desde el punto de vista de la tecnología supone salir de plataform as proprietary as ADA Madero cloud basado an open source it's a possibility the open source que no parameter no sir Kamala and I think way that for me open-source stands for flexibility speed security the community and that contribution from the community is really driving innovation innovation at a pace that I don't think our one individual organization could actually do ourselves right so first I'd like to talk with BBVA I love this story because as you know Financial Services is going through a massive set of transformations and BBVA really is at the leading edge of thinking about how to deploy a hybrid cloud strategy and kind of modular layered architecture to be successful regardless of what happens in the future so with that I'd like to welcome on stage Jose Maria Rosetta from BBVA [Music] thank you for being here and congratulations on your innovation award it's been a pleasure to be here with you it's great to have you hi everybody so Josemaria for those who might not be familiar with BBVA can you give us a little bit of background on your company yeah a brief description BBVA is is a bank as a financial institution with diversified business model and that provides well financial services to more than 73 million of customers in more than 20 countries great and I know we've worked with you for a long time so we appreciate that the partnership with you so I thought I'd start with a really easy question for you how will blockchain you know impact financial services in the next five years I've gotten no idea but if someone knows the answer I've got a job for him for him up a pretty good job indeed you know oh all right well let me go a little easier then so how will the global payments industry change in the next you know four or five years five years well I think you need a a Weezer well I tried to make my best prediction means that in five years just probably will be five years older good answer I like that I always abstract up I hope so I hope so yah-yah-yah hope so good point so you know immediately that's the obvious question you have a massive technology infrastructure is a global bank how do you prepare yourself to enable the organization to be successful when you really don't know what the future is gonna be well global banks and wealth BBBS a global gam Bank a certain component foundations you know today I would like to talk about risk and efficiency so World Bank's deal with risk with the market great the operational reputational risk and so on so risk control is part of all or DNA you know and when you've got millions of customers you know efficiency efficiency is a must so I think there's no problem with all these foundations they problem the problem analyze the problems appears when when banks translate these foundations is valued into technology so risk control or risk management avoid risk usually means by the most expensive proprietary technology in the market you know from one of the biggest software companies in the world you know so probably all of you there are so those people in the room were glad to hear you say that yeah probably my guess the name of those companies around San Francisco most of them and efficiency usually means a savory business unit as every department or country has his own specific needs by a specific solution for them so imagine yourself working in a data center full of silos with many different Hardware operating systems different languages and complex interfaces to communicate among them you know not always documented what really never documented so your life your life in is not easy you know in this scenario are well there's no room for innovation so what's been or or strategy be BES ready to move forward in this new digital world well we've chosen a different approach which is quite simple is to replace all local proprietary system by a global platform based on on open source with three main goals you know the first one is reduce the average transaction cost to one-third the second one is increase or developers productivity five times you know and the third is enable or delete the business be able to deliver solutions of three times faster so you're not quite easy Wow and everything with the same reliability as on security standards as we've got today Wow that is an extraordinary set of objectives and I will say their world on the path of making that successful which is just amazing yeah okay this is a long journey sometimes a tough journey you know to be honest so we decided to partnership with the with the best companies in there in the world and world record we think rate cut is one of these companies so we think or your values and your knowledge is critical for BBVA and well as I mentioned before our collaboration started some time ago you know and just an example in today in BBVA a Spain being one of the biggest banks in in the country you know and using red hat technology of course our firm and fronting architecture you know for mobile and internet channels runs the ninety five percent of our customers request this is approximately 3,000 requests per second and our back in architecture execute 70 millions of business transactions a day this is almost a 50% of total online transactions executed in the country so it's all running yes running I hope so you check for you came on stage it's I'll be flying you know okay good there's no wood up here to knock on it's been a really great partnership it's been a pleasure yeah thank you so much for being here thank you thank you [Applause] I do love that story because again so much of what we talk about when we when we talk about preparing for digital is a processed solution and again things like agile and DevOps and modular izing components of work but this idea of thinking about platforms broadly and how they can run anywhere and actually delivering it delivering at a scale it's just a phenomenal project and experience and in the progress they've made it's a great team so next up we have two organizations that have done an exceptional job of enabling their people with the right information and the tools they need to be successful you know in both of these cases these are organizations who are under constant change and so leveraging the power of open-source to help them build these tools to enable and you'll see it the size and the scale of these in two very very different contexts it's great to see and so I'd like to welcome on stage Oh smart alza' with dnm and David Abraham's with IAG [Music] Oh smart welcome thank you so much for being here Dave great to see you thank you appreciate you being here and congratulations to you both on winning the Innovation Awards thank you so Omar I really found your story fascinating and how you're able to enable your people with data which is just significantly accelerated the pace with which they can make decisions and accelerate your ability to to act could you tell us a little more about the project and then what you're doing Jim and Tina when the muchisimas gracias por ever

administration or diem records the entry and exit of people on the Argentine territory it grants residents permits to foreigners who wish to live in our country through 237 entry points land air border sea and river ways Jim dnm registered over 80 million transits throughout last year Argentine borders cover about 15,000 kilometers just our just to give you an idea of the magnitude of our borders this is greater than the distance on a highway between Mexico City and Alaska our department applies the mechanisms that prevent the entry and residents of people involved in crimes like terrorism trafficking of persons weapons drugs and others in 2016 we shifted to a more preventive and predictive paradigm that is how Sam's the system for migration analysis was created with red hats great assistance and support this allowed us to tackle the challenge of integrating multiple and varied issues legal issues police databases national and international security organizations like Interpol API advanced passenger information and PNR passenger name record this involved starting private cloud with OpenShift Rev data virtualization cloud forms and fuse that were the basis to develop Sam and implementing machine learning models and artificial intelligence our analysts consulted a number of systems and other manual files before 2016 4 days for each person entering or leaving the country so this has allowed us to optimize our decisions making them in real time each time Sam is consulted it processes patterns of over two billion data entries Sam's aim is to improve the quality of life of our citizens and visitors making sure that crime doesn't pierce our borders in an environment of analytic evolution and constant improvement in essence Sam contributes toward Argentina being one of the leaders in Latin America in terms of immigration with our new system great thank you and and so Dave tell us a little more about the insurance industry and the challenges in the EU face yeah sure so you know in the insurance industry it's a it's been a bit sort of insulated from a lot of major change in disruption just purely from the fact that it's highly regulated and the cost of so that the barrier to entry is quite high in fact if you think about insurance you know you have to have capital reserves to protect against those major events like floods bush fires and so on but the whole thing is a lot of change there's come in a really rapid pace I'm also in the areas of customer expectations you know customers and now looking and expecting for the same levels of flexibility and convenience that they would experience with more modern and new startups they're expecting out of the older institutions like banks and insurance companies like us so definitely expecting the industry to to be a lot more adaptable and to better meet their needs I think the other aspect of it really is in the data the data area where I think that the donor is now creating a much more significant connection between organizations in a car summers especially when you think about the level of devices that are now enabled and the sheer growth of data that's that that's growing at exponential rates so so that the impact then is that the systems that we used to rely on are the technology we used to rely on to be able to handle that kind of growth no longer keeps up and is able to to you know build for the future so we need to sort of change that so what I G's really doing is transform transforming the organization to become a lot more efficient focus more on customers and and really set ourselves up to be agile and adaptive and so ya know as part of your Innovation Award that the specific set of projects you tied a huge amount of different disparate systems together and with M&A and other you have a lot to do there to you tell us a little more about kind of how you're able to better respond to customer needs by being able to do that yeah no you're right so we've we've we're nearly a hundred year old company that's grown from lots of merger and acquisition and just as a result of that that means that data's been sort of spread out and fragmented across multiple brands and multiple products and so the number one sort of issue and problem that we were hearing was that it was too hard to get access to data and it's highly complicated which is not great from a company from our perspective really because because we are a data company right that's what we do we we collect data about people what they what's important to them what they value and the environment in which they live so that we can understand that risk and better manage and protect those people so what we're doing is we're trying to make and what we have been doing is making data more open and accessible and and by that I mean making data more of easily available for people to use it to make decisions in their day-to-day activity and to do that what we've done is built a single data platform across the group that unifies the data into a single source of truth that we can then build on top of that single views of customers for example that puts the right information into the into the hands of the people that need it the most and so now why does open source play such a big part in doing that I know there are a lot of different solutions that could get you there sure well firstly I think I've been sauce has been k2 these and really it's been key because we've basically started started from scratch to build this this new next-generation data platform based on entirely open-source you know using great components like Kafka and Postgres and airflow and and and and and then fundamentally building on top of red Red Hat OpenStack right to power all that and they give us the flexibility that we need to be able to make things happen much faster for example we were just talking to the pivotal guys earlier this week here and some of the stuff that we're doing they're they're things quite interesting innovative writes even sort of maybe first in the world where we've taken the older sort of appliance and dedicated sort of massive parallel processing unit and ported that over onto red Red Hat OpenStack right which is now giving us a lot more flexibility for scale in a much more efficient way but you're right though that we've come from in the past a more traditional approach to to using vendor based technology right which was good back then when you know technology solutions could last for around 10 years or so on and and that was fine but now that we need to move much faster we've had to rethink that and and so our focus has been on using you know more commoditized open source technology built by communities to give us that adaptability and sort of remove the locking in there any entrenchment of technology so that's really helped us but but I think that the last point that's been really critical to us is is answering that that concern and question about ongoing support and maintenance right so you know in a regular environment the regulator is really concerned about anything that could fundamentally impact business operation and and so the question is always about what happens when something goes wrong who's going to be there to support you which is where the value of the the partnership we have with Red Hat has really come into its own right and what what it's done is is it's actually giving us the best of both worlds a means that we can we can leverage and use and and and you know take some of the technology that's being developed by great communities in the open source way but also partner with a trusted partner in red had to say you know they're going to stand behind that community and provide that support when we needed the most so that's been the kind of the real value out of that partnership okay well I appreciate I love the story it's how do you move quickly leverage the power community but do it in a safe secure way and I love the idea of your literally empowering people with machine learning and AI at the moment when they need it it's just an incredible story so thank you so much for being here appreciate it thank you [Applause] you know again you see in these the the importance of enabling people with data and in an old-world was so much data was created with a system in mind versus data is a separate asset that needs to be available real time to anyone is a theme we hear over and over and over again and so you know really looking at open source solutions that allow that flexibility and keep data from getting locked into proprietary silos you know is a theme that we've I've heard over and over over the past year with many of our customers so I love logistics I'm a geek that way I come from that background in the past and I know that running large complex operations requires flawless execution and that requires great data and we have two great examples today around how to engage own organizations in new and more effective ways in the case of lufthansa technik literally IT became the business so it wasn't enabling the business it became the business offering and importantly went from idea to delivery to customers in a hundred days and so this theme of speed and the importance of speed it's a it's a great story you'll hear more about and then also at UPS UPS again I talked a little earlier about IT used to be kind of the long pole in the tent the thing that was slow moving because of the technology but UPS is showing that IT can actually drive the business and the cadence of business even faster by demonstrating the power and potential of technology to engage in this case hundreds of thousands of people to make decisions real-time in the face of obviously constant change around weather mechanicals and all the different things that can happen in a large logistics operation like that so I'd like to welcome on stage to be us more from Lufthansa Technik and Nick Castillo from ups to be us welcome thank you for being here Nick thank you thank you Jim and congratulations on your Innovation Awards oh thank you it's a great honor so to be us let's start with you can you tell us a little bit more about what a viet are is yeah avatars are a digital platform offering features like aircraft condition analytics reliability management and predictive maintenance and it helps airlines worldwide to digitize and improve their operations so all of the features work and can be used separately or generate even more where you burn combined and finally we decided to set up a viet as an open platform that means that we avoid the whole aviation industry to join the community and develop ideas on our platform and to be as one of things i found really fascinating about this is that you had a mandate to do this at a hundred days and you ultimately delivered on it you tell us a little bit about that i mean nothing in aviation moves that fast yeah that's been a big challenge so in the beginning of our story the Lufthansa bot asked us to develop somehow digital to win of an aircraft within just hundred days and to deliver something of value within 100 days means you cannot spend much time and producing specifications in terms of paper etc so for us it was pretty clear that we should go for an angel approach and immediately start and developing ideas so we put the best experts we know just in one room and let them start to work and on day 2 I think we already had the first scribbles for the UI on day 5 we wrote the first lines of code and we were able to do that because it has been a major advantage for us to already have four technologies taken place it's based on open source and especially rated solutions because we did not have to waste any time setting up the infrastructure and since we wanted to get feedback very fast we were certainly visited an airline from the Lufthansa group already on day 30 and showed them the first results and got a lot of feedback and because from the very beginning customer centricity has been an important aspect for us and changing the direction based on customer feedback has become quite normal for us over time yeah it's an interesting story not only engaging the people internally but be able to engage with a with that with a launch customer like that and get feedback along the way as it's great thing how is it going overall since launch yeah since the launch last year in April we generated much interest in the industry as well from Airlines as from competitors and in the following month we focused on a few Airlines which had been open minded and already advanced in digital activities and we've got a lot of feedback by working with them and we're able to improve our products by developing new features for example we learned that data integration can become quite complex in the industry and therefore we developed a new feature called quick boarding allowing Airlines to integrate into the via table platform within one day using a self-service so and currently we're heading for the next steps beyond predictive maintenance working on process automation and prescriptive prescriptive maintenance because we believe prediction without fulfillment still isn't enough it really is a great example of even once you're out there quickly continuing to innovate change react it's great to see so Nick I mean we all know ups I'm still always blown away by the size and scale of the company and the logistics operations that you run you tell us a little more about the project and what we're doing together yeah sure Jim and you know first of all I think I didn't get the sportcoat memo I think I'm the first one up here today with a sport coat but you know first on you know on behalf of the 430,000 ups was around the world and our just world-class talented team of 5,000 IT professionals I have to tell you we're humbled to be one of this year's red hat Innovation Award recipients so we really appreciate that you know as a global logistics provider we deliver about 20 million packages each day and we've got a portfolio of technologies both operational and customer tech and another customer facing side the power what we call the UPS smart logistics network and I gotta tell you innovations in our DNA technology is at the core of everything we do you know from the ever familiar first and industry mobile platform that a lot of you see when you get delivered a package which we call the diad which believe it or not we delivered in 1992 my choice a data-driven solution that drives over 40 million of our my choice customers I'm whatever you know what this is great he loves logistics he's a my choice customer you could be one too by the way there's a free app in the App Store but it provides unmatched visibility and really controls that last mile delivery experience so now today we're gonna talk about the solution that we're recognized for which is called site which is part of a much greater platform that we call edge which is transforming how our package delivery teams operate providing them real-time insights into our operations you know this allows them to make decisions based on data from 32 disparate data sources and these insights help us to optimize our operations but more importantly they help us improve the delivery experience for our customers just like you Jim you know on the on the back end is Big Data and it's on a large scale our systems are crunching billions of events to render those insights on an easy-to-use mobile platform in real time I got to tell you placing that information in our operators hands makes ups agile and being agile being able to react to changing conditions as you know is the name of the game in logistics now we built edge in our private cloud where Red Hat technologies play a very important role as part of our overage overarching cloud strategy and our migration to agile and DevOps so it's it's amazing it's amazing the size and scale so so you have this technology vision around engaging people in a more effect way those are my word not yours but but I'd be at that's how it certainly feels and so tell us a little more about how that enables the hundreds of thousands people to make better decisions every day yep so you know we're a people company and the edge platform is really the latest in a series of solutions to really empower our people and really power that smart logistics network you know we've been deploying technology believe it or not since we founded the company in 1907 we'll be a hundred and eleven years old this August it's just a phenomenal story now prior to edge and specifically the syphon ishutin firm ation from a number of disparate systems and reports they then need to manually look across these various data sources and and frankly it was inefficient and prone to inaccuracy and it wasn't really real-time at all now edge consumes data as I mentioned earlier from 32 disparate systems it allows our operators to make decisions on staffing equipment the flow of packages through the buildings in real time the ability to give our people on the ground the most up-to-date data allows them to make informed decisions now that's incredibly empowering because not only are they influencing their local operations but frankly they're influencing the entire global network it's truly extraordinary and so why open source and open shift in particular as part of that solution yeah you know so as I mentioned Red Hat and Red Hat technology you know specifically open shift there's really core to our cloud strategy and to our DevOps strategy the tools and environments that we've partnered with Red Hat to put in place truly are foundational and they've fundamentally changed the way we develop and deploy our systems you know I heard Jose talk earlier you know we had complex solutions that used to take 12 to 18 months to develop and deliver to market today we deliver those same solutions same level of complexity in months and even weeks now openshift enables us to container raise our workloads that run in our private cloud during normal operating periods but as we scale our business during our holiday peak season which is a very sure window about five weeks during the year last year as a matter of fact we delivered seven hundred and sixty-two million packages in that small window and our transactions our systems they just spiked dramatically during that period we think that having open shift will allow us in those peak periods to seamlessly move workloads to the public cloud so we can take advantage of burst capacity economically when needed and I have to tell you having this flexibility I think is key because you know ultimately it's going to allow us to react quickly to customer demands when needed dial back capacity when we don't need that capacity and I have to say it's a really great story of UPS and red hat working you together it really is a great story is just amazing again the size and scope but both stories here a lot speed speed speed getting to market quickly being able to try things it's great lessons learned for all of us the importance of being able to operate at a fundamentally different clock speed so thank you all for being here very much appreciated congratulate thank you [Applause] [Music] alright so while it's great to hear from our Innovation Award winners and it should be no surprise that they're leading and experimenting in some really interesting areas its scale so I hope that you got a chance to learn something from these interviews you'll have an opportunity to learn more about them you'll also have an opportunity to vote on the innovator of the year you can do that on the Red Hat summit mobile app or on the Red Hat Innovation Awards homepage you can learn even more about their stories and you'll have a chance to vote and I'll be back tomorrow to announce the the summit winner so next I like to spend a few minutes on talking about how Red Hat is working to catalyze our customers efforts Marko bill Peter our senior vice president of customer experience and engagement and John Alessio our vice president of global services will both describe areas in how we are working to configure our own organization to effectively engage with our customers to use open source to help drive their success so with that I'd like to welcome marquel on stage [Music] good morning good morning thank you Jim so I want to spend a few minutes to talk about how we are configured how we are configured towards your success how we enable internally as well to work towards your success and actually engage as well you know Paul yesterday talked about the open source culture and our open source development net model you know there's a lot of attributes that we have like transparency meritocracy collaboration those are the key of our culture they made RedHat what it is today and what it will be in the future but we also added our passion for customer success to that let me tell you this is kind of the configuration from a cultural perspective let me tell you a little bit on what that means so if you heard the name my organization is customer experience and engagement right in the past we talked a lot about support it's an important part of the Red Hat right and how we are configured we are configured probably very uniquely in the industry we put support together we have product security in there we add a documentation we add a quality engineering into an organization you think there's like wow why are they doing it we're also running actually the IT team for actually the product teams why are we doing that now you can imagine right we want to go through what you see as well right and I'll give you a few examples on how what's coming out of this configuration we invest more and more in testing integration and use cases which you are applying so you can see it between the support team experiencing a lot what you do and actually changing our test structure that makes a lot of sense we are investing more and more testing outside the boundaries so not exactly how things must fall by product management or engineering but also how does it really run in an environment that you operate we run complex setups internally right taking openshift putting in OpenStack using software-defined storage underneath managing it with cloud forms managing it if inside we do that we want to see how that works right we are reshaping documentation console to kind of help you better instead of just documenting features and knobs as in how can how do you want to achieve things now part of this is the configuration that are the big part of the configuration is the voice of the customer to listen to what you say I've been here at Red Hat a few years and one of my passion has always been really hearing from customers how they do it I travel constantly in the world and meet with customers because I want to know what is really going on we use channels like support we use channels like getting from salespeople the interaction from customers we do surveys we do you know we interact with our people to really hear what you do what we also do what maybe not many know and it's also very unique in the industry we have a webpage called you asked reacted we show very transparently you told us this is an area for improvement and it's not just in support it's across the company right build us a better web store build us this we're very transparent about Hades improvements we want to do with you now if you want to be part of the process today go to the feedback zone on the next floor down and talk to my team I might be there as well hit me up we want to hear the feedback this is how we talk about configuration of the organization how we are configured let me go to let me go to another part which is innovation innovation every day and that in my opinion the enable section right we gotta constantly innovate ourselves how do we work with you how do we actually provide better value how do we provide faster responses in support this is what we would I say is is our you know commitment to innovation which is the enabling that Jim talked about and I give you a few examples which I'm really happy and it kind of shows the open source culture at Red Hat our commitment is for innovation I'll give you good example right if you have a few thousand engineers and you empower them you kind of set the business framework as hey this is an area we got to do something you get a lot of good IDs you get a lot of IDs and you got a shape an inter an area that hey this is really something that brings now a few years ago we kind of said or I say is like based on a lot of feedback is we got to get more and more proactive if you customers and so I shaped my team and and I shaped it around how can we be more proactive it started very simple as in like from kbase articles or knowledgebase articles in getting started guys then we started a a tool that we put out called labs you've probably seen them if you're on the technical side really taking small applications out for you to kind of validate is this configured correctly stat configure there was the start then out of that the ideas came and they took different turns and one of the turns that we came out was right at insights that we launched a few years ago and did you see the demo yesterday that in Paul's keynote that they showed how something was broken with one the data centers how it was applied to fix and how has changed this is how innovation really came from the ground up from the support side and turned into something really a being a cornerstone of our strategy and we're keeping it married from the day to day work right you don't want to separate this you want to actually keep that the data that's coming from the support goes in that because that's the power that we saw yesterday in the demo now innovation doesn't stop when you set the challenge so we did the labs we did the insights we just launched a solution engine called solution engine another thing that came out of that challenge is in how do we break complex issues down that it's easier for you to find a solution quicker it's one example but we're also experimenting with AI so insights uses AI as you probably heard yesterday we also use it internally to actually drive faster resolution we did in one case with a a our I bought basically that we get to 25% faster resolution on challenges that you have the beauty for you obviously it's well this is much faster 10% of all our support cases today are supported and assisted by an AI now I'll give you another example of just trying to tell you the innovation that comes out if you configure and enable the team correctly kbase articles are knowledgebase articles we q8 thousands and thousands every year and then I get feedback as and while they're good but they're in English as you can tell my English is perfect so it's not no issue for that but for many of you is maybe like even here even I read it in Japanese so we actually did machine translation because it's too many that we can do manually the using machine translation I can tell it's a funny example two weeks ago I tried it I tried something from English to German I looked at it the German looked really bad I went back but the English was bad so it really translates one to one actually what it does but it's really cool this is innovation that you can apply and the team actually worked on this and really proud on that now the real innovation there is not these tools the real innovation is that you can actually shape it in a way that the innovation comes that you empower the people that's the configure and enable and what I think is all it's important this don't reinvent the plumbing don't start from scratch use systems like containers on open shift to actually build the innovation in a smaller way without reinventing the plumbing you save a lot of issues on security a lot of issues on reinventing the wheel focus on that that's what we do as well if you want to hear more details again go in the second floor now let's talk about the engage that Jim mentioned before what I translate that engage is actually engaging you as a customer towards your success now what does commitment to success really mean and I want to reflect on that on a traditional IT company shows up with you talk the salesperson solution architect works with you consulting implements solution it comes over to support and trust me in a very traditional way the support guy has no clue what actually was sold early on it's what happens right and this is actually I think that red had better that we're not so silent we don't show our internal silos or internal organization that much today we engage in a way it doesn't matter from which team it comes we have a better flow than that you deserve how the sausage is made but we can never forget what was your business objective early on now how is Red Hat different in this and we are very strong in my opinion you might disagree but we are very strong in a virtual accounting right really putting you in the middle and actually having a solution architect work directly with support or consulting involved and driving that together you can also help us in actually really embracing that model if that's also other partners or system integrators integrate put yourself in the middle be around that's how we want to make sure that we don't lose sight of the original business problem trust me reducing the hierarchy or getting rid of hierarchy and bureaucracy goes a long way now this is how we configured this is how we engage and this is how we are committed to your success with that I'm going to introduce you to John Alessio that talks more about some of the innovation done with customers thank you [Music] good morning I'm John Alessio I'm the vice president of Global Services and I'm delighted to be with you here today I'd like to talk to you about a couple of things as it relates to what we've been doing since the last summit in the services organization at the core of everything we did it's very similar to what Marco talked to you about our number one priority is driving our customer success with red hat technology and as you see here on the screen we have a number of different offerings and capabilities all the way from training certification open innovation labs consulting really pairing those capabilities together with what you just heard from Marco in the support or cee organization really that's the journey you all go through from the beginning of discovering what your business challenge is all the way through designing those solutions and deploying them with red hat now the highlight like to highlight a few things of what we've been up to over the last year so if I start with the training and certification team they've been very busy over the last year really updating enhancing our curriculum if you haven't stopped by the booth there's a preview for new capability around our learning community which is a new way of learning and really driving that enable meant in the community because 70% of what you need to know you learned from your peers and so it's a very key part of our learning strategy and in fact we take customer satisfaction with our training and certification business very seriously we survey all of our students coming out of training 93% of our students tell us they're better prepared because of red hat training and certification after Weeds they've completed the course we've updated the courses and we've trained well over a hundred and fifty thousand people over the last two years so it's a very very key part of our strategy and that combined with innovation labs and the consulting operation really drive that overall journey now we've been equally busy in enhancing the system of enablement and support for our business partners another very very key initiative is building out the ecosystem we've enhanced our open platform which is online partner enablement network we've added new capability and in fact much of the training and enablement that we do for our internal consultants our deal is delivered through the open platform now what I'm really impressed with and thankful for our partners is how they are consuming and leveraging this material we train and enable for sales for pre-sales and for delivery and we're up over 70% year in year in our partners that are enabled on RedHat technology let's give our business partners a round of applause now one of our offerings Red Hat open innovation labs I'd like to talk a bit more about and take you through a case study open innovation labs was created two years ago it's really there to help you on your journey in adopting open source technology it's an immersive experience where your team will work side-by-side with Red Hatters to really propel your journey forward in adopting open source technology and in fact we've been very busy since the summit in Boston as you'll see coming up on the screen we've completed dozens of engagements leveraging our methods tools and processes for open innovation labs as you can see we've worked with large and small accounts in fact if you remember summit last year we had a European customer easier AG on stage which was a startup and we worked with them at the very beginning of their business to create capabilities in a very short four-week engagement but over the last year we've also worked with very large customers such as Optim and Delta Airlines here in North America as well as Motability operations in the European arena one of the accounts I want to spend a little bit more time on is Heritage Bank heritage Bank is a community owned bank in Toowoomba Australia their challenge was not just on creating new innovative technology but their challenge was also around cultural transformation how to get people to work together across the silos within their organization we worked with them at all levels of the organization to create a new capability the first engagement went so well that they asked us to come in into a second engagement so I'd like to do now is run a video with Peter lock the chief executive officer of Heritage Bank so he can take you through their experience Heritage Bank is one of the country's oldest financial institutions we have to be smarter we have to be more innovative we have to be more agile we had to change we had to find people to help us make that change the Red Hat lab is the only one that truly helps drive that change with a business problem the change within the team is very visible from the start to now we've gone from being separated to very single goal minded seeing people that I only ever seen before in their cubicles in the room made me smile programmers in their thinking I'm now understanding how the whole process fits together the productivity of IT will change and that is good for our business that's really the value that were looking for the Red Hat innovation labs for us were a really great experience I'm not interested in running an organization I'm interested in making a great organization to say I was pleasantly surprised by it is an understatement I was delighted I love the quote I was delighted makes my heart warm every time I see that video you know since we were at summit for those of you who are with us in Boston some of you went on our hardhat tours we've opened three physical facilities here at Red Hat where we can conduct red head open Innovation Lab engagements Singapore London and Boston were all opened within the last physical year and in fact our site in Boston is paired with our world-class executive briefing center as well so if you haven't been there please do check it out I'd like to now talk to you a bit about a very special engagement that we just recently completed we just recently completed an engagement with UNICEF the United Nations Children's Fund and the the purpose behind this engagement was really to help UNICEF create an open-source platform that marries big data with social good the idea is UNICEF needs to be better prepared to respond to emergency situations and as you can imagine emergency situations are by nature unpredictable you can't really plan for them they can happen anytime anywhere and so we worked with them on a project that we called school mapping and the idea was to provide more insights so that when emergency situations arise UNICEF could do a much better job in helping the children in the region and so we leveraged our Red Hat open innovation lab methods tools processes that you've heard about just like we did at Heritage Bank and the other accounts I mentioned but then we also leveraged Red Hat software technologies so we leveraged OpenShift container platform we leveraged ansible automation we helped the client with a more agile development approach so they could have releases much more frequently and continue to update this over time we created a continuous integration continuous deployment pipeline we worked on containers and container in the application etc with that we've been able to provide a platform that is going to allow for their growth to better respond to these emergency situations let's watch a short video on UNICEF mission of UNICEF innovation is to apply technology to the world's most pressing problems facing children data is changing the landscape of what we do at UNICEF this means that we can figure out what's happening now on the ground who it's happening to and actually respond to it in much more of a real-time manner than we used to be able to do we love working with open source communities because of their commitment that we should be doing good for the world we're actually with red hat building a sandbox where universities or other researchers or data scientists can connect and help us with our work if you want to use data for social good there's so many groups out there that really need your help and there's so many ways to get involved [Music] so let's give a very very warm red hat summit welcome to Erica kochi co-founder of unicef innovation well Erica first of all welcome to Red Hat summit thanks for having me here it's our pleasure and thank you for joining us so Erica I've just talked a bit about kind of what we've been up to and Red Hat services over the last year we talked a bit about our open innovation labs and we did this project the school mapping project together our two teams and I thought the audience might find it interesting from your point of view on why the approach we use in innovation labs was such a good fit for the school mapping project yeah it was a great fit for for two reasons the first is values everything that we do at UNICEF innovation we use open source technology and that's for a couple of reasons because we can take it from one place and very easily move it to other countries around the world we work in 190 countries so that's really important for us not to be able to scale things also because it makes sense we can get we can get more communities involved in this and look not just try to do everything by ourselves but look much open much more openly towards the open source communities out there to help us with our work we can't do it alone yeah and then the second thing is methodology you know the labs are really looking at taking this agile approach to prototyping things trying things failing trying again and that's really necessary when you're developing something new and trying to do something new like mapping every school in the world yeah very challenging work think about it 190 countries Wow and so the open source platform really works well and then the the rapid prototyping was really a good fit so I think the audience might find it interesting on how this application and this platform will help children in Latin America so in a lot of countries in Latin America and many countries throughout the world that UNICEF works in are coming out of either decades of conflict or are are subject to natural disasters and not great infrastructure so it's really important to a for us to know where schools are where communities are well where help is needed what's connected what's not and using a overlay of various sources of data from poverty mapping to satellite imagery to other sources we can really figure out what's happening where resources are where they aren't and so we can plan better to respond to emergencies and to and to really invest in areas that are needed that need that investment excellent excellent it's quite powerful what we were able to do in a relatively short eight or nine week engagement that our two teams did together now many of your colleagues in the audience are using open source today looking to expand their use of open source and I thought you might have some recommendations for them on how they kind of go through that journey and expanding their use of open source since your experience at that yeah for us it was it was very much based on what's this gonna cost we have limited resources and what's how is this gonna spread as quickly as possible mm-hmm and so we really asked ourselves those two questions you know about 10 years ago and what we realized is if we are going to be recommending technologies that governments are going to be using it really needs to be open source they need to have control over it yeah and they need to be working with communities not developing it themselves yeah excellent excellent so I got really inspired with what we were doing here in this project it's one of those you know every customer project is really interesting to me this one kind of pulls a little bit at your heartstrings on what the real impact could be here and so I know some of our colleagues here in the audience may want to get involved how can they get involved well there's many ways to get involved with the other UNICEF or other groups out there you can search for our work on github and there are tasks that you can do right now if and if you're looking for to do she's got work for you and if you want sort of a more a longer engagement or a bigger engagement you can check out our website UNICEF stories org and you can look at the areas you might be interested in and contact us we're always open to collaboration excellent well Erica thank you for being with us here today thank you for the great project we worked on together and have a great summer thank you for being give her a round of applause all right well I hope that's been helpful to you to give you a bit of an update on what we've been focused on in global services the message I'll leave with you is our top priority is customer success as you heard through the story from UNICEF from Heritage Bank and others we can help you innovate where you are today I hope you have a great summit and I'll call out Jim Whitehurst thank you John and thank you Erica that's really an inspiring story we have so many great examples of how individuals and organizations are stepping up to transform in the face of digital disruption I'd like to spend my last few minutes with one real-world example that brings a lot of this together and truly with life-saving impact how many times do you think you can solve a problem which is going to allow a clinician to now save the life I think the challenge all of his physicians are dealing with is data overload I probably look at over 100,000 images in a day and that's just gonna get worse what if it was possible for some computer program to look at these images with them and automatically flag images that might deserve better attention Chris on the surface seems pretty simple but underneath Chris has a lot going on in the past year I've seen Chris Foreman community and a space usually dominated by proprietary software I think Chris can change medicine as we know it today [Music] all right with that I'd like to invite on stage dr. Ellen grant from Boston Children's Hospital dr. grant welcome thank you for being here so dr. grant tell me who is Chris Chris does a lot of work for us and I think Chris is making me or has definitely the potential to make me a better doctor Chris helps us take data from our archives in the hospital and port it to wrap the fastback ends like the mass up and cloud to do rapid data processing and provide it back to me in any format on a desktop an iPad or an iPhone so it it basically brings high-end data analysis right to me at the bedside and that's been a barrier that I struggled with years ago to try to break down so that's where we started with Chris is to to break that barrier between research that occurred on a timeline of days to weeks to months to clinical practice which occurs in the timeline of seconds to minutes well one of things I found really fascinating about this story RedHat in case you can't tell we're really passionate about user driven innovation is this is an example of user driven innovation not directly at a technology company but in medicine excuse me can you tell us just a little bit about the genesis of Chris and how I got started yeah Chris got started when I was running a clinical division and I was very frustrated with not having the latest image analysis tools at my fingertips while I was on clinical practice and I would have to on the research so I could go over and you know do line code and do the data analysis but if I'm always over in clinical I kept forgetting how to do those things and I wanted to have all those innovations that my fingertips and not have to remember all the computer science because I'm a physician not like a better scientist so I wanted to build a platform that gave me easy access to that back-end without having to remember all the details and so that's what Chris does for us is brings allowed me to go into the PAC's grab a dataset send it to a computer and back in to do the analysis and bring it back to me without having to worry about where it was or how it got there that's all involved in the in the platform Chris and why not just go to a vendor and ask them to write a piece of software for you to do that yeah we thought about that and we do a lot of technical innovations and we always work with the experts so we wanted to work with if I'm going to be able to say an optical device I'm going to work with the optical engineers or an EM our system I'm going to work with em our engineers so we wanted to work with people who really knew or the plumbers so to speak of the software in industry so we ended up working with the massive point cloud for the platform and the distributed systems in Red Hat as the infrastructure that's starting to support Chris and that's been actually a really incredible journey for us because medical ready medical softwares not typically been a community process and that's something that working with dan from Red Hat we learned a lot about how to participate in an open community and I think our team has grown a lot as a result of that collaboration and I know you we've talked about in the past that getting this data locked into a proprietary system you may not be able to get out there's a real issue can you talk about the importance of open and how that's worked in the process yeah and I think for the medical community and I find this resonates with other physicians as well too is that it's medical data we want to continue to own and we feel very awkward about giving it to industry so we would rather have our data sitting in an open cloud like the mass open cloud where we can have a data consortium that oversees the data governance so that we're not giving our data way to somebody else but have a platform that we can still keep a control of our own data and I think it's going to be the future because we're running of a space in the hospital we generate so much data and it's just going to get worse as I was mentioning and all the systems run faster we get new devices so the amount of data that we have to filter through is just astronomically increasing so we need to have resources to store and compute on such large databases and so thinking about where this could go I mean this is a classic feels like an open-source project it started really really small with a originally modest set of goals and it's just kind of continue to grow and grow and grow it's a lot like if yes leanest torval Linux would be in 1995 you probably wouldn't think it would be where it is now so if you dream with me a little bit where do you think this could possibly go in the next five years ten years what I hope it'll do is allow us to break down the silos within the hospital because to do the best job at what we physicians do not only do we have to talk and collaborate together as individuals we have to take the data each each community develops and be able to bring it together so in other words I need to be able to bring in information from vital monitors from mr scans from optical devices from genetic tests electronic health record and be able to analyze on all that data combined so ideally this would be a platform that breaks down those information barriers in a hospital and also allows us to collaborate across multiple institutions because many disorders you only see a few in each hospital so we really have to work as teams in the medical community to combine our data together and also I'm hoping that and we even have discussions with people in the developing world because they have systems to generate or to got to create data or say for example an M R system they can't create data but they don't have the resources to analyze on it so this would be a portable for them to participate in this growing data analysis world without having to have the infrastructure there and be a portal into our back-end and we could provide the infrastructure to do the data analysis it really is truly amazing to see how it's just continued to grow and grow and expand it really is it's a phenomenal story thank you so much for being here appreciate it thank you [Applause] I really do love that story it's a great example of user driven innovation you know in a different industry than in technology and you know recognizing that a clinicians need for real-time information is very different than a researchers need you know in projects that can last weeks and months and so rather than trying to get an industry to pivot and change it's a great opportunity to use a user driven approach to directly meet those needs so we still have a long way to go we have two more days of the summit and as I said yesterday you know we're not here to give you all the answers we're here to convene the conversation so I hope you will have an opportunity today and tomorrow to meet some new people to share some ideas we're really really excited about what we can all do when we work together so I hope you found today valuable we still have a lot more happening on the main stage as well this afternoon please join us back for the general session it's a really amazing lineup you'll hear from the women and opensource Award winners you'll also hear more about our collab program which is really cool it's getting middle school girls interested in open sourcing coding and so you'll have an opportunity to see some people involved in that you'll also hear from the open source Story speakers and you'll including in that you will see a demo done by a technologist who happens to be 11 years old so really cool you don't want to miss that so I look forward to seeing you then this afternoon thank you [Applause]

Day One Wrap | Red Hat Summit 2018


 

San Francisco it's the Red Hat summit 2018 brought to you by Red Hat okay welcome back everyone this is the cube live in San Francisco for Red Hat summit 2018 I'm John for the co-host of the cube and this week for three days of wall-to-wall coverage my co-host analyst is John Tory the co-founder of check reckoning and advisory and community development services firm industry legend formerly VMware's Bentley he was at the Q in 2010 our first ever cube nine years ago John Day one wrap up let's analyze what we heard and dissect and and put Red Hat into day one in the books but you know clearly it's a red-letter day for red hat so to speak your thoughts big day for open shift I think and hybrid cloud right we just saw a lot of signs here that we'll talk about that it's real there's real enterprises here real deployments in the cloud multi-cloud on-site hybrid cloud and i think there's really no doubt about that they really brought a brought the team out and you know red hat's become a bellwether relative to the tech industry because if you look at what they do there's so many irons on the fires but more the most important is that they have huge customer base in the enterprise which they've earned over a decades of work being the open source renegade to the open source darling and Tier one citizen they got a huge install basin they got to manage this so they can't just throw you know spaghetti at the wall they gotta have big solutions they're very technical company very humble but they do make some good tech bets absolutely we'll be talking with the folks from core OS tomorrow they have a couple of other action you know things we'll be talking about a lot of interesting partnerships the the most you know the thing here Linux is real and it's is the 20-year growth and that it's real in the enterprise and I mean the top line think the top line slowed and John is is is kubernetes than the gnu/linux for the cloud and I got to say there's some reality there yeah it's there's no doubt about it I mean then I've got my notes here just my summary for the day is on that point the new wave is here okay the glue layer that kubernetes and containers provide on top of say Linux in this case OpenShift a you know alternative past layer just a few years ago becomes the centerpiece of red hats you know architecture really providing some amazing benefits so I think what's clear is that this new shift this new wave is massive and we've heard on the cube multiple references to tcp/ip HTTP these are seminal moments where there's a massive inflection point where the games just radically changes for the better wealth creation happens startups boom new brands emerged that we've never heard of that just come out of the woodwork entrepreneurial activity hits an all-time high and they all these things are coming yeah I said John I was really impressed if we talk to a number of folks who are involved with technologies that some people might call legacy right we the Java programmers the IBM WebSphere folks they've been you you look at these technologies solid proven tested but yet still over here and adapted for today right and they talked about how they're fitting into openshift how they're fitting into modern application development and you're not leaving those people behind they're really here and you know the old joke going back to say Microsoft when Steve Ballmer was the CEO hell will freeze over when Linux isn't in in Microsoft ecosystem look today no further than what's going on in their developer Commerce called Microsoft build where Linux is the centerpiece of their open-source strategy and Microsoft has transformed themselves into a total open-source world so you know now you got Oracle with giving up Java II calling a Jakarta essentially bringing Java into an the Eclipse community huge move it's a kind of a nuance point but that's another signal of the shifts going on out in the open where communities aren't just yesterday's open source model a new generation of open source actors are coming in a new model I think the CNC F is showing it the Linux Foundation proves that you can have commercialization downstream with open source projects as that catalyst point as a big deal and I think that is happening at a new new level and it's super exciting to see yeah I mean open source is the new normal sure that that works it's in the enterprise but that doesn't mean that open source disappears it actually means that open source and communities and companies coming together to drive innovation actually gets more and more important I kind of thought well you know it's open source well everybody does open source but actually the the dynamics we're seeing of these both large companies partnering with small companies foundations like you talked about the Linux cutlasses various parts the Linux Foundation cloud boundary foundation etc right are really making a big impact well we had earlier on assistant general counsel David Levine and bringing about open source I think one key thing that's notable is this next generation of open source wave comes is the business model of open source and operationalizing it in not just server development lifecycle but in the business operation so for example spending resources on managing proprietary products with that have open source components separate from the community is a resource that you don't have to spend anymore if you just contribute everything to open source that energy can go away so I think open source projects and the product monetization component not new concepts is now highlighted as a bonafide competitive advantage across the company not just proven but like operationally sound legally verified certified and I think also you have to look at the distribution of open source versus the operation and management of open source we see a lot of management managed kubernetes coming out and in fact we didn't talk about today Microsoft big announcement here at the show Microsoft is on Azure is running a managed open ship not not kubernetes they already have kubernetes they're running a managed open ship another way of adding value to an open open source platforms to date directly to the IT operator honestly do you think these kind of deals would happen if you go back four years three years ago oh no way as you're running an open shift absolutely I mean were you crazy the you know the kingdom is turned upside down absolutely this is a notable point I want to get your reaction is because I see this absolutely as validation to the new wave being here with kubernetes containers as a de facto rallying point an inflection point big deals are happening IBM and Red Hat big deal we just talked about them with the players here two bellwether saying we're getting behind containers and two bays in a big way from that relationship essentially it changes the game literally overnight for IBM changes the game for Red Hat I think a little bit more for IBM than Red Hat already gets a ton of benefit but IBM instantly gets a cloud strategy that has a real scalable product market to it Arvind the the head of research laid that out and IBM now can go and compete with major players on deals with the private cloud more deals are coming absolutely this is the beginning now that everyone snapped into place is saying okay kubernetes and containers we now understand this the rallying cry a de facto standard I think a formation is going to happen in the next six to 12 months of major major major players now I mean we are in a not one size does not fit all world John so I mean we will continue to see healthy ecosystems I mean mesosphere and DT cos is still out there Dockers still out there right you will see very functional communities and and functioning application platforms and cloud platforms but you got to say the momentum is here I mean look at amine docker mace those fears look at when things like this happened this is my opinion so I'm just gonna say it out there when you have de facto standards that happen like this it's an opportunity to differentiate so I think what's gonna happen is docker meso sphere and others including the legacy guys like IBM and in others they have to differentiate their products they have to compete software companies so I think docker I think is come tonight at docker con but my opinion looking at from the outside is I think Dockers realized looking we can't make money from containers kubernetes is happening we're a great standard in that let's be a software company let's differentiate around kubernetes so this is just more pressure or more call-to-action to deliver good software hey it's never been of somebody said it's never been a better time to be an IT and IT infrastructure right this is a you think that the tools we have available to us super-powerful another key point I want to get your reaction on with kubernetes and containers this kind of de facto standardization is breathing new life into good initiatives and legacy projects so you think about OpenStack okay OpenStack gets a nice segmented approach is now clear with a where the swim lanes are you're an app developer you go over here and if you are a network and infrastructure guy you're going here but middleware a from talk to the Red Hat guys here we talk to IBM those legacy and apps can put a container around it and don't have to be thrown away and take their natural course now I think it's gonna be a three line through this holy a second life is for legacy and stuff and then to cloud is and it's in second inning because now you have the enablement for cloud your reaction the enablement of cloud Ibn iBM has cloud and then the market shares of nm who you believe they're not in that they're in the top three but they're not double digits according to synergy research and he bought us a little bit higher but still if you compare public cloud they're small they look at IBM's and tire and small base and saying if they have a specialty cloud that can be assembled quit Nellie yeah and scaled and maybe instantly successfully overnight yeah I think a few years ago you know there was a lot different always a few years back it always looks confusing right a few years back we were still arguing public cloud private cloud as private cloud ed is what is a true private cloud is that even valuable I still see people on Twitter making fun of everything anybody who's not 100% into the full public cloud which means they must not have talked to you know a lot of IT folks who have to business to run today so I think you're saying it's a it's a it's a multivalent world multi-cloud there's going to be differentiated clouds there's going to be operational clouds there's gonna be financial clouds and just it's it seems clear that you know from the perspective of right now here in San Francisco and 2018 that that you know the purpose of public-private hybrid seems pretty clear just like the purpose of like I said we're gonna in two weeks we'll be an openstack summit I mean the purpose of that seems pretty clear it's it's funny it's like I had this argument and each Assateague he thinks everything should go the public cloud goes eaten has one of the public clouds but he's kind of right and I and I and we talked about this way I with him I said if everything is running cloud operation we're talking about cloud ops we're talking about how its managed how its deployed code bases across the board if everything is clarified from an OP raishin standpoint the Dearing on Prem and cloud and IOT edge is there's no difference stuffs moving around so you almost treats a data center as an edge network so now it's sexually all cloud in my mind so then and also you do have to keep in mind time time horizons right anybody who has to do work the today this quarter right has to keep in mind what's what what portfolio of business deeds and tools do I have right now versus what it's gonna look like in a few years all right so I want to get your thoughts on your walk away from today I'll start my walk away from day one was talking some of the practitioners Macquarie Bank and Amadeus to me they're a tell signed the canary in the coalmine what's happening horizontally scalable synchronous infrastructure the new model is here now we're seeing them saying things like it's a streaming world not just Kafka for streaming data streaming services levels of granularity that at workers traded with containers and kubernetes up and down the stack to me architects who think that way will have a preferred advantage over everybody else that to me was like okay we're seeing it play out I guess I totally agree right the future isn't evenly distributed my takeaway though is there's certainly a future here and the people we talked to today are doing real-world enterprise scale multi-cloud micro services and modern architectures incorporating their legacy applications and components and that and they're just doing it and they're not even breaking a sweat so I think IT has really changed ok day one coverage continues day two tomorrow we have three days of wall-to-wall coverage day two and then finally day three Thursday here in San Francisco this is the cubes live coverage go to the cube dotnet to check out all the videos they're gonna be going up as soon as they are done live here and check out all the cube alumni and check out Silicon angle comm for all news coverage then of course you got tech reckoning Jon's company's the co-founder of for John Fourier and John Shroyer that's day one in the books thanks for watching see you tomorrow

Day One Afternoon Keynote | Red Hat Summit 2018


 

[Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] ladies and gentlemen please welcome Red Hat senior vice president of engineering Matt Hicks [Music] welcome back I hope you're enjoying your first day of summit you know for us it is a lot of work throughout the year to get ready to get here but I love the energy walking into someone on that first opening day now this morning we kick off with Paul's keynote and you saw this morning just how evolved every aspect of open hybrid cloud has become based on an open source innovation model that opens source the power and potential of open source so we really brought me to Red Hat but at the end of the day the real value comes when were able to make customers like yourself successful with open source and as much passion and pride as we put into the open source community that requires more than just Red Hat given the complexity of your various businesses the solution set you're building that requires an entire technology ecosystem from system integrators that can provide the skills your domain expertise to software vendors that are going to provide the capabilities for your solutions even to the public cloud providers whether it's on the hosting side or consuming their services you need an entire technological ecosystem to be able to support you and your goals and that is exactly what we are gonna talk about this afternoon the technology ecosystem we work with that's ready to help you on your journey now you know this year's summit we talked about earlier it is about ideas worth exploring and we want to make sure you have all of the expertise you need to make those ideas a reality so with that let's talk about our first partner we have him today and that first partner is IBM when I talk about IBM I have a little bit of a nostalgia and that's because 16 years ago I was at IBM it was during my tenure at IBM where I deployed my first copy of Red Hat Enterprise Linux for a customer it's actually where I did my first professional Linux development as well you and that work on Linux it really was the spark that I had that showed me the potential that open source could have for enterprise customers now iBM has always been a steadfast supporter of Linux and a great Red Hat partner in fact this year we are celebrating 20 years of partnership with IBM but even after 20 years two decades I think we're working on some of the most innovative work that we ever have before so please give a warm welcome to Arvind Krishna from IBM to talk with us about what we are working on Arvind [Applause] hey my pleasure to be here thank you so two decades huh that's uh you know I think anything in this industry to going for two decades is special what would you say that that link is made right Hatton IBM so successful look I got to begin by first seeing something that I've been waiting to say for years it's a long strange trip it's been and for the San Francisco folks they'll get they'll get the connection you know what I was just thinking you said 16 it is strange because I probably met RedHat 20 years ago and so that's a little bit longer than you but that was out in Raleigh it was a much smaller company and when I think about the connection I think look IBM's had a long long investment and a long being a long fan of open source and when I think of Linux Linux really lights up our hardware and I think of the power box that you were showing this morning as well as the mainframe as well as all other hardware Linux really brings that to life and I think that's been at the root of our relationship yeah absolutely now I alluded to a little bit earlier we're working on some new stuff and this time it's a little bit higher in the software stack and we have before so what do you what would you say spearheaded that right so we think of software many people know about some people don't realize a lot of the words are called critical systems you know like reservation systems ATM systems retail banking a lot of the systems run on IBM software and when I say IBM software names such as WebSphere and MQ and db2 all sort of come to mind as being some of that software stack and really when I combine that with some of what you were talking about this morning along hybrid and I think this thing called containers you guys know a little about combining the two we think is going to make magic yeah and I certainly know containers and I think for myself seeing the rise of containers from just the introduction of the technology to customers consuming at mission-critical capacities it's been probably one of the fastest technology cycles I've ever seen before look we completely agree with that when you think back to what Paul talks about this morning on hybrid and we think about it we are made of firm commitment to containers all of our software will run on containers and all of our software runs Rell and you put those two together and this belief on hybrid and containers giving you their hybrid motion so that you can pick where you want to run all the software is really I think what has brought us together now even more than before yeah and the best part I think I've liked we haven't just done the product in downstream alignment we've been so tied in our technology approach we've been aligned all the way to the upstream communities absolutely look participating upstream participating in these projects really bringing all the innovation to bear you know when I hear all of you talk about you can't just be in a single company you got to tap into the world of innovation and everybody should contribute we firmly believe that instead of helping to do that is kind of why we're here yeah absolutely now the best part we're not just going to tell you about what we're doing together we're actually going to show you so how every once you tell the audience a little bit more about what we're doing I will go get the demo team ready in the back so you good okay so look we're doing a lot here together we're taking our software and we are begging to put it on top of Red Hat and openshift and really that's what I'm here to talk about for a few minutes and then we go to show it to you live and the demo guard should be with us so it'll hopefully go go well so when we look at extending our partnership it's really based on three fundamental principles and those principles are the following one it's a hybrid world every enterprise wants the ability to span across public private and their own premise world and we got to go there number two containers are strategic to both of us enterprise needs the agility you need a way to easily port things from place to place to place and containers is more than just wrapping something up containers give you all of the security the automation the deploy ability and we really firmly believe that and innovation is the path forward I mean you got to bring all the innovation to bear whether it's around security whether it's around all of the things we heard this morning around going across multiple infrastructures right the public or private and those are three firm beliefs that both of us have together so then explicitly what I'll be doing here number one all the IBM middleware is going to be certified on top of openshift and rel and through cloud private from IBM so that's number one all the middleware is going to run in rental containers on OpenShift on rail with all the cloud private automation and deployability in there number two we are going to make it so that this is the complete stack when you think about from hardware to hypervisor to os/2 the container platform to all of the middleware it's going to be certified up and down all the way so that you can get comfort that this is certified against all the cyber security attacks that come your way three because we do the certification that means a complete stack can be deployed wherever OpenShift runs so that way you give the complete flexibility and you no longer have to worry about that the development lifecycle is extended all the way from inception to production and the management plane then gives you all of the delivery and operation support needed to lower that cost and lastly professional services through the IBM garages as well as the Red Hat innovation labs and I think that this combination is really speaks to the power of both companies coming together and both of us working together to give all of you that flexibility and deployment capabilities across one can't can't help it one architecture chart and that's the only architecture chart I promise you so if you look at it right from the bottom this speaks to what I'm talking about you begin at the bottom and you have a choice of infrastructure the IBM cloud as well as other infrastructure as a service virtual machines as well as IBM power and IBM mainframe as is the infrastructure choices underneath so you choose what what is best suited for the workload well with the container service with the open shift platform managing all of that environment as well as giving the orchestration that kubernetes gives you up to the platform services from IBM cloud private so it contains the catalog of all middle we're both IBM's as well as open-source it contains all the deployment capability to go deploy that and it contains all the operational management so things like come back up if things go down worry about auto scaling all those features that you want come to you from there and that is why that combination is so so powerful but rather than just hear me talk about it I'm also going to now bring up a couple of people to talk about it and what all are they going to show you they're going to show you how you can deploy an application on this environment so you can think of that as either a cloud native application but you can also think about it as how do you modernize an application using micro services but you don't want to just keep your application always within its walls you also many times want to access different cloud services from this and how do you do that and I'm not going to tell you which ones they're going to come and tell you and how do you tackle the complexity of both hybrid data data that crosses both from the private world to the public world and as well as target the extra workloads that you want so that's kind of the sense of what you're going to see through through the demonstrations but with that I'm going to invite Chris and Michael to come up I'm not going to tell you which one's from IBM which runs from Red Hat hopefully you'll be able to make the right guess so with that Chris and Michael [Music] so so thank you Arvind hopefully people can guess which ones from Red Hat based on the shoes I you know it's some really exciting stuff that we just heard there what I believe that I'm I'm most excited about when I look out upon the audience and the opportunity for customers is with this announcement there are quite literally millions of applications now that can be modernized and made available on any cloud anywhere with the combination of IBM cloud private and OpenShift and I'm most thrilled to have mr. Michael elder a distinguished engineer from IBM here with us today and you know Michael would you maybe describe for the folks what we're actually going to go over today absolutely so when you think about how do I carry forward existing applications how do I build new applications as well you're creating micro services that always need a mixture of data and messaging and caching so this example application shows java-based micro services running on WebSphere Liberty each of which are then leveraging things like IBM MQ for messaging IBM db2 for data operational decision manager all of which is fully containerized and running on top of the Red Hat open chip container platform and in fact we're even gonna enhance stock trader to help it understand how you feel but okay hang on so I'm a little slow to the draw sometimes you said we're gonna have an application tell me how I feel exactly exactly you think about your enterprise apps you want to improve customer service understanding how your clients feel can't help you do that okay well this I'd like to see that in action all right let's do it okay so the first thing we'll do is we'll actually take a look at the catalog and here in the IBM cloud private catalog this is all of the content that's available to deploy now into this hybrid solution so we see workloads for IBM will see workloads for other open source packages etc each of these are packaged up as helm charts that are deploying a set of images that will be certified for Red Hat Linux and in this case we're going to go through and start with a simple example with a node out well click a few actions here we'll give it a name now do you have your console up over there I certainly do all right perfect so we'll deploy this into the new old namespace and will deploy notate okay alright anything happening of course it's come right up and so you know what what I really like about this is regardless of if I'm used to using IBM clout private or if I'm used to working with open shift yeah the experience is well with the tool of whatever I'm you know used to dealing with on a daily basis but I mean you know I got to tell you we we deployed node ourselves all the time what about and what about when was the last time you deployed MQ on open shift you never I maybe never all right let's fix that so MQ obviously is a critical component for messaging for lots of highly transactional systems here we'll deploy this as a container on the platform now I'm going to deploy this one again into new worlds I'm gonna disable persistence and for my application I'm going to need a queue manager so I'm going to have it automatically setup my queue manager as well now this will deploy a couple of things what do you see I see IBM in cube all right so there's your stateful set running MQ and of course there's a couple of other components that get stood up as needed here including things like credentials and secrets and the service etc but all of this is they're out of the box ok so impressive right but that's the what I think you know what I'm really looking at is maybe how a well is this running you know what else does this partnership bring when I look at IBM cloud private windows inches well so that's a key reason about why it's not just about IBM middleware running on open shift but also IBM cloud private because ultimately you need that common management plane when you deploy a container the next thing you have to worry about is how do I get its logs how do I manage its help how do I manage license consumption how do I have a common security plan right so cloud private is that enveloping wrapper around IBM middleware to provide those capabilities in a common way and so here we'll switch over to our dashboard this is our Griffin and Prometheus stack that's deployed also now on cloud private running on OpenShift and we're looking at a different namespace we're looking at the stock trader namespace we'll go back to this app here momentarily and we can see all the different pieces what if you switch over to the stock trader workspace on open shipped yeah I think we might be able to do that here hey there it is alright and so what you're gonna see here all the different pieces of this op right there's d b2 over here I see the portfolio Java microservice running on Webster Liberty I see my Redis cash I see MQ all of these are the components we saw in the architecture picture a minute ago ya know so this is really great I mean so maybe let's take a look at the actual application I see we have a fine stock trader app here now we mentioned understanding how I feel exactly you know well I feel good that this is you know a brand new stock trader app versus the one from ten years ago that don't feel like we used forever so the key thing is this app is actually all of those micro services in addition to things like business rules etc to help understand the loyalty program so one of the things we could do here is actually enhance it with a a AI service from Watson this is tone analyzer it helps me understand how that user actually feels and will be able to go through and submit some feedback to understand that user ok well let's see if we can take a look at that so I tried to click on youth clearly you're not very happy right now here I'll do one quick thing over here go for it we'll clear a cache for our sample lab so look you guys don't actually know as Michael and I just wrote this no js' front end backstage while Arvin was actually talking with Matt and we deployed it real-time using continuous integration and continuous delivery that we have available with openshift well the great thing is it's a live demo right so we're gonna do it all live all the time all right so you mentioned it'll tell me how I'm feeling right so if we look at so right there it looks like they're pretty angry probably because our cache hadn't been cleared before we started the demo maybe well that would make me angry but I should be happy because I mean I have a lot of money well it's it's more than I get today for sure so but you know again I don't want to remain angry so does Watson actually understand southern I know it speaks like eighty different languages but well you know I'm from South Carolina to understand South Carolina southern but I don't know about your North Carolina southern alright well let's give it a go here y'all done a real real know no profanity now this is live I've done a real real nice job on this here fancy demo all right hey all right likes me now all right cool and the key thing is just a quick note right it's showing you've got a free trade so we can integrate those business rules and then decide to I do put one trade if you're angry give me more it's all bringing it together into one platform all running on open show yeah and I can see the possibilities right of we've not only deployed services but getting that feedback from our customers to understand well how well the services are being used and are people really happy with what they have hey listen Michael this was amazing I read you joining us today I hope you guys enjoyed this demo as well so all of you know who this next company is as I look out through the crowd based on what I can actually see with the sun shining down on me right now I can see their influence everywhere you know Sports is in our everyday lives and these guys are equally innovative in that space as they are with hybrid cloud computing and they use that to help maintain and spread their message throughout the world of course I'm talking about Nike I think you'll enjoy this next video about Nike and their brand and then we're going to hear directly from my twitting about what they're doing with Red Hat technology new developments in the top story of the day the world has stopped turning on its axis top scientists are currently racing to come up with a solution everybody going this way [Music] the wrong way [Music] please welcome Nike vice president of infrastructure engineering Mike witig [Music] hi everybody over the last five years at Nike we have transformed our technology landscape to allow us to connect more directly to our consumers through our retail stores through Nike comm and our mobile apps the first step in doing that was redesigning our global network to allow us to have direct connectivity into both Asia and AWS in Europe in Asia and in the Americas having that proximity to those cloud providers allows us to make decisions about application workload placement based on our strategy instead of having design around latency concerns now some of those workloads are very elastic things like our sneakers app for example that needs to burst out during certain hours of the week there's certain moments of the year when we have our high heat product launches and for those type of workloads we write that code ourselves and we use native cloud services but being hybrid has allowed us to not have to write everything that would go into that app but rather just the parts that are in that application consumer facing experience and there are other back-end systems certain core functionalities like order management warehouse management finance ERP and those are workloads that are third-party applications that we host on relevent over the last 18 months we have started to deploy certain elements of those core applications into both Azure and AWS hosted on rel and at first we were pretty cautious that we started with development environments and what we realized after those first successful deployments is that are the impact of those cloud migrations on our operating model was very small and that's because the tools that we use for monitoring for security for performance tuning didn't change even though we moved those core applications into Azure in AWS because of rel under the covers and getting to the point where we have that flexibility is a real enabler as an infrastructure team that allows us to just be in the yes business and really doesn't matter where we want to deploy different workload if either cloud provider or on-prem anywhere on the planet it allows us to move much more quickly and stay much more directed to our consumers and so having rel at the core of our strategy is a huge enabler for that flexibility and allowing us to operate in this hybrid model thanks very much [Applause] what a great example it's really nice to hear an IQ story of using sort of relish that foundation to enable their hybrid clout enable their infrastructure and there's a lot that's the story we spent over ten years making that possible for rel to be that foundation and we've learned a lot in that but let's circle back for a minute to the software vendors and what kicked off the day today with IBM IBM s one of the largest software portfolios on the planet but we learned through our journey on rel that you need thousands of vendors to be able to sport you across all of your different industries solve any challenge that you might have and you need those vendors aligned with your technology direction this is doubly important when the technology direction is changing like with containers we saw that two years ago bread had introduced our container certification program now this program was focused on allowing you to identify vendors that had those shared technology goals but identification by itself wasn't enough in this fast-paced world so last year we introduced trusted content we introduced our container health index publicly grading red hats images that form the foundation for those vendor images and that was great because those of you that are familiar with containers know that you're taking software from vendors you're combining that with software from companies like Red Hat and you are putting those into a single container and for you to run those in a mission-critical capacity you have to know that we can both stand by and support those deployments but even trusted content wasn't enough so this year I'm excited that we are extending once again to introduce trusted operations now last week we announced that cube con kubernetes conference the kubernetes operator SDK the goal of the kubernetes operators is to allow any software provider on kubernetes to encode how that software should run this is a critical part of a container ecosystem not just being able to find the vendors that you want to work with not just knowing that you can trust what's inside the container but knowing that you can efficiently run that software now the exciting part is because this is so closely aligned with the upstream technology that today we already have four partners that have functioning operators specifically Couchbase dynaTrace crunchy and black dot so right out of the gate you have security monitoring data store options available to you these partners are really leading the charge in terms of what it means to run their software on OpenShift but behind these four we have many more in fact this morning we announced over 60 partners that are committed to building operators they're taking their domain expertise and the software that they wrote that they know and extending that into how you are going to run that on containers in environments like OpenShift this really brings the power of being able to find the vendors being able to trust what's inside and know that you can run their software as efficiently as anyone else on the planet but instead of just telling you about this we actually want to show you this in action so why don't we bring back up the demo team to give you a little tour of what's possible with it guys thanks Matt so Matt talked about the concept of operators and when when I think about operators and what they do it's taking OpenShift based services and making them even smarter giving you insight into how they do things for example have we had an operator for the nodejs service that I was running earlier it would have detected the problem and fixed itself but when we look at it what really operators do when I look at it from an ecosystem perspective is for ISVs it's going to be a catalyst that's going to allow them to make their services as manageable and it's flexible and as you know maintainable as any public cloud service no matter where OpenShift is running and to help demonstrate this I've got my buddy Rob here Rob are we ready on the demo front we're ready awesome now I notice this screen looks really familiar to me but you know I think we want to give folks here a dev preview of a couple of things well we want to show you is the first substantial integration of the core OS tectonic technology with OpenShift and then the other thing is we are going to dive in a little bit more into operators and their usefulness so Rob yeah so what we're looking at here is the service catalog that you know and love and openshift and we've got a few new things in here we've actually integrated operators into the Service Catalog and I'm going to take this filter and give you a look at some of them that we have today so you can see we've got a list of operators exposed and this is the same way that your developers are already used to integrating with products they're right in your catalog and so now these are actually smarter services but how can we maybe look at that I mentioned that there's maybe a new view I'm used to seeing this as a developer but I hear we've got some really cool stuff if I'm the administrator of the console yeah so we've got a whole new side of the console for cluster administrators to get a look at under the infrastructure versus this dev focused view that we're looking at today today so let's go take a look at it so the first thing you see here is we've got a really rich set of monitoring and health status so we can see that we've got some alerts firing our control plane is up and we can even do capacity planning anything that you need to do to maintenance your cluster okay so it's it's not only for the the services in the cluster and doing things that you know I may be normally as a human operator would have to do but this this console view also gives me insight into the infrastructure itself right like maybe the nodes and maybe handling the security context is that true yes so these are new capabilities that we're bringing to open shift is the ability to do node management things like drain and unscheduled nodes to do day-to-day maintenance and then as well as having security constraints and things like role bindings for example and the exciting thing about this is this is a view that you've never been able to see before it's cross-cutting across namespaces so here we've got a number of admin bindings and we can see that they're connected to a number of namespaces and these would represent our engineering teams all the groups that are using the cluster and we've never had this view before this is a perfect way to audit your security you know it actually is is pretty exciting I mean I've been fortunate enough to be on the up and shift team since day one and I know that operations view is is something that we've you know strived for and so it's really exciting to see that we can offer that now but you know really this was a we want to get into what operators do and what they can do for us and so maybe you show us what the operator console looks like yeah so let's jump on over and see all the operators that we have installed on the cluster you can see that these mirror what we saw on the Service Catalog earlier now what we care about though is this Couchbase operator and we're gonna jump into the demo namespace as I said you can share a number of different teams on a cluster so it's gonna jump into this namespace okay cool so now what we want to show you guys when we think about operators you know we're gonna have a scenario here where there's going to be multiple replicas of a Couchbase service running in the cluster and then we're going to have a stateful set and what's interesting is those two things are not enough if I'm really trying to run this as a true service where it's highly available in persistent there's things that you know as a DBA that I'm normally going to have to do if there's some sort of node failure and so what we want to demonstrate to you is where operators combined with the power that was already within OpenShift are now coming together to keep this you know particular database service highly available and something that we can continue using so Rob what have you got there yeah so as you can see we've got our couch based demo cluster running here and we can see that it's up and running we've got three members we've got an off secret this is what's controlling access to a UI that we're gonna look at in a second but what really shows the power of the operator is looking at this view of the resources that it's managing you can see that we've got a service that's doing load balancing into the cluster and then like you said we've got our pods that are actually running the software itself okay so that's cool so maybe for everyone's benefit so we can show that this is happening live could we bring up the the Couchbase console please and keep up the openshift console both sides so what we see there we go so what we see on the on the right hand side is obviously the same console Rob was working in on the left-hand side as you can see by the the actual names of the pods that are there the the couch based services that are available and so Rob maybe um let's let's kill something that's always fun to do on stage yeah this is the power of the operator it's going to recover it so let's browse on over here and kill node number two so we're gonna forcefully kill this and kick off the recovery and I see right away that because of the integration that we have with operators the Couchbase console immediately picked up that something has changed in the environment now why is that important normally a human being would have to get that alert right and so with operators now we've taken that capability and we've realized that there has been a new event within the environment this is not something that you know kubernetes or open shipped by itself would be able to understand now I'm presuming we're gonna end up doing something else it's not just seeing that it failed and sure enough there we go remember when you have a stateful application rebalancing that data and making it available is just as important as ensuring that the disk is attached so I mean Rob thank you so much for you know driving this for us today and being here I mean you know not only Couchbase but as was mentioned by matt we also have you know crunchy dynaTrace and black duck I would encourage you all to go visit their booths out on the floor today and understand what they have available which are all you know here with a dev preview and then talk to the many other partners that we have that are also looking at operators so again rub thank you for joining us today Matt come on out okay this is gonna make for an exciting year of just what it means to consume container base content I think containers change how customers can get that I believe operators are gonna change how much they can trust running that content let's circle back to one more partner this next partner we have has changed the landscape of computing specifically with their work on hardware design work on core Linux itself you know in fact I think they've become so ubiquitous with computing that we often overlook the technological marvels that they've been able to overcome now for myself I studied computer engineering so in the late 90s I had the chance to study processor design I actually got to build one of my own processors now in my case it was the most trivial processor that you could imagine it was an 8-bit subtractor which means it can subtract two numbers 256 or smaller but in that process I learned the sheer complexity that goes into processor design things like wire placements that are so close that electrons can cut through the insulation in short and then doing those wire placements across three dimensions to multiple layers jamming in as many logic components as you possibly can and again in my case this was to make a processor that could subtract two numbers but once I was done with this the second part of the course was studying the Pentium processor now remember that moment forever because looking at what the Pentium processor was able to accomplish it was like looking at alien technology and the incredible thing is that Intel our next partner has been able to keep up that alien like pace of innovation twenty years later so we're excited have Doug Fisher here let's hear a little bit more from Intel for business wide open skies an open mind no matter the context the idea of being open almost only suggests the potential of infinite possibilities and that's exactly the power of open source whether it's expanding what's possible in business the science and technology or for the greater good which is why-- open source requires the involvement of a truly diverse community of contributors to scale and succeed creating infinite possibilities for technology and more importantly what we do with it [Music] you know what Intel one of our core values is risk-taking and I'm gonna go just a bit off script for a second and say I was just backstage and I saw a gentleman that looked a lot like Scott Guthrie who runs all of Microsoft's cloud enterprise efforts wearing a red shirt talking to Cormier I'm just saying I don't know maybe I need some more sleep but that's what I saw as we approach Intel's 50th anniversary these words spoken by our co-founder Robert Noyce are as relevant today as they were decades ago don't be encumbered by history this is about breaking boundaries in technology and then go off and do something wonderful is about innovation and driving innovation in our industry and Intel we're constantly looking to break boundaries to advance our technology in the cloud in enterprise space that is no different so I'm going to talk a bit about some of the boundaries we've been breaking and innovations we've been driving at Intel starting with our Intel Xeon platform Orion Xeon scalable platform we launched several months ago which was the biggest and mark the most advanced movement in this technology in over a decade we were able to drive critical performance capabilities unmatched agility and added necessary and sufficient security to that platform I couldn't be happier with the work we do with Red Hat and ensuring that those hero features that we drive into our platform they fully expose to all of you to drive that innovation to go off and do something wonderful well there's taking advantage of the performance features or agility features like our advanced vector extensions or avx-512 or Intel quick exist those technologies are fully embraced by Red Hat Enterprise Linux or whether it's security technologies like txt or trusted execution technology are fully incorporated and we look forward to working with Red Hat on their next release to ensure that our advancements continue to be exposed and their platform and all these workloads that are driving the need for us to break boundaries and our technology are driving more and more need for flexibility and computing and that's why we're excited about Intel's family of FPGAs to help deliver that additional flexibility for you to build those capabilities in your environment we have a broad set of FPGA capabilities from our power fish at Mac's product line all the way to our performance product line on the 6/10 strat exten we have a broad set of bets FPGAs what i've been talking to customers what's really exciting is to see the combination of using our Intel Xeon scalable platform in combination with FPGAs in addition to the acceleration development capabilities we've given to software developers combining all that together to deliver better and better solutions whether it's helping to accelerate data compression well there's pattern recognition or data encryption and decryption one of the things I saw in a data center recently was taking our Intel Xeon scalable platform utilizing the capabilities of FPGA to do data encryption between servers behind the firewall all the while using the FPGA to do that they preserve those precious CPU cycles to ensure they delivered the SLA to the customer yet provided more security for their data in the data center one of the edges in cyber security is innovation and route of trust starts at the hardware we recently renewed our commitment to security with our security first pledge has really three elements to our security first pledge first is customer first urgency we have now completed the release of the micro code updates for protection on our Intel platforms nine plus years since launch to protect against things like the side channel exploits transparent and timely communication we are going to communicate timely and openly on our Intel comm website whether it's about our patches performance or other relevant information and then ongoing security assurance we drive security into every one of our products we redesigned a portion of our processor to add these partition capability which is adding additional walls between applications and user level privileges to further secure that environment from bad actors I want to pause for a second and think everyone in this room involved in helping us work through our security first pledge this isn't something we do on our own it takes everyone in this room to help us do that the partnership and collaboration was next to none it's the most amazing thing I've seen since I've been in this industry so thank you we don't stop there we continue to advance our security capabilities cross-platform solutions we recently had a conference discussion at RSA where we talked about Intel Security Essentials where we deliver a framework of capabilities and the end that are in our silicon available for those to innovate our customers and the security ecosystem to innovate on a platform in a consistent way delivering that assurance that those capabilities will be on that platform we also talked about things like our security threat technology threat detection technology is something that we believe in and we launched that at RSA incorporates several elements one is ability to utilize our internal graphics to accelerate some of the memory scanning capabilities we call this an accelerated memory scanning it allows you to use the integrated graphics to scan memory again preserving those precious cycles on the core processor Microsoft adopted this and are now incorporated into their defender product and are shipping it today we also launched our threat SDK which allows partners like Cisco to utilize telemetry information to further secure their environments for cloud workloads so we'll continue to drive differential experiences into our platform for our ecosystem to innovate and deliver more and more capabilities one of the key aspects you have to protect is data by 2020 the projection is 44 zettabytes of data will be available 44 zettabytes of data by 2025 they project that will grow to a hundred and eighty s data bytes of data massive amount of data and what all you want to do is you want to drive value from that data drive and value from that data is absolutely critical and to do that you need to have that data closer and closer to your computation this is why we've been working Intel to break the boundaries in memory technology with our investment in 3d NAND we're reducing costs and driving up density in that form factor to ensure we get warm data closer to the computing we're also innovating on form factors we have here what we call our ruler form factor this ruler form factor is designed to drive as much dense as you can in a 1u rack we're going to continue to advance the capabilities to drive one petabyte of data at low power consumption into this ruler form factor SSD form factor so our innovation continues the biggest breakthrough and memory technology in the last 25 years in memory media technology was done by Intel we call this our 3d crosspoint technology and our 3d crosspoint technology is now going to be driven into SSDs as well as in a persistent memory form factor to be on the memory bus giving you the speed of memory characteristics of memory as well as the characteristics of storage given a new tier of memory for developers to take full advantage of and as you can see Red Hat is fully committed to integrating this capability into their platform to take full advantage of that new capability so I want to thank Paul and team for engaging with us to make sure that that's available for all of you to innovate on and so we're breaking boundaries and technology across a broad set of elements that we deliver that's what we're about we're going to continue to do that not be encumbered by the past your role is to go off and doing something wonderful with that technology all ecosystems are embracing this and driving it including open source technology open source is a hub of innovation it's been that way for many many years that innovation that's being driven an open source is starting to transform many many businesses it's driving business transformation we're seeing this coming to light in the transformation of 5g driving 5g into the networked environment is a transformational moment an open source is playing a pivotal role in that with OpenStack own out and opie NFV and other open source projects were contributing to and participating in are helping drive that transformation in 5g as you do software-defined networks on our barrier breaking technology we're also seeing this transformation rapidly occurring in the cloud enterprise cloud enterprise are growing rapidly and innovation continues our work with virtualization and KVM continues to be aggressive to adopt technologies to advance and deliver more capabilities in virtualization as we look at this with Red Hat we're now working on Cube vert to help move virtualized workloads onto these platforms so that we can now have them managed at an open platform environment and Cube vert provides that so between Intel and Red Hat and the community we're investing resources to make certain that comes to product as containers a critical feature in Linux becomes more and more prevalent across the industry the growth of container elements continues at a rapid rapid pace one of the things that we wanted to bring to that is the ability to provide isolation without impairing the flexibility the speed and the footprint of a container with our clear container efforts along with hyper run v we were able to combine that and create we call cotta containers we launched this at the end of last year cotta containers is designed to have that container element available and adding elements like isolation both of these events need to have an orchestration and management capability Red Hat's OpenShift provides that capability for these workloads whether containerized or cube vert capabilities with virtual environments Red Hat openshift is designed to take that commercial capability to market and we've been working with Red Hat for several years now to develop what we call our Intel select solution Intel select solutions our Intel technology optimized for downstream workloads as we see a growth in a workload will work with a partner to optimize a solution on Intel technology to deliver the best solution that could be deployed quickly our effort here is to accelerate the adoption of these type of workloads in the market working with Red Hat's so now we're going to be deploying an Intel select solution design and optimized around Red Hat OpenShift we expect the industry's start deploying this capability very rapidly I'm excited to announce today that Lenovo is committed to be the first platform company to deliver this solution to market the Intel select solution to market will be delivered by Lenovo now I talked about what we're doing in industry and how we're transforming businesses our technology is also utilized for greater good there's no better example of this than the worked by dr. Stephen Hawking it was a sad day on March 14th of this year when dr. Stephen Hawking passed away but not before Intel had a 20-year relationship with dr. Hawking driving breakthrough capabilities innovating with him driving those robust capabilities to the rest of the world one of our Intel engineers an Intel fellow which is the highest technical achievement you can reach at Intel got to spend 10 years with dr. Hawking looking at innovative things they could do together with our technology and his breakthrough innovative thinking so I thought it'd be great to bring up our Intel fellow Lema notch Minh to talk about her work with dr. Hawking and what she learned in that experience come on up Elina [Music] great to see you Thanks something going on about the breakthrough breaking boundaries and Intel technology talk about how you use that in your work with dr. Hawking absolutely so the most important part was to really make that technology contextually aware because for people with disability every single interaction takes a long time so whether it was adapting for example the language model of his work predictor to understand whether he's gonna talk to people or whether he's writing a book on black holes or to even understand what specific application he might be using and then making sure that we're surfacing only enough actions that were relevant to reduce that amount of interaction so the tricky part is really to make all of that contextual awareness happen without totally confusing the user because it's constantly changing underneath it so how is that your work involving any open source so you know the problem with assistive technology in general is that it needs to be tailored to the specific disability which really makes it very hard and very expensive because it can't utilize the economies of scale so basically with the system that we built what we wanted to do is really enable unleashing innovation in the world right so you could take that framework you could tailor to a specific sensor for example a brain computer interface or something like that where you could actually then support a different set of users so that makes open-source a perfect fit because you could actually build and tailor and we you spoke with dr. Hawking what was this view of open source is it relevant to him so yeah so Stephen was adamant from the beginning that he wanted a system to benefit the world and not just himself so he spent a lot of time with us to actually build this system and he was adamant from day one that he would only engage with us if we were commit to actually open sourcing the technology that's fantastic and you had the privilege of working with them in 10 years I know you have some amazing stories to share so thank you so much for being here thank you so much in order for us to scale and that's what we're about at Intel is really scaling our capabilities it takes this community it takes this community of diverse capabilities it takes two births thought diverse thought of dr. Hawking couldn't be more relevant but we also are proud at Intel about leading efforts of diverse thought like women and Linux women in big data other areas like that where Intel feels that that diversity of thinking and engagement is critical for our success so as we look at Intel not to be encumbered by the past but break boundaries to deliver the technology that you all will go off and do something wonderful with we're going to remain committed to that and I look forward to continue working with you thank you and have a great conference [Applause] thank God now we have one more customer story for you today when you think about customers challenges in the technology landscape it is hard to ignore the public cloud these days public cloud is introducing capabilities that are driving the fastest rate of innovation that we've ever seen in our industry and our next customer they actually had that same challenge they wanted to tap into that innovation but they were also making bets for the long term they wanted flexibility and providers and they had to integrate to the systems that they already have and they have done a phenomenal job in executing to this so please give a warm welcome to Kerry Pierce from Cathay Pacific Kerry come on thanks very much Matt hi everyone thank you for giving me the opportunity to share a little bit about our our cloud journey let me start by telling you a little bit about Cathay Pacific we're an international airline based in Hong Kong and we serve a passenger and a cargo network to over 200 destinations in 52 countries and territories in the last seventy years and years seventy years we've made substantial investments to develop Hong Kong as one of the world's leading transportation hubs we invest in what matters most to our customers to you focusing on our exemplary service and our great product and it's both on the ground and in the air we're also investing and expanding our network beyond our multiple frequencies to the financial districts such as Tokyo New York and London and we're connecting Asia and Hong Kong with key tech hubs like San Francisco where we have multiple flights daily we're also connecting Asia in Hong Kong to places like Tel Aviv and our upcoming destination of Dublin in fact 2018 is actually going to be one of our biggest years in terms of network expansion and capacity growth and we will be launching in September our longest flight from Hong Kong direct to Washington DC and that'll be using a state-of-the-art Airbus a350 1000 aircraft so that's a little bit about Cathay Pacific let me tell you about our journey through the cloud I'm not going to go into technical details there's far smarter people out in the audience who will be able to do that for you just focus a little bit about what we were trying to achieve and the people side of it that helped us get there we had a couple of years ago no doubt the same issues that many of you do I don't think we're unique we had a traditional on-premise non-standardized fragile infrastructure it didn't meet our infrastructure needs and it didn't meet our development needs it was costly to maintain it was costly to grow and it really inhibited innovation most importantly it slowed the delivery of value to our customers at the same time you had the hype of cloud over the last few years cloud this cloud that clouds going to fix the world we were really keen on making sure we didn't get wound up and that so we focused on what we needed we started bottom up with a strategy we knew we wanted to be clouded Gnostic we wanted to have active active on-premise data centers with a single network and fabric and we wanted public clouds that were trusted and acted as an extension of that environment not independently we wanted to avoid single points of failure and we wanted to reduce inter dependencies by having loosely coupled designs and finally we wanted to be scalable we wanted to be able to cater for sudden surges of demand in a nutshell we kind of just wanted to make everything easier and a management level we wanted to be a broker of services so not one size fits all because that doesn't work but also not one of everything we want to standardize but a pragmatic range of services that met our development and support needs and worked in harmony with our public cloud not against it so we started on a journey with red hat we implemented Red Hat cloud forms and ansible to manage our hybrid cloud we also met implemented Red Hat satellite to maintain a manager environment we built a Red Hat OpenStack on crimson vironment to give us an alternative and at the same time we migrated a number of customer applications to a production public cloud open shift environment but it wasn't all Red Hat you love heard today that the Red Hat fits within an overall ecosystem we looked at a number of third-party tools and services and looked at developing those into our core solution I think at last count we had tried and tested somewhere past eight different tools and at the moment we still have around 62 in our environment that help us through that journey but let me put the technical solution aside a little bit because it doesn't matter how good your technical solution is if you don't have the culture and the people to get it right as a group we needed to be aligned for delivery and we focused on three core behaviors we focused on accountability agility and collaboration now I was really lucky we've got a pretty fantastic team for whom that was actually pretty easy but but again don't underestimate the importance of getting the culture and the people right because all the technology in the world doesn't matter if you don't have that right I asked the team what did we do differently because in our situation we didn't go out and hire a bunch of new people we didn't go out and hire a bunch of consultants we had the staff that had been with us for 10 20 and in some cases 30 years so what did we do differently it was really simple we just empowered and supported our staff we knew they were the smart ones they were the ones that were dealing with a legacy environment and they had the passion to make the change so as a team we encouraged suggestions and contributions from our overall IT community from the bottom up we started small we proved the case we told the story and then we got by him and only did did we implement wider the benefits the benefit through our staff were a huge increase in staff satisfaction reduction and application and platform outage support incidents risk free and failsafe application releases work-life balance no more midnight deployments and our application and infrastructure people could really focus on delivering customer value not on firefighting and for our end customers the people that travel with us it was really really simple we could provide a stable service that allowed for faster releases which meant we could deliver value faster in terms of stats we migrated 16 production b2c applications to a public cloud OpenShift environment in 12 months we decreased provisioning time from weeks or occasionally months we were waiting for hardware two minutes and we had a hundred percent availability of our key customer facing systems but most importantly it was about people we'd built a culture a culture of innovation that was built on a foundation of collaboration agility and accountability and that permeated throughout the IT organization not those just those people that were involved in the project everyone with an IT could see what good looked like and to see what it worked what it looked like in terms of working together and that was a key foundation for us the future for us you will have heard today everything's changing so we're going to continue to develop our open hybrid cloud onboard more public cloud service providers continue to build more modern applications and leverage the emerging technology integrate and automate everything we possibly can and leverage more open source products with the great support from the open source community so there you have it that's our journey I think we succeeded by not being over awed and by starting with the basics the technology was key obviously it's a cool component but most importantly it was a way we approached our transition we had a clear strategy that was actually developed bottom-up by the people that were involved day to day and we empowered those people to deliver and that provided benefits to both our staff and to our customers so thank you for giving the opportunity to share and I hope you enjoy the rest of the summer [Applause] I got one thanks what a great story would a great customer story to close on and we have one more partner to come up and this is a partner that all of you know that's Microsoft Microsoft has gone through an amazing transformation they've we've built an incredibly meaningful partnership with them all the way from our open source collaboration to what we do in the business side we started with support for Red Hat Enterprise Linux on hyper-v and that was truly just the beginning today we're announcing one of the most exciting joint product offerings on the market today let's please give a warm welcome to Paul correr and Scott Scott Guthrie to tell us about it guys come on out you know Scot welcome welcome to the Red Hat summer thanks for coming really appreciate it great to be here you know many surprises a lot of people when we you know published a list of speakers and then you rock you were on it and you and I are on stage here it's really really important and exciting to us exciting new partnership we've worked together a long time from the hypervisor up to common support and now around hybrid hybrid cloud maybe from your perspective a little bit of of what led us here well you know I think the thing that's really led us here is customers and you know Microsoft we've been on kind of a transformation journey the last several years where you know we really try to put customers at the center of everything that we do and you know as part of that you quickly learned from customers in terms of I'm including everyone here just you know you've got a hybrid of state you know both in terms of what you run on premises where it has a lot of Red Hat software a lot of Microsoft software and then really is they take the journey to the cloud looking at a hybrid of state in terms of how do you run that now between on-premises and a public cloud provider and so I think the thing that both of us are recognized and certainly you know our focus here at Microsoft has been you know how do we really meet customers with where they're at and where they want to go and make them successful in that journey and you know it's been fantastic working with Paul and the Red Hat team over the last two years in particular we spend a lot of time together and you know really excited about the journey ahead so um maybe you can share a bit more about the announcement where we're about to make today yeah so it's it's it's a really exciting announcement it's and really kind of I think first of its kind in that we're delivering a Red Hat openshift on Azure service that we're jointly developing and jointly managing together so this is different than sort of traditional offering where it's just running inside VMs and it's sort of two vendors working this is really a jointly managed service that we're providing with full enterprise support with a full SLA where the you know single throat to choke if you will although it's collectively both are choke the throats in terms of making sure that it works well and it's really uniquely designed around this hybrid world and in that it supports will support both Windows and Linux containers and it role you know it's the same open ship that runs both in the public cloud on Azure and on-premises and you know it's something that we hear a lot from customers I know there's a lot of people here that have asked both of us for this and super excited to be able to talk about it today and we're gonna show off the first demo of it just a bit okay well I'm gonna ask you to elaborate a bit more about this how this fits into the bigger Microsoft picture and I'll get out of your way and so thanks again thank you for coming here we go thanks Paul so I thought I'd spend just a few minutes talking about wouldn't you know that some of the work that we're doing with Microsoft Asher and the overall Microsoft cloud I didn't go deeper in terms of the new offering that we're announcing today together with red hat and show demo of it actually in action in a few minutes you know the high level in terms of you know some of the work that we've been doing at Microsoft the last couple years you know it's really been around this this journey to the cloud that we see every organization going on today and specifically the Microsoft Azure we've been providing really a cloud platform that delivers the infrastructure the application and kind of the core computing needs that organizations have as they want to be able to take advantage of what the cloud has to offer and in terms of our focus with Azure you know we've really focused we deliver lots and lots of different services and features but we focused really in particular on kind of four key themes and we see these four key themes aligning very well with the journey Red Hat it's been on and it's partly why you know we think the partnership between the two companies makes so much sense and you know for us the thing that we've been really focused on has been with a or in terms of how do we deliver a really productive cloud meaning how do we enable you to take advantage of cutting-edge technology and how do we kind of accelerate the successful adoption of it whether it's around the integration of managed services that we provide both in terms of the application space in the data space the analytic and AI space but also in terms of just the end-to-end management and development tools and how all those services work together so that teams can basically adopt them and be super successful yeah we deeply believe in hybrid and believe that the world is going to be a multi cloud and a multi distributed world and how do we enable organizations to be able to take the existing investments that they already have and be able to easily integrate them in a public cloud and with a public cloud environment and get immediate ROI on day one without how to rip and replace tons of solutions you know we're moving very aggressively in the AI space and are looking to provide a rich set of AI services both finished AI models things like speech detection vision detection object motion etc that any developer even at non data scientists can integrate to make application smarter and then we provide a rich set of AI tooling that enables organizations to build custom models and be able to integrate them also as part of their applications and with their data and then we invest very very heavily on trust Trust is sort of at the core of a sure and we now have more compliant certifications than any other cloud provider we run in more countries than any other cloud provider and we really focus around unique promises around data residency data sovereignty and privacy that are really differentiated across the industry and terms of where Iser runs today we're in 50 regions around the world so our region for us is typically a cluster of multiple data centers that are grouped together and you can see we're pretty much on every continent with the exception of Antarctica today and the beauty is you're going to be able to take the Red Hat open shift service and run it on ashore in each of these different locations and really have a truly global footprint as you look to build and deploy solutions and you know we've seen kind of this focus on productivity hybrid intelligence and Trust really resonate in the market and about 90 percent of Fortune 500 companies today are deployed on Azure and you heard Nike talked a little bit earlier this afternoon about some of their journeys as they've moved to a dot public cloud this is a small logo of just a couple of the companies that are on ashore today and what I do is actually even before we dive into the open ship demo is actually just show a quick video you know one of the companies thing there are actually several people from that organization here today Deutsche Bank who have been working with both Microsoft and Red Hat for many years Microsoft on the other side Red Hat both on the rel side and then on the OpenShift side and it's just one of these customers that have helped bring the two companies together to deliver this managed openshift service on Azure and so I'm just going to play a quick video of some of the folks that Deutsche Bank talking about their experiences and what they're trying to get out of it so we could roll the video that'd be great technology is at the absolute heart of Deutsche Bank we've recognized that the cost of running our infrastructure was particularly high there was a enormous amount of under utilization we needed a platform which was open to polyglot architecture supporting any kind of application workload across the various business lines of the third we analyzed over 60 different vendor products and we ended up with Red Hat openshift I'm super excited Microsoft or supporting Linux so strongly to adopting a hybrid approach we chose as here because Microsoft was the ideal partner to work with on constructs around security compliance business continuity as you as in all the places geographically that we need to be we have applications now able to go from a proof of concept to production in three weeks that is already breaking records openshift gives us given entities and containers allows us to apply the same sets of processes automation across a wide range of our application landscape on any given day we run between seven and twelve thousand containers across three regions we start see huge levels of cost reduction because of the level of multi-tenancy that we can achieve through containers open ship gives us an abstraction layer which is allows us to move our applications between providers without having to reconfigure or recode those applications what's really exciting for me about this journey is the way they're both Red Hat and Microsoft have embraced not just what we're doing but what each other are doing and have worked together to build open shift as a first-class citizen with Microsoft [Applause] in terms of what we're announcing today is a new fully managed OpenShift service on Azure and it's really the first fully managed service provided end-to-end across any of the cloud providers and it's jointly engineer operated and supported by both Microsoft and Red Hat and that means again sort of one service one SLA and both companies standing for a link firmly behind it really again focusing around how do we make customers successful and as part of that really providing the enterprise-grade not just isolates but also support and integration testing so you can also take advantage of all your rel and linux-based containers and all of your Windows server based containers and how can you run them in a joint way with a common management stack taking the advantage of one service and get maximum density get maximum code reuse and be able to take advantage of a containerized world in a better way than ever before and make this customer focus is very much at the center of what both companies are really centered around and so what if I do be fun is rather than just talk about openshift as actually kind of show off a little bit of a journey in terms of what this move to take advantage of it looks like and so I'd like to invite Brendan and Chris onstage who are actually going to show off a live demo of openshift on Azure in action and really walk through how to provision the service and basically how to start taking advantage of it using the full open ship ecosystem so please welcome Brendan and Chris we're going to join us on stage for a demo thanks God thanks man it's been a good afternoon so you know what we want to get into right now first I'd like to think Brandon burns for joining us from Microsoft build it's a busy week for you I'm sure your own stage there a few times as well you know what I like most about what we just announced is not only the business and technical aspects but it's that operational aspect the uniqueness the expertise that RedHat has for running OpenShift combined with the expertise that Microsoft has within Azure and customers are going to get this joint offering if you will with you know Red Hat OpenShift on Microsoft Azure and so you know kind of with that again Brendan I really appreciate you being here maybe talk to the folks about what we're going to show yeah so we're going to take a look at what it looks like to deploy OpenShift on to Azure via the new OpenShift service and the real selling point the really great part of this is the the deep integration with a cloud native app API so the same tooling that you would use to create virtual machines to create disks trade databases is now the tooling that you're going to use to create an open chip cluster so to show you this first we're going to create a resource group here so we're going to create that resource group in East us using the AZ tool that's the the azure command-line tooling a resource group is sort of a folder on Azure that holds all of your stuff so that's gonna come back into the second I've created my resource group in East us and now we're gonna use that exact same tool calling into into Azure api's to provision an open shift cluster so here we go we have AZ open shift that's our new command line tool putting it into that resource group I'm gonna get into East us alright so it's gonna take a little bit of time to deploy that open shift cluster it's doing a bunch of work behind the scenes provisioning all kinds of resources as well as credentials to access a bunch of different as your API so are we actually able to see this to you yeah so we can cut over to in just a second we can cut over to that resource group in a reload so Brendan while relating the beauty of what you know the teams have been doing together already is the fact that now open shift is a first-class citizen as it were yeah absolutely within the agent so I presume not only can I do a deployment but I can do things like scale and check my credentials and pretty much everything that I could do with any other service with that that's exactly right so we can anything that you you were used to doing via the my computer has locked up there we go the demo gods are totally with me oh there we go oh no I hit reload yeah that was that was just evil timing on the house this is another use for operators as we talked about earlier today that's right my dashboard should be coming up do I do I dare click on something that's awesome that was totally it was there there we go good job so what's really interesting about this I've also heard that it deploys you know in as little as five to six minutes which is really good for customers they want to get up and running with it but all right there we go there it is who managed to make it see that shows that it's real right you see the sweat coming off of me there but there you can see the I feel it you can see the various resources that are being created in order to create this openshift cluster virtual machines disks all of the pieces provision for you automatically via that one single command line call now of course it takes a few minutes to to create the cluster so in order to show the other side of that integration the integration between openshift and Azure I'm going to cut over to an open shipped cluster that I already have created alright so here you can see my open shift cluster that's running on Microsoft Azure I'm gonna actually log in over here and the first sign you're gonna see of the integration is it's actually using my credentials my login and going through Active Directory and any corporate policies that I may have around smart cards two-factor off anything like that authenticate myself to that open chef cluster so I'll accept that it can access my and now we're gonna load up the OpenShift web console so now this looks familiar to me oh yeah so if anybody's used OpenShift out there this is the exact same console and what we're going to show though is how this console via the open service broker and the open service broker implementation for Azure integrates natively with OpenShift all right so we can go down here and we can actually see I want to deploy a database I'm gonna deploy Mongo as my key value store that I'm going to use but you know like as we talk about management and having a OpenShift cluster that's managed for you I don't really want to have to manage my database either so I'm actually going to use cosmos DB it's a native Azure service it's a multilingual database that offers me the ability to access my data in a variety of different formats including MongoDB fully managed replicated around the world a pretty incredible service so I'm going to go ahead and create that so now Brendan what's interesting I think to me is you know we talked about the operational aspects and clearly it's not you and I running the clusters but you do need that way to interface with it and so when customers are able to deploy this all of this is out of the box there's no additional contemporary like this is what you get when you create when you use that tool to create that open chef cluster this is what you get with all of that integration ok great step through here and go ahead don't have any IP ranges there we go all right and we create that binding all right and so now behind the scenes openshift is integrated with the azure api's with all of my credentials to go ahead and create that distributed database once it's done provisioning actually all of the credentials necessary to access the database are going to be automatically populated into kubernetes available for me inside of OpenShift via service discovery to access from my application without any further work so I think that really shows not only the power of integrating openshift with an azure based API but actually the power of integrating a Druze API is inside of OpenShift to make a truly seamless experience for managing and deploying your containers across a variety of different platforms yeah hey you know Brendan this is great I know you've got a flight to catch because I think you're back onstage in a few hours but you know really appreciate you joining us today absolutely I look forward to seeing what else we do yeah absolutely thank you so much thanks guys Matt you want to come back on up thanks a lot guys if you have never had the opportunity to do a live demo in front of 8,000 people it'll give you a new appreciation for standing up there and doing it and that was really good you know every time I get the chance just to take a step back and think about the technology that we have at our command today I'm in awe just the progress over the last 10 or 20 years is incredible on to think about what might come in the next 10 or 20 years really is unthinkable you even forget 10 years what might come in the next five years even the next two years but this can create a lot of uncertainty in the environment of what's going to be to come but I believe I am certain about one thing and that is if ever there was a time when any idea is achievable it is now just think about what you've seen today every aspect of open hybrid cloud you have the world's infrastructure at your fingertips and it's not stopping you've heard about this the innovation of open source how fast that's evolving and improving this capability you've heard this afternoon from an entire technology ecosystem that's ready to help you on this journey and you've heard from customer after customer that's already started their journey in the successes that they've had you're one of the neat parts about this afternoon you will aren't later this week you will actually get to put your hands on all of this technology together in our live audience demo you know this is what some it's all about for us it's a chance to bring together the technology experts that you can work with to help formulate how to pull off those ideas we have the chance to bring together technology experts our customers and our partners and really create an environment where everyone can experience the power of open source that same spark that I talked about when I was at IBM where I understood the but intial that open-source had for enterprise customers we want to create the environment where you can have your own spark you can have that same inspiration let's make this you know in tomorrow's keynote actually you will hear a story about how open-source is changing medicine as we know it and literally saving lives it is a great example of expanding the ideas it might be possible that we came into this event with so let's make this the best summit ever thank you very much for being here let's kick things off right head down to the Welcome Reception in the expo hall and please enjoy the summit thank you all so much [Music] [Music]

[Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Applause] [Music] wake up feeling blessed peace you warned that Russia ain't afraid to show it I'll expose it if I dressed up riding in that Chester roasted nigga catch you slippin on myself rocks on I messed up like yes sir [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] our program [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] you are not welcome to Red Hat summit 2018 2018 [Music] [Music] [Music] [Laughter] [Music] Wow that is truly the coolest introduction I've ever had thank you Wow I don't think I feel cool enough to follow an interaction like that Wow well welcome to the Red Hat summit this is our 14th annual event and I have to say looking out over this audience Wow it's great to see so many people here joining us this is by far our largest summit to date not only did we blow through the numbers we've had in the past we blew through our own expectations this year so I know we have a pretty packed house and I know people are still coming in so it's great to see so many people here it's great to see so many familiar faces when I had a chance to walk around earlier it's great to see so many new people here joining us for the first time I think the record attendance is an indication that more and more enterprises around the world are seeing the power of open source to help them with their challenges that they're facing due to the digital transformation that all of enterprises around the world are going through the theme for the summit this year is ideas worth exploring and we intentionally chose that because as much as we are all going through this digital disruption and the challenges associated with it one thing I think is becoming clear no one person and certainly no one company has the answers to these challenges right this isn't a problem where you can go buy a solution this is a set of capabilities that we all need to build it's a set of cultural changes that we all need to go through and that's going to require the best ideas coming from so many different places so we're not here saying we have the answers we're trying to convene the conversation right we want to serve as a catalyst bringing great minds together to share ideas so we all walk out of here at the end of the week a little wiser than when we first came here we do have an amazing agenda for you we have over 7,000 attendees we may be pushing 8,000 by the time we got through this morning we have 36 keynote speakers and we have a hundred and twenty-five breakout sessions and have to throw in one plug scheduling 325 breakout sessions is actually pretty difficult and so we used the Red Hat business optimizer which is an AI constraint solver that's new in the Red Hat decision manager to help us plan the summit because we have individuals who have a clustered set of interests and we want to make sure that when we schedule two breakout sessions we do it in a way that we don't have overlapping sessions that are really important to the same individual so we tried to use this tool and what we understand about people's interest in history of what they wanted to do to try to make sure that we spaced out different times for things of similar interests for similar people as well as for people who stood in the back of breakouts before and I know I've done that too we've also used it to try to optimize room size so hopefully we will do our best to make sure that we've appropriately sized the spaces for those as well so it's really a phenomenal tool and I know it's helped us a lot this year in addition to the 325 breakouts we have a lot of our customers on stage during the main sessions and so you'll see demos you'll hear from partners you'll hear stories from so many of our customers not on our point of view of how to use these technologies but their point of views of how they actually are using these technologies to solve their problems and you'll hear over and over again from those keynotes that it's not just about the technology it's about how people are changing how people are working to innovate to solve those problems and while we're on the subject of people I'd like to take a moment to recognize the Red Hat certified professional of the year this is known award we do every year I love this award because it truly recognizes an individual for outstanding innovation for outstanding ideas for truly standing out in how they're able to help their organization with Red Hat technologies Red Hat certifications help system administrators application developers IT architects to further their careers and help their organizations by being able to advance their skills and knowledge of Red Hat products and this year's winner really truly is a great example about how their curiosity is helped push the limits of what's possible with technology let's hear a little more about this year's winner when I was studying at the University I had computer science as one of my subjects and that's what created the passion from the very beginning they were quite a few institutions around my University who were offering Red Hat Enterprise Linux as a course and a certification paths through to become an administrator Red Hat Learning subscription has offered me a lot more than any other trainings that have done so far that gave me exposure to so many products under red hair technologies that I wasn't even aware of I started to think about the better ways of how these learnings can be put into the real life use cases and we started off with a discussion with my manager saying I have to try this product and I really want to see how it really fits in our environment and that product was Red Hat virtualization we went from deploying rave and then OpenStack and then the open shift environment we wanted to overcome some of the things that we saw as challenges to the speed and rapidity of release and code etc so it made perfect sense and we were able to do it in a really short space of time so you know we truly did use it as an Innovation Lab I think idea is everything ideas can change the way you see things an Innovation Lab was such an idea that popped into my mind one fine day and it has transformed the way we think as a team and it's given that playpen to pretty much everyone to go and test their things investigate evaluate do whatever they like in a non-critical non production environment I recruited Neha almost 10 years ago now I could see there was a spark a potential with it and you know she had a real Drive a real passion and you know here we are nearly ten years later I'm Neha Sandow I am a Red Hat certified engineer all right well everyone please walk into the states to the stage Neha [Music] [Applause] congratulations thank you [Applause] I think that - well welcome to the red has some of this is your first summit yes it is thanks so much well fantastic sure well it's great to have you here I hope you have a chance to engage and share some of your ideas and enjoy the week thank you thank you congratulations [Applause] neha mentioned that she first got interest in open source at university and it made me think red hats recently started our Red Hat Academy program that looks to programmatically infuse Red Hat technologies in universities around the world it's exploded in a way we had no idea it's grown just incredibly rapidly which i think shows the interest that there really is an open source and working in an open way at university so it's really a phenomenal program I'm also excited to announce that we're launching our newest open source story this year at Summit it's called the science of collective discovery and it looks at what happens when communities use open hardware to monitor the environment around them and really how they can make impactful change based on that technologies the rural premier that will be at 5:15 on Wednesday at McMaster Oni West and so please join us for a drink and we'll also have a number of the experts featured in that and you can have a conversation with them as well so with that let's officially start the show please welcome red hat president of products and technology Paul Cormier [Music] Wow morning you know I say it every year I'm gonna say it again I know I repeat myself it's just amazing we are so proud here to be here today too while you all week on how far we've come with opens with open source and with the products that we that we provide at Red Hat so so welcome and I hope the pride shows through so you know I told you Seven Summits ago on this stage that the future would be open and here we are just seven years later this is the 14th summit but just seven years later after that and much has happened and I think you'll see today and this week that that prediction that the world would be open was a pretty safe predict prediction but I want to take you just back a little bit to see how we started here and it's not just how Red Hat started here this is an open source in Linux based computing is now in an industry norm and I think that's what you'll you'll see in here this week you know we talked back then seven years ago when we put on our prediction about the UNIX error and how Hardware innovation with x86 was it was really the first step in a new era of open innovation you know companies like Sun Deck IBM and HP they really changed the world the computing industry with their UNIX models it was that was really the rise of computing but I think what we we really saw then was that single company innovation could only scale so far could really get so far with that these companies were very very innovative but they coupled hardware innovation with software innovation and as one company they could only solve so many problems and even which comp which even complicated things more they could only hire so many people in each of their companies Intel came on the scene back then as the new independent hardware player and you know that was really the beginning of the drive for horizontal computing power and computing this opened up a brand new vehicle for hardware innovation a new hardware ecosystem was built around this around this common hardware base shortly after that Stallman and leanness they had a vision of his of an open model that was created and they created Linux but it was built around Intel this was really the beginning of having a software based platform that could also drive innovation this kind of was the beginning of the changing of the world here that system-level innovation now having a hardware platform that was ubiquitous and a software platform that was open and ubiquitous it really changed this system level innovation and that continues to thrive today it was only possible because it was open this could not have happened in a closed environment it allowed the best ideas from anywhere from all over to come in in win only because it was the best idea that's what drove the rate of innovation at the pace you're seeing today and it which has never been seen before we at Red Hat we saw the need to bring this innovation to solve real-world problems in the enterprise and I think that's going to be the theme of the show today you're going to see us with our customers and partners talking about and showing you some of those real-world problems that we are sought solving with this open innovation we created rel back then for this for the enterprise it started it's it it wasn't successful because it's scaled it was secure and it was enterprise ready it once again changed the industry but this time through open innovation this gave the hardware ecosystem a software platform this open software platform gave the hardware ecosystem a software platform to build around it Unleashed them the hardware side to compete and thrive it enabled innovation from the OEMs new players building cheaper faster servers even new architectures from armed to power sprung up with this change we have seen an incredible amount of hardware innovation over the last 15 years that same innovation happened on the software side we saw powerful implementations of bare metal Linux distributions out in the market in fact at one point there were 300 there are over 300 distributions out in the market on the foundation of Linux powerful open-source equivalents were even developed in every area of Technology databases middleware messaging containers anything you could imagine innovation just exploded around the Linux platform in innovation it's at the core also drove virtualization both Linux and virtualization led to another area of innovation which you're hearing a lot about now public cloud innovation this innovation started to proceed at a rate that we had never seen before we had never experienced this in the past in this unprecedented speed of innovation and software was now possible because you didn't need a chip foundry in order to innovate you just needed great ideas in the open platform that was out there customers seeing this innovation in the public cloud sparked it sparked their desire to build their own linux based cloud platforms and customers are now are now bringing that cloud efficiency on-premise in their own data centers public clouds demonstrated so much efficiency the data centers and architects wanted to take advantage of it off premise on premise I'm sorry within their own we don't within their own controlled environments this really allowed companies to make the most of existing investments from data centers to hardware they also gained many new advantages from data sovereignty to new flexible agile approaches I want to bring Burr and his team up here to take a look at what building out an on-premise cloud can look like today Bure take it away I am super excited to be with all of you here at Red Hat summit I know we have some amazing things to show you throughout the week but before we dive into this demonstration I want you to take just a few seconds just a quick moment to think about that really important event your life that moment you turned on your first computer maybe it was a trs-80 listen Claire and Atari I even had an 83 b2 at one point but in my specific case I was sitting in a classroom in Hawaii and I could see all the way from Diamond Head to Pearl Harbor so just keep that in mind and I turn on an IBM PC with dual floppies I don't remember issuing my first commands writing my first level of code and I was totally hooked it was like a magical moment and I've been hooked on computers for the last 30 years so I want you to hold that image in your mind for just a moment just a second while we show you the computers we have here on stage let me turn this over to Jay fair and Dini here's our worldwide DevOps manager and he was going to show us his hardware what do you got Jay thank you BER good morning everyone and welcome to Red Hat summit we have so many cool things to show you this week I am so happy to be here and you know my favorite thing about red hat summit is our allowed to kind of share all of our stories much like bird just did we also love to you know talk about the hardware and the technology that we brought with us in fact it's become a bit of a competition so this year we said you know let's win this thing and we actually I think we might have won we brought a cloud with us so right now this is a private cloud for throughout the course of the week we're going to turn this into a very very interesting open hybrid cloud right before your eyes so everything you see here will be real and happening right on this thing right behind me here so thanks for our four incredible partners IBM Dell HP and super micro we've built a very vendor heterogeneous cloud here extra special thanks to IBM because they loaned us a power nine machine so now we actually have multiple architectures in this cloud so as you know one of the greatest benefits to running Red Hat technology is that we run on just about everything and you know I can't stress enough how powerful that is how cost-effective that is and it just makes my life easier to be honest so if you're interested the people that built this actual rack right here gonna be hanging out in the customer success zone this whole week it's on the second floor the lobby there and they'd be glad to show you exactly how they built this thing so let me show you what we actually have in this rack so contained in this rack we have 1056 physical chorus right here we have five and a half terabytes of RAM and just in case we threw 50 terabytes of storage in this thing so burr that's about two million times more powerful than that first machine you boot it up thanks to a PC we're actually capable of putting all the power needs and cooling right in this rack so there's your data center right there you know it occurred to me last night that I can actually pull the power cord on this thing and kick it up a notch we could have the world's first mobile portable hybrid cloud so I'm gonna go ahead and unplug no no no no no seriously it's not unplug the thing we got it working now well Berg gets a little nervous but next year we're rolling this thing around okay okay so to recap multiple vendors check multiple architectures check multiple public clouds plug right into this thing check and everything everywhere is running the same software from Red Hat so that is a giant check so burn Angus why don't we get the demos rolling awesome so we have totally we have some amazing hardware amazing computers on this stage but now we need to light it up and we have Angus Thomas who represents our OpenStack engineering team and he's going to show us what we can do with this awesome hardware Angus thank you Beth so this was an impressive rack of hardware to Joe has bought a pocket stage what I want to talk about today is putting it to work with OpenStack platform director we're going to turn it from a lot of potential into a flexible scalable private cloud we've been using director for a while now to take care of managing hardware and orchestrating the deployment of OpenStack what's new is that we're bringing the same capabilities for on-premise manager the deployment of OpenShift director deploying OpenShift in this way is the best of both worlds it's bare-metal performance but with an underlying infrastructure as a service that can take care of deploying in new instances and scaling out and a lot of the things that we expect from a cloud provider director is running on a virtual machine on Red Hat virtualization at the top of the rack and it's going to bring everything else under control what you can see on the screen right now is the director UI and as you see some of the hardware in the rack is already being managed at the top level we have information about the number of cores in the amount of RAM and the disks that each machine have if we dig in a bit there's information about MAC addresses and IPs and the management interface the BIOS kernel version dig a little deeper and there is information about the hard disks all of this is important because we want to be able to make sure that we put in workloads exactly where we want them Jay could you please power on the two new machines at the top of the rack sure all right thank you so when those two machines come up on the network director is going to see them see that they're new and not already under management and is it immediately going to go into the hardware inspection that populates this database and gets them ready for use so we also have profiles as you can see here profiles are the way that we match the hardware in a machine to the kind of workload that it's suited to this is how we make sure that machines that have all the discs run Seth and machines that have all the RAM when our application workouts for example there's two ways these can be set when you're dealing with a rack like this you could go in an individually tag each machine but director scales up to data centers so we have a rules matching engine which will automatically take the hardware profile of a new machine and make sure it gets tagged in exactly the right way so we can automatically discover new machines on the network and we can automatically match them to a profile that's how we streamline and scale up operations now I want to talk about deploying the software we have a set of validations we've learned over time about the Miss configurations in the underlying infrastructure which can cause the deployment of a multi node distributed application like OpenStack or OpenShift to fail if you have the wrong VLAN tags on a switch port or DHCP isn't running where it should be for example you can get into a situation which is really hard to debug a lot of our validations actually run before the deployment they look at what you're intending to deploy and they check in the environment is the way that it should be and they'll preempts problems and obviously preemption is a lot better than debugging something new that you probably have not seen before is director managing multiple deployments of different things side by side before we came out on stage we also deployed OpenStack on this rack just to keep me honest let me jump over to OpenStack very quickly a lot of our opens that customers will be familiar with this UI and the bare metal deployment of OpenStack on our rack is actually running a set of virtual machines which is running Gluster you're going to see that put to work later on during the summit Jay's gone to an awful lot effort to get this Hardware up on the stage so we're going to use it as many different ways as we can okay let's deploy OpenShift if I switch over to the deployed a deployment plan view there's a few steps first thing you need to do is make sure we have the hardware I already talked about how director manages hardware it's smart enough to make sure that it's not going to attempt to deploy into machines they're already in use it's only going to deploy on machines that have the right profile but I think with the rack that we have here we've got enough next thing is the deployment configuration this is where you get to customize exactly what's going to be deployed to make sure that it really matches your environment if they're external IPs for additional services you can set them here whatever it takes to make sure that the deployment is going to work for you as you can see on the screen we have a set of options around enable TLS for encryption network traffic if I dig a little deeper there are options around enabling ipv6 and network isolation so that different classes of traffic there are over different physical NICs okay then then we have roles now roles this is essentially about the software that's going to be put on each machine director comes with a set of roles for a lot of the software that RedHat supports and you can just use those or you can modify them a little bit if you need to add a monitoring agent or whatever it might be or you can create your own custom roles director has quite a rich syntax for custom role definition and custom Network topologies whatever it is you need in order to make it work in your environment so the rawls that we have right now are going to give us a working instance of openshift if I go ahead and click through the validations are all looking green so right now I can click the button start to the deploy and you will see things lighting up on the rack directors going to use IPMI to reboot the machines provisioned and with a trail image was the containers on them and start up the application stack okay so one last thing once the deployment is done you're going to want to keep director around director has a lot of capabilities around what we call de to operational management bringing in new Hardware scaling out deployments dealing with updates and critically doing upgrades as well so having said all of that it is time for me to switch over to an instance of openshift deployed by a director running on bare metal on our rack and I need to hand this over to our developer team so they can show what they can do it thank you that is so awesome Angus so what you've seen now is going from bare metal to the ultimate private cloud with OpenStack director make an open shift ready for our developers to build their next generation applications thank you so much guys that was totally awesome I love what you guys showed there now I have the honor now I have the honor of introducing a very special guest one of our earliest OpenShift customers who understands the necessity of the private cloud inside their organization and more importantly they're fundamentally redefining their industry please extend a warm welcome to deep mar Foster from Amadeus well good morning everyone a big thank you for having armadillos here and myself so as it was just set I'm at Mario's well first of all we are a large IT provider in the travel industry so serving essentially Airlines hotel chains this distributors like Expedia and others we indeed we started very early what was OpenShift like a bit more than three years ago and we jumped on it when when Retta teamed with Google to bring in kubernetes into this so let me quickly share a few figures about our Mario's to give you like a sense of what we are doing and the scale of our operations so some of our key KPIs one of our key metrics is what what we call passenger borders so that's the number of customers that physically board a plane over the year so through our systems it's roughly 1.6 billion people checking in taking the aircrafts on under the Amarillo systems close to 600 million travel agency bookings virtually all airlines are on the system and one figure I want to stress out a little bit is this one trillion availability requests per day that's when I read this figure my mind boggles a little bit so this means in continuous throughput more than 10 million hits per second so of course these are not traditional database transactions it's it's it's highly cached in memory and these applications are running over like more than 100,000 course so it's it's it's really big stuff so today I want to give some concrete feedback what we are doing so I have chosen two applications products of our Mario's that are currently running on production in different in different hosting environments as the theme here is of this talk hybrid cloud and so I want to give some some concrete feedback of how we architect the applications and of course it stays relatively high level so here I have taken one of our applications that is used in the hospitality environment so it's we have built this for a very large US hotel chain and it's currently in in full swing brought into production so like 30 percent of the globe or 5,000 plus hotels are on this platform not so here you can see that we use as the path of course on openshift on that's that's the most central piece of our hybrid cloud strategy on the database side we use Oracle and Couchbase Couchbase is used for the heavy duty fast access more key value store but also to replicate data across two data centers in this case it's running over to US based data centers east and west coast topology that are fit so run by Mario's that are fit with VMware on for the virtualization OpenStack on top of it and then open shift to host and welcome the applications on the right hand side you you see the kind of tools if you want to call them tools that we use these are the principal ones of course the real picture is much more complex but in essence we use terraform to map to the api's of the underlying infrastructure so they are obviously there are differences when you run on OpenStack or the Google compute engine or AWS Azure so some some tweaking is needed we use right at ansible a lot we also use puppet so you can see these are really the big the big pieces of of this sense installation and if we look to the to the topology again very high high level so these two locations basically map the data centers of our customers so they are in close proximity because the response time and the SLA is of this application is are very tight so that's an example of an application that is architectures mostly was high ability and high availability in minds not necessarily full global worldwide scaling but of course it could be scaled but here the idea is that we can swing from one data center to the unit to the other in matters of of minutes both take traffic data is fully synchronized across those data centers and while the switch back and forth is very fast the second example I have taken is what we call the shopping box this is when people go to kayak or Expedia and they're getting inspired where they want to travel to this is really the piece that shoots most of transit of the transactions into our Mario's so we architect here more for high scalability of course availability is also a key but here scaling and geographical spread is very important so in short it runs partially on-premise in our Amarillo Stata Center again on OpenStack and we we deploy it mostly in the first step on the Google compute engine and currently as we speak on Amazon on AWS and we work also together with Retta to qualify the whole show on Microsoft Azure here in this application it's it's the same building blocks there is a large swimming aspect to it so we bring Kafka into this working with records and another partner to bring Kafka on their open shift because at the end we want to use open shift to administrate the whole show so over time also databases and the topology here when you look to the physical deployment topology while it's very classical we use the the regions and the availability zone concept so this application is spread over three principal continental regions and so it's again it's a high-level view with different availability zones and in each of those availability zones we take a hit of several 10,000 transactions so that was it really in very short just to give you a glimpse on how we implement hybrid clouds I think that's the way forward it gives us a lot of freedom and it allows us to to discuss in a much more educated way with our customers that sometimes have already deals in place with one cloud provider or another so for us it's a lot of value to set two to leave them the choice basically what up that was a very quick overview of what we are doing we were together with records are based on open shift essentially here and more and more OpenStack coming into the picture hope you found this interesting thanks a lot and have a nice summer [Applause] thank you so much deeper great great solution we've worked with deep Marv and his team for a long for a long time great solution so I want to take us back a little bit I want to circle back I sort of ended talking a little bit about the public cloud so let's circle back there you know even so even though some applications need to run in various footprints on premise there's still great gains to be had that for running certain applications in the public cloud a public cloud will be as impactful to to the industry as as UNIX era was of computing was but by itself it'll have some of the same limitations and challenges that that model had today there's tremendous cloud innovation happening in the public cloud it's being driven by a handful of massive companies and much like the innovation that sundeck HP and others drove in a you in the UNIX era of community of computing many customers want to take advantage of the best innovation no matter where it comes from buddy but as they even eventually saw in the UNIX era they can't afford the best innovation at the cost of a siloed operating environment with the open community we are building a hybrid application platform that can give you access to the best innovation no matter which vendor or which cloud that it comes from letting public cloud providers innovate and services beyond what customers or anyone can one provider can do on their own such as large scale learning machine learning or artificial intelligence built on the data that's unique probably to that to that one cloud but consumed in a common way for the end customer across all applications in any environment on any footprint in in their overall IT infrastructure this is exactly what rel brought brought to our customers in the UNIX era of computing that consistency across any of those footprints obviously enterprises will have applications for all different uses some will live on premise some in the cloud hybrid cloud is the only practical way forward I think you've been hearing that from us for a long time it is the only practical way forward and it'll be as impactful as anything we've ever seen before I want to bring Byrne his team back to see a hybrid cloud deployment in action burr [Music] all right earlier you saw what we did with taking bare metal and lighting it up with OpenStack director and making it openshift ready for developers to build their next generation applications now we want to show you when those next turn and generation applications and what we've done is we take an open shift and spread it out and installed it across Asia and Amazon a true hybrid cloud so with me on stage today as Ted who's gonna walk us through an application and Brent Midwood who's our DevOps engineer who's gonna be making sure he's monitoring on the backside that we do make sure we do a good job so at this point Ted what have you got for us Thank You BER and good morning everybody this morning we are running on the stage in our private cloud an application that's providing its providing fraud detection detect serves for financial transactions and our customer base is rather large and we occasionally take extended bursts of traffic of heavy traffic load so in order to keep our latency down and keep our customers happy we've deployed extra service capacity in the public cloud so we have capacity with Microsoft Azure in Texas and with Amazon Web Services in Ohio so we use open chip container platform on all three locations because openshift makes it easy for us to deploy our containerized services wherever we want to put them but the question still remains how do we establish seamless communication across our entire enterprise and more importantly how do we balance the workload across these three locations in such a way that we efficiently use our resources and that we give our customers the best possible experience so this is where Red Hat amq interconnect comes in as you can see we've deployed a MQ interconnect alongside our fraud detection applications in all three locations and if I switch to the MQ console we'll see the topology of the app of the network that we've created here so the router inside the on stage here has made connections outbound to the public routers and AWS and Azure these connections are secured using mutual TLS authentication and encrypt and once these connections are established amq figures out the best way auda matically to route traffic to where it needs to get to so what we have right now is a distributed reliable broker list message bus that expands our entire enterprise now if you want to learn more about this make sure that you catch the a MQ breakout tomorrow at 11:45 with Jack Britton and David Ingham let's have a look at the message flow and we'll dive in and isolate the fraud detection API that we're interested in and what we see is that all the traffic is being handled in the private cloud that's what we expect because our latencies are low and they're acceptable but now if we take a little bit of a burst of increased traffic we're gonna see that an EQ is going to push a little a bi traffic out onto the out to the public cloud so as you're picking up some of the load now to keep the Layton sees down now when that subsides as your finishes up what it's doing and goes back offline now if we take a much bigger load increase you'll see two things first of all asher is going to take a bigger proportion than it did before and Amazon Web Services is going to get thrown into the fray as well now AWS is actually doing less work than I expected it to do I expected a little bit of bigger a slice there but this is a interesting illustration of what's going on for load balancing mq load balancing is sending requests to the services that have the lowest backlog and in order to keep the Layton sees as steady as possible so AWS is probably running slowly for some reason and that's causing a and Q to push less traffic its way now the other thing you're going to notice if you look carefully this graph fluctuate slightly and those fluctuations are caused by all the variances in the network we have the cloud on stage and we have clouds in in the various places across the country there's a lot of equipment locked layers of virtualization and networking in between and we're reacting in real-time to the reality on the digital street so BER what's the story with a to be less I noticed there's a problem right here right now we seem to have a little bit performance issue so guys I noticed that as well and a little bit ago I actually got an alert from red ahead of insights letting us know that there might be some potential optimizations we could make to our environment so let's take a look at insights so here's the Red Hat insights interface you can see our three OpenShift deployments so we have the set up here on stage in San Francisco we have our Azure deployment in Texas and we also have our AWS deployment in Ohio and insights is highlighting that that deployment in Ohio may have some issues that need some attention so Red Hat insights collects anonymized data from manage systems across our customer environment and that gives us visibility into things like vulnerabilities compliance configuration assessment and of course Red Hat subscription consumption all of this is presented in a SAS offering so it's really really easy to use it requires minimal infrastructure upfront and it provides an immediate return on investment what insights is showing us here is that we have some potential issues on the configuration side that may need some attention from this view I actually get a look at all the systems in our inventory including instances and containers and you can see here on the left that insights is highlighting one of those instances as needing some potential attention it might be a candidate for optimization this might be related to the issues that you were seeing just a minute ago insights uses machine learning and AI techniques to analyze all collected data so we combine collected data from not only the system's configuration but also with other systems from across the Red Hat customer base this allows us to compare ourselves to how we're doing across the entire set of industries including our own vertical in this case the financial services industry and we can compare ourselves to other customers we also get access to tailored recommendations that let us know what we can do to optimize our systems so in this particular case we're actually detecting an issue here where we are an outlier so our configuration has been compared to other configurations across the customer base and in this particular instance in this security group were misconfigured and so insights actually gives us the steps that we need to use to remediate the situation and the really neat thing here is that we actually get access to a custom ansible playbook so if we want to automate that type of a remediation we can use this inside of Red Hat ansible tower Red Hat satellite Red Hat cloud forms it's really really powerful the other thing here is that we can actually apply these recommendations right from within the Red Hat insights interface so with just a few clicks I can select all the recommendations that insights is making and using that built-in ansible automation I can apply those recommendations really really quickly across a variety of systems this type of intelligent automation is really cool it's really fast and powerful so really quickly here we're going to see the impact of those changes and so we can tell that we're doing a little better than we were a few minutes ago when compared across the customer base as well as within the financial industry and if we go back and look at the map we should see that our AWS employment in Ohio is in a much better state than it was just a few minutes ago so I'm wondering Ted if this had any effect and might be helping with some of the issues that you were seeing let's take a look looks like went green now let's see what it looks like over here yeah doesn't look like the configuration is taking effect quite yet maybe there's some delay awesome fantastic the man yeah so now we're load balancing across the three clouds very much fantastic well I have two minute Ted I truly love how we can route requests and dynamically load transactions across these three clouds a truly hybrid cloud native application you guys saw here on on stage for the first time and it's a fully portable application if you build your applications with openshift you can mover from cloud to cloud to cloud on stage private all the way out to the public said it's totally awesome we also have the application being fully managed by Red Hat insights I love having that intelligence watching over us and ensuring that we're doing everything correctly that is fundamentally awesome thank you so much for that well we actually have more to show you but you're going to wait a few minutes longer right now we'd like to welcome Paul back to the stage and we have a very special early Red Hat customer an Innovation Award winner from 2010 who's been going boldly forward with their open hybrid cloud strategy please give a warm welcome to Monty Finkelstein from Citigroup [Music] [Music] hi Marty hey Paul nice to see you thank you very much for coming so thank you for having me Oh our pleasure if you if you wanted to we sort of wanted to pick your brain a little bit about your experiences and sort of leading leading the charge in computing here so we're all talking about hybrid cloud how has the hybrid cloud strategy influenced where you are today in your computing environment so you know when we see the variable the various types of workload that we had an hour on from cloud we see the peaks we see the valleys we see the demand on the environment that we have we really determined that we have to have a much more elastic more scalable capability so we can burst and stretch our environments to multiple cloud providers these capabilities have now been proven at City and of course we consider what the data risk is as well as any regulatory requirement so how do you how do you tackle the complexity of multiple cloud environments so every cloud provider has its own unique set of capabilities they have they're own api's distributions value-added services we wanted to make sure that we could arbitrate between the different cloud providers maintain all source code and orchestration capabilities on Prem to drive those capabilities from within our platforms this requires controlling the entitlements in a cohesive fashion across our on Prem and Wolfram both for security services automation telemetry as one seamless unit can you talk a bit about how you decide when you to use your own on-premise infrastructure versus cloud resources sure so there are multiple dimensions that we take into account right so the first dimension we talk about the risk so low risk - high risk and and really that's about the data classification of the environment we're talking about so whether it's public or internal which would be considered low - ooh confidential PII restricted sensitive and so on and above which is really what would be considered a high-risk the second dimension would be would focus on demand volatility and responsiveness sensitivity so this would range from low response sensitivity and low variability of the type of workload that we have to the high response sensitivity and high variability of the workload the first combination that we focused on is the low risk and high variability and high sensitivity for response type workload of course any of the workloads we ensure that we're regulatory compliant as well as we achieve customer benefits with within this environment so how can we give developers greater control of their their infrastructure environments and still help operations maintain that consistency in compliance so the main driver is really to use the public cloud is scale speed and increased developer efficiencies as well as reducing cost as well as risk this would mean providing develop workspaces and multiple environments for our developers to quickly create products for our customers all this is done of course in a DevOps model while maintaining the source and artifacts registry on-prem this would allow our developers to test and select various middleware products another product but also ensure all the compliance activities in a centrally controlled repository so we really really appreciate you coming by and sharing that with us today Monte thank you so much for coming to the red echo thanks a lot thanks again tamati I mean you know there's these real world insight into how our products and technologies are really running the businesses today that's that's just the most exciting part so thank thanks thanks again mati no even it with as much progress as you've seen demonstrated here and you're going to continue to see all week long we're far from done so I want to just take us a little bit into the path forward and where we we go today we've talked about this a lot innovation today is driven by open source development I don't think there's any question about that certainly not in this room and even across the industry as a whole that's a long way that we've come from when we started our first summit 14 years ago with over a million open source projects out there this unit this innovation aggregates into various community platforms and it finally culminates in commercial open source based open source developed products these products run many of the mission-critical applications in business today you've heard just a couple of those today here on stage but it's everywhere it's running the world today but to make customers successful with that interact innovation to run their real-world business applications these open source products have to be able to leverage increase increasingly complex infrastructure footprints we must also ensure a common base for the developer and ultimately the application no matter which footprint they choose as you heard mati say the developers want choice here no matter which no matter which footprint they are ultimately going to run their those applications on they want that flexibility from the data center to possibly any public cloud out there in regardless of whether that application was built yesterday or has been running the business for the last 10 years and was built on 10-year old technology this is the flexibility that developers require today but what does different infrastructure we may require different pieces of the technical stack in that deployment one example of this that Effects of many things as KVM which provides the foundation for many of those use cases that require virtualization KVM offers a level of consistency from a technical perspective but rel extends that consistency to add a level of commercial and ecosystem consistency for the application across all those footprints this is very important in the enterprise but while rel and KVM formed the foundation other technologies are needed to really satisfy the functions on these different footprints traditional virtualization has requirements that are satisfied by projects like overt and products like Rev traditional traditional private cloud implementations has requirements that are satisfied on projects like OpenStack and products like Red Hat OpenStack platform and as applications begin to become more container based we are seeing many requirements driven driven natively into containers the same Linux in different forms provides this common base across these four footprints this level of compatible compatibility is critical to operators who must best utilize the infinite must better utilize secure and deploy the infrastructure that they have and they're responsible for developers on the other hand they care most about having a platform that can creates that consistency for their applications they care about their services and the services that they need to consume within those applications and they don't want limitations on where they run they want service but they want it anywhere not necessarily just from Amazon they want integration between applications no matter where they run they still want to run their Java EE now named Jakarta EE apps and bring those applications forward into containers and micro services they need able to orchestrate these frameworks and many more across all these different footprints in a consistent secure fashion this creates natural tension between development and operations frankly customers amplify this tension with organizational boundaries that are holdover from the UNIX era of computing it's really the job of our platforms to seamlessly remove these boundaries and it's the it's the goal of RedHat to seamlessly get you from the old world to the new world we're gonna show you a really cool demo demonstration now we're gonna show you how you can automate this transition first we're gonna take a Windows virtual machine from a traditional VMware deployment we're gonna convert it into a KVM based virtual machine running in a container all under the kubernetes umbrella this makes virtual machines more access more accessible to the developer this will accelerate the transformation of those virtual machines into cloud native container based form well we will work this prot we will worked as capability over the product line in the coming releases so we can strike the balance of enabling our developers to move in this direction we want to be able to do this while enabling mission-critical operations to still do their job so let's bring Byrne his team back up to show you this in action for one more thanks all right what Red Hat we recognized that large organizations large enterprises have a substantial investment and legacy virtualization technology and this is holding you back you have thousands of virtual machines that need to be modernized so what you're about to see next okay it's something very special with me here on stage we have James Lebowski he's gonna be walking us through he's represents our operations folks and he's gonna be walking us through a mass migration but also is Itamar Hine who's our lead developer of a very special application and he's gonna be modernizing container izing and optimizing our application all right so let's get started James thanks burr yeah so as you can see I have a typical VMware environment here I'm in the vSphere client I've got a number of virtual machines a handful of them that make up my one of my applications for my development environment in this case and what I want to do is migrate those over to a KVM based right at virtualization environment so what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna go to cloud forms our cloud management platform that's our first step and you know cloud forms actually already has discovered both my rev environment and my vSphere environment and understands the compute network and storage there so you'll notice one of the capabilities we built is this new capability called migrations and underneath here I could begin to there's two steps and the first thing I need to do is start to create my infrastructure mappings what this will allow me to do is map my compute networking storage between vSphere and Rev so cloud forms understands how those relate let's go ahead and create an infrastructure mapping I'll call that summit infrastructure mapping and then I'm gonna begin to map my two environments first the compute so the clusters here next the data stores so those virtual machines happen to live on datastore - in vSphere and I'll target them a datastore data to inside of my revenue Arman and finally my networks those live on network 100 so I'll map those from vSphere to rover so once my infrastructure is map the next step I need to do is actually begin to create a plan to migrate those virtual machines so I'll continue to the plan wizard here I'll select the infrastructure mapping I just created and I'll select migrate my development environment from those virtual machines to Rev and then I need to import a CSV file the CSV file is going to contain a list of all the virtual machines that I want to migrate that were there and that's it once I hit create what's going to happen cloud forms is going to begin in an automated fashion shutting down those virtual machines begin converting them taking care of all the minutia that you'd have to do manually it's gonna do that all automatically for me so I don't have to worry about all those manual interactions and no longer do I have to go manually shut them down but it's going to take care of that all for me you can see the migrations kicked off here this is the I've got the my VMs are migrating here and if I go back to the screen here you can see that we're gonna start seeing those shutdown okay awesome but as people want to know more information about this how would they dive deeper into this technology later this week yeah it's a great question so we have a workload portability session in the hybrid cloud on Wednesday if you want to see a presentation that deep dives into this topic and how some of the methodologies to migrate and then on Thursday we actually have a hands-on lab it's the IT optimization VM migration lab that you can check out and as you can see those are shutting down here yeah we see a powering off right now that's fantastic absolutely so if I go back now that's gonna take a while you got to convert all the disks and move them over but we'll notice is previously I had already run one migration of a single application that was a Windows virtual machine running and if I browse over to Red Hat virtualization I can see on the dashboard here I could browse to virtual machines I have migrated that Windows virtual machine and if I open up a tab I can now browse to my Windows virtual machine which is running our wingtip toy store application our sample application here and now my VM has been moved over from Rev to Vita from VMware to Rev and is available for Itamar all right great available to our developers all right Itamar what are you gonna do for us here well James it's great that you can save cost by moving from VMware to reddit virtualization but I want to containerize our application and with container native virtualization I can run my virtual machine on OpenShift like any other container using Huebert a kubernetes operator to run and manage virtual machines let's look at the open ship service catalog you can see we have a new virtualization section here we can import KVM or VMware virtual machines or if there are already loaded we can create new instances of them for the developer to work with just need to give named CPU memory we can do other virtualization parameters and create our virtual machines now let's see how this looks like in the openshift console the cool thing about KVM is virtual machines are just Linux processes so they can act and behave like other open shipped applications we build in more than a decade of virtualization experience with KVM reddit virtualization and OpenStack and can now benefit from kubernetes and open shift to manage and orchestrate our virtual machines since we know this virtual machine this container is actually a virtual machine we can do virtual machine stuff with it like shutdown reboot or open a remote desktop session to it but we can also see this is just a container like any other container in openshift and even though the web application is running inside a Windows virtual machine the developer can still use open shift mechanisms like services and routes let's browse our web application using the OpenShift service it's the same wingtip toys application but this time the virtual machine is running on open shift but we're not done we want to containerize our application since it's a Windows virtual machine we can open a remote desktop session to it we see we have here Visual Studio and an asp.net application let's start container izing by moving the Microsoft sequel server database from running inside the Windows virtual machine to running on Red Hat Enterprise Linux as an open shipped container we'll go back to the open shipped Service Catalog this time we'll go to the database section and just as easily we'll create a sequel server container just need to accept the EULA provide password and choose the Edition we want and create a database and again we can see the sequel server is just another container running on OpenShift now let's take let's find the connection details for our database to keep this simple we'll take the IP address of our database service go back to the web application to visual studio update the IP address in the connection string publish our application and go back to browse it through OpenShift fortunately for us the user experience team heard we're modernizing our application so they pitched in and pushed new icons to use with our containerized database to also modernize the look and feel it's still the same wingtip toys application it's running in a virtual machine on openshift but it's now using a containerized database to recap we saw that we can run virtual machines natively on openshift like any other container based application modernize and mesh them together we containerize the database but we can use the same approach to containerize any part of our application so some items here to deserve repeating one thing you saw is Red Hat Enterprise Linux burning sequel server in a container on open shift and you also saw Windows VM where the dotnet native application also running inside of open ships so tell us what's special about that that seems pretty crazy what you did there exactly burr if we take a look under the hood we can use the kubernetes commands to see the list of our containers in this case the sequel server and the virtual machine containers but since Q Bert is a kubernetes operator we can actually use kubernetes commands like cube Cpl to list our virtual machines and manage our virtual machines like any other entity in kubernetes I love that so there's your crew meta gem oh we can see the kind says virtual machine that is totally awesome now people here are gonna be very excited about what they just saw we're gonna get more information and when will this be coming well you know what can they do to dive in this will be available as part of reddit Cloud suite in tech preview later this year but we are looking for early adopters now so give us a call also come check our deep dive session introducing container native virtualization Thursday 2:00 p.m. awesome that is so incredible so we went from the old to the new from the close to the open the Red Hat way you're gonna be seeing more from our demonstration team that's coming Thursday at 8 a.m. do not be late if you like what you saw this today you're gonna see a lot more of that going forward so we got some really special things in store for you so at this point thank you so much in tomorrow thank you so much you guys are awesome yeah now we have one more special guest a very early adopter of Red Hat Enterprise Linux we've had over a 12-year partnership and relationship with this organization they've been a steadfast Linux and middleware customer for many many years now please extend a warm welcome to Raj China from the Royal Bank of Canada thank you thank you it's great to be here RBC is a large global full-service is back we have the largest bank in Canada top 10 global operate in 30 countries and run five key business segments personal commercial banking investor in Treasury services capital markets wealth management and insurance but honestly unless you're in the banking segment those five business segments that I just mentioned may not mean a lot to you but what you might appreciate is the fact that we've been around in business for over 150 years we started our digital transformation journey about four years ago and we are focused on new and innovative technologies that will help deliver the capabilities and lifestyle our clients are looking for we have a very simple vision and we often refer to it as the digitally enabled bank of the future but as you can appreciate transforming a hundred fifty year old Bank is not easy it certainly does not happen overnight to that end we had a clear unwavering vision a very strong innovation agenda and most importantly a focus towards a flawless execution today in banking business strategy and IT strategy are one in the same they are not two separate things we believe that in order to be the number one bank we have to have the number one tactic there is no question that most of today's innovations happens in the open source community RBC relies on RedHat as a key partner to help us consume these open source innovations in a manner that it meets our enterprise needs RBC was an early adopter of Linux we operate one of the largest footprints of rel in Canada same with tables we had tremendous success in driving cost out of infrastructure by partnering with rahat while at the same time delivering a world-class hosting service to your business over our 12 year partnership Red Hat has proven that they have mastered the art of working closely with the upstream open source community understanding the needs of an enterprise like us in delivering these open source innovations in a manner that we can consume and build upon we are working with red hat to help increase our agility and better leverage public and private cloud offerings we adopted virtualization ansible and containers and are excited about continuing our partnership with Red Hat in this journey throughout this journey we simply cannot replace everything we've had from the past we have to bring forward these investments of the past and improve upon them with new and emerging technologies it is about utilizing emerging technologies but at the same time focusing on the business outcome the business outcome for us is serving our clients and delivering the information that they are looking for whenever they need it and in whatever form factor they're looking for but technology improvements alone are simply not sufficient to do a digital transformation creating the right culture of change and adopting new methodologies is key we introduced agile and DevOps which has boosted the number of adult projects at RBC and increase the frequency at which we do new releases to our mobile app as a matter of fact these methodologies have enabled us to deliver apps over 20x faster than before the other point about around culture that I wanted to mention was we wanted to build an engineering culture an engineering culture is one which rewards curiosity trying new things investing in new technologies and being a leader not necessarily a follower Red Hat has been a critical partner in our journey to date as we adopt elements of open source culture in engineering culture what you seen today about red hearts focus on new technology innovations while never losing sight of helping you bring forward the investments you've already made in the past is something that makes Red Hat unique we are excited to see red arts investment in leadership in open source technologies to help bring the potential of these amazing things together thank you that's great the thing you know seeing going from the old world to the new with automation so you know the things you've seen demonstrated today they're they're they're more sophisticated than any one company could ever have done on their own certainly not by using a proprietary development model because of this it's really easy to see why open source has become the center of gravity for enterprise computing today with all the progress open-source has made we're constantly looking for new ways of accelerating that into our products so we can take that into the enterprise with customers like these that you've met what you've met today now we recently made in addition to the Red Hat family we brought in core OS to the Red Hat family and you know adding core OS has really been our latest move to accelerate that innovation into our products this will help the adoption of open shift container platform even deeper into the enterprise and as we did with the Linux core platform in 2002 this is just exactly what we did with with Linux back then today we're announcing some exciting new technology directions first we'll integrate the benefits of automated operations so for example you'll see dramatic improvements in the automated intelligence about the state of your clusters in OpenShift with the core OS additions also as part of open shift will include a new variant of rel called Red Hat core OS maintaining the consistency of rel farhat for the operation side of the house while allowing for a consumption of over-the-air updates from the kernel to kubernetes later today you'll hear how we are extending automated operations beyond customers and even out to partners all of this starting with the next release of open shift in July now all of this of course will continue in an upstream open source innovation model that includes continuing container linux for the community users today while also evolving the commercial products to bring that innovation out to the enterprise this this combination is really defining the platform of the future everything we've done for the last 16 years since we first brought rel to the commercial market because get has been to get us just to this point hybrid cloud computing is now being deployed multiple times in enterprises every single day all powered by the open source model and powered by the open source model we will continue to redefine the software industry forever no in 2002 with all of you we made Linux the choice for enterprise computing this changed the innovation model forever and I started the session today talking about our prediction of seven years ago on the future being open we've all seen so much happen in those in those seven years we at Red Hat have celebrated our 25th anniversary including 16 years of rel and the enterprise it's now 2018 open hybrid cloud is not only a reality but it is the driving model in enterprise computing today and this hybrid cloud world would not even be possible without Linux as a platform in the open source development model a build around it and while we have think we may have accomplished a lot in that time and we may think we have changed the world a lot we have but I'm telling you the best is yet to come now that Linux and open source software is firmly driving that innovation in the enterprise what we've accomplished today and up till now has just set the stage for us together to change the world once again and just as we did with rel more than 15 years ago with our partners we will make hybrid cloud the default in the enterprise and I will take that bet every single day have a great show and have fun watching the future of computing unfold right in front of your eyes see you later [Applause] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] anytime [Music]

Keynote Analysis | Day 1 | Red Hat Summit 2018


 

>> Announcer: Live from San Francisco, it's theCUBE. Covering Red Hat Summit 2018. Brought to you by Red Hat. >> Hello everyone, welcome to theCUBE's special coverage here at Red Hat Summit. This is exclusive three days of wall-to-wall coverage of theCUBE. I've been covering Red Hat for years. Excited to be back here at Moscone West. I'm John Furrier, the co-host of theCUBE, with my co-host analyst this week, John Troyer. He's the CEO of TechReckoning, an advisory firm in the technology industry as well as an influencer, and he advises on influencer and influencer of communities. I would say it's community focused. John, great to see you. Welcome to the Red Hat Summit. We're going to kick it off! >> Great to be here. Thanks for having me. >> So you know I am pretty bullish on open source. I have been from day one. At my age who have lived through the wars of when it was second class citizen. Now it's first class citizen. Software power in the world. Again, on and on, this is not a new story. What is the new story is the cloud impact to the world of open source and business. We're seeing the results of Amazon just continue to be skyrocketing. You see Microsoft as you're having their developer conference of Microsoft Build this week. Google I/O is also this week. There is a variety of events happening. It's all pointing to cloud economics, cloud scale, and the role of software and data, and Red Hat has been a big time winner in taking advantage of these trends by making some good bets. >> Absolutely. I think one of the words were going to hear a lot this week is OpenShift. They are a container and cloud platform. Hybrid cloud is a super big emphasis here. Hybrid cloud, multi cloud already on stage at the first key note. They had a big stack of machines and they were going out to a multi cloud deployment right there on stage. Open source, also huge this week, right? The key note, the tagline, of the whole conference, if you are interested in open source, you should be here. I think you nailed it. It's going to be about multi cloud. >> It's exciting for me, I got to say. The disruption that's happening obviously with IT, with cloud, is pretty much out there. We pretty much recognize IT as transforming into a whole other look in terms of how it's operating, but the interesting thing that's just happening recently is the overwhelming takeover of Kubernetes and the conversation and in the stack you're seeing a rallying point and a rallying cry and establishing a de facto standard of Kubernetes. The big news of 2018 is, to me, the de facto standard of Kubernetes across a multi cloud, hybrid cloud architecture to allow developers and also infrastructure providers the ability to move workloads around, managing workloads across clouds. This is kind of the holy grail outcome everyone's looking for is how do I get to a true multi cloud world? And I think Kubernetes this year has the stake in the ground to say we're going to make that the interoperable capability. And Red Hat made a bet a couple years ago, three, four years ago. Everyone was scratching their head. What the hell are they doing with Kubernetes? What's Red Hat-- They're looking like geniuses now because of the results. >> Absolutely. In fact, I think by the end my joke is going to be this is the OpenShift Summit. I'll be very interested, John in your observations. You were at KubeCon last week. So that's the open source project and the ecosystem around Kubernetes. Red Hat owns a lot of Kubernetes. Red Hat employs many of the Kubernetes' leaders. They have really taken over from Google in a lot of ways about the implementation and go-forward path for Kubernetes. So this is the show that takes that open source project and packages it into something that an IT buyer can understand and take. >> I got to say one of the things that is interesting, and this is not well-reported in the news. It's a nuanced point but it's kind of an interesting thing, I think an inflection point for Red Hat. By them buying CoreOS has been a really good outcome for both companies. CoreOS, pure open source DNA in that business. Those guys were doing some amazing technology development, and again, all pure open source. Total pure. There is nothing wrong with being a pure open source. My point is, when you have that kind of religious point of view and then the pressure to monetize it Docker has had. We know what happened there. So CoreOS was doing amazing things but it kind of took a lot of pressure from the market. How are you going to make money? You know I always say it's hard to make money when you're trying to do it too early. So CoreOS lands at Red Hat who has generations of commercialization. Those two together is really going to give Red Hat the capability to go to the next level when you talk about applications. It's going to increase their total addressable market. It's going to give them more range. And with Kubernetes becoming the de facto standard, OpenShift now can become a key platform as a service that really enables new applications, new management capabilities. This should expand the RHEL opportunity from a market standpoint in a significant, meaningful way. I think if you're like a financial analyst or you're out there looking at this going, hmm, where's the dots connecting? It's connecting up the stack, software to service, with DevOps, with cloud native, Red Hat is positioned well. So that's my takeaway from KubeCon. >> Interesting. Yeah, before we move away from CoreOS, a lot of announcements today about how Red Hat will be incorporating CoreOS technologies into their platform. They talked about the operator framework. I think one of the bigger pieces of news is that CoreOS' OS, called Container Linux changes its name back to CoreOS and will now be the standard container operating system for Red Hat. That's kind of big news because Red Hat had its own atomic host, its own kind of micro, mini Linux distribution and so now they're switching over to that. They also talked about Tectonic, which actually is a really good automated operations stack, some of those technologies. In the future they will be incorporated into OpenShift. So they were talking a little bit about futures but it at least they've given a roadmap. No one was quite sure what the super-smart rocket scientists at CoreOS were doing here and so now we know a little more. >> And also at KubeCon they announced the open source of the operator framework. It's an open source toolkit for managing Kubernetes clusters. Again, and first of all, I love the CoreOS name. This is all about what Red Hat is doing. Now let's not forget the ecosystem that Red Hat has. So you're talking about a company that's been successful in open source for multiple generations now. Looking forward to this next generation modern infrastructure, you're seeing the stack look completely different with the cloud. If you look at all the presentations from Amazon, Google, Microsoft, the stack is not the old stack. It's a new concept. New things are happening so you've got to swap some pieces out. You get CoreOS, you bring that in, new puzzle piece. But look at the deals they're doing. They did a relationship with IBM, so IBM's back into the fold with Red Hat joining forces. >> Containerizing some of their biggest components like WebLogic and Dv2 and MQ. >> I think the containerization will create a nice compatibility mode, bring these old legacy apps into a modern cloud native architecture and gives that an opportunity to kind of get into the game, but also bring cloud native to the table. >> Absolutely. >> You've got IoT Edge, all these new applications. You just can't go anywhere without hearing about Internet of Things, machine learning, AI, cameras, whatnot. All this is happening. >> Absolutely. So we're going to break it down all week for the next three days. Red Hat Summit. It's all about containers, it's all about the Linux moment, kind of going to the next level. Cloud native, big time data action. All the great stuff happening. All done with open source with projects with new products being commercialized from these projects. This is the open source ethos. This is of course theCUBE coverage. We'll be back with more live coverage here in San Francisco at Moscone West after this short break.

Day One Kickoff - Red Hat Summit 2017 - #RHSummit - #theCUBE


 

>> Announcer: Live from Boston, Massachusetts, it's theCUBE, covering Red Hat Summit 2017, brought to you by Red Hat. >> In 1993, two years before the height of Microsoft's dominance and amidst a sea of Unix competitors, Red Hat was founded. The company baked over the course of about 20 years and became a dominant open source company and is leading the trend towards cloud and hybrid cloud and containers. Welcome to Boston, everybody. Welcome to Red Hat Summit. This is theCUBE, the worldwide leader in live tech coverage. I'm here with Stu Miniman and Rebecca Knight, my co-hosts for the week, folks. Great to see you guys. Stu, this is your hundredth Red Hat Summit. >> Stu: It's only my fourth because it's the fourth of theCUBE, 13th year of the show itself, Dave, but great to be back here in Boston, you know, our home stadium for Rebecca, you, and me. Glad to have, a little gloomy today, but it's supposed to be nice weather by the time they take 4,000 of the 6,000 attendees here to Fenway on Wednesday, it's supposed to be some nice weather. Beautiful in New England, Red Hat Summit this week, OpenStack Summit next week, so great to be in the hub. >> Dave: And Rebecca, I felt like, well, first of all, great to be working with you. First time for us together. I thought the open was right in your wheelhouse. They opened with a video and the theme was can machines think. What did you make of that? >> So, what really strikes me about this conference is that it's about the technology, it's about the new, the digital transformation that Red Hat is helping facilitate all these companies making, but it's also about really reimagining the workplace of the future. The theme this year is about the individual and powering the individual. So much of what we're going to hear is about how do we engage developers to, to make this digital transformation for these companies? How do we give them the tools they need, not only just the technology, but also the change in mindset and the change in behaviors that they need, to collaborate with others, not only within their own teams, but within different parts of the organization to make these changes? >> So Red Hat's been on a tier, for anybody who follows the company, they do about 2.4 billion dollars a year in revenue, but more importantly, 3 billion dollars in bookings. Unlike many companies who are doing a shift from legacy, you know, trying to keep alive their old business and bring up the new business, Red Hat has a number of tailwinds and one of those is subscription business. Take a company like Oracle for instance, or IBM, that's shifting from a model of upfront, perpetual license into a subscription model. Red Hat, Stu, has always been there and you're seeing it in the numbers, a billion dollars plus on the balance sheet, just really great momentum. The stock price is up. What's your take on all of it? >> Dave, we've watched so many companies in technologies, where you have this huge wave of hype and then how does revenue go? Does it follow, does it peak, and then does it crash? Linux is one of those kind of slow-burn growths. I mean, I remember back, I started working with Red Hat back in 2000, and when I talked to enterprises back then, it was like, "Hey, are you using Linux?" They were like, "No." And they were like, "Wait, Bob in the back corner, "he's been using Linux stuff, "and he's doing some cool stuff." I watched over the next, you know, five to 10 years. It was a slow growth. It just kind of permeated every corner of what we did. I've mentioned, when we do this show, it's like, you know, Red Hat, a 15 billion dollar market cap or whatever, but we wouldn't have Google if it wasn't for the Linux adoption in the world today. So much of the Internet is based on that. You commented during the keynote, Dave, you look at the developer wave, the cloud wave, containers, you know, the shifting to kind of a subscription model rather than kind of the capping. All of those are things that kind of help lift Red Hat. It's where they're growing. It's why they've had 60 consecutive quarters of revenue growth. Now, it's not the 50% revenue growth like some of the cloud guys today or not explosive, but steady, solid, they're customers love them, great excitement here, great geek show, lots of hoodies and backpacks at the show here and exciting to watch. We've got lots of new technologies and announcements and things to dig into the next three days. >> It's interesting, you know, Rebecca, Stu and I had the pleasure of-- We were handing out with some big MIT brains last year in London talking about the second Machine Age and how humans have always replaced machines or machines have always replaced humans. Now, it's in the cognitive world. You see, again, the theme of this morning, a lot of it was AI related. Of course, the controversy there is that as machines replace humans, it hollows out the core of the middle class, the middle working class. But, the reality is that everything is getting digitized and those types of skills are going to be fundamental for growth in personal vocations, the economy. What do you think? >> I agree completely. I think that really the future is going to be humans and machines working side by side together. Last year, Jim Whitehurst was up here at Red Hat talking about how so much of what we still need to see from human workers is creativity, is judgment, is thought, is insight. Right now, machines still aren't quite there yet. The question is teaching machines to think and really having these two beings working together, collaborating together, and that really is where we're seeing things change. >> We talk all the time on theCUBE about companies are essentially, all companies are becoming software companies. Marc Andreessen said software's leading the world. Marc Benioff said they'll be more SAS companies coming from non-tech firms than tech firms. Behind all that, Stu, we heard a bunch of sort of geeky technologies today, but what are the things that are powering Red Hat's momentum? We talked about hybrid cloud, open source, containers. Help us unpack all that stuff. >> Yeah, so first of all, right, what is that next kind of billion dollar opportunity? One of the main pieces for Red Hat is OpenShift. Now, when we first started covering this show, it was like, ah, we know about infrastructures as a service and software as a service, but maybe platform as a service is where it's going. That's kind of where OpenShift was. Today, Paths, we said it a year or two ago, Paths is kind of passe, where OpenShift is a solution that creates a platform, that allows Red Hat to deliver newer technologies as a service. Containers and Kubernetes, I didn't hear Kubernetes mentioned in the keynote, but Red Hat is the largest enterprise contributor. It's basically Google, a bunch of independent people, and then Red Hat is a major contributor to Kubernetes, helping to drive that adoption, that whole next generation application development is where Red Hat is key, that migration to microservices. As we see that transition, it was interesting to see kind of the application discussion. It was how can we take, how can we help you build those new apps, but then how do we take our existing apps? At the Google show, at this show, and some other shows, it's been kind of the lift if shift movement, it's kind of cool again and not cool because we're doing, it's helping to take those legacy applications, move them into a more modern era and that's where OpenShift, there was like the announcement of the OpenShift.io, all the tools they have from Ansible and Jboss, all of these open source projects that Red Hat is very much a core part of that are going to help drive that next wave and help drive them-- There was an announcement, it was mentioned briefly today. I know they're going to talk more about it tomorrow, but the press release went out about a deeper partnership with Amazon Web Services. I think this is likely going to be the number one thing we talk about leaving the show, which is deeper partnership to say my application can live in AWS on OpenShift or can live in my data center on premises and still using AWS services with OpenShift. That whole hybrid or multicloud story that we built out, Red Hat's trying to make a good place why they should be there and extend for AWS because we know that that's the place that they need to compete against Microsoft with all their entire Azure play, Vmware trying to play that, so multifaceted, really interesting dynamic from a competitive standpoint. The opportunity would be billions of dollars opportunity for a company like Red Hat. >> Great, alright, we've got to wrap, but we will be covering those announcements and others. That AWS announcement knocks down all the major clouds now: Azure, Google, AWS, IBM. I guess Oracle's left., but in China. >> Stu: Support Oracle in application, but, you know. >> In terms of clouds. Alright, so keep it right there everybody. We'll be back. Wall-to-wall coverage here from Boston at the Red Hat Summit. This is theCUBE. We'll be right back.

Day One Wrap - Red Hat Summit 2017


 

>> Announcer: Live from Boston, Massachusetts, it's The Cube covering Red Hat Summit 2017. Brought to you by Red hat. >> I'm joined by my co-host, Stu Miniman. Stu, this is day one of the conference: 20 keynotes, six general sessions, people from 70 countries gathered here in Boston, Massachusetts. You are a Red Hat Summit veteran. Thoughts, impressions of the first day. What has struck you really? >> So first of all, it's like Red Hat itself. The company just keeps growing. It's just one of those, you know, strong progress. We talked a little bit over the intro this morning with Dave Vellante as, what is it, 60 quarters consecutively that the company has had revenue growth. It's like, I've worked for a lot of tech companies. It's like, I remember when I worked for (mumbles) when they were doing it (mumbles). They have a miss and the stock kind of drops. IBM, you know, has had quarter and quarter and things like this, but with all of these waves and look, Red Hat's not the biggest company out there, but they are an important player in many changes in the ecosystem. This is one of my favorite developer shows that we cover at the show. Of course, Open Source, we used to say, okay, software's leaving the world and Open Source is eating software. Red Hat's right in the middle of this. I think most people agree. There is really only one way to Red Hat. There's not going to be a Red Hat of something else. There's no one else to really capture that. They got involved at a certain point in time where they could have that model, but they've extended it. They understand what they're doing. They're getting involved in a lot of interesting technologies and there's a lot of people, like most conferences that we go to, there's a lot of passionate people that are really interested, very tech savvy group here, going into all of these breakouts. Many came yesterday for some things. They're coming for a whole week to just dig in, do demos. Down on the show floor, they've got little coating challenges and VR things. I mean there's just a lot of pieces of the show and we only get to see a part of it, but I've enjoyed the customers, the executives, and only one day of three that we're covering so far. >> It is early days in the summit, but where would you say that we are in terms of the maturity of the cloud? We heard from Jim Whitehurst, the CEO, he's going to be on the program tomorrow. He talked about how cloud strategy really is the #1 thing on customers' mind. The cloud is not new and we are really evolving and is maturing, where are we? >> Right, a couple of stats from the keynote this morning. It was 84% of customers have a cloud strategy. Now those of us in the analyst world, we might say, "Well, let's see whether they really have a strategy "they understand," and 59% have a multi-cloud environment which doesn't surprise us. Most people, the joke we used to have was, you had two types of customers, those that were using Amazon and those that didn't realize that some group was using Amazon, reminds me of a comment I made earlier, about like Linux itself. There was always, 15 years ago, big companies would be like, "oh, no, we're a Unix shop," or "we're looking at windows." No, no, no, there's the guy in the corner. He's been using Linux for awhile and that's been a big driver, so cloud absolutely is maturing. I loved, it was an interesting discussion we had with Paul Cormier towards the end of the day. We were seeing Ramgji from Google talking about how we've got the infrastructure and we've got the applications. And I'm an infrastructure guy, but I knew from day one, the reason you build infrastructures is because of your application. If I can just buy SaaS, I don't care about the infrastructure underneath it. The SaaS provider sure does. We talked a lot to SaaS providers as to how they're building their solution. If I'm using infrastructure as a service, you know, there's some I need to understand the infrastructure and there's plenty of infrastructure here, everything from, there's the storage and networking teams, Open Source is permeating every corner of the environment, so it's maturing, but in many ways it's gotten more complex. Cloud was supposed to, many of us thought, simplify the environment, but boy, it seems that many of the things that we had in previous ways as it gets more mature, gets a little bit more complex. Red Hat tries to take those pieces together, build them into solutions. We've talked about there's Red Hat Linux. Enterprise Linux is the platform that can live in many environments. Open Shift is something that allows to encapsulate all of those services, things like containers, we're working with our cloud data applications, and how I want to build them, Open Shift's going to help and you know Cooper Netties goes into the mix so Red Hat is places strategic bets, and, you know, has a strong position in the number place and has big partners. It's really interesting to see. We've had a couple on already, and we'll have many on through the week from key providers in the infrastructure and cloud players out there. >> I think the theme of this year's conference is the power of the individual, and it really is. I mean, we heard from Sam Ramji who said, "This is the age of the developer." Developers have more respect, more veneration, than ever before and yet we also heard from Sandra Rivera, it is also harder than it has ever been before to be a developer because there is just so much data and it's hard to know the difference between the good data and the bad data and where you find the right insights to make decisions that drive the business on that data and if you're a developer, you might not have the business savvy to do that, so it's a real balance here that the companies and developers themselves are trying to strike. Are they doing a good job? I mean, is it still too early? >> It's funny. When you say that it makes me think of in the machine-learning space, it's how do we get the data to train the machine to understand what is good or not, and you know, I wish they'd done that for us when we all went to college because in my job, it's always like, okay, what data can we trust? Well, if you remember from Princess Bride, it was like, with Versini, it was like, well, I know a vendor told me information, so therefore, I know I can't trust that data, but if I take someone else's data, you know, it gets very confusing as it, what I'm saying, is any single piece of data a lot of times you know you can throw that out because maybe it's good, maybe it's not, but how do I get, understand the trends, understand what's going on. I love talking to practitioners here that when they're talking about their business and the impact it's had. We had one of the customers on today was like, "Look, I deployed this, and I have like $6 million "worth of savings in my business year every year. I mean, that's hard information, hard to argue with it. Now are there other solutions that might do that? Sure, but yeah, it's challenging to understand what's good data, what's not good data. As an industry, you know, whether that's the kind of the people or the machines themselves. >> I think the other question that we're all grappling with here is that, and you talked about this earlier, just talking about the evolution of Red Hat that you've seen in coming to this summit all these years. This is a company founded in 1993. Today it has a market cap of $15 billion, 2.4 billion in revenue, nearly 8,000 employees. Can a big company, and it's a big company now, can it innovate, can it truly innovate and we heard in the keynote one of the things that Jim Whitehurst was trying to do was to cultivate a startup mindset. Is that possible? >> Yeah, it's a great question, and I know, Rebecca, you and I've been talking about this throughout the week so far as to big companies have challenges because there are the structure and the organization and what drives the business. What's interesting about Red Hat, of course, is that sure they have products, but underneath it, it's all Open Source, so community is in their DNA. As Paul Cormier said, he's like "We couldn't "buy a company and do it closed-source again." They did that a couple years ago, it didn't go well. They were going to transition it, but it's been a case study that's been written up. (talking over each other) >> Me and Jim in the room alone, yes. >> Absolutely, so what's interesting is Red Hat is more like a community in many ways. As Jim Whitehurst spoke, is the open organizations so they act more like an Open Source community than they do a company, of course, that being said, they're profitable, they have employees, they have benefits, they have locations all around the world so it's been interesting to see how Red Hat adopts certain technologies, contributes to them. You know, it would be interesting to see who else Jim Whitehurst tomorrow and say okay, you know, what is a product that was developed by Red Hat versus a project that was taken in by Red Hat, something I've seen over the last three or four years, a lot of acquisitions they made, it was, let's take Open Stack for example. There is a big survey that's done twice a year that said what are people using and what are they interested in with Open Stack, and it felt like that was the buying guide for Red Hat because it was like, "Oh, okay, here's the sent-to-us stuff, "that was pretty interesting. "Well, we can't buy Konica, we'll buy Sento West," and that comes under the umbrella. "Oh, there's this storage management piece "that actually is open source that people "are using for Open Stack, well let me buy that one, too." So Red Hat has become inquisitive, but it's to get deeper engagement in the community. They are all Open Source so always there is that balance in big companies of what do I do with R & D and what do I do with M & A? And Red Hat has done both. I think they've done a good job of moving the industry forward. Innovation is a lot of times a buzz word, but they do some good stuff. They contribute a lot. People here are very positive about what's going on. Just because they haven't created the next flying car or things like that. >> But they're on that. We heard here that they're thinking about it. I mean, I think that's also, I didn't mean to ask the question insinuating that they're not innovating, but I do think that particularly at a time where we are seeing Microsoft years of no growth, Intel, stalled growth, you know, what is Red Hat's secret sauce, and also what is going to the breaking point for these other lagging enterprise companies? When will we see some new ideas and fresh perspective? >> Yeah, it's interesting 'cause we write this whole, the shift of what's happening with cloud, the wave of the machine-learning, the augmented intelligence or artificial intelligence, how much is that going to ding the traditional companies, especially the infrastructure companies. Red Hat touches it, but they're much broader. Their growth, they're an Open Source company. It's interesting. I've seen a lot of other companies, the Open Sourced-based ones, "Oh, we're not "an Open Source company. "We're an enterprise software company," or "software company." I'm sure we asked Red Hat if they were a software company, they will say well, of course, like everything we deliver is software, but at their DNA, they are Open Source, and that kind of sets them apart from the pack even though there are other examples Dave Vellante went through this morning of other companies that are heavily involved in Open Source, struggling with that how do we monetize Open Source. >> Well, is it a problem with the business model? Why is it so challenging? >> It's a great question. The first time I interviewed Jim Whitehurst, it's like "Jim, why aren't there more billion dollar Open Source companies," and his answer was, you know, Not being flippy," he's like, "Look, selling free is hard." >> Yeah, that's a great point, but I think that we should, we need to dig a little deeper and hopefully we can get to the bottom of that by day three. >> Absolutely, and I tell ya, I'm sitting here listening to, you know, we'll be doing the Cloud Foundry Summit in June there, which is pivotal as making a lot of money with that, but most of the other companies not doing so much. We were just a Docker Con. A couple weeks ago, Docker Company seems to be growing, doing well. They just changed their CEO today so hot news out on SiliconANGLE.com. Ben Golub, the CEO, I just interviewed him a couple weeks ago and now he's moving the board, but they're bringing the Chairman of the Board to be CEO, so we look at all these companies: Cloudera just IPO'd. Hortonworks is a public company. These companies that have Open Core or Open Source as a major piece of what they're doing, none have had the just measured growth and success that Red Hat does, so you know, Red Hat has a case study. It still seems to be one that stands alone category by themselves, but you know, partnering and growing and doing great, and it's exciting to cover. >> Day two, anything you're particularly excited about? >> Yeah, so I got a taste of the AWS-enhanced partnership talking about how Open Shift is going to have deeper integration and we talked a little bit with Paul Cormier so I suspect Jim Whitehurst will be talking to him about it. We have one of the main guys involved in that from Red Hat side will be on our program tomorrow. So the keynote tomorrow, I'll be watching here. Maybe there'll be a special guest during the keynote talk about that announcement some, but you know, obviously a space we watch real closely. We had Optum, one of the customers on today, he said, "I use Open Shift and I'm using Amazon and want to do it most and this is a game-changer for me," so we think this is really interest to watch, really, you talked about maturity early in this segment here, the maturity of hybrid cloud. If Amazon starts to get deeper into the data centers, partnering with companies like Red Hat and like VMware, that will help them to stave off some of the competition that's coming at them. (mumbles) to Microsoft and Google who's getting Cooper Netties everywhere. Lots more to dig in with. There's some announcements today but a lot more to come and you know, more customers, more partners, more Red Hatters. >> That's great, great. Well, we are looking forward to being back here tomorrow bright and early. Thank you for joining us. I'm Rebecca Knight for Stu Miniman. We'll see you back here tomorrow. (innovative tones)

SUMMARY :

Brought to you by Red hat. Thoughts, impressions of the first day. that the company has had revenue growth. It is early days in the summit, but where would you say that many of the things that we had in previous ways the good data and the bad data and where you find We had one of the customers on today was like, just talking about the evolution of Red Hat that is that sure they have products, but underneath it, of moving the industry forward. I didn't mean to ask the question insinuating the shift of what's happening with cloud, Open Source companies," and his answer was, you know, and hopefully we can get to the bottom of that by day three. but most of the other companies not doing so much.

Day 3 Open | Red Hat Summit 2017


 

>> (upbeat music) Live from Boston Massachusetts. It's theCube! Covering Red Hat Summit 2017. Brought to you by Red Hat. >> It is day three of the Red Hat Summit, here in Boston Massachusetts. I'm Rebecca Knight. Along with Stu Miniman. We are wrapping up this conference Stu. We just had the final keynote of the morning. Before the cameras were rolling, you were teasing me a little bit that you have more scoop on the AWS deal. I'm interested to hear what you learned. >> (Stu) Yeah, Rebecca. First of all, may the fourth be with you. >> (Rebecca) Well, thank you. Of course, yes. And also with you. >> (Stu) Always. >> Yeah. (giggles) >> (Stu) So, day three of the keynote. They started out with a little bit of fun. They gave out some "May The Fourth Be With You" t-shirts. They had a little Star Wars duel that I was Periscoping this morning. So, love their geeking out. I've got my Millennium Falcon cuff links on. >> (Rebecca) You're into it. >> I saw a bunch of guys wearing t-shirts >> (Rebecca) Princess Leia was walking around! >> Princess Leia was walking around. There were storm troopers there. >> (Rebecca) Which is a little sad to see, but yes. >> (Stu) Uh, yeah. Carrie Fisher. >> Yes. >> Absolutely, but the Amazon stuff. Sure, I think this is the biggest news coming out of the show. I've said this a number of times. And we're still kind of teasing out exactly what it is. Cause, partially really this is still being built out. There's not going to be shipping until later this year. So things like how pricing works. We're still going to get there. But there's some people that were like "Oh wait!' "Open shift can be in AWS, that's great!" "But then I can do AWS services on premises." Well, what that doesn't mean, of course is that I don't have everything that Amazon does packaged up into a nice little container. We understand how computer coding works. And even with open-source and how we can make things server-less. And it's not like I can take everything that everybody says and shove it in my data center. It's just not feasible. What that means though, is it is the same applications that I can run. It's running in OpenShift. And really, there's the hooks and the API's to make sure that I can leverage services that are used in AWS. Of course, from my standpoint I'm like "OK!" So, tell me a little bit about how what latency there's going to be between those services. But it will be well understood as we build these what it's going to be use for. Certain use cases. We already talked to Optim. I was really excited about how they could do this for their environment. So, it's something we expect to be talking about throughout the rest of the year. And by the time we get to AWS Reinvent the week after Thanksgiving, I expect we'll have a lot more detail. So, looking forward to that. >> (Rebecca) And it will be rolled out too. So we'll have a really good sense of how it's working in the marketplace. >> (Stu) Absolutely. >> So other thoughts on the key note. I mean, one of the things that really struck me was talking about open-source. The history of open-source. It started because of a need to license existing technologies in a cheaper way. But then, really, the point that was made is that open-source taught tech how to collaborate. And then tech taught the world how to collaborate. Because it really was the model for what we're seeing with crowdsourcing solutions to problems facing education, climate change, the developing world. So I think that that is really something that Red Hat has done really well. In terms of highlighting how open-source is attacking many of the worlds most pressing problems. >> (Stu) Yeah, Rebecca I agree. We talked with Jim Whitehurst and watched him in the keynotes in previous days. And talked about communities and innovation and how that works. And in a lot of tech conferences it's like "Okay, what are the business outcomes?" And here it's, "Well, how are we helping the greater good?" "How are we helping education?" It was great to see kids that are coding and doing some cool things. And they're like, "Oh yeah, I've done Java and all these other things." And the Red Hat guys were like, "Hey >> (Rebecca) We're hiring. Yeah. (giggles) >> can we go hire this seventh grader?" Had the open-source hardware initiative that they were talking about. And how they can do that. Everything from healthcare to get a device that used to be $10,000 to be able to put together the genome. Is I can buy it on Amazon for What was it? Like six seven hundred dollars and put it together myself. So, open-source and hardware are something we've been keeping an eye on. We've been at the Open Compute Project event. Which Facebook launched. But, these other initiatives. They had.... It was funny, she said like, "There's the internet of things." And they have the thing called "The Thing" that you can tie into other pieces. There was another one that weaved this into fabric. And we can sensor and do that. We know healthcare, of course. Lot's of open-source initiatives. So, lots of places where open-source communities and projects are helping proliferate and make greater good and make the world a greater place. Flattening the world in many cases too. So, it was exciting to see. >> And the woman from the Open-Source Association. She made this great point. And she wasn't trying to be flip. But she said one of our questions is: Are you emotionally ready to be part of this community? And I thought that that was so interesting because it is such a different perspective. Particularly from the product side. Where, "This is my IP. This is our idea. This is our lifeblood. And this is how we're going to make money." But this idea of, No. You need to be willing to share. You need to be willing to be copied. And this is about how we build ideas and build the next great things. >> (Stu) Yeah, if you look at the history of the internet, there was always. Right, is this something I have to share information? Or do we build collaboration? You know, back to the old bulletin board days. Through the homebrew computing clubs. Some of the great progress that we've made in technology and then technology enabling beyond have been because we can work in a group. We can work... Build on what everyone else has done. And that's always how science is done. And open-source is just trying to take us to the next level. >> Right. Right. Right. And in terms of one of the last... One of the last things that they featured in the keynote was what's going on at the MIT media lab. Changing the face of agriculture. And how they are coding climate. And how they are coding plant nutrition. And really this is just going to have such a big change in how we consume food and where food is grown. The nutrients we derive from fruit. I was really blown away by the fact that the average apple we eat in the grocery store has been around for 14 months. Ew, ew! (laughs) So, I mean, I'm just exciting what they're doing. >> Yeah, absolutely right. If we can help make sure people get clean water. Make sure people have availability of food. Shorten those cycles. >> (Rebecca) Right, right. Exactly. >> The amount of information, data. The whole Farm to Table Initiative. A lot of times data is involved in that. >> (Rebecca) Yeah. It's not necessarily just the stuff that you know, grown on the roof next door. Or in the farm a block away. I looked at a local food chain that's everywhere is like Chipotle. You know? >> (Rebecca) Right. >> They use data to be able to work with local farmers. Get what they can. Try to help change some of the culture pieces to bring that in. And then they ended up the keynote talking more about innovation award winners. You and I have had the chance to interview a bunch of them. It's a program I really like. And talking to some of the Red Hatters there actually was some focus to work with... Talk to governments. Talk to a lot of internationals. Because when they started the program a few years ago. It started out very U.S.-centric. So, they said "Yeah." It was a little bit coincidence that this year it's all international. Except for RackSpace. But, we should be blind when we think about who has great ideas and good innovation. And at this conference, I bumped into a lot of people internationally. Talked to a few people coming back from the Red Sox game. And it was like, "How was it?" And they were like, "Well, I got a hotdog and I understood this. But that whole ball and thing flying around, I don't get it." And things like that. >> So, they're learning about code but also baseball. So this is >> (Stu) Yeah, what's your take on the global community that you've seen at the show this week? >> (Rebecca) Well, as you've said, there are representatives from 70 countries here. So this really does feel like the United Nations of open-source. I think what is fascinating is that we're here in the states. And so we think about these hotbeds of technological innovation. We're here in Boston. Of course there's Silicon Valley. Then there are North Carolina, where Red Hat's based. Atlanta, Austin, Seattle, of course. So all these places where we see so much innovation and technological progress taking place here in the states. And so, it can be easy to forget that there are also pockets all over Europe. All over South America. In Africa, doing cool things with technology. And I think that that is also ... When we get back to one of the sub themes of this conference... I mean, it's not a sub theme. It is the theme. About how we work today. How we share ideas. How we collaborate. And how we manage and inspire people to do their best work. I think that that is what I'd like to dig into a little today. If we can. And see how it is different in these various countries. >> Yeah, and this show, what I like is when its 13th year of the show, it started out going to a few locations. Now it's very stable. Next year, they'll be back in San Francisco. The year after, they'll be back here in Boston. They've go the new Boston office opening up within walking distance of where we are. Here GE is opening up their big building. I just heard there's lots of startups when I've been walking around the area. Every time I come down to the Sea Port District. It's like, "Wow, look at all the tech." It's like, Log Me In is right down the road. There's this hot little storage company called Wasabi. That's like two blocks away. Really excited but, one last thing back on the international piece. Next week's OpenStack Summit. I'll be here, doing theCube. And some of the feedback I've been getting this week It's like, "Look, the misperception on an OpenStack." One of the reasons why people are like, "Oh, the project's floundering. And it's not doing great, is because the two big use case. One, the telecommunication space. Which is a small segment of the global population. And two, it's gaining a lot of traction in Europe and in Asia. Whereas, in North America public cloud has kind of pushed it aside a little bit. So, unfortunately the global tech press tends to be very much, "Oh wait, if it's seventy-five percent adoption in North America, that's what we expect. If its seventy-five percent overseas, it's not happening. So (giggles) it's kind of interesting. >> (Rebecca) Right. And that myopia is really a problem because these are the trends that are shaping our future. >> (Stu) Yeah, yeah. >> So today, I'm also going to be talking to the Women In Tech winners. That very exciting. One of the women was talking about how she got her idea. Or really, her idea became more formulated, more crystallized, at the Grace Hopper Conference. We, of course, have a great partnership with the Grace Hopper Conference. So, I'm excited to talk to her more about that today too. >> (Stu) Yeah, good lineup. We have few more partners. Another customer EasiER AG who did the keynote yesterday. Looking forward to digging in. Kind of wrapping up all of this. And Rebecca it's been fun doing it with you this week. >> And I'm with you. And may the force... May the fourth be with you. >> And with you. >> (giggles) Thank you, we'll have more today later. From the Red Hat Summit. Here in Boston, I'm Rebecca Knight for Stu Miniman.

>> Announcer: Live from Boston, Massachusetts, it's theCUBE, covering Red Hat Summit 2017, brought to you by Red Hat. >> We are wrapping up day two of theCUBE's coverage here at the Red Hat Summit here in Boston, Massachusetts, I'm Rebecca Knight, I'm here with Stu Miniman. Stu, we started off the morning with Jim Whitehurst, CEO of Red Hat saying planning is dead. We work so hard to infer order where there is none, you're an analyst, you're a forecaster, so I'm sorry to tell you this, but it's not, stop trying. >> Yeah, thanks Rebecca, it's been great, yeah. No, it's funny, I've looked at this from the analyst world, read a book recently called Black Swan, by Nassim Taleb, talks about how really trying to predict some of these big game changers is really challenging. That being said, I've been involved in some technologies early, it's like, I remember playing with the internet when the first graphical browsers came out, and being like, this is going to be a game changer! I had no idea where it was going, but there, I happened to be involved really early in the VMware virtualization days. I started talking to Docker really early. I don't say I'm predicting the future, but, here at Red Hat, communities, we asked Jim Whitehurst about, you build on communities, and I feel I've got a pretty strong network, I'm tied in a lot, through social these days, and feel like I can kind of get the, where's the interesting stuff happening, and where is it just maybe a little bit too, you know, the hype doesn't meet the reality, and one of the other things is how long it takes for certain technologies to kind of mature, what it will look like when it comes through, it's easier to bet on the waves as opposed to some of the particular tools out there, we really loved the conversation with Jim Whitehurst, I always feel like I'm doing one of those executive case studies, that you take at a good business school when you get to sit down and talk with them. >> I agree, he's a great conversationalist, a great guy. During his keynote, and even when he sat down with us, he was talking about the management challenge of technology leaders today, and this is reflective of the theme of this year's conference, which is empowering the individual, and he said that the role of the leader today is to create the context for the individual to try and modify and try again and fail. My question for you is, it implies that the individual was unempowered beforehand, is that accurate? And did engineers not have a voice? >> It's, what is the role of the individual worker, do they know where they're going, do we have a shared clear vision, you talk about most companies, they have their mission statement, and you do studies, and 70% to 80% of most companies, most people in companies are like, "I'm disconnected from the work, "I don't understand how what I do "translates to where I'm going," Red Hat is an interesting, different company, about 10,000 people, we've heard from many of the Red Hatters that it doesn't feel and act like that company, go back to, this is the kind of military-style hierarchy that most businesses have, the structure there, Red Hat is a lot flatter, we talk in kind of the devops world about like two pizza groups, well, the Red Hats committee involved in all of these various projects, hundreds of them that they're involved, it's not one or two opensource things, it's all over the place, and you kind of put your business out on like, well, okay, how do you understand how to, you know, which do you drive and which ones create money, and how are you working in the right place, or are people just contributing to stuff that, you hope if I put good stuff out there in good code, eventually, it will translate to our business, but Red Hat keeps delivering, keeps growing their base, they've made certain acquisitions, and they keep moving forward. >> So I want to talk about those acquisitions, because we had some Ansible people on the show here today, it seems as though the acquisition has really gone well, and the two companies are blending, and it's setting itself up for success. Is that your take too? What do you see as potential obstacles down the road? >> Yeah, that's great, Rebecca, we talk to talk with three different angles of the Ansible team today, and 18 months after the acquisition, it's really broadly integrated. I can tell you, I've worked in big companies, I've worked through a number of acquisitions, 18 months from acquisition to oh my gosh, their secret sauce is all over the place, I'm like, that is quite impressive. It's just, they're a software company, they are agile in their development, and they get to move things forward. And I'd heard great things about Ansible before the acquisition, I hear good things from customers that are using it, some of the other companies in the space that are standalone have been facing some challenges, the third interview that we did, I talked a little bit about how cloud providers were starting to build some of those pieces in. Infrastructure companies have known for a long time that management is one of those big challenges, so, management still seems to be one of those jump balls, it feels like that beach ball bouncing around and everybody's trying to get ahold of it, but Red Hat's figuring how to bake Ansible in, make sure it's touching open shifts specifically, all those things like the cloud forms and insights, and all the other pieces, so, building in more automation fits a lot with what they're doing, and how the Linux administrators understand how to do things, they always wanted to get past, oh, great, I have to go create yet another script and another script and another script, that they'll do that, so, seems to be a great acquisition for them, and helping to move them forward in a lot of spaces. >> Another buzzword we heard a lot today, and it's going to be funny that I described this as a buzzword, but it's simple, simplified, this is what we kept hearing again from partners, saying that this is what they're hearing from customers, because they just have so many different application, they've got old infrastructure, new infrastructure, the cloud, they've got hybrid, and they just want things to work together and play nicely. They're coming out with solutions, are they solutions? Are they in fact simpler? What's your take? Are you skeptical that things are in fact getting simpler? >> Yeah, Rebecca, there's a line I used, the simple enterprise is an oxymoron, it does not exist. If you look at any enterprise today, how many applications they'd have, it's like, well, do you have hundreds of applications, or thousands of applications, depending on how old you are, what the size of your company is. Everything in IT is additive, we had somebody on this week who was talking about the AS/400 sitting in the back, we had HP on, I'm sure they've got lots of customers, still running Superdomes, we've covered the mainframe pieces, and oh, well, Red Hat Enterprise, Linux, lives on lots of these environments, so we're going to standardize the software pieces, but there's only pieces of the puzzle that I can simplify, and really building software that can live in many environments, and help me move towards more composable or distributed architectures is the way we need to go, I liked Red Hat stories, where they're taking us, but I think if you talk to most IT staffs, even if they're like, "Oh, yeah, we're doing a lot of public cloud," or, "We've standardized on a couple of piece and things," most people don't think that IT is simple. >> And then there's the cost, too, I think that one of our guests made this point about proprietary software, and how it really is, it has a higher bar, because customers are going to say, "Why can't I just get this on opensource? "Why do I have to pay for this?" And so that's another question too, where are you seeing the financials of this all play out? >> Yeah, it's interesting, we're talking a lot about hybrid cloud, and when we first started talking public cloud, it was like, oh wait, it'll be cheaper. And then it's like, wait, no, it'll help me be more agile, and maybe that will then lead to cost, it was like, the old faster cheaper better, there're certain people in the development culture, that's like, "Well, if I can just do faster, "faster, faster, it will make up for everything else," then again, if I move too fast, sometimes we're breaking things, we're not being able to take advantage of things, so, it goes back, is this that simple? It sure doesn't sound simple, so it's, IT is a complex world, pricing is one of those things that absolutely is getting sorted out, Red Hat has a nice position in the marketplace, when I look at the big companies in the market, you need to take software companies like Microsoft or an Oracle, one of the first things most people think about when you hear those companies is like, oh, their price. Red Hat has brought adoption, and a lot of customers, and do I hear issues here or there on certain product lines, where yes, they'd like it cheaper, or there? Yes, but it's not a general complaint, oh, well, hey, you want to do, let's just use the Fedora version, or the CentOS version rather than the full enterprise version, and they have some sliders to be able to manage with that, starting to hear more, kind of the elastic cloud-like pricing, from Red Hat and some of their partners that solution that these pieces with, so, yeah, pricing isn't simple yet, it's definitely something that we're going to see more and more as we kind of get to that cloud-like model. >> Today, as particularly in the morning keynote, some of the use cases were from the government, we had three, including British Columbia, which we just had on our show, also Singapore, so it sounds as though government is saying, "Wait, what is this opensource? "This can really help us, this can help us engage "our citizens and help make their lives easier, "and also, by the way, make it easier for us to govern," will government sort of always lag behind, or do you think that there is a possibility that government could really lead the way on a lot of these things? >> Well, it's funny, 'cause we've known for a long time that government typically doesn't get a lot of budget, so when they go to do something, first of all, they sometimes can leapfrog a generation or two, because they've waited, they've waited, they've waited, and I can't necessarily upgrade it, so I might need to skip a generation, secondly, government has, if we talk about things like IoT, and all of those data points out there, the data has gravity, data's the new oil, government has a lot of data, you just interviewed British Columbia, I'm sure there's the opportunity there that as data can be leveraged and turned into more value, working with entrepreneurs, working with communities, government now sits in a place where, if they can be a little bit more open, and they can take advantage of the new opportunity, they can actually be on the vanguard of some of these new technologies, anything you got from your interviews? >> Yes, no, absolutely, I think that one of the things that really struck me was the recruiting and retention piece, because that seems to be one of the hardest things. If you're a hot coder, or an engineer who's graduating from one of the best schools, it's going to take a lot to get you to go work for the government, it just will. >> Rebecca, when I was in college, I did an internship for a municipal government, I digitized all their land management, did a whole database creation, and did one of those things, the old process took two months, and when I was done with it, it could be anywhere from two minutes to maybe a little bit longer, but boy, that was a painful summer to work through some of the processes, their infrastructure was all antiquated, great people, but government moved at a slower speed than I'm used to. >> And that is what I got out of my interview, so they are using the same kind of tools that these coders and developers would be using in the private sector, they're also doing smaller engagements, so you're not signing your life away to the government, you're able to work on a stint here, a stint there, you can do it in your free time and then get paid on PayPal, so I think that that is one way to attract good talent. Stu, we got one more day of this, what do you hope to see tomorrow, what are you going to be looking for, what do you want to be talking about tomorrow at this time? >> Well, what we always get here is a lot of really good customers, I love the innovation stories, right past the hallway here, there's all of these pictures, and Red Hat's a great partner for us on theCUBE, they've brought us many of those customers, we're going to have more of them on, another two keynotes, full day of coverage, so we'll see how many people make it to the morning keynote after going to Fenway tonight, 4,000 people, pretty impressive, I think we'll see, it's not like we'll see more red in the audience than usual, at a game at Fenway, but yeah, you're rooting for the home team, I'm a transplant here, go Pats, you know? >> Mm, okay, alright, so it's the argument, I think, that they were hoping for. So I want to thank you so much, it's been great doing this with you, and I hope you will join us tomorrow for day three of the Red Hat Summit in Boston, Massachusetts, I'm Rebecca Knight for Stu Miniman, thank you, and see you tomorrow!

Breaking Analysis: Grading our 2022 Enterprise Technology Predictions


 

>>From the Cube Studios in Palo Alto in Boston, bringing you data-driven insights from the cube and E T R. This is breaking analysis with Dave Valante. >>Making technology predictions in 2022 was tricky business, especially if you were projecting the performance of markets or identifying I P O prospects and making binary forecast on data AI and the macro spending climate and other related topics in enterprise tech 2022, of course was characterized by a seesaw economy where central banks were restructuring their balance sheets. The war on Ukraine fueled inflation supply chains were a mess. And the unintended consequences of of forced march to digital and the acceleration still being sorted out. Hello and welcome to this week's weekly on Cube Insights powered by E T R. In this breaking analysis, we continue our annual tradition of transparently grading last year's enterprise tech predictions. And you may or may not agree with our self grading system, but look, we're gonna give you the data and you can draw your own conclusions and tell you what, tell us what you think. >>All right, let's get right to it. So our first prediction was tech spending increases by 8% in 2022. And as we exited 2021 CIOs, they were optimistic about their digital transformation plans. You know, they rushed to make changes to their business and were eager to sharpen their focus and continue to iterate on their digital business models and plug the holes that they, the, in the learnings that they had. And so we predicted that 8% rise in enterprise tech spending, which looked pretty good until Ukraine and the Fed decided that, you know, had to rush and make up for lost time. We kind of nailed the momentum in the energy sector, but we can't give ourselves too much credit for that layup. And as of October, Gartner had it spending growing at just over 5%. I think it was 5.1%. So we're gonna take a C plus on this one and, and move on. >>Our next prediction was basically kind of a slow ground ball. The second base, if I have to be honest, but we felt it was important to highlight that security would remain front and center as the number one priority for organizations in 2022. As is our tradition, you know, we try to up the degree of difficulty by specifically identifying companies that are gonna benefit from these trends. So we highlighted some possible I P O candidates, which of course didn't pan out. S NQ was on our radar. The company had just had to do another raise and they recently took a valuation hit and it was a down round. They raised 196 million. So good chunk of cash, but, but not the i p O that we had predicted Aqua Securities focus on containers and cloud native. That was a trendy call and we thought maybe an M SS P or multiple managed security service providers like Arctic Wolf would I p o, but no way that was happening in the crummy market. >>Nonetheless, we think these types of companies, they're still faring well as the talent shortage in security remains really acute, particularly in the sort of mid-size and small businesses that often don't have a sock Lacework laid off 20% of its workforce in 2022. And CO C e o Dave Hatfield left the company. So that I p o didn't, didn't happen. It was probably too early for Lacework. Anyway, meanwhile you got Netscope, which we've cited as strong in the E T R data as particularly in the emerging technology survey. And then, you know, I lumia holding its own, you know, we never liked that 7 billion price tag that Okta paid for auth zero, but we loved the TAM expansion strategy to target developers beyond sort of Okta's enterprise strength. But we gotta take some points off of the failure thus far of, of Okta to really nail the integration and the go to market model with azero and build, you know, bring that into the, the, the core Okta. >>So the focus on endpoint security that was a winner in 2022 is CrowdStrike led that charge with others holding their own, not the least of which was Palo Alto Networks as it continued to expand beyond its core network security and firewall business, you know, through acquisition. So overall we're gonna give ourselves an A minus for this relatively easy call, but again, we had some specifics associated with it to make it a little tougher. And of course we're watching ve very closely this this coming year in 2023. The vendor consolidation trend. You know, according to a recent Palo Alto network survey with 1300 SecOps pros on average organizations have more than 30 tools to manage security tools. So this is a logical way to optimize cost consolidating vendors and consolidating redundant vendors. The E T R data shows that's clearly a trend that's on the upswing. >>Now moving on, a big theme of 2020 and 2021 of course was remote work and hybrid work and new ways to work and return to work. So we predicted in 2022 that hybrid work models would become the dominant protocol, which clearly is the case. We predicted that about 33% of the workforce would come back to the office in 2022 in September. The E T R data showed that figure was at 29%, but organizations expected that 32% would be in the office, you know, pretty much full-time by year end. That hasn't quite happened, but we were pretty close with the projection, so we're gonna take an A minus on this one. Now, supply chain disruption was another big theme that we felt would carry through 2022. And sure that sounds like another easy one, but as is our tradition, again we try to put some binary metrics around our predictions to put some meat in the bone, so to speak, and and allow us than you to say, okay, did it come true or not? >>So we had some data that we presented last year and supply chain issues impacting hardware spend. We said at the time, you can see this on the left hand side of this chart, the PC laptop demand would remain above pre covid levels, which would reverse a decade of year on year declines, which I think started in around 2011, 2012. Now, while demand is down this year pretty substantially relative to 2021, I D C has worldwide unit shipments for PCs at just over 300 million for 22. If you go back to 2019 and you're looking at around let's say 260 million units shipped globally, you know, roughly, so, you know, pretty good call there. Definitely much higher than pre covid levels. But so what you might be asking why the B, well, we projected that 30% of customers would replace security appliances with cloud-based services and that more than a third would replace their internal data center server and storage hardware with cloud services like 30 and 40% respectively. >>And we don't have explicit survey data on exactly these metrics, but anecdotally we see this happening in earnest. And we do have some data that we're showing here on cloud adoption from ET R'S October survey where the midpoint of workloads running in the cloud is around 34% and forecast, as you can see, to grow steadily over the next three years. So this, well look, this is not, we understand it's not a one-to-one correlation with our prediction, but it's a pretty good bet that we were right, but we gotta take some points off, we think for the lack of unequivocal proof. Cause again, we always strive to make our predictions in ways that can be measured as accurate or not. Is it binary? Did it happen, did it not? Kind of like an O K R and you know, we strive to provide data as proof and in this case it's a bit fuzzy. >>We have to admit that although we're pretty comfortable that the prediction was accurate. And look, when you make an hard forecast, sometimes you gotta pay the price. All right, next, we said in 2022 that the big four cloud players would generate 167 billion in IS and PaaS revenue combining for 38% market growth. And our current forecasts are shown here with a comparison to our January, 2022 figures. So coming into this year now where we are today, so currently we expect 162 billion in total revenue and a 33% growth rate. Still very healthy, but not on our mark. So we think a w s is gonna miss our predictions by about a billion dollars, not, you know, not bad for an 80 billion company. So they're not gonna hit that expectation though of getting really close to a hundred billion run rate. We thought they'd exit the year, you know, closer to, you know, 25 billion a quarter and we don't think they're gonna get there. >>Look, we pretty much nailed Azure even though our prediction W was was correct about g Google Cloud platform surpassing Alibaba, Alibaba, we way overestimated the performance of both of those companies. So we're gonna give ourselves a C plus here and we think, yeah, you might think it's a little bit harsh, we could argue for a B minus to the professor, but the misses on GCP and Alibaba we think warrant a a self penalty on this one. All right, let's move on to our prediction about Supercloud. We said it becomes a thing in 2022 and we think by many accounts it has, despite the naysayers, we're seeing clear evidence that the concept of a layer of value add that sits above and across clouds is taking shape. And on this slide we showed just some of the pickup in the industry. I mean one of the most interesting is CloudFlare, the biggest supercloud antagonist. >>Charles Fitzgerald even predicted that no vendor would ever use the term in their marketing. And that would be proof if that happened that Supercloud was a thing and he said it would never happen. Well CloudFlare has, and they launched their version of Supercloud at their developer week. Chris Miller of the register put out a Supercloud block diagram, something else that Charles Fitzgerald was, it was was pushing us for, which is rightly so, it was a good call on his part. And Chris Miller actually came up with one that's pretty good at David Linthicum also has produced a a a A block diagram, kind of similar, David uses the term metacloud and he uses the term supercloud kind of interchangeably to describe that trend. And so we we're aligned on that front. Brian Gracely has covered the concept on the popular cloud podcast. Berkeley launched the Sky computing initiative. >>You read through that white paper and many of the concepts highlighted in the Supercloud 3.0 community developed definition align with that. Walmart launched a platform with many of the supercloud salient attributes. So did Goldman Sachs, so did Capital One, so did nasdaq. So you know, sorry you can hate the term, but very clearly the evidence is gathering for the super cloud storm. We're gonna take an a plus on this one. Sorry, haters. Alright, let's talk about data mesh in our 21 predictions posts. We said that in the 2020s, 75% of large organizations are gonna re-architect their big data platforms. So kind of a decade long prediction. We don't like to do that always, but sometimes it's warranted. And because it was a longer term prediction, we, at the time in, in coming into 22 when we were evaluating our 21 predictions, we took a grade of incomplete because the sort of decade long or majority of the decade better part of the decade prediction. >>So last year, earlier this year, we said our number seven prediction was data mesh gains momentum in 22. But it's largely confined and narrow data problems with limited scope as you can see here with some of the key bullets. So there's a lot of discussion in the data community about data mesh and while there are an increasing number of examples, JP Morgan Chase, Intuit, H S P C, HelloFresh, and others that are completely rearchitecting parts of their data platform completely rearchitecting entire data platforms is non-trivial. There are organizational challenges, there're data, data ownership, debates, technical considerations, and in particular two of the four fundamental data mesh principles that the, the need for a self-service infrastructure and federated computational governance are challenging. Look, democratizing data and facilitating data sharing creates conflicts with regulatory requirements around data privacy. As such many organizations are being really selective with their data mesh implementations and hence our prediction of narrowing the scope of data mesh initiatives. >>I think that was right on J P M C is a good example of this, where you got a single group within a, within a division narrowly implementing the data mesh architecture. They're using a w s, they're using data lakes, they're using Amazon Glue, creating a catalog and a variety of other techniques to meet their objectives. They kind of automating data quality and it was pretty well thought out and interesting approach and I think it's gonna be made easier by some of the announcements that Amazon made at the recent, you know, reinvent, particularly trying to eliminate ET t l, better connections between Aurora and Redshift and, and, and better data sharing the data clean room. So a lot of that is gonna help. Of course, snowflake has been on this for a while now. Many other companies are facing, you know, limitations as we said here and this slide with their Hadoop data platforms. They need to do new, some new thinking around that to scale. HelloFresh is a really good example of this. Look, the bottom line is that organizations want to get more value from data and having a centralized, highly specialized teams that own the data problem, it's been a barrier and a blocker to success. The data mesh starts with organizational considerations as described in great detail by Ash Nair of Warner Brothers. So take a listen to this clip. >>Yeah, so when people think of Warner Brothers, you always think of like the movie studio, but we're more than that, right? I mean, you think of H B O, you think of t n t, you think of C N N. We have 30 plus brands in our portfolio and each have their own needs. So the, the idea of a data mesh really helps us because what we can do is we can federate access across the company so that, you know, CNN can work at their own pace. You know, when there's election season, they can ingest their own data and they don't have to, you know, bump up against, as an example, HBO if Game of Thrones is going on. >>So it's often the case that data mesh is in the eyes of the implementer. And while a company's implementation may not strictly adhere to Jamma Dani's vision of data mesh, and that's okay, the goal is to use data more effectively. And despite Gartner's attempts to deposition data mesh in favor of the somewhat confusing or frankly far more confusing data fabric concept that they stole from NetApp data mesh is taking hold in organizations globally today. So we're gonna take a B on this one. The prediction is shaping up the way we envision, but as we previously reported, it's gonna take some time. The better part of a decade in our view, new standards have to emerge to make this vision become reality and they'll come in the form of both open and de facto approaches. Okay, our eighth prediction last year focused on the face off between Snowflake and Databricks. >>And we realized this popular topic, and maybe one that's getting a little overplayed, but these are two companies that initially, you know, looked like they were shaping up as partners and they, by the way, they are still partnering in the field. But you go back a couple years ago, the idea of using an AW w s infrastructure, Databricks machine intelligence and applying that on top of Snowflake as a facile data warehouse, still very viable. But both of these companies, they have much larger ambitions. They got big total available markets to chase and large valuations that they have to justify. So what's happening is, as we've previously reported, each of these companies is moving toward the other firm's core domain and they're building out an ecosystem that'll be critical for their future. So as part of that effort, we said each is gonna become aggressive investors and maybe start doing some m and a and they have in various companies. >>And on this chart that we produced last year, we studied some of the companies that were targets and we've added some recent investments of both Snowflake and Databricks. As you can see, they've both, for example, invested in elation snowflake's, put money into Lacework, the Secur security firm, ThoughtSpot, which is trying to democratize data with ai. Collibra is a governance platform and you can see Databricks investments in data transformation with D B T labs, Matillion doing simplified business intelligence hunters. So that's, you know, they're security investment and so forth. So other than our thought that we'd see Databricks I p o last year, this prediction been pretty spot on. So we'll give ourselves an A on that one. Now observability has been a hot topic and we've been covering it for a while with our friends at E T R, particularly Eric Bradley. Our number nine prediction last year was basically that if you're not cloud native and observability, you are gonna be in big trouble. >>So everything guys gotta go cloud native. And that's clearly been the case. Splunk, the big player in the space has been transitioning to the cloud, hasn't always been pretty, as we reported, Datadog real momentum, the elk stack, that's open source model. You got new entrants that we've cited before, like observe, honeycomb, chaos search and others that we've, we've reported on, they're all born in the cloud. So we're gonna take another a on this one, admittedly, yeah, it's a re reasonably easy call, but you gotta have a few of those in the mix. Okay, our last prediction, our number 10 was around events. Something the cube knows a little bit about. We said that a new category of events would emerge as hybrid and that for the most part is happened. So that's gonna be the mainstay is what we said. That pure play virtual events are gonna give way to hi hybrid. >>And the narrative is that virtual only events are, you know, they're good for quick hits, but lousy replacements for in-person events. And you know that said, organizations of all shapes and sizes, they learn how to create better virtual content and support remote audiences during the pandemic. So when we set at pure play is gonna give way to hybrid, we said we, we i we implied or specific or specified that the physical event that v i p experience is going defined. That overall experience and those v i p events would create a little fomo, fear of, of missing out in a virtual component would overlay that serves an audience 10 x the size of the physical. We saw that really two really good examples. Red Hat Summit in Boston, small event, couple thousand people served tens of thousands, you know, online. Second was Google Cloud next v i p event in, in New York City. >>Everything else was, was, was, was virtual. You know, even examples of our prediction of metaverse like immersion have popped up and, and and, and you know, other companies are doing roadshow as we predicted like a lot of companies are doing it. You're seeing that as a major trend where organizations are going with their sales teams out into the regions and doing a little belly to belly action as opposed to the big giant event. That's a definitely a, a trend that we're seeing. So in reviewing this prediction, the grade we gave ourselves is, you know, maybe a bit unfair, it should be, you could argue for a higher grade, but the, but the organization still haven't figured it out. They have hybrid experiences but they generally do a really poor job of leveraging the afterglow and of event of an event. It still tends to be one and done, let's move on to the next event or the next city. >>Let the sales team pick up the pieces if they were paying attention. So because of that, we're only taking a B plus on this one. Okay, so that's the review of last year's predictions. You know, overall if you average out our grade on the 10 predictions that come out to a b plus, I dunno why we can't seem to get that elusive a, but we're gonna keep trying our friends at E T R and we are starting to look at the data for 2023 from the surveys and all the work that we've done on the cube and our, our analysis and we're gonna put together our predictions. We've had literally hundreds of inbounds from PR pros pitching us. We've got this huge thick folder that we've started to review with our yellow highlighter. And our plan is to review it this month, take a look at all the data, get some ideas from the inbounds and then the e t R of January surveys in the field. >>It's probably got a little over a thousand responses right now. You know, they'll get up to, you know, 1400 or so. And once we've digested all that, we're gonna go back and publish our predictions for 2023 sometime in January. So stay tuned for that. All right, we're gonna leave it there for today. You wanna thank Alex Myerson who's on production and he manages the podcast, Ken Schiffman as well out of our, our Boston studio.

So it's often the case that data mesh is in the eyes of the implementer. but these are two companies that initially, you know, looked like they were shaping up as partners and they, So that's, you know, they're security investment and so forth.

Andy Goldstein & Tushar Katarki, Red Hat | KubeCon + CloudNativeCon NA 2022


 

>>Hello everyone and welcome back to Motor City, Michigan. We're live from the Cube and my name is Savannah Peterson. Joined this afternoon with my co-host John Ferer. John, how you doing? Doing >>Great. This next segment's gonna be awesome about application modernization, scaling pluses. This is what's gonna, how are the next generation software revolution? It's gonna be >>Fun. You know, it's kind of been a theme of our day today is scale. And when we think about the complex orchestration platform that is Kubernetes, everyone wants to scale faster, quicker, more efficiently, and our guests are here to tell us all about that. Please welcome to Char and Andy, thank you so much for being here with us. You were on the Red Hat OpenShift team. Yeah. I suspect most of our audience is familiar, but just in case, let's give 'em a quick one-liner pitch so everyone's on the same page. Tell us about OpenShift. >>I, I'll take that one. OpenShift is our ES platform is our ES distribution. You can consume it as a self-managed platform or you can consume it as a managed service on on public clouds. And so we just call it all OpenShift. So it's basically Kubernetes, but you know, with a CNCF ecosystem around it to make things more easier. So maybe there's two >>Lights. So what does being at coupon mean for you? How does it feel to be here? What's your initial takes? >>Exciting. I'm having a fantastic time. I haven't been to coupon since San Diego, so it's great to be back in person and see old friends, make new friends, have hallway conversations. It's, it's great as an engineer trying to work in this ecosystem, just being able to, to be in the same place with these folks. >>And you gotta ask, before we came on camera, you're like, this is like my sixth co con. We were like, we're seven, you know, But that's a lot of co coupons. It >>Is, yes. I mean, so what, >>Yes. >>Take us status >>For sure. Where we are now. Compare and contrast co. Your first co con, just scope it out. What's the magnitude of change? If you had to put a pin on that, because there's a lot of new people coming in, they might not have seen where it's come from and how we got here is maybe not how we're gonna get to the next >>Level. I've seen it grow tremendously since the first one I went to, which I think was Austin several years ago. And what's great is seeing lots of new people interested in contributing and also seeing end users who are trying to figure out the best way to take advantage of this great ecosystem that we have. >>Awesome. And the project management side, you get the keys to the Kingdom with Red Hat OpenShift, which has been successful. Congratulations by the way. Thank you. We watched that grow and really position right on the wave. It's going great. What's the update on on the product? Kind of, you're in a good, good position right now. Yeah, >>No, we we're feeling good about it. It's all about our customers. Obviously the fact that, you know, we have thousands of customers using OpenShift as the cloud native platform, the container platform. We're very excited. The great thing about them is that, I mean you can go to like OpenShift Commons is kind of a user group that we run on the first day, like on Tuesday we ran. I mean you should see the number of just case studies that our customers went through there, you know? And it is fantastic to see that. I mean it's across so many different industries, across so many different use cases, which is very exciting. >>One of the things we've been reporting here in the Qla scene before, but here more important is just that if you take digital transformation to the, to its conclusion, the IT department and developers, they're not a department to serve the business. They are the business. Yes. That means that the developers are deciding things. Yeah. And running the business. Prove their code. Yeah. Okay. If that's, if that takes place, you gonna have scale. And we also said on many cubes, certainly at Red Hat Summit and other ones, the clouds are distributed computer, it's distributed computing. So you guys are focusing on this project, Andy, that you're working on kcp. >>Yes. >>Which is, I won't platform Kubernetes platform for >>Control >>Planes. Control planes. Yes. Take us through, what's the focus on why is that important and why is that relate to the mission of developers being in charge and large scale? >>Sure. So a lot of times when people are interested in developing on Kubernetes and running workloads, they need a cluster of course. And those are not cheap. It takes time, it takes money, it takes resources to get them. And so we're trying to make that faster and easier for, for end users and everybody involved. So with kcp, we've been able to take what looks like one normal Kubernetes and partition it. And so everybody gets a slice of it. You're an administrator in your little slice and you don't have to ask for permission to install new APIs and they don't conflict with anybody else's APIs. So we're really just trying to make it super fast and make it super flexible. So everybody is their own admin. >>So the developer basically looks at it as a resource blob. They can do whatever they want, but it's shared and provisioned. >>Yes. One option. It's like, it's like they have their own cluster, but you don't have to go through the process of actually provisioning a full >>Cluster. And what's the alternative? What's the what's, what's the, what's the benefit and what was the alternative to >>This? So the alternative, you spin up a full cluster, which you know, maybe that's three control plane nodes, you've got multiple workers, you've got a bunch of virtual machines or bare metal, or maybe you take, >>How much time does that take? Just ballpark. >>Anywhere from five minutes to an hour you can use cloud services. Yeah. Gke, E Ks and so on. >>Keep banging away. You're configuring. Yeah. >>Those are faster. Yeah. But it's still like, you still have to wait for that to happen and it costs money to do all of that too. >>Absolutely. And it's complex. Why do something that's been done, if there's a tool that can get you a couple steps down the path, which makes a ton of sense. Something that we think a lot when we're talking about scale. You mentioned earlier, Tohar, when we were chatting before the cams were alive, scale means a lot of different things. Can you dig in there a little bit? >>Yeah, I >>Mean, so when, when >>We talk about scale, >>We are talking about from a user perspective, we are talking about, you know, there are more users, there are more applications, there are more workloads, there are more services being run on Kubernetes now, right? So, and OpenShift. So, so that's one dimension of this scale. The other dimension of the scale is how do you manage all the underlying infrastructure, the clusters, the name spaces, and all the observability data, et cetera. So that's at least two levels of scale. And then obviously there's a third level of scale, which is, you know, there is scale across not just different clouds, but also from cloud to the edge. So there is that dimension of scale. So there are several dimensions of this scale. And the one that again, we are focused on here really is about, you know, this, the first one that I talk about is a user. And when I say user, it could be a developer, it could be an application architect, or it could be an application owner who wants to develop Kubernetes applications for Kubernetes and wants to publish those APIs, if you will, and make it discoverable and then somebody consumes it. So that's the scale we are talking about >>Here. What are some of the enterprise, you guys have a lot of customers, we've talked to you guys before many, many times and other subjects, Red Hat, I mean you guys have all the customers. Yeah. Enterprise, they've been there, done that. And you know, they're, they're savvy. Yeah. But the cloud is a whole nother ballgame. What are they thinking about? What's the psychology of the customer right now? Because now they have a lot of choices. Okay, we get it, we're gonna re-platform refactor apps, we'll keep some legacy on premises for whatever reasons. But cloud pretty much is gonna be the game. What's the mindset right now of the customer base? Where are they in their, in their psych? Not the executive, but more of the the operators or the developers? >>Yeah, so I mean, first of all, different customers are at different levels of maturity, I would say in this. They're all on a journey how I like to describe it. And in this journey, I mean, I see a customers who are really tip of the sphere. You know, they have containerized everything. They're cloud native, you know, they use best of tools, I mean automation, you know, complete automation, you know, quick deployment of applications and all, and life cycle of applications, et cetera. So that, that's kind of one end of this spectrum >>Advanced. Then >>The advances, you know, and, and I, you know, I don't, I don't have any specific numbers here, but I'd say there are quite a few of them. And we see that. And then there is kind of the middle who are, I would say, who are familiar with containers. They know what app modernization, what a cloud application means. They might have tried a few. So they are in the journey. They are kind of, they want to get there. They have some other kind of other issues, organizational or talent and so, so on and so forth. Kinds of issues to get there. And then there are definitely the quota, what I would call the lag arts still. And there's lots of them. But I think, you know, Covid has certainly accelerated a lot of that. I hear that. And there is definitely, you know, more, the psychology is definitely more towards what I would say public cloud. But I think where we are early also in the other trend that I see is kind of okay, public cloud great, right? So people are going there, but then there is the so-called edge also. Yeah. That is for various regions. You, you gotta have a kind of a regional presence, a edge presence. And that's kind of the next kind of thing taking off here. And we can talk more >>About it. Yeah, let's talk about that a little bit because I, as you know, as we know, we're very excited about Edge here at the Cube. Yeah. What types of trends are you seeing? Is that space emerges a little bit more firmly? >>Yeah, so I mean it's, I mean, so we, when we talk about Edge, you're talking about, you could talk about Edge as a, as a retail, I mean locations, right? >>Could be so many things edges everywhere. Everywhere, right? It's all around us. Quite literally. Even on the >>Scale. Exactly. In space too. You could, I mean, in fact you mentioned space. I was, I was going to >>Kinda, it's this world, >>My space actually Kubernetes and OpenShift running in space, believe it or not, you know, So, so that's the edge, right? So we have Industrial Edge, we have Telco Edge, we have a 5g, then we have, you know, automotive edge now and, and, and retail edge and, and more, right? So, and space, you know, So it's very exciting there. So the reason I tag back to that question that you asked earlier is that that's where customers are. So cloud is one thing, but now they gotta also think about how do I, whatever I do in the cloud, how do I bring it to the edge? Because that's where my end users are, my customers are, and my data is, right? So that's the, >>And I think Kubernetes has brought that attention to the laggards. We had the Laed Martin on yesterday, which is an incredible real example of Kubernetes at the edge. It's just incredible story. We covered it also wrote a story about it. So compelling. Cuz it makes it real. Yes. And Kubernetes is real. So then the question is developer productivity, okay, Things are starting to settle in. We've got KCP scaling clusters, things are happening. What about the tool chains? And how do I develop now I got scale of development, more code coming in. I mean, we are speculating that in the future there's so much code in open source that no one has to write code anymore. Yeah. At some point it's like this gluing things together. So the developers need to be productive. How are we gonna scale the developer equation and eliminate the, the complexity of tool chains and environments. Web assembly is super hyped up at this show. I don't know why, but sounds good. No one, no one can tell me why, but I can kind of connect the dots. But this is a big thing. >>Yeah. And it's fitting that you ask about like no code. So we've been working with our friends at Cross Plain and have integrated with kcp the ability to no code, take a whole bunch of configuration and say, I want a database. I want to be a, a provider of databases. I'm in an IT department, there's a bunch of developers, they don't wanna have to write code to create databases. So I can just take, take my configuration and make it available to them. And through some super cool new easy to use tools that we have as a developer, you can just say, please give me a database and you don't have to write any code. I don't have to write any code to maintain that database. I'm actually using community tooling out there to get that spun up. So there's a lot of opportunities out there. So >>That's ease of use check. What about a large enterprise that's got multiple tool chains and you start having security issues. Does that disrupt the tool chain capability? Like there's all those now weird examples emerging, not weird, but like real plumbing challenges. How do you guys see that evolving with Red >>Hat and Yeah, I mean, I mean, talking about that, right? The software, secure software supply chain is a huge concern for everyone after, especially some of the things that have happened in the past few >>Years. Massive team here at the show. Yeah. And just within the community, we're all a little more aware, I think, even than we were before. >>Before. Yeah. Yeah. And, and I think the, so to step back, I mean from, so, so it's not just even about, you know, run time vulnerability scanning, Oh, that's important, but that's not enough, right? So we are talking about, okay, how did that container, or how did that workload get there? What is that workload? What's the prominence of this workload? How did it get created? What is in it? You know, and what, what are, how do I make, make sure that there are no unsafe attack s there. And so that's the software supply chain. And where Red Hat is very heavily invested. And as you know, with re we kind of have roots in secure operating system. And rel one of the reasons why Rel, which is the foundation of everything we do at Red Hat, is because of security. So an OpenShift has always been secure out of the box with things like scc, rollbacks access control, we, which we added very early in the product. >>And now if you kind of bring that forward, you know, now we are talking about the complete software supply chain security. And this is really about right how from the moment the, the, the developer rights code and checks it into a gateway repository from there on, how do you build it? How do you secure it at each step of the process, how do you sign it? And we are investing and contributing to the community with things like cosign and six store, which is six store project. And so that secures the supply chain. And then you can use things like algo cd and then finally we can do it, deploy it onto the cluster itself. And then we have things like acs, which can do vulnerability scanning, which is a container security platform. >>I wanna thank you guys for coming on. I know Savannah's probably got a last question, but my last question is, could you guys each take a minute to answer why has Kubernetes been so successful today? What, what was the magic of Kubernetes that made it successful? Was it because no one forced it? Yes. Was it lightweight? Was it good timing, right place at the right time community? What's the main reason that Kubernetes is enabling all this, all this shift and goodness that's coming together, kind of defacto unifies people, the stacks, almost middleware markets coming around. Again, not to use that term middleware, but it feels like it's just about to explode. Yeah. Why is this so successful? I, >>I think, I mean, the shortest answer that I can give there really is, you know, as you heard the term, I think Satya Nala from Microsoft has used it. I don't know if he was the original person who pointed, but every company wants to be a software company or is a software company now. And that means that they want to develop stuff fast. They want to develop stuff at scale and develop at, in a cloud native way, right? You know, with the cloud. So that's, and, and Kubernetes came at the right time to address the cloud problem, especially across not just one public cloud or two public clouds, but across a whole bunch of public clouds and infrastructure as, and what we call the hybrid clouds. I think the ES is really exploded because of hybrid cloud, the need for hybrid cloud. >>And what's your take on the, the magic Kubernetes? What made it, what's making it so successful? >>I would agree also that it came about at the right time, but I would add that it has great extensibility and as developers we take it advantage of that every single day. And I think that the, the patterns that we use for developing are very consistent. And I think that consistency that came with Kubernetes, just, you have so many people who are familiar with it and so they can follow the same patterns, implement things similarly, and it's just a good fit for the way that we want to get our software out there and have, and have things operate. >>Keep it simple, stupid almost is that acronym, but the consistency and the de facto alignment Yes. Behind it just created a community. So, so then the question is, are the developers now setting the standards? That seems like that's the new way, right? I mean, >>I'd like to think so. >>So I mean hybrid, you, you're touching everything at scale and you also have mini shift as well, right? Which is taking a super macro micro shift. You ma micro shift. Oh yeah, yeah, exactly. It is a micro shift. That is, that is fantastic. There isn't a base you don't cover. You've spoken a lot about community and both of you have, and serving the community as well as your engagement with them from a, I mean, it's given that you're both leaders stepping back, how, how Community First is Red Hat and OpenShift as an organization when it comes to building the next products and, and developing. >>I'll take and, and I'm sure Andy is actually the community, so I'm sure he'll want to a lot of it. But I mean, right from the start, we have roots in open source. I'll keep it, you know, and, and, and certainly with es we were one of the original contributors to Kubernetes other than Google. So in some ways we think about as co-creators of es, they love that. And then, yeah, then we have added a lot of things in conjunction with the, I I talk about like SCC for Secure, which has become part security right now, which the community, we added things like our back and other what we thought were enterprise features needed because we actually wanted to build a product out of it and sell it to customers where our customers are enterprises. So we have worked with the community. Sometimes we have been ahead of the community and we have convinced the community. Sometimes the community has been ahead of us for other reasons. So it's been a great collaboration, which is I think the right thing to do. But Andy, as I said, >>Is the community well set too? Are well said. >>Yes, I agree with all of that. I spend most of my days thinking about how to interact with the community and engage with them. So the work that we're doing on kcp, we want it to be a community project and we want to involve as many people as we can. So it is a heavy focus for me and my team. And yeah, we we do >>It all the time. How's it going? How's the project going? You feel good >>About it? I do. It is, it started as an experiment or set of prototypes and has grown leaps and bounds from it's roots and it's, it's fantastic. Yeah. >>Controlled planes are hot data planes control planes. >>I >>Know, I love it. Making things work together horizontally scalable. Yeah. Sounds like cloud cloud native. >>Yeah. I mean, just to add to it, there are a couple of talks that on KCP at Con that our colleagues s Stephan Schemanski has, and I, I, I would urge people who have listening, if they have, just Google it, if you will, and you'll get them. And those are really awesome talks to get more about >>It. Oh yeah, no, and you can tell on GitHub that KCP really is a community project and how many people are participating. It's always fun to watch the action live to. Sure. Andy, thank you so much for being here with us, John. Wonderful questions this afternoon. And thank all of you for tuning in and listening to us here on the Cube Live from Detroit. I'm Savannah Peterson. Look forward to seeing you again very soon.

SUMMARY :

John, how you doing? This is what's gonna, how are the next generation software revolution? is familiar, but just in case, let's give 'em a quick one-liner pitch so everyone's on the same page. So it's basically Kubernetes, but you know, with a CNCF ecosystem around it to How does it feel to be here? I haven't been to coupon since San Diego, so it's great to be back in And you gotta ask, before we came on camera, you're like, this is like my sixth co con. I mean, so what, What's the magnitude of change? And what's great is seeing lots of new people interested in contributing And the project management side, you get the keys to the Kingdom with Red Hat OpenShift, I mean you should see the number of just case studies that our One of the things we've been reporting here in the Qla scene before, but here more important is just that if you mission of developers being in charge and large scale? And so we're trying to make that faster and easier for, So the developer basically looks at it as a resource blob. It's like, it's like they have their own cluster, but you don't have to go through the process What's the what's, what's the, what's the benefit and what was the alternative to How much time does that take? Anywhere from five minutes to an hour you can use cloud services. Yeah. do all of that too. Why do something that's been done, if there's a tool that can get you a couple steps down the And the one that again, we are focused And you know, they're, they're savvy. they use best of tools, I mean automation, you know, complete automation, And there is definitely, you know, more, the psychology Yeah, let's talk about that a little bit because I, as you know, as we know, we're very excited about Edge here at the Cube. Even on the You could, I mean, in fact you mentioned space. So the reason I tag back to So the developers need to be productive. And through some super cool new easy to use tools that we have as a How do you guys see that evolving with Red I think, even than we were before. And as you know, with re we kind of have roots in secure operating And so that secures the supply chain. I wanna thank you guys for coming on. I think, I mean, the shortest answer that I can give there really is, you know, the patterns that we use for developing are very consistent. Keep it simple, stupid almost is that acronym, but the consistency and the de facto alignment Yes. and serving the community as well as your engagement with them from a, it. But I mean, right from the start, we have roots in open source. Is the community well set too? So the work that we're doing on kcp, It all the time. I do. Yeah. And those are really awesome talks to get more about And thank all of you

AnsibleFest 2022 theCUBE Report Summary


 

(soft music) >> Welcome back to Chicago guys and gals. Lisa Martin here with John Furrier. We have been covering Ansible Fest '22 for the last two days. This is our show wrap. We're going to leave you with some great insights into the things that we were able to dissect over the last two days. John, this has been an action packed two days. A lot of excitement, a lot of momentum. Good to be back in person. >> It's great to be back in person. It was the first time for you to do Ansible Fest. >> Yes. >> My first one was 2019 in person. That's the last time they had an event in person. So again, it's a very chill environment here, but it's content packed, great active loyal community and is growing. It's changing. Ansible now owned by Red Hat, and now Red Hat owned by IBM. Kind of see some game changing kind of movements here on the chess board, so to speak, in the industry. Ansible has always been a great product. It started in open source. It evolved configuration management configuring servers, networks. You know, really the nuts and bolts of IT. And became a fan favorite mainly because it was built by the fans and I think that never stopped. And I think you started to see an opportunity for Ansible to be not only just a, I won't say niche product or niche kind of use case to being the overall capabilities for large scale enterprise system architectures, system management. So it's very interesting. I mean I find it fascinating how, how it stays relevant and cool and continues to power through a massive shift >> A massive shift. They've done a great job though since the inception and through the acquisition of being still community first. You know, we talked a lot yesterday and today about helping organizations become automation first that Ansible has really stayed true to its roots in being community first, community driven and really that community flywheel was something that was very obvious the last couple of days. >> Yeah, I mean the community thing is is is their production system. I mean if you look at Red Hat, their open source, Ansible started open source, good that they're together. But what people may or may not know about Ansible is that they build their product from the community. So the community actually makes the suggestions. Ansible's just in listening modes. So when you have a system that's that efficient where you have direct working backwards from the customer like that, it's very efficient. Now, as a product manager you might want to worry about scope creep, but at the end of the day they do a good job of democratizing that process. So again, very strong product production system with open source, very relevant, solves the right problems. But this year the big story to me is the cultural shift of Ansible's relevance. And I think with multicloud on the horizon, operations is the new kind of developer kind of ground. DevOps has been around for a while. That's now shifted up to the developer themselves, the cloud native developer. But at cloud scale and hybrid computing, it's about the operations. It's about the data and the security. All of it's about the data. So to me there's a new ops configuration operating model that you're seeing people use, SRE and DevOps. That's the new culture, and the persona's changing. The operator of a large scale enterprise is going to be a lot different than it was past five, 10 years. So major cultural shift, and I think this community's going to step up to that position and fill that role. >> They seem to be having a lot of success meeting people where they are, meeting the demographics, delivering on how their community wants to work, how they want to collaborate. But yesterday you talked about operations. We talked a lot about Ops as code. Talk about what does that mean from your perspective, and what did you hear from our guests on the program with respect that being viable? >> Well great, that's a great point. Ops as code is the kind of their next layer of progression. Infrastructure is code. Configuration is code. Operations is code. To me that means running the company as software. So software influencing how operators, usually hardware in the past. Now it's infrastructure and software going to run things. So ops as code's, the next progression in how people are going to manage it. And I think most people think of that as enterprises get larger, when they hear words like SRE, which stands for Site Reliable Engineer. That came out of Google, and Google had all these servers that ran the search engine and at scale. And so one person managed boatload of servers and that was efficient. It was like a multiple 10x engineer, they used to call it. So that that was unique to Google but not everyone's Google. So it became language or parlance for someone who's running infrastructure but not everyone's that scale. So scale is a big issue. Ops as code is about scale and having that program ability as an operator. That's what Ops as code is. And that to me is a sign of where the scale meets the automation. Large scale is hard to do. Automating at large scale is even harder. So that's where Ansible fits in with their new automation platform. And you're seeing new things like signing code, making sure it's trusted and verified. So that's the software supply chain issue. So they're getting into the world where software, open source, automation are all happening at scale. So to me that's a huge concept of Ops as code. It's going to be very relevant, kind of the next gen positioning. >> Let's switch gears and talk about the partner ecosystem. We had Stefanie Chiras on yesterday, one of our longtime theCUBE alumni, talking about what they're doing with AWS in the marketplace. What was your take on that, and what's the "what's in it for me" for both Red Hat, Ansible and AWS? >> Yeah, so the big news on the automation platform was one. The other big news I thought was really, I won't say watered down, but it seems small but it's not. It's the Amazon Web Services relationship with Red Hat, now Ansible, where Ansible's now a product in AWS's marketplace. AWS marketplace is kind of hanging around. It's a catalog right now. It's not the most advanced technical system in the world, and it does over 2 billion plus revenue transactions. So even if it's just sitting there as a large marketplace, that's already doing massive amounts of disruption in the procurement, how software is bought. So we interviewed them in the past, and they're innovating on that. They're going to make that a real great platform. But the fact that Ansible's in the marketplace means that their sales are going to go up, number one. Number two, that means customers can consume it simply by clicking a button on their Amazon bill. That means they don't have to do anything. It's like getting a PO for free. It's like, hey, I'm going to buy Ansible, click, click, click. And then by the way, draw that down from their commitment to AWS. So that means Amazon's going into business with Ansible, and that is a huge revenue thing for Ansible, but also an operational efficiency thing that gives them more of an advantage over the competition. >> Talk what's in it for me as a customer. At Red Hat Summit a few months ago they announced similar partnership with Azure. Now we're talking about AWS. Customers are living in this hybrid cloud world, often by default. We're going to see that proliferate. What do you think this means for customers in terms of being able to- >> In the marketplace deal or Ansible? >> Yeah, the marketplace deal, but also what Red Hat and Ansible are doing with the hyperscalers to enable customers to live successfully in the hyper hybrid cloud world. >> It's just in the roots of the company. They give them the choice to consume the product on clouds that they like. So we're seeing a lot of clients that have standardized on AWS with their dev teams but also have productivity software on Azure. So you have the large enterprises, they sit on both clouds. So you know, Ansible, the customer wants to use Ansible anyway, they want that to happen. So it's a natural thing for them to work anywhere. I call that the Switzerland strategy. They'll play with all the clouds. Even though the clouds are fighting against each other, and they have to to differentiate, there's still going to be some common services. I think Ansible fits this shim layer between clouds but also a bolt on. Now that's a really a double win for them. They can bolt on to the cloud, Azure and bolt on to AWS and Google, and also be a shim layer technically in clouds as well. So there's two technical advantages to that strategy >> Can Ansible be a facilitator of hybrid cloud infrastructure for organizations, or a catalyst? >> I think it's going to be a gateway on ramp or gateway to multicloud or supercloud, as we call it, because Ansible's in that configuration layer. So you know, it's interesting to hear the IBM research story, which we're going to get to in a second around how they're doing the AI for Ansible with that wisdom project. But the idea of configuring stuff on the fly is really a concept that's needed for multicloud 'Cause programs don't want to have to configure anything. (he laughs) So standing up an application to run on Azure that's on AWS that spans both clouds, you're going to need to have that automation, and I think this is an opportunity whether they can get it or not, we'll see. I think Red Hat is probably angling on that hard, and I can see them kind of going there and some of the commentary kind of connects the dots for that. >> Let's dig into some of news that came out today. You just alluded to this. IBM research, we had on with Red Hat. Talk about what they call project wisdom, the value in that, what it also means for for Red Hat and IBM working together very synergistically. >> I mean, I think the project wisdom is an interesting dynamic because you got the confluence of the organic community of Ansible partnering with a research institution of IBM research. And I think that combination of practitioners and research groups is going to map itself out to academic and then you're going to see this kind of collaboration going forward. So I think it's a very nuanced story, but the impact to me is very clear that this is the new power brokers in the tech industry, because researchers have a lot of muscle in terms of deep research in the academic area, and the practitioners are the ones who are actually doing it. So when you bring those two forces together, that pretty much trumps any kind of standards bodies or anything else. So I think that's a huge signaling benefit to Ansible and Red Hat. I think that's an influence of Red Hat being bought by IBM. But the project itself is really amazing. It's taking AI and bringing it to Ansible, so you can do automated configurations. So for people who don't know how to code they can actually just automate stuff and know the process. I don't need to be a coder, I can just use the AI to do that. That's a low code, no code dynamic. That kind of helps with skill gaps, because I need to hire someone to do that. Today if I want to automate something, and I don't know how to code, I've got to get someone who codes. Here I can just do it and automate it. So if that continues to progress the way they want it to, that could literally be a game changer, 'cause now you have software configuring machines and that's pretty badass in my opinion. So that thought that was pretty cool. And again it's just an evolution of how AI is becoming more relevant. And I think it's directionally correct, and we'll see how it goes. >> And they also talked about we're nearing an inflection point in AI. You agree? >> Yeah I think AI is at an inflection point because it just falls short on the scale side. You see it with chatbots, NLP. You see what Amazon's doing. They're building these models. I think we're one step away from model scaling. I think the building the models is going to be one of these things where you're going to start to see marketplace and models and you start to composability of AI. That's where it's going to get very interesting to see which cloud is the best AI scale. So I think AI at scale's coming, and that's going to be something to watch really closely. >> Something exciting. Another thing that was big news today was the event driven Ansible. Talk about that, and that's something they've been working on in conjunction with the community for quite a while. They were very proud of that release and what that's going to enable organizations to do. >> Well I think that's more meat on the bone on the AI side 'cause in the big trend right now is MLAI ops. You hear that a lot. Oh, data ops or AI ops. What event driven automation does is allows you to take things that are going on in your world, infrastructure, triggers, alarms, notifications, data pipelining flows, things that go on in the plumbing of infrastructure. are being monitored and observed. So when events happen they trigger events. You want to stream something, you send a trigger and things happen. So these are called events. Events are wide ranging number of events. Kafka streaming for data. You got anything that produces data is an event. So harnessing that data into a pipeline is huge. So doing that at scale, that's where I think that product's a home run, and I think that's going to be a very valuable product, 'cause once you understand what the event triggers are, you then can automate that, and no humans involved. So that will save a lot of time for people in the the higher pay grade of MLAI ops automate some of that low level plumbing. They move their skill set to something more valuable or more impactful. >> And we talked about, speaking of impact, we talked about a lot of the business impact that organizations across industries are going to be able to likely achieve by using that. >> Yeah, I mean I think that you're going to see the community fill the gap on that. I mean the big part about all this is that their community builds the product and they have the the playbooks and they're shareable and they're reusable. So we produce content as a media company. They'd talk about content as is playbooks and documentation for people to use. So reuse and and reusing these playbooks is a huge part of it. So as they build up these catalogs and these playbooks and rules, it gets better by the community. So it's going to be interesting to see the adoption. That's going to be a big tell sign for what's going to happen. >> Yep, we get definitely are going to be watching that space. And the last thing, we got to talk to a couple of customers. We talked to Wells Fargo who says "We are a tech company that does banking," which I loved. We got to talk with Rockwell Automation. What are some of your takeaways from how the customers are leveraging Ansible and the technology to drive their businesses forward to meet demanding customers where they are? >> I think you're seeing the script flipping a little bit here, where the folks that used to use Ansible for configuration are flipping to be on the front edge of the innovation strategy where what process to automate is going to drive the profitability and scale. Cause you're talking about things like skill gaps, workflows. These are business constructs and people These are assets so they have economic value. So before it was just, IT serve the business, configure some servers, do some stuff. When you start getting into automation where you have expertise around what this means, that's economic value. So I think you're going to see the personas change significantly in this community where they're on the front lines, kind of like developers are. That's why ops as code is to me a developer kind of vibe. That's going to completely change how operations runs in IT. And I think that's going to be a very interesting cultural shift. And some will make it, some won't. That's going to be a big thing. Some people say, I'm going to retire. I'm old school storage server person, or no, I'm the new guard. I'm going to be the new team. I'm going be on the right side of history here. So they're clearly going down that right path in my opinion. >> What's your overall summary in the last minute of what this event delivered the last couple of days in terms of really talking about the transformation of enterprises and industries through automation? >> I think the big takeaway from me in listening and reading the tea leaves was the Ansible company and staff and the community together. It was really a call for arms. Like, hey, we've had it right from the beginning. We're on the right wave and the wave's getting bigger. So expand your scope, uplevel your skills. They're on the right side of history. And I think the message was engage more. Bring more people in because it is open source, and if they are on that track, you're going to see more of hey, we got it right, let's continue. So they got platform release. They got the key products coming out after years of work. So you know, they're doing their work. And the message I heard was, it's bigger than we thought. So I think that's interesting. We'll see what that means. We're going to unpack that after the event in series of showcases. But yeah, it was very positive, I thought. Very positive. >> Yeah, I think there was definitely some surprises in there for them. John, thank you so much. It's been a pleasure co-hosting with you the last couple of days, really uncovering what Ansible is doing, what they're enabling customers in every industry to achieve. >> Been fun. >> Yes. All right for my co-host, John Furrier, I'm Lisa Martin. You've been watching theCUBE's coverage of Ansible Fest 2022 live from Chicago. We hope you take good care and we'll see you soon.

Breaking Analysis: H1 of ‘22 was ugly…H2 could be worse Here’s why we’re still optimistic


 

>> From theCUBE Studios in Palo Alto in Boston, bringing you data driven insights from theCUBE and ETR. This is Breaking Analysis with Dave Vellante. >> After a two-year epic run in tech, 2022 has been an epically bad year. Through yesterday, The NASDAQ composite is down 30%. The S$P 500 is off 21%. And the Dow Jones Industrial average 16% down. And the poor holders at Bitcoin have had to endure a nearly 60% decline year to date. But judging by the attendance and enthusiasm, in major in-person tech events this spring. You'd never know that tech was in the tank. Moreover, walking around the streets of Las Vegas, where most tech conferences are held these days. One can't help but notice that the good folks of Main Street, don't seem the least bit concerned that the economy is headed for a recession. Hello, and welcome to this weeks Wiki Bond Cube Insights powered by ETR. In this Breaking Analysis we'll share our main takeaways from the first half of 2022. And talk about the outlook for tech going forward, and why despite some pretty concerning headwinds we remain sanguine about tech generally, but especially enterprise tech. Look, here's the bumper sticker on why many folks are really bearish at the moment. Of course, inflation is high, other than last year, the previous inflation high this century was in July of 2008, it was 5.6%. Inflation has proven to be very, very hard to tame. You got gas at $7 dollars a gallon. Energy prices they're not going to suddenly drop. Interest rates are climbing, which will eventually damage housing. Going to have that ripple effect, no doubt. We're seeing layoffs at companies like Tesla and the crypto names are also trimming staff. Workers, however are still in short supply. So wages are going up. Companies in retail are really struggling with the right inventory, and they can't even accurately guide on their earnings. We've seen a version of this movie before. Now, as it pertains to tech, Crawford Del Prete, who's the CEO of IDC explained this on theCUBE this very week. And I thought he did a really good job. He said the following, >> Matt, you have a great statistic that 80% of companies used COVID as their point to pivot into digital transformation. And to invest in a different way. And so what we saw now is that tech is now where I think companies need to focus. They need to invest in tech. They need to make people more productive with tech and it played out in the numbers. Now so this year what's fascinating is we're looking at two vastly different markets. We got gasoline at $7 a gallon. We've got that affecting food prices. Interesting fun fact recently it now costs over $1,000 to fill an 18 wheeler. All right, based on, I mean, this just kind of can't continue. So you think about it. >> Don't put the boat in the water. >> Yeah, yeah, yeah. Good luck if ya, yeah exactly. So a family has kind of this bag of money, and that bag of money goes up by maybe three, 4% every year, depending upon earnings. So that is sort of sloshing around. So if food and fuel and rent is taking up more, gadgets and consumer tech are not, you're going to use that iPhone a little longer. You're going to use that Android phone a little longer. You're going to use that TV a little longer. So consumer tech is getting crushed, really it's very, very, and you saw it immediately in ad spending. You've seen it in Meta, you've seen it in Facebook. Consumer tech is doing very, very, it is tough. Enterprise tech, we haven't been in the office for two and a half years. We haven't upgraded whether that be campus wifi, whether that be servers, whether that be commercial PCs as much as we would have. So enterprise tech, we're seeing double digit order rates. We're seeing strong, strong demand. We have combined that with a component shortage, and you're seeing some enterprise companies with a quarter of backlog, I mean that's really unheard of. >> And higher prices, which also profit. >> And therefore that drives up the prices. >> And this is a theme that we've heard this year at major tech events, they've really come roaring back. Last year, theCUBE had a huge presence at AWS Reinvent. The first Reinvent since 2019, it was really well attended. Now this was before the effects of the omicron variant, before they were really well understood. And in the first quarter of 2022, things were pretty quiet as far as tech events go But theCUBE'a been really busy this spring and early into the summer. We did 12 physical events as we're showing here in the slide. Coupa, did Women in Data Science at Stanford, Coupa Inspire was in Las Vegas. Now these are both smaller events, but they were well attended and beat expectations. San Francisco Summit, the AWS San Francisco Summit was a bit off, frankly 'cause of the COVID concerns. They were on the rise, then we hit Dell Tech World which was packed, it had probably around 7,000 attendees. Now Dockercon was virtual, but we decided to include it here because it was a huge global event with watch parties and many, many tens of thousands of people attending. Now the Red Hat Summit was really interesting. The choice that Red Hat made this year. It was purposefully scaled down and turned into a smaller VIP event in Boston at the Western, a couple thousand people only. It was very intimate with a much larger virtual presence. VeeamON was very well attended, not as large as previous VeeamON events, but again beat expectations. KubeCon and Cloud Native Con was really successful in Spain, Valencia, Spain. PagerDuty Summit was again a smaller intimate event in San Francisco. And then MongoDB World was at the new Javits Center and really well attended over the three day period. There were lots of developers there, lots of business people, lots of ecosystem partners. And then the Snowflake summit in Las Vegas, it was the most vibrant from the standpoint of the ecosystem with nearly 10,000 attendees. And I'll come back to that in a moment. Amazon re:Mars is the Amazon AI robotic event, it's smaller but very, very cool, a lot of innovation. And just last week we were at HPE Discover. They had around 8,000 people attending which was really good. Now I've been to over a dozen HPE or HPE Discover events, within Europe and the United States over the past decade. And this was by far the most vibrant, lot of action. HPE had a little spring in its step because the company's much more focused now but people was really well attended and people were excited to be there, not only to be back at physical events, but also to hear about some of the new innovations that are coming and HPE has a long way to go in terms of building out that ecosystem, but it's starting to form. So we saw that last week. So tech events are back, but they are smaller. And of course now a virtual overlay, they're hybrid. And just to give you some context, theCUBE did, as I said 12 physical events in the first half of 2022. Just to compare that in 2019, through June of that year we had done 35 physical events. Yeah, 35. And what's perhaps more interesting is we had our largest first half ever in our 12 year history because we're doing so much hybrid and virtual to compliment the physical. So that's the new format is CUBE plus digital or sometimes just digital but that's really what's happening in our business. So I think it's a reflection of what's happening in the broader tech community. So everyone's still trying to figure that out but it's clear that events are back and there's no replacing face to face. Or as I like to say, belly to belly, because deals are done at physical events. All these events we've been to, the sales people are so excited. They're saying we're closing business. Pipelines coming out of these events are much stronger, than they are out of the virtual events but the post virtual event continues to deliver that long tail effect. So that's not going to go away. The bottom line is hybrid is the new model. Okay let's look at some of the big themes that we've taken away from the first half of 2022. Now of course, this is all happening under the umbrella of digital transformation. I'm not going to talk about that too much, you've had plenty of DX Kool-Aid injected into your veins over the last 27 months. But one of the first observations I'll share is that the so-called big data ecosystem that was forming during the hoop and around, the hadoop infrastructure days and years. then remember it dispersed, right when the cloud came in and kind of you know, not wiped out but definitely dampened the hadoop enthusiasm for on-prem, the ecosystem dispersed, but now it's reforming. There are large pockets that are obviously seen in the various clouds. And we definitely see a ecosystem forming around MongoDB and the open source community gathering in the data bricks ecosystem. But the most notable momentum is within the Snowflake ecosystem. Snowflake is moving fast to win the day in the data ecosystem. They're providing a single platform that's bringing different data types together. Live data from systems of record, systems of engagement together with so-called systems of insight. These are converging and while others notably, Oracle are architecting for this new reality, Snowflake is leading with the ecosystem momentum and a new stack is emerging that comprises cloud infrastructure at the bottom layer. Data PaaS layer for app dev and is enabling an ecosystem of partners to build data products and data services that can be monetized. That's the key, that's the top of the stack. So let's dig into that further in a moment but you're seeing machine intelligence and data being driven into applications and the data and application stacks they're coming together to support the acceleration of physical into digital. It's happening right before our eyes in every industry. We're also seeing the evolution of cloud. It started with the SaaS-ification of the enterprise where organizations realized that they didn't have to run their own software on-prem and it made sense to move to SaaS for CRM or HR, certainly email and collaboration and certain parts of ERP and early IS was really about getting out of the data center infrastructure management business called that cloud 1.0, and then 2.0 was really about changing the operating model. And now we're seeing that operating model spill into on-prem workloads finally. We're talking about here about initiatives like HPE's Green Lake, which we heard a lot about last week at Discover and Dell's Apex, which we heard about in May, in Las Vegas. John Furrier had a really interesting observation that basically this is HPE's and Dell's version of outposts. And I found that interesting because outpost was kind of a wake up call in 2018 and a shot across the bow at the legacy enterprise infrastructure players. And they initially responded with these flexible financial schemes, but finally we're seeing real platforms emerge. Again, we saw this at Discover and at Dell Tech World, early implementations of the cloud operating model on-prem. I mean, honestly, you're seeing things like consoles and billing, similar to AWS circa 2014, but players like Dell and HPE they have a distinct advantage with respect to their customer bases, their service organizations, their very large portfolios, especially in the case of Dell and the fact that they have more mature stacks and knowhow to run mission critical enterprise applications on-prem. So John's comment was quite interesting that these firms are basically building their own version of outposts. Outposts obviously came into their wheelhouse and now they've finally responded. And this is setting up cloud 3.0 or Supercloud, as we like to call it, an abstraction layer, that sits above the clouds that serves as a unifying experience across a continuum of on-prem across clouds, whether it's AWS, Azure, or Google. And out to both the near and far edge, near edge being a Lowes or a Home Depot, but far edge could be space. And that edge again is fragmented. You've got the examples like the retail stores at the near edge. Outer space maybe is the far edge and IOT devices is perhaps the tiny edge. No one really knows how the tiny edge is going to play out but it's pretty clear that it's not going to comprise traditional X86 systems with a cool name tossed out to the edge. Rather, it's likely going to require a new low cost, low power, high performance architecture, most likely RM based that will enable things like realtime AI inferencing at that edge. Now we've talked about this a lot on Breaking Analysis, so I'm not going to double click on it. But suffice to say that it's very possible that new innovations are going to emerge from the tiny edge that could really disrupt the enterprise in terms of price performance. Okay, two other quick observations. One is that data protection is becoming a much closer cohort to the security stack where data immutability and air gaps and fast recovery are increasingly becoming a fundamental component of the security strategy to combat ransomware and recover from other potential hacks or disasters. And I got to say from our observation, Veeam is leading the pack here. It's now claiming the number one revenue spot in a statistical dead heat with the Dell's data protection business. That's according to Veeam, according to IDC. And so that space continues to be of interest. And finally, Broadcom's acquisition of Dell. It's going to have ripple effects throughout the enterprise technology business. And there of course, there are a lot of questions that remain, but the one other thing that John Furrier and I were discussing last night John looked at me and said, "Dave imagine if VMware runs better on Broadcom components and OEMs that use Broadcom run VMware better, maybe Broadcom doesn't even have to raise prices on on VMware licenses. Maybe they'll just raise prices on the OEMs and let them raise prices to the end customer." Interesting thought, I think because Broadcom is so P&L focused that it's probably not going to be the prevailing model but we'll see what happens to some of the strategic projects rather like Monterey and Capitola and Thunder. We've talked a lot about project Monterey, the others we'll see if they can make the cut. That's one of the big concerns because it's how OEMs like the ones that are building their versions of outposts are going to compete with the cloud vendors, namely AWS in the future. I want to come back to the comment on the data stack for a moment that we were talking about earlier, we talked about how the big data ecosystem that was once coalescing around hadoop dispersed. Well, the data value chain is reforming and we think it looks something like this picture, where cloud infrastructure lives at the bottom. We've said many times the cloud is expanding and evolving. And if companies like Dell and HPE can truly build a super cloud infrastructure experience then they will be in a position to capture more of the data value. If not, then it's going to go to the cloud players. And there's a live data layer that is increasingly being converged into platforms that not only simplify the movement in ELTing of data but also allow organizations to compress the time to value. Now there's a layer above that, we sometimes call it the super PaaS layer if you will, that must comprise open source tooling, partners are going to write applications and leverage platform APIs and build data products and services that can be monetized at the top of the stack. So when you observe the battle for the data future it's unlikely that any one company is going to be able to do this all on their own, which is why I often joke that the 2020s version of a sweaty Steve Bomber running around the stage, screaming, developers, developers developers, and getting the whole audience into it is now about ecosystem ecosystem ecosystem. Because when you need to fill gaps and accelerate features and provide optionality a list of capabilities on the left hand side of this chart, that's going to come from a variety of different companies and places, we're talking about catalogs and AI tools and data science capabilities, data quality, governance tools and it should be of no surprise to followers of Breaking Analysis that on the right hand side of this chart we're including the four principles of data mesh, which of course were popularized by Zhamak Dehghani. So decentralized data ownership, data as products, self-serve platform and automated or computational governance. Now whether this vision becomes a reality via a proprietary platform like Snowflake or somehow is replicated by an open source remains to be seen but history generally shows that a defacto standard for more complex problems like this is often going to emerge prior to an open source alternative. And that would be where I would place my bets. Although even that proprietary platform has to include open source optionality. But it's not a winner take all market. It's plenty of room for multiple players and ecosystem innovators, but winner will definitely take more in my opinion. Okay, let's close with some ETR data that looks at some of those major platform plays who talk a lot about digital transformation and world changing impactful missions. And they have the resources really to compete. This is an XY graphic. It's a view that we often show, it's got net score on the vertical access. That's a measure of spending momentum, and overlap or presence in the ETR survey. That red, that's the horizontal access. The red dotted line at 40% indicates that the platform is among the highest in terms of spending velocity. Which is why I always point out how impressive that makes AWS and Azure because not only are they large on the horizontal axis, the spending momentum on those two platforms rivals even that of Snowflake which continues to lead all on the vertical access. Now, while Google has momentum, given its goals and resources, it's well behind the two leaders. We've added Service Now and Salesforce, two platform names that have become the next great software companies. Joining likes of Oracle, which we show here and SAP not shown along with IBM, you can see them on this chart. We've also plotted MongoDB, which we think has real momentum as a company generally but also with Atlas, it's managed cloud database as a service specifically and Red Hat with trying to become the standard for app dev in Kubernetes environments, which is the hottest trend right now in application development and application modernization. Everybody's doing something with Kubernetes and of course, Red Hat with OpenShift wants to make that a better experience than do it yourself. The DYI brings a lot more complexity. And finally, we've got HPE and Dell both of which we've talked about pretty extensively here and VMware and Cisco. Now Cisco is executing on its portfolio strategy. It's got a lot of diverse components to its company. And it's coming at the cloud of course from a networking and security perspective. And that's their position of strength. And VMware is a staple of the enterprise. Yes, there's some uncertainty with regards to the Broadcom acquisition, but one thing is clear vSphere isn't going anywhere. It's entrenched and will continue to run lots of IT for years to come because it's the best platform on the planet. Now, of course, these are just some of the players in the mix. We expect that numerous non-traditional technology companies this is important to emerge as new cloud players. We've put a lot of emphasis on the data ecosystem because to us that's really going to be the main spring of digital, i.e., a digital company is a data company and that means an ecosystem of data partners that can advance outcomes like better healthcare, faster drug discovery, less fraud, cleaner energy, autonomous vehicles that are safer, smarter, more efficient grids and factories, better government and virtually endless litany of societal improvements that can be addressed. And these companies will be building innovations on top of cloud platforms creating their own super clouds, if you will. And they'll come from non-traditional places, industries, finance that take their data, their software, their tooling bring them to their customers and run them on various clouds.

Ryan King & Laurie Fontaine, Red Hat | HPE Discover 2022


 

>>The cube presents HPE discover 2022 brought to you by HPE. >>Hey everyone. Welcome back to the Cube's day one coverage of HPE. Discover 22 live from Las Vegas. Lisa Martin, here with Dave Velante of a couple of guests from red hat. You may have seen some news yesterday. We're gonna be talking about that. Please. Welcome Ryan King, the senior director of hardware partner ecosystem, and Lori Fontine joins us as well. The senior director of global commercial partner ecosystem. Welcome to the program guys. >>Thanks for having us. Yeah, >>Thank you so great to be back in person and nobody word has summit was just last month or so. That's right. Ryan. Talk about hybrid cloud. It's all the buzz. We've been talking a lot about it in the last hour and a half alone. What are some of the trends that, that red hat is seen with respect to hybrid cloud? >>Well, I, I mean, hybrid cloud of red hat has been a trend for quite some time. In fact, we were very early in setting our course towards hybrid cloud with our products and platforms. And that's been a key part of our strategy in terms of the number of transformations have been happening in the enterprise. And with HPE, we're super excited about, you know, we're hitting our stride with OpenShift. I've been working with OpenShift for the better part of my 10 years here at 12 years at red hat, 10 years with OpenShift. And we're very excited about seeing the pattern of going where customers want to build their cloud. It's very important that where, where the market is going. So we're seeing trends from the public cloud now go into edge and telco and 5g and really exceed, see them expanding their infrastructure footprint out to those use cases. And again, we see REL everywhere. So re has continued to expand as well. And then Ansible automation platform has also been a great means of kind of bringing together community for that last mile of automating your entire infrastructure. >>Well, the Lin, the functionality of Linux continues to improve OpenShift is everywhere. I mean, I remember at the red hat summit, I mean, well, we, we, we coined this term super cloud, which is this layer that floats, you know, on-prem took across clouds out to the edge we had Verizon on. They were talking about, you know, 5g developers and how they're developing using, you know, a combination of, of, of OpenShift. So guys have been really crushing it with, with OpenShift. I remember, gosh, I mean, we've been covering, you know, red hat summits for a long time now. And just to see that evolution is actually quite amazing. >>Yeah. It's actually really neat to see our CEOs align too. Right. So the messaging that we've had around hybrid cloud from red hat, like you said, we were kind of the pioneers, honestly, this we've been talking about hybrid cloud from the very beginning. We always knew that it wasn't gonna be public cloud or private cloud. We had to have, you know, hybrid. And, and it's interesting to see that Antonio, you know, took that on and wanted to say, we're gonna do everything as a service right. A few years ago. And, and the whole theme was around hybrid cloud and giving customers that choice. Right? So it's exciting for us to see all of that come together. And I actually worked for HP for like 17 and a half years. So it's really fun for me to be on this side now with red hat and see the messaging come together, the vision come together and just really being able to align and move forward on >>This tremendous amount of transformation in the last few years >>Alone. Oh my gosh, we >>Talk about, you know, customers need choice. They want choice, but you also talked about, we have to meet customers where they are. That seems the last few years to have accelerated, there is no more option for companies. You've gotta meet the customers where they are. >>Exactly. Yeah. And it's all about choice, like you said, and it, everybody's got, you know, their own way to do everything as far as consumption goes and we have to be available and spot on with it, you know, and be able to move quickly with these trends that we're seeing. And so it's great to be aligned. And >>From a partnership standpoint, I mean, you, you mentioned H HP 17 years. I mean, it was, it was a hard to follow company. You had, you had PCs over here, you had services, the kind of the old EDS business. Now there's such a focus absolutely. On this mission, absolutely. Of as a service. And, you know, obviously a key part of that is having optionality and bringing open source tooling into that. I mean, we heard about this in, in spades, at, at red hat summit, which is really interesting this year. It was a smaller VIP event in Boston. And I, and I loved it, you know, cuz it was really manageable. We had all the execs on and customers and partners. It was awesome. What's new since red hat summit. >>Well, I mean, I would say that obviously GreenLake and what we've announced this week is a big new thing for us, but really like we're just continuing on our pattern. We are. Now, if you look at the Q1 report from IBM, you'll see that the growth of the customer base for OpenShift that they reported just continues to go up into the right. You'll see that now, like AMIA is saying that we're like 47.8% of the containers market for the enterprise. You'll see that like we're now in 65% of the fortune 500 with OpenShift, 90% with red hat in general. So we've established our footprint. And when you establish your footprint and customers start taking you out to the edge, we're going into these 5g use cases, we're, we've got an incredible amount happening in the AI space, all these emerging areas of where people are building their cloud, like we're now going to that next level of saying, how do they want to consume it? >>So what's really important to me about that is, is so Omni data around 50% of the market is, is open shift. A people may not realize a lot of people use, you know, do Kubernetes for free, you know, Hey, we're doing Kubernetes, but they don't have that application development framework and all the recovery and all the, the tooling around it. And the reason why I think that's so important, Laurie is ecosystems wanna monetize. So people are paying for things that becomes more interesting and it actually starts to attract people just naturally. >>Yeah, absolutely. And speaking of ecosystem, I mean, that's the beauty of what we're doing with GreenLake too. We're taking on a building block approach. So we're really, it's kind of ISV as a service if you will. And you know, personally, I, this was my baby for the past couple years, trying to make sure that we took into consideration every partner use case, every customer use case. So we created an agreement that would make sense to be able to scale, but also to meet all the demands of our customers. And so the, the what's really exciting about this is now we have a chance to take this building block approach, scale it out to all types of partner types, right throughout the entire ecosystem and build offerings together. That is really exciting for us. And that's where we see the real potential here with GreenLake and with red hat, >>What's actually available inside a GreenLake. >>So we are starting with OpenShift. So OpenShift will be available in Q3 that will follow in Q4 with re and then after that Ansible. So we're, we're moving very quickly to bring our platforms into it and it's really our strategic platforms, but it's all based on customer demand. We know we're seeing amazing transformation of customers moving to Kubernetes. You said, you know, OpenShift is Kubernetes with useful additions to it and an ecosystem around it, right? So that transformation is also happening at the bare metal layer. So we're seeing people move into Kubernetes bare metal, which is an amazing growth market for us. >>Explain those useful additions if you would. So why shouldn't I just go out and, and get the free version of Kubernete? Why should I engage red hat and, and OpenShift? What do I get? >>So you get all the day, two management stuff, you get, we have a whole set of additional stuff you can purchase around it, OpenShift platform. Plus you can get our ACM, our advanced cluster management. So you wanna manage multiple clusters, right? You get the ACS, the security side of it. You can also get ODF. So you get storage built into it as well. And we've done all these integrations. You can manage the whole thing as a cluster or as multiple clusters with the whole enterprise support and the long term support that we provide for these things up to 10 years. So >>When you look at the early days lease of, of Kubernetes, it was really, the focus was on simplicity. You had other platforms that were actually doing more sophisticated cluster management. And the, the committers that in Kubernetes said, you know, we're not gonna do that. We're gonna keep it simple. And so that leave some holes and gaps and you know, they're starting to fill those, but what if, if correct me if I'm wrong, but what red hat has done is said, okay, we're gonna accelerate, you know, the, the, the closing of those gaps and stay ahead and actually offer incremental value. And that's why you're winning in the marketplace. >>Well, we're an open company, so we're still doing everything upstream and open source as we do, of course, sticking with, you know, the APIs and APIs to make this all work, both, you know, in terms of what the community's trying to drive, what we're trying to drive for our customers on their behalf. And then just where things are going from a technology basis, make it a lot of investment, >>But you have to, you have to make a red hat, has to make a choice as to where it puts its commitments. You can't spread yourself too thin, so you gotta pick your spots. And you've, you've proven that you're pretty adept at doing that. >>That just comes back to customer centricity, right. And just knowing where our customers need to take the platform. That's, >>That's easy to say, but it's, it's an art form. And a little bit of science. >>Remember these customers have experts that are deep in this space. So it's like, you know, those experts trust us with where they needed to go. And they trust us to help shepherd that and deliver that as a platform to them. So it's not like anybody tell us what you want, right? Like it's really about like, knowing what's the best way to do it. And working with the people that can help you understand how to apply that to their use case >>And within the customer environment, who are you working with? Who is that key constituent or constituents that are guiding red hat in this direction? >>Well, it's certainly infrastructure folks. So it's your, it's your standard folks that are looking at the, how do we lay down our infrastructure? How do we manage it? How do we grow it? It goes out to the application developers. They're trying to deliver this in a cloud native way. And we have new personas, you know, coming in with the AI practitioners, right? So we've announced at before summit at Invidia's event, their new offering called Invidia AI enterprise. And so that's them bringing in enterprise support for GPU, for Kuda and for a software stack above that to start offering some more support there. So they're certifying OpenShift, we're both certifying the servers that run underneath it, and then they're offering support for their stuff on top of it. And that's a whole new use case for us. >>And, you know, I should also mention that even though this paper use with the GreenLake is new for us, and we just had this big announcement, we have done GreenLake deals though. We've done numerous GreenLake deals with our annual subs, right? So I, so even though this is new to us, as far as, you know, monthly utilization and being able to do this cloud consumption this isn't new to us as two companies coming together, we've been doing GreenLake deals for the past couple years. It's just, now we have this cloud consumption availability, which is really gonna make this thing launch. So, >>So what have been some of the customer benefits so far, you've been doing it for a couple years. The announcement was yesterday, but there's obviously feed on the street going on. What are some of the, the big outcomes that you're seeing customers actually bring to reality? >>I think speed and agility, right? That's the biggest thing with, with our products, being able to have it everything predictable and being able to have it consumed one way, instead of having this fragmented customer experience, which is, you know, what we've seen in the past. So I think that's the biggest thing is speed agility and just, you know, a really good customer experience at this point. >>Go get it, please. >>I would say the customer experience is critical. Yes. That's one of the things that we know that in terms of, of patients wearing thin the last couple of years, people expect to have a really strong consumer experience regardless of what you're doing, regardless of what industry and so attention and mind on that is a differentiator in my opinion. >>Absolutely. Yeah. And we've gotta constantly keep our eye on that. I mean, that's, that's our north star, if you will. Right. So, and Lori, >>I know you've saying you're, you've done GreenLake deals in the past, but what feels different to me now in that it's actually coalescing some of the things that Alma Russo announced this morning, the platform on which, you know, ISV is a service. I think you, you called it. Yeah. You, it, it now seems like, you know, look a couple years ago, HP said, okay, this is the direction that we're going. Yeah. They weren't there at that time. And they're still not there. There's a lot of work to be, to be done. But now it's starting to form. You're seeing, you know, the pieces come together, the puzzle pieces that sort of substrate being laid out. And now you're hoping that we see the steep part of the S-curve and that's what customers I think are expecting. >>Right. And it's bringing that operating model to move to a monthly model so they can do pay as you go. Right. And that pairs up nicely with like the cloud native capabilities we're bringing to OpenShift and hybrid cloud in general. So it's, it just shows like we're already getting demand from customers. It's saying like, this is part of our model. Like we know a certain amount of infrastructure we wanna own, and we just wanna own it outright, but there's a lot that they want to have flexibility on. And so being able to add that portion to it is just, you know, gonna help us both. >>And you think about the critical aspects of, of the cloud operating model. It's obviously pay as you go it's, you know, massive scale it's ecosystem enablement, and also automation. I mean, that is, that is a key, what's your point of view on that? You guys with Ansible, you, you, you know, you go back to a couple years ago and it was, you know, there was this, there were a lot of other tooling, but now, I mean, Ansible is really taken off. Yeah. >>It's just, you know, Cinderella story, right? Like it really an amazing community driven thing where we just knew, we all know this, right. You have, when you get to the very last mile of doing infrastructure management, there's a variety of devices, there's variety, a variety of vendors. And then you have like the variety of skills of the people that have to figure out how to do automate all of this. And what Ansible did is it provided a common language across all of that. And so what we do with automation, our, an ible automation platform is we make it. So now teams can manage all of this together and they can share their playbooks and they can host that privately for all their enterprise stuff that they need to do. So it's just, you know, it fits our DNA so well to have something so community driven now with a really nice enterprise message wrapped around it. And it's playing out very well for where, you know, hybrid cloud. Right. Cause there's some more additional variety. You need to be able to manage, you know, across all of your different footprints, because really it's like, it's not just about flexibility and scale up scale down it's where do you need it to run at what time? Right. And that, that last leg Ansible plays a key role in that. >>And we actually, Ansible will be coming further down the, you know, the patch. I know we're gonna talk a little bit about what's available today versus what's available down the road, but yeah, we have that on the radar. So right outta the gate, we're working on OpenShift, obviously bare metal. And we see that happening in Q3 and then behind that as well in Q4 and then Ansible is gonna be right behind that. So that's kind of the order that, and there's other pieces, right? So our whole portfolio is basically available to HP right now. It's just making sure that we can operationalize everything and have the best experience >>All inside of GreenLake, >>All inside a GreenLake. Yeah. Pretty neat. Lori >>Question for you. You've been, you were with HP for a very long time. This is obviously the first discover in three years in person. Exactly. You know, three years ago, Antonio near stood on stage and said, we are going to buy 20, 22. And here we are deliver everything as a service, as a partner and as a former HP, what are you seeing at this discover 22? >>It's it's so interesting. I it's such a sea change if you will. Right. And having come from HPE, I actually led the software as a service organization for a while on the software side of things. And we thought that was like state of the art and cutting edge that was 10, 11, 12 years ago. Right. So to actually see this come to life, because we were all thinking really, everything is a service. How are you gonna do that? Like your entire portfolio is gonna be available. Like that is lofty. Right. And having worked at HP, I thought, wow, I don't, you know, I know things take time. And, but actually just even being around the showcase here and watching everything come to life is amazing. Cause I, I, you know, I, I was very positive about it, but at the same time, it's like that, that was a big goal three years. Right. And it's, I'm seeing it happen >>A big goal in two of those years during a pandemic. Right. So right. Talk about lofty. Oh my gosh. Quite a bit of accomplishments guys. Thank you so much for joining David me on the program talking about actually guys, this is great. What red hat and HPE are doing your power partnership, power ship. Is that a word? It is now your power. >>I like >>That with GreenLake. We appreciate that. We'll look forward to having you guys back on. >>Thank you so much, guys. >>All right. For our guests. I'm Lisa Martin. He's Dave ante. We are at HPE discover 22 live from the show floor in Las Vegas. This is just day one of our cupboards stick around. We'll be right back with our next guest.

SUMMARY :

the senior director of hardware partner ecosystem, and Lori Fontine joins us as well. Thanks for having us. Thank you so great to be back in person and nobody word has summit was just last month or so. And with HPE, we're super excited about, you know, I remember, gosh, I mean, we've been covering, you know, red hat summits for a long time And, and it's interesting to see that Antonio, you know, took that on and wanted to Oh my gosh, we Talk about, you know, customers need choice. with it, you know, and be able to move quickly with these trends that we're seeing. And I, and I loved it, you know, cuz it was really manageable. And when you establish your you know, do Kubernetes for free, you know, Hey, we're doing Kubernetes, but they don't have And you know, personally, I, this was my baby for the past couple years, trying to make sure that we took into You said, you know, OpenShift is Kubernetes with useful additions to it and an ecosystem Explain those useful additions if you would. So you get all the day, two management stuff, you get, we have a whole set of additional stuff you And the, the committers that in Kubernetes said, you know, we're not gonna do that. sticking with, you know, the APIs and APIs to make this all work, both, you know, in terms of what the community's trying But you have to, you have to make a red hat, has to make a choice as to where it puts its commitments. And just knowing where our customers need to take the platform. And a little bit of science. So it's like, you know, those experts trust us with And we have new personas, you know, this is new to us, as far as, you know, monthly utilization and being able to do this cloud consumption this So what have been some of the customer benefits so far, you've been doing it for a couple years. So I think that's the biggest thing is speed agility and just, you know, a really good customer experience at this point. That's one of the things that we know that in terms of, if you will. You're seeing, you know, the pieces come together, the puzzle pieces that sort of substrate being And it's bringing that operating model to move to a monthly model so they can do pay as you go. And you think about the critical aspects of, of the cloud operating model. So it's just, you know, it fits our DNA so well to have something so community driven now And we actually, Ansible will be coming further down the, you know, the patch. All inside a GreenLake. what are you seeing at this discover 22? I don't, you know, I know things take time. Thank you so much for joining David me on the program talking about actually guys, We'll look forward to having you guys back on. We are at HPE discover 22 live from the show floor in Las Vegas.

Sean Smith, VMware | VeeamON 2022


 

(upbeat music) >> Hi everybody. We're back at VeeamON 2022, we're winding down coverage to The Cube day two. We've done a lot of VeeamON. We're at the Aria hotel, smaller physical audience, huge hybrid audience, little different program. Great keynotes, really loved the keynote yesterday and today kind of product day today. Sean Smith is here with myself and David Nicholson. He's the staff Solution Architect at VMware. Sean, thanks for coming on the Cube, taking some time with us. >> Hey guys. Great to be here and great to be in person again. >> Yeah, it sure is. Hoping to see VMworld is no longer VMworld, right? >> It's VMware Explore now. Yep. >> Okay. Awesome. Looking forward to that. That was one of the first shows we ever did. It's kind of got that same vibe, I hope you don't lose that, the core of VMware. >> What we've been told is it's still going to be, the core of what we do and it's going to be the showcase of VMware. >> Which is the ecosystem, great vibe. You always know a million people there, which is great fun. How's it going at VMware today? I mean, let's start there. It's been a while since we've talked physically with... >> Yeah. VMware is, we've come through the pandemic, fairly well, relative speaking to what others have done. I'm part of the VCPP Program, the VMware Cloud Provider Program, and I look after cloud service providers, cloud builders, people who are actually building out networks for customers and environments that are very specialized and focusing on their needs and VMware is forefront with cloud service providers these days, doing really well. >> The last time we were physically proximate to VMware executives, I think Pat Gelsinger was still the CEO, Dell still owned the majority of VMware. So that spin happened. So that's good. I think the ecosystem in particular is probably really happy about that. Does it have any effect on your world? >> From a day to day business perspective, not really, right. Obviously we still have a very tight relationship with Dell. We still do a lot of innovative solutions and products with the Dell team. We have a tight integration there. It really gives us the opportunity to also work with many other vendors as well. And focus on solutions that our customers are looking for really, is where VMware is tryna focus. >> Yeah. It's funny, we were at Red Hat Summit last week. IBM Think was right across the street there was very little mention, if any, I think they talked about an IBM mainframe at Red Hat Summit. That was it. I mean IBM fully owns Red Hat, but a lot of people said, we hope that it's going to be like VMware and you guys have always had that independent culture. >> Fiercely independent. >> Fiercely independent. Yes. >> Yes. It's like when you coach, I don't know me anyway, when I coach my kids baseball, I'm a tougher on them than am with the other kids. I think you guys were sometimes tougher on your own or... And rightly so, you have a huge ecosystem. >> We do. >> That is epic. And so you have to look out for that. VMware has always done that. VCPP the V is for a VMware what's what's the acronym. >> So the CPP is Cloud Provider Program. It's a program that's specifically aimed at our cloud service providers. There's several solutions within the program, which are really focused on helping them build business, helping them go to market, helping them with being able to, for certain part of it compete with the hyperscalers and our support several cloud providers, mostly out of the Northeast, and they're doing really well. They're doing well against the hyperscalers, they very often provide solutions that are not easy to get on a hyperscaler. When you want to have customer interaction and things like that. So the VCP Program as I said, is really tailored, it has solutions which are very much focused on allowing them to build their businesses as a cloud service provider. >> Just a follow up if I may. >> Yeah. >> So the history of VMware Cloud has been really interesting. At one point vCloud Air, we know what happened there. This is not vCloud Air. >> This is not vCloud Air. It's got nothing to do with vCloud Air. It's really a program where we provide solutions that the cloud builders build with, right? So it's software solutions. There's no hardware involved. There's no VMware having the environment, it's really cloud providers building solutions. >> So it's interesting, Dave, this has come full circle, you used to work at Virtustream. There was point Rodney was like, bring it on AWS, correlation and back said, we can't lose to a book seller and all that was just, fun marketing talk for media people like us. But the interesting thing is, well, so VMware Cloud on AWS. Huge success of VMware Cloud Foundation. Doing really well. And obviously you've got momentum. Everybody thought, not everybody. >> It's in Google's, in Azure, it's in Oracle. >> Yeah, yeah. Sorry. >> It's an IBM. >> IBM a... >> It's an IBM. >> Number one in IBM. Yeah. >> And so a lot of people thought, I shouldn't say everybody, but a lot of people thought, MSPs, the cloud service providers, non-hyperscalers are cooked through 2010, 2011. The exact opposite happened. >> It's 100%. >> It's growing like crazy. We want to understand why, but it's come full circle. >> Yeah, it certainly has. I mean, the industry has changed considerably and especially over the last few years with COVID, I will say that the cloud service providers that are support and by the way, Virtustream was one of them, when I first joined VMware, I supported Virtustream. And they have had to adapt their businesses, the hyperscalers have come at them with everything that they've got and honesty, the cloud service providers that I support are phenomenal growth. They they're growing on a par with what some of the hyperscalers are doing. So there's definitely a place for cloud service providers, they've got great business, they've got great customers, great relationships. And it's as I said, it's growing a huge business. >> So we've talked a lot about theme from the perspective of the idea of a Supercloud. Something that can overlay a variety of on-premises and off-premises providers and provide sort of a unified view, unified management methodology. How much is what at least was formerly known as the SDDC stack, the Software Defined Data Center stack, still a part of VMwares vision that is right in line with that, from what Veeam is doing. How much of your business is deploying SDDC stacks that are then customized in one way or another. >> 100% of it. >> 100% of it. Right, okay. >> Yeah. So, when you're talking about having that single view of everything in the cloud provider program, there's a product called VMware Cloud Director. and it is the multi-tenant view of the infrastructure and the environment that the cloud providers are building. Right. So VMware Cloud Director has gone through many iterations and we've recently launched Cloud Director Service, which is a SaaS offering of the product. But what it actually does is you put it on top of VMC on AWS. you put it on top of GCVE, you put it on top of the cloud service providers, SDDCs, right. All of these are SDDCs underneath. >> AVS and Azure. >> AVS and Azure. >> I was associated with that. So I must have it mentioned. >> Exactly. >> They're all SDDC's. >> SDDC's, yeah, yeah, exactly. And as well as your on premise environment. Right. So all of these federate together through the VMware Cloud Director, and you end up having a single pane of glass across all of those environments. So whether it's running in the hyperscale, or running on your premises, running in a cloud service provider's environment, you have a single view, a single interface that you log into and you can see everything that's going on inside your environment. So it really brings that holistic, single view of everything to reality. >> How about from a licensing perspective? >> So from a licensing perspective... >> I'm a non-premises customer, I'm running VMware on-prem, I have been, I was at world VMworld 2004 and enjoyed BattleBots. So hopefully you'll start bringing BattleBots back. >> We will have to. >> And now I'm dealing with a service provider. That is one of the partners that you're working with. How does that licensing work? >> So the Cloud Provider Program actually has a slightly different licensing model to what you would have on premises, right? They have a rental model with VMware, it's a PAYGo model, right. One of the great things about the program is that it's consumption based. So it makes it easy for cloud service providers to build a consumption based business, which is kind of where everything is moving, right? >> Yeah, for sure. >> So whether you have an on-premise environment that's licensed through what we call perpetual or ELA licensing, from a VMware perspective, you can still layer on top, that cloud service provider solution VCD, right? And you would obviously have a financial relationship with the cloud service provider in terms of the environment that you have with them. And they will be able to hook up that environment to your on-premises environment and get that single view. So the licensing is not a restriction, right, you can still continue to have your traditional licensed environment in your data center, as well as being able to connect into these seamlessly, right. That's the great thing about it. And that's where VMC, AVS, GCVE, the OCVS, the Oracle version, the RBM one, you can bring all of these together and really look at it from a holistic perspective, bring in things like NSX-T and other solutions like that VM as well, it works seamlessly across all these environments. >> I am talking about Supercloud, I asked Raghu last year, who's virtually at VMworld, I kind of explained that concept of hiding the complexity, the abstraction layer, being able to hide the underlying primitives and APIs, seems like it's evolving. One of the things he said was yes, but if developers want to go there, we let them. And that was a key point, because you're getting more into that DevOps. >> Correct 100%. >> And I would imagine the cloud service providers really oftentimes need for their reasons to get to those underlying primitives and APIs. >> And actually VCD is the enabler, right? So VCD allows you to provide a container based service sitting right alongside your IAS in the same SDDC, right? We're not even talking about segregating them out, you can have it inside the exact same SDDC, all linked together, all taking a common security approach to what's going on and providing you with that ease of use. So from an end user perspective, the DevOps type of people, VCD is an awesome solution, because they can go in fire up a new VM, or fire up a new container or whatever, without having to go through the rigmarole of asking IT for a VM, or asking somebody's permission, as a organization, you would give your DevOps teams certain amount of resources, how they use it's up to them, right? Whether they put containers in there or they bring VMs, it's all there. And it's all in one single solution. >> You mentioned that your community is doing very well growing it let's call it 35, 40% a year. And it's a market that's quite large worldwide. Because it's a lot of local, regional CSPs, a lot of big country CSPs and you said... >> It's four and a 1/2 thousand of them. So, it's huge. >> There you >> Versus four hyperscalers. >> Yeah, exactly. >> Include Alibaba. So, they might be individually smaller, but collectively they're larger. But you said that the hyperscalers coming after them with everything they had was a comment that you made, are customers choosing CSPs over hyperscalers? If so, when and why. >> Sometimes they are choosing CSPs over hyperscalers, but not always, very often they're choosing CSPs and hyperscalers, right. And it really depends on what their needs are. So historically speaking, it's been everybody rushing to the hyperscalers because that's the flavor of the day let's move out of our data center. It's much cheaper to run everything in these hyperscalers, and they do it. And then the bill comes in and reality suddenly hits. And it's definitely not as cheap as they thought it was going to be, right. So there's many aspects that cause tenants to not only rethink that, but also repatriate, right. Repatriation is a big thing for our cloud service providers. Things like egress costs, most cloud service providers have no egress costs, right? They encourage movement of things amongst themselves and for their tenants, because that's what they want, right? So egress costs are a huge problem for many tenants who come into these environments and that's sometimes why they would choose a CSP over a hyperscaler. But really, it's more about choosing the right place for your workload. There are workloads that belong in hyperscalers, right? And if you have a solution with a CSP like VCD, that allows you not only to be able to connect your on premises and the CSP, but also the hyperscalers and actually have a much more holistic solution where you can determine where you want to put stuff and put it in the right place. It's more about that, than it is about choosing one over the other really. >> Yeah, and sometimes it's more of a business differentiation than a technical one. Is it a hyperscale or is it a CSP? If you're licensing the SDDC stack and you're running it on IAS in Amazon or in Google or Azure? >> I think the other thing too is the CSPs oftentimes they manage service providers, right? Is that true? >> The relationship, right? And that's one of the things if you talk to a cloud service provider and yesterday I was, I had a session and I was talking to a bunch of people about VMware stuff. And I said to them, how many of you have tried to pick up a phone and talk to somebody at AWS? And there was laughter, because the reality is that what AWS does is a kind of one size fits all approach, right? There isn't somebody on the end of the phone that you can pick up and call, if they have a major outage that outage is affecting 1000s of different customers and you one of those thousands really means nothing to them, right? Whereas a cloud service provider, generally speaking, has a very tight one-on-one relationship with both from an engineering perspective, right. With their tenants, but also at a higher managerial level. So they create those relationships and those relationships often drive these things. It's not always financial, there is a financial component to it, but very often it's the relationship, have they got somebody that they can talk to? If they getting many different solutions, can they get all those solutions from one provider? And if they can, it's much easier for them to manage from a... >> And I think so does that manage service... There's also a lot of things that despite their breadth and portfolio that the cloud service providers don't support, you can't do Oracle rack in the cloud, right? But you can in a service provider. >> Exactly. >> And Oracle, look you can negotiate with Oracle, so you can get similar pricing AWS, but this price is two x. They're either on-prem or in Oracle. So I could take my Oracle instance, stick it into a managed service provider or cloud service provider, do whatever I need to, and there are I'm sure 1000s of configurations like that, that aren't necessarily identically supported, security edicts that aren't necessarily exactly the same, so many specials that managed service say welcome to your point. AWS is as long as it's black, it's good. >> Yeah, exactly. And that's the thing, right? Those cloud service providers are doing exactly that. They have Oracle racks in there, they have all sorts of those solutions that are there in their data centers. And proximity is also an issue, right? Very often the people who are using those systems need their ancillary things to be close by, they can't be 10s or 20s or 30 milliseconds away, they need to be sub millisecond connectivity. And those are the areas where the cloud service providers really shine, they can offer those solutions that really enable their tenants to get what they want at the end of the day. Again to your point, you can negotiate with Oracle, but these cloud service providers do it day in and day out. Who wants their business? >> Who wants to do that with Oracle anyway, their lawyers are smarter than yours. Veeam, what are you doing with Veeam, in resilient architectures and cyber recovery? >> Yeah, we are a sponsor here at the event and Veeam is a great partner with VMware and we're great partner to them. A lot of cloud service providers actually use Veeam as their primary backup solution for their tenants, right. VMware Cloud Director that I was talking about just now, the thing that gives you a view of everything over the top, Veeam was actually one of the very first vendors to integrate with VCD. And you can use your Veeam environment directly from the screen, you right click, and you say do a backup and that's as easy as that from a Veeam perspective. So we have a lot of integrations with Veeam. We help the cloud service providers, ransomware is a big talking thing around this event, but all over the place, right? So a lot of the solutions that Veeam brings to the party, these cloud service providers are also deploying into their environments to help with ransomware. They have so many solutions that help those cloud service providers provide a holistic solution. >> Well, Veeam was basically founded saying, Hey, we're going to better our business on VMware. I first saw Veeam at a V mug, I think in Boston, and I was like, who is Veeam? VMware is that their product? It was just so you guys have had a long relationship, even though initially VMware was probably saying the same thing, who the heck are these guys? Well, how do you like them now? Sean, thanks so much for... >> Thank you. It's been great to be here. Appreciate it. Thank you for watching. Keep it right there. We'll be back shortly. We'll get a couple more segments left. Dave and I are going to wrap up later in the day, you watching The Cube at VeeamON 2022, be right back. (upbeat music)

Dante Orsini, Justin Giardina, and Brett Diamond | VeeamON 2022


 

(pleasant music) >> We're back at Veeamon 2022. We're here at the Aria hotel in Las Vegas. This is theCube's continuous coverage. We're in day two. Welcome to the CXO session. We have CEO, CTO, CSO, chief strategy officer. Brett Diamond is the CEO, Justin Giardina is the CTO, and Dante Orsini is the chief strategy officer for 11:11 Systems recently named, I guess today, the impact cloud service provider of the year. Congratulations, guys. Welcome to theCube. Welcome back to theCube. Great to see you again. >> Thank you. >> Great. >> Likewise. >> Thanks for having us. Okay, Brett, let's start with you. Give us the overview of 11:11, your focus area, talk about the Island acquisition, what that's all about, give us the setup. >> Yeah, so we started 11:11, really, with a focus on taking the three core pillars of our business, which are cloud, connectivity, and security, bring them together into one platform, allowing a much easier way for our customers and our partners to procure those three solution sets through a single company and really focus on the three main drivers of the business, which, you know, have a litany of other services associated with them under each platform. >> Okay, so Justin, cloud connectivity and security, they all dramatically changed in March of 2020. Everybody had to go to the cloud, had to rethink the network, had to secure remote workers. So what did you see, from a CTO's perspective, what changed and how did 11:11 respond? >> Sure, so early on, when we built our cloud, even back into 2008, we really focused on enterprise grade features, one of which being very flexible in the networking. So we found early on was that we would be able to architect solutions for customers that were dipping their toe in the cloud and set ourselves apart from some of the vendors at the time. So if you fast forward from 2008 until today, we still see that as a main component for IaaS and DRaaS and the ability to start taking into some of the things Brett talked about, where customers may need a point to point circuit to offload data connectivity to us, or develop SD-WAN and multi-cloud solutions to connect to their resources in the cloud. In my opinion, it's just the natural progression of what we set out to do in 2008. And to couple that with the security, if you think about what that opens up from a security landscape, now you have multiple clouds, you have different ingress and egress points, you have different people accessing workloads in each one of these clouds, so the idea or our idea is that we can layer a comprehensive security solution over this new multi-cloud networking world and then provide visibility and manageability to our customer base. >> So what does that mean specifically for your customers? Because, I mean, we saw obviously a rapid move toward end point, cloud security, identity access. You know, people really started rethinking that as opposed to trying to just, you know, build a moat around the castle. >> Right. >> What does that mean for your customer? You take care of all that? You partner with whomever you need to partner in the ecosystem and then you provide the managed service? How does that work? >> Right. It does and that's a great analogy. You know, we have a picture of a hamburger in our office, exploded with all the components and they say, a good security policy has all the pieces and it's really synonymous with what you said. So to answer your question, yes. We have all that baked in the platform. We can offer managed services around it, but we also give the consumer the ability to access that data, whether it's a UI or API. >> So Dante, I know you talked to a lot of customers. All you do is watch the stock market go like this and like that and you say, okay, the pandemic drove all these, but when you talk to CISOs and customers, a lot of things are changing permanently. First of all, they were forced to march to digital when previously, they were like, eh, we'll get there. I mean, a lot of customers were. Let's face it. I mean, some were serious about it, but many weren't. Now, if you're not a digital business, you're out of business. What have you seen when you talk to customers in terms of the permanence of some of these changes? What are they telling you? >> Well, I think, you know, we go through this ourselves, right? The business continues to grow. You've got tons of people that are working remotely and they are going to continue to work remotely, right? As much as we'd like to offer up hybrid workspace and things like that, some folks are like, hey, I've worked it out. I'm working out great from home, right? And also, I think what Justin was saying also is, as we've seen time go on, that operating environment has gotten much more complex. You've got stuff in the data center, stuff in somebody's, you know, endpoint, you've got various different public clouds, different SAS services, right? That's why it's been phenomenal to work with Veeam because we can protect that data regardless of where it exists. But when you start to look at some of the managed security services that we're talking about, we're helping those CSOs, you know, get better visibility, better control, and take proactive action against the infrastructure when we look at threat mitigation and how to actually respond when something does happen, right? And I think that's the key because there's no shortage of great security vendors, right? But how do you tie it all together into a single solution, right, with a vendor that you can actually partner with to help secure the environment while you go focus on the things that are more strategic to the business? >> I was talking to Jim Mercer at Red Hat Summit last week. He's an IDC analyst and we did a survey, I think it was last summer, and we asked customers to your point about, there's no shortage of security tools. How do you want to buy your security? And, you know, do you want, you know, best to breed bespoke tools and you sort of put it together or do you kind of want your platform provider to do it? Now surprisingly, they said platform provider. The problem is, that's aspirational for a lot of platform providers, so they got to look to a managed service provider. So Brett, talk about the Island acquisition, what Green Cloud is, how that all fits together. >> So we acquired Island and Green Cloud last year and the reality is, the people at both of those companies and the technology is what drove us to making those acquisitions. They were the foundational pieces to 11:11. Obviously, the things that Justin has been able to create from an automation and innovation perspective at the company is transforming this business in a litany of different ways, as well. So, those two acquisitions allow us at this point to take a cloud environment on a geographic footprint, not only throughout the US but globally, have a security product that was given to us from the Green Cloud acquisition of Cascade, and add on connectivity to allow us to have all three platforms in one, all three pillars in one. >> So I like 11:11. 11:11 is near and dear to my heart. So where'd the name come from? >> Everybody asked me this question, I think, five times a day. So growing up as a kid, everyone in my family would always say 11:11 make a wish whenever you'd see it on the clock. And during COVID, we were coming up with a new name for the business. My daughter looked at the microwave, said, dad, it's 11:11, make a wish. The reality was though, I had no idea why I'd been doing it for all that time and when you look up kind of the background origination, derivation of the word, it means the time of day when everything's in line and when things are complex, especially with running all the different businesses that we have, aligning them so that they're working together, it seemed like the perfect thing >> So when I had the big corner office at IDC, I had my staff meetings at 11:11. >> Yep. >> Because the universe was aligned and then the other thing was, nobody could forget the time. So they gave me 11 minutes to be there, so they were never late. >> And now you'll see it all the time, even when you don't want to. (chuckles) >> So Justin, we've been talking a lot about ransomware and not just backup, but recovery. My friend, Fred Moore, who, you know, coined the phrase backup is one thing, recovery is everything, and recovery time, network speeds and the like are critical, especially when you're thinking cloud. How are you architecting recovery for your clients? Maybe you could dig into that a little bit. >> Sure. So it's really a multitude of things. You know, you mention ransomware. Seeing the ransomware landscape evolve over time, especially in our business with backup NDR, is very singular, you know, people protecting against host nodes. Now we're seeing ransomware be able to get into an environment, land and expand, actually delete backups, target backup vendors. So the ransomware point, I guess, trying to battle that is a multi-step process, right? You need to think about how data flows into the organization from a security perspective, from a networking perspective, you need to think about how your workloads are protected, and then when you think about backups, I know we're at Veeamon now talking about Veeam, there's a multitude of ways to protect that data, whether it's retention, whether it's immutability, air gapping data. So, while I know we focus a lot sometimes on protecting data, it's really that hamburger analogy where the sum of the parts make up the protection. >> So how do you provide services? I mean, do you say, okay, do you want immutability? There's a line item for that. You want low RPO, fast RTO? How does that all work as a customer? What am I buying from you? Is it just a managed service? We'll take care of everything, platinum, gold, silver, or is it? >> If you don't mind, so I'm glad you asked that question because this is something that's very unique about us. Years ago, his team actually built the IP because we were scaling at such an incredible rate globally through all our joint partners with Veeam that, how do we take all the intelligence that we have and his team and all of our solution architects and scale it? So they actually developed a tool called Catalyst, and it's a pre-sales tool. It's an application. You download it, you install it. It basically takes a snapshot of your environment. You start to manipulate the data. What are you trying to do, Dave? Are you trying to protect that data? Are you backing up to us? Are you trying to replicate it for DR purposes? You know, what are you doing for production, or maybe it's a migration? It analyzes the network. It analyzes all your infrastructure. It helps the SEs know immediately if we're a feasible solution based on what you are trying to do. So, nobody in the space is doing this and that's been a huge key to our growth because the channel community, as well as the customer, they're working with real data. So we can get past all the garbage, you get right to what's important for them for the outcome. >> Yeah, that's huge. Who do you guys sell to? Is it more mid-size businesses that maybe don't have the large teams? Is it larger enterprises who want to compliment to their business? Is it both? >> Well, I would say with the two acquisitions that we made to go to market sales strategies and the clientele were very different, when you look at Green Cloud, they're selling predominantly wholesale through MSPs and those MSPs are mostly selling to SMBs, right? So we covered that SMB market for the most part through our acquisition of Green Cloud. Island, on the other hand, was more focused on selling direct, inbound, through VARs through the channel, mid-enterprise, big enterprise. So really, those two acquisitions outside of the IP that we got from the systems, we have every single go to market sales strategy and we're aligned from SMB all the way up to the Fortune 500. >> I heard a stat a couple months ago that less than 50% of enterprises have a SAQ. That blew me away. And, you know, even small businesses need one. They may not be able to afford, but there's certainly a medium size or a larger business should have some kind of SAQ. Does that stat jive with what you're seeing in the marketplace? >> A hundred percent. >> If that's true, the need for a managed service like this, it's going to explode. It is exploding, I mean. >> Yeah, I mean, a hundred percent, right? There is zero unemployment in the cyberspace, right? Just North America alone, there's about a million or so folks in that space and right now you've got about 600,000 open recs just in North America, right? So earlier, we talked about no shortage of tools, right? But the shortage of headcount is a significant challenge, big time, right? Most importantly, the people that you do have on staff, they've got alert fatigue from the tools that they do have. That's why you're seeing this massive surgence in the managed security services provider. >> Lack of talent is number one challenge for CISOs. That's what they'll tell you and there's no end in sight to that. And it's, you know, another tool and it's amazing 'cause you see security companies popping up all the time. I mean, billion dollar valuations, I mean, Lacework did a billion dollar raise. And so, there's no shortage of funding. Now, maybe that'll change, you know, with the market but I wanted to turn our attention to the keynotes this morning. You guys got some serious love up on stage. There was a demo. It was a pretty cool demo, fast recovery, very tight RPO, as I recall. It was, I think, four minutes of, of data loss? Is that right? Is that the right stat? I was happy it wasn't zero data loss 'cause there's really, you know, no such thing, but so you got to feel good about that. Tell us about how that all came about, your relationship with Veeam. Who wants to take it? >> Sure, I can take a stab at it. So two of the things that I'm most excited about, at least with this Veeamon, is our team was able to work with Veeam on that demo, and what that demo was showing was some CDP based features for cloud providers. So we're really happy to see that and the reason why we're happy to see that is that with the Veeam platform, it's now given the customers the ability to do things like snapshot replication, CDP replication, on-prem backup, cloud backup, immutability air gap, the list goes on and on. And in our opinion, having a singular software vendor that can provide all that, you know, with a cloud provider on-prem or not is really like, the icing on the cake. So for us, it's very exciting to see that, and then also coupled with a lot of the innovation that's Veeam's doing in the SAS space, right? So again, having that umbrella product that can cover all those use cases. >> I'll tell you, that was a very cool demo. If you can get a YouTube of that demo, I'll make sure we put it in the show notes of this video or maybe pop it into one of the blogs that we write about it. So, how do you guys feel? I mean, this is a new chapter for you. Very cool, with a couple of acquisitions that are now the main spring of your strategy, so the first Veeamon in a couple years. So what's the vibe been like for you? What's the nighttime activity, the customer interaction? I know you guys are running a lot of the backend demos, so you're everywhere. What's the vibe like at Veeamon and how does it feel to be back? >> I'll give that one to Dante as far as the vibes, so far. >> Yeah, yeah, you got a lot of experience. >> Yeah, let me loose on this one, Dave. I'm like, so excited about this, right? It's been far too long to get face to face again and Veeam always does it right. And I think that for years, we've been back ending like, all the hands on lab infrastructure here, but forget about that. I think the part that's really exciting is getting face to face with such a great team, right? We have phenomenal architects that we work with at Veeam day in and day out. They put up with us, pushing them, pushing them, pushing them and together, we've been able to create a lot of magic together, right? But I think you can't replace the human interaction that we've all been starving for, for the last two years. But the vibe's always fantastic at Veeam. If you're going to be around tonight, I'll be looking forward to enjoying some of that Veeam love with you at the after party. >> Yeah, well, famous after parties. We'll see if that culture continues. I have a feeling it will. Brett, where do you want to take 11:11? New phase in all of your careers. You got a great crew out here, it looks like. I love that you're all out and, make some noise here, people. Let's hear it! (audience cheering) You see, this is the biggest audience we've had all week. Where do you want to take 11:11? >> I think, you know, if you look at what we've done so far in the short six months since the acquisitions of Green Cloud and Island, obviously the integration is a key piece. We're going to be laser focused on growing organically across those three pillars. We've got to put more capital and resources into the incredible IP, like I said earlier, that Justin and his team have created on those front ends, the user experience. But, you know, we made two large acquisitions, obviously M and A is a key piece for us. We're going to be diligent and we're probably going to be very aggressive on that front as well, to be able to grow this business into the global leader of cloud connectivity and security. And I think we've really hit a void in the industry that's been looking for this for a very long time and we want to be the first ones to be able to collaborate and combine those three into one. >> When the cloud started to hit the steep part of the S-curve, kind of early part of last decade, people thought, oh wow, these managed service providers are toast. The exact opposite happened. It created such a tailwind and need for consistent services and integration and managed services. We've seen it all across the stacks. So guys, wish you best of luck. Congratulations on the acquisitions, >> Thank you. >> And hope to have you back soon. >> Absolutely, thanks for having us. >> All right, keep it right there everybody. Dave Vellante for theCube's coverage of Veeamon 2022. We'll be right back after this short break. (pleasant music)

Michael Cade, Veeam | VeeamON 2022


 

(calm music) >> Hi everybody. We're here at VeeamON 2022. This is day two of the CUBE's continuous coverage. I'm Dave Vellante. My co-host is Dave Nicholson. A ton of energy. The keynotes, day two keynotes are all about products at Veeam. Veeam, the color of green, same color as money. And so, and it flows in this ecosystem. I'll tell you right now, Michael Cade is here. He's the senior technologist for product strategy at Veeam. Michael, fresh off the keynotes. >> Yeah, yeah. >> Welcome. Danny Allen's keynote was fantastic. I mean, that story he told blew me away. I can't wait to have him back. Stay tuned for that one. But we're going to talk about protecting containers, Kasten. You guys got announcements of Kasten by Veeam, you call it K10 version five, I think? >> Yeah. So just rolled into 5.0 release this week. Now, it's a bit different to what we see from a VBR release cycle kind of thing, cause we're constantly working on a two week sprint cycle. So as much as 5.0's been launched and announced, we're going to see that trickling out over the next couple of months until we get round to Cube (indistinct) and we do all of this again, right? >> So let's back up. I first bumped into Kasten, gosh, it was several years ago at VeeamON. Like, wow this is a really interesting company. I had deep conversations with them. They had a sheer, sheer cat grin, like something was going on and okay finally you acquire them, but go back a little bit of history. Like why the need for this? Containers used to be ephemeral. You know, you didn't have to persist them. That changed, but you guys are way ahead of that trend. Talk a little bit more about the history there and then we'll get into current day. >> Yeah, I think the need for stateful workloads within Kubernetes is absolutely grown. I think we just saw 1.24 of Kubernetes get released last week or a couple of weeks ago now. And really the focus there, you can see, at least three of the big ticket items in that release are focused around storage and data. So it just encourages that the community is wanting to put these data services within that. But it's also common, right? It's great to think about a stateless... If you've got stateless application but even a web server's got some state, right? There's always going to be some data associated to an application. And if there isn't then like, great but that doesn't really work- >> You're right. Where'd they click, where'd they go? I mean little things like that, right? >> Yeah. Yeah, exactly. So one of the things that we are seeing from that is like obviously the requirement to back up and put in a lot of data services in there, and taking full like exposure of the Kubernetes ecosystem, HA, and very tiny containers versus these large like virtual machines that we've always had the story at Veeam around the portability and being able to move them left, right, here, there, and everywhere. But from a K10 point of view, the ability to not only protect them, but also move those applications or move that data wherever they need to be. >> Okay. So, and Kubernetes of course has evolved. I mean the early days of Kubernetes, they kept it simple, kind of like Veeam actually. Right? >> Yeah. >> And then, you know, even though Mesosphere and even Docker Swarm, they were trying to do more sophisticated cluster management. Kubernetes has now got projects getting much more complicated. So more complicated workloads mean more data, more critical data means more protection. Okay, so you acquire Kasten, we know that's a small part of your business today but it's going to be growing. We know this cause everybody's developing applications. So what's different about protecting containers? Danny talks about modern data protection. Okay, when I first heard that, I'm like, eh, nice tagline, but then he peel the onion. He explains how in virtualization, you went from agents to backing up of VMware instance, a virtual instance. What's different about containers? What constitutes modern data protection for containers? >> Yeah, so I think the story that Danny tells as well, is so when we had our physical agents and virtualization came along and a lot of... And this is really where Veeam was born, right, we went into the virtualization API, the VMware API, and we started leveraging that to be more storage efficient. The admin overhead around those agents weren't there then, we could just back up using the API. Whereas obviously a lot of our competition would use agents still and put that resource overhead on top of that. So that's where Veeam initially got the kickstart in that world. I think it's very similar to when it comes to Kubernetes because K10 is deployed within the Kubernetes cluster and it leverages the Kubernetes API to pull out that data in a more efficient way. You could use image based backups or traditional NAS based backups to protect some of the data, and backup's kind of the... It's only one of the ticks in the boxes, right? You have to be able to restore and know what that data is. >> But wait, your competitors aren't as fat, dumb and happy today as they were back then, right? So it can't... They use the same APIs and- >> Yeah. >> So what makes you guys different? >> So I think that's testament to the Kubernetes and the community behind that and things like the CSI driver, which enables the storage vendors to take that CSI abstraction layer and then integrate their storage components, their snapshot technologies, and other efficiency models in there, and be able to leverage that as part of a universal data protection API. So really that's one tick in the box and you're absolutely right, there's open source tools that can do exactly what we're doing to a degree on that backup and recovery. Where it gets really interesting is the mobility of data and how we're protecting that. Because as much as stateful workloads are seen within the Kubernetes environments now, they're also seen outside. So things like Amazon RDS, but the front end lives in Kubernetes going to that stateless point. But being able to protect the whole application and being very application aware means that we can capture everything and restore wherever we want that to go as well. Like, so the demo that I just did was actually a Postgres database in AWS, and us being able to clone or migrate that out into an EKS cluster as a staple set. So again, we're not leveraging RDS at that point, but it gives us the freedom of movement of that data. >> Yeah, I want to talk about that, what you actually demoed. One of the interesting things, we were talking earlier, I didn't see any CLI when you were going through the integration of K10 V5 and V12. >> Yeah. >> That was very interesting, but I'm more skeptical of this concept, of the single pane of glass and how useful that is. Who is this integration targeting? Are you targeting the sort of traditional Veeam user who is now adding as a responsibility, the management of protecting these Kubernetes environments? Or are you at the same time targeting the current owners of those environments? Cause I know you talk about shift left and- >> Yeah. >> You know, nobody needs Kubernetes if you only have one container and one thing you're doing. So at some point it's all about automation, it's about blueprints, it's about getting those things in early. So you get up, you talk about this integration, who cares about that kind of integration? >> Yeah, so I think it's a bit of both, right? So we're definitely focused around the DevOps focused engineer. Let's just call it that. And under an umbrella, the cloud engineer that's looking after Kubernetes, from an application delivery perspective. But I think more and more as we get further up the mountain, CIS admin, obviously who we speak to the tech decision makers, the solutions architects systems engineers, they're going to inherit and be that platform operator around the Kubernetes clusters. And they're probably going to land with the requirement around data management as well. So the specific VBR centralized management is very much for the backup admin, the infrastructure admin or the cloud based engineer that's looking after the Kubernetes cluster and the data within that. Still we speak to app developers who are conscious of what their database looks like, because that's an external data service. And the biggest question that we have or the biggest conversation we have with them is that the source code, the GitHub or the source repository, that's fine, that will get your... That'll get some of the way back up and running, but when it comes to a Postgres database or some sort of data service, oh, that's out of the CI/CD pipeline. So it's whether they're interested in that or whether that gets farmed out into another pre-operations, the traditional operations team. >> So I want to unpack your press release a little bit. It's full of all the acronyms, so maybe you can help us- >> Sure. >> Cipher. You got security everywhere enhance platform hardening, including KMS. That's key- >> Yeah, key management service, yeah. >> System, okay. With AWS, KMS and HashiCorp vault. Awesome, love to see HashiCorp company. >> Yeah. >> RBAC objects in UI dashboards, ransomware attacks, AWS S3. So anyway, security everywhere. What do you mean by that? >> So I think traditionally at Veeam, and continue that, right? From a security perspective, if you think about the failure scenario and ransomware's, the hot topic, right, when it comes to security, but we can think about security as, if we think about that as the bang, right, the bang is something bad's happen, fire, flood, blood, type stuff. And we tend to be that right hand side of that, we tend to be the remediation. We're definitely the one, the last line of defense to get stuff back when something really bad happens. And I think what we've done from a K10 point of view, is not only enhance that, so with the likes of being able to... We're not going to reinvent the wheel, let's use the services that HashiCorp have done from a HashiCorp vault point of view and integrate from a key management system. But then also things like S3 or ransomware prevention. So I want to know if something bad's happened and Kasten actually did something more generic from a Veeam ONE perspective, but one of the pieces that we've seen since we've then started to send our backups to an immutable object storage, is let's be more of that left as well and start looking at the preventative tasks that we can help with. Now, we're not going to be a security company, but you heard all the way through Danny's like keynote, and probably when he is been on here, is that it's always, we're always mindful of that security focus. >> On that point, what was being looked for? A spike in CPU utilization that would be associated with encryption? >> Yeah, exactly that. >> Is that what was being looked- >> That could be... Yeah, exactly that. So that could be from a virtual machine point of view but from a K10, and it specifically is that we're going to look at the S3 bucket or the object storage, we're going to see if there's a rate of change that's out of the normal. It's an abnormal rate. And then with that, we can say, okay, that doesn't look right, alert us through observability tools, again, around the cloud native ecosystem, Prometheus Grafana. And then we're going to get insight into that before the bang happens, hopefully before the bang. >> So that's an interesting when we talk about adjacencies and moving into this area of security- >> We're talking to Zeus about that too. >> Exactly. That's that sort of creep where you can actually add value. It's interesting. >> So, okay. So we talked about shift left, get that, and then expanded ecosystem, industry leading technologies. By the way, one of them is the Red Hat Marketplace. And I think, I heard Anton's... Anton was amazing. He is the head of product management at Veeam. Is been to every VeeamON. He's got family in Ukraine. He's based in Switzerland. >> Yeah. >> But he chose not to come here because he's obviously supporting, you know, the carnage that's going on in Ukraine. But anyway, I think he said the Red Hat team is actually in Ukraine developing, you know, while the bombs are dropping. That's amazing. But anyway, back to our interview here, expanded ecosystem, Red Hat, SUSE with Rancher, they've got some momentum. vSphere with Tanzu, they're in the game. Talk about that ecosystem and its importance. >> Yeah, and I think, and it goes back to your point around the CLI, right? Is that it feels like the next stage of Kubernetes is going to be very much focused towards the operator or the operations team. The CIS admin of today is going to have to look after that. And at the moment it's all very command line, it's all CLI driven. And I think the marketplace is OpenShift, being our biggest foothold around our customer base, is definitely around OpenShift. But things like, obviously we are a longstanding alliance partner with VMware as well. So their Tanzu operations actually there's support for TKGS, so vSphere Tanzu grid services is another part of the big release of 5.0. But all three of those and the common marketplace gives us a UI, gives us a way of being able to see and visualize that rather than having to go and hunt down the commands and get our information through some- >> Oh, some people are going to be unhappy about that. >> Yeah. >> But I contend the human eye has evolved to see in color for a very good reason. So I want to see things in red, yellow, and green at times. >> There you go, yeah. >> So when we hear a company like Veeam talk about, look we have no platform agenda, we don't care which cloud it's in. We don't care if it's on-prem or Google Azure, AWS. We had Wasabi on, we have... Great, they got an S3 compatible, you know, target, and others as well. When we hear them, companies like you, talk about that consistent experience, single pane of glass that you're skeptical of, maybe cause it's technically challenging, one of the things, we call it super cloud, right, that's come up. Danny and I were riffing on that the other day and we'll do that more this afternoon. But it brings up something that we were talking about with Zeus, Dave, which is the edge, right? And it seems like Kubernetes, and we think about OpenShift. >> Yeah. >> We were there last week at Red Hat Summit. It's like 50% of the conversation, if not more, was the edge. Right, and really true edge, worst cases, use cases. Two weeks ago we were at Dell Tech, there was a lot of edge talk, but it was retail stores, like Lowe's. Okay, that's kind of near edge, but the far edge, we're talking space, right? So seems like Kubernetes fits there and OpenShift, you know, particularly, as well as some of the others that we mentioned. What about edge? How much of what you're doing with container data protection do you see as informing you about the edge opportunity? Are you seeing any patterns there? Nobody's really talking about it in data protection yet. >> So yeah, large scale numbers of these very small clusters that are out there on farms or in wind turbines, and that is definitely something that is being spoken about. There's not much mention actually in this 5.0 release because we actually support things like K3s,(indistinct), that all came in 4.5, but I think, to your first point as well, David, is that, look, we don't really care what that Kubernetes distribution is. So you've got K3s lightweight Kubernetes distribution, we support it, because it uses the same native Kubernetes APIs, and we get deployed inside of that. I think where we've got these large scale and large numbers of edge deployments of Kubernetes and that you require potentially some data management down there, and they might want to send everything into a centralized location or a more centralized location than a farm shed out in the country. I think we're going to see a big number of that. But then we also have our multi cluster dashboard that gives us the ability to centralize all of the control plane. So we don't have to go into each individual K10 deployment to manage those policies. We can have one big centralized management multi cluster dashboard, and we can set global policies there. So if you're running a database and maybe it's the same one across all of your different edge locations, where you could just set one policy to say I want to protect that data on an hourly basis, a daily basis, whatever that needs to be, rather than having to go into each individual one. >> And then send it back to that central repository. So that's the model that you see, you don't see the opportunity, at least at this point in time, of actually persisting it at the edge? >> So I think it depends. I think we see both, but again, that's the footprint. And maybe like you mentioned about up in space having a Kubernetes cluster up there. You don't really want to be sending up a NAS device or a storage device, right, to have to sit alongside it. So it's probably, but then equally, what's the art of the possible to get that back down to our planet, like as part of a consistent copy of data? >> Or even a farm or other remote locations. The question is, I mean, EVs, you know, we believe there's going to be tons of data, we just don't.. You think about Tesla as a use case, they don't persist a ton of their data. Maybe if a deer runs across, you know, the front of the car, oh, persist that, send that back to the cloud. >> I don't want anyone knowing my Tesla data. I'll tell you that right now. (all laughing) >> Well, there you go, that one too. All right, well, that's future discussion, we're still trying to squint through those patterns. I got so many questions for you, Michael, but we got to go. Thanks so much for coming to theCUBE. >> Always. >> Great job on the keynote today and good luck. >> Thank you. Thanks for having me. >> All right, keep it right there. We got a ton of product talk today. As I said, Danny Allan's coming back, we got the ecosystem coming, a bunch of the cloud providers. We have, well, iland was up on stage. They were just recently acquired by 11:11 Systems. They were an example today of a cloud service provider. We're going to unpack it all here on theCUBE at VeeamON 2022 from Las Vegas at the Aria. Keep it right there. (calm music)

SUMMARY :

Veeam, the color of green, I mean, that story he told blew me away. and we do all of this again, right? about the history there So it just encourages that the community I mean little things like that, right? So one of the things that I mean the early days of Kubernetes, but it's going to be growing. and it leverages the Kubernetes API So it can't... and be able to leverage that One of the interesting things, of the single pane of glass So you get up, you talk And the biggest question that we have It's full of all the acronyms, You got security everywhere With AWS, KMS and HashiCorp vault. So anyway, security everywhere. and ransomware's, the hot topic, right, or the object storage, That's that sort of creep where He is the head of product said the Red Hat team and the common marketplace gives us a UI, to be unhappy about that. But I contend the human eye on that the other day It's like 50% of the and maybe it's the same one So that's the model that you see, but again, that's the footprint. that back to the cloud. I'll tell you that right now. Thanks so much for coming to theCUBE. on the keynote today and good luck. Thanks for having me. a bunch of the cloud providers.

Breaking Analysis: Are Cyber Stocks Oversold or Still too Pricey?


 

>> From theCUBE Studios in Palo Alto in Boston, bringing you data driven insights from theCUBE and ETR. This is Breaking Analysis with Dave Vellante. >> Cybersecurity stocks have been sending mixed signals as of late, mostly negative like much of tech, but some such as Palo Alto Networks, despite a tough go of it recently have held up better than most tech names. Others like CrowdStrike, had been out performing Broader Tech in March, but then flipped in May. Okta's performance was pretty much tracking along with CrowdStrike for most of the past several months, a little bit below, but then the Okta hack changed the trajectory of that name. Zscaler has crossed the critical billion dollar ARR revenue milestone, and now sees a path to five billion dollars in revenue, but the company stock fell sharply after its last earnings report and has been on a down trend since last November. Meanwhile, CyberArk's recent beat and raise, was encouraging and the stock acted well after its last report. Security remains the number one initiative priority amongst IT organizations and the spending momentum for many high flying cyber names remain strong. So what gives in cyber security? Hello, and welcome to this week's Wikibon CUBE insights powered by ETR. In this breaking analysis, we focus on security and will update you on the latest data from ETR to try to make sense out of the market and read into what this all means in both the near and long term, for some of our favorite names in cyber. First, the news. There's always something happening in security news cycles. The big recent news is new President Rodrigo Chavez declared a national emergency in Costa Rica due to the preponderance of Russian cyber attacks on the country's critical infrastructure. Such measures are normally reserved for natural disasters like earthquakes, but this move speaks to the nature of today's cyber threats. Of no surprise is modern superpower warfare even for a depleted power like Russia almost certainly involves cyber warfare as we continue to see in Ukraine. Privately held Arctic Wolf Networks hired Dustin Williams as its new CFO. Williams has taken three companies to IPO, including Nutanix in 2016, a very successful IPO for that company. Whether AWN chooses to pull the trigger this year or will wait until markets are less choppy or obviously remains to be seen. But it's a pretty clear sign the company is headed to IPO at some point. Now, big point of discussion this week at Red Hat Summit in Boston and the prior week at Dell technologies world was security. In the case of Red Hat, securing the digital supply chain was the main theme. And from Dell building, many security features into its storage arrays and cyber resilience services into its as a service offering called Apex. And we're seeing a trend where buyers want to reduce the number of bespoke tools they use if they, in fact can. Here's IDC's Jim Mercer, sharing data from a recent survey they conducted on the topic. Play the clip. >> Interestingly, we did a survey, I think around last August or something. And one of the questions was around where do you want your security, right? Where do you want to get your DevSecOps security from? Do you want to get it from individual vendors, right? Or do you want to get it from like your platforms that you're using and deploying changes in Kubernetes? >> Great question. What did they say? >> The majority of them, they're hoping they can get it built into the platform. That's really what they want-- >> Now, whether that's actually achievable is debatable because you have so much innovation and investment going on from the likes of startups and for instance, lace work or sneak and security companies that you see even trying to build platforms, you've got CrowdStrike, Okta, Zscaler and many others, trying to build security platforms and put it all under their umbrella. Now the last point will hit here is there was a lot of buzz in the news about Okta. The reaction to what was a relatively benign hack was pretty severe and probably overblown, but Okta's stock is paying the price of what is generally considered a blown communications plan versus a technical failure. Remember, identity is not an easy thing to rip and replace and Okta remains a best-of-breed player and leader in the space. So we're going to look at some ETR data later in this segment to try and make sense of the recent action in the market and certain names. Speaking of which let's take a look at how some of the names in cybersecurity have fared relative to some of the indices and relative indicators that we like to look at. Here's a Google finance comparison for a number of stocks and names in the bottom there you can see we plot the hack ETF which tracks security stocks. This is a year to date view. And so we don't show it here but the tech heavy NASDAQ is off around 26% year to date whereas the cyber ETF that we're showing is down 18%, okay. So cyber holding up a little bit better than broader tech as we've reported earlier, was actually much better and still seems to be a gap there, but the data are mixed. You can see Okta is way off relative to its peers. That's a combination of the breach that we talked about but also the run up in the stock since COVID. CrowdStrike was actually faring better but broke this month, we'll see how it's upcoming earnings announcements are received when it announces on June 2nd after the close. Palo Alto in the light blue has done better than most and until recently was holding up quite well. And of course, Sailpoint is another identity specialist, it is kind of off the charts here because it's going private with the acquisition by Thoma Bravo at nearly seven billion dollars. So you see some mixed signals in cyber these past several months and weeks. And so we're trying to understand what that all means. So let's take a look at the survey data and see how spending momentum is holding up. As we've reported IT spending forecast, at the macro level, they've come off their 8% highs from the end of the year, the ETRS December survey, but robust tech spending is still there. It's expected at nearly seven percent and this is amongst 1200 ETR respondents. Here's a picture from the ETR survey of the cybersecurity landscape. That y-axis that's net score or a measure of spending momentum and that horizontal access is overlap. We used to talk about it as a market share which is a measure of pervasiveness in the data set. That dotted red line at 40% indicates an elevated spending momentum level on the vertical axis and we filter the names and limited to only those with a hundred or more responses in the ETR survey. Then the pictures still pretty crowded as you can see. You got lots of companies above the red dotted line, including Microsoft which is up into the right, they're so far off the chart, it's just amazing. But also Palo Alto and Okta, Auth0, which of course is now owned by Okta, Zscaler, CyberArk is making moves. Sailpoint and Cloudflare, they're all above that magic 40% line. Now, you look at Cisco, it shows a very large presence in the horizontal axis in the data set. And it's got pretty respectable momentum and you see Splunk doing okay, no before and tenable just below that 40% line and a lot of names in the very respectable 20% zone. And we've included some legacy names just for context that fall below the zero percent line with a negative net score. And that means a larger proportion, that negative net score means a larger proportion of their customers in the survey are spending less than those that are spending more. Now, typically for these legacy names you're going to have a huge proportion of customers who have flat spending that kind of fat middle and that's why they sort of don't have that highly elevated score, but they're still viable as they get the recurring revenue each year. But the bottom line is that spending remains robust for some of the top names that we've talked about earlier despite their rocky stock performance. Now, let's filter this data a bit more to make it a little bit easier to read. So to do that, we take out Microsoft because they're just so dominant and we cherry pick some names to make the data more consumable and scannable. The other data point we've added is Okta's net score breakdown, the multicolored rows there, that row in the bottom right. Net score, it measures the percent of customers that are adding the platform new, that's the lime green, at 18% for Okta. The forest green is at 42%. That's the percent of customers in the survey that are spending six percent or more. The gray is flat spending. That's 32% for Okta, this past survey. The pink is customers that are spending less, that's three percent. They're spending six percent or worse in the survey, so only three percent for Okta. And the bright red at three percent is decommissioning the platform. You subtract the reds from the greens and you get a net score, well, into the 50s for Okta and you can see. We highlight Okta here because it's a name that we've been following for quite some time and customers have given us really solid feedback on the technology and up until the hack, they're affinity to Okta, but that seems to be continuing. We'll talk more about that. This recent breach to Okta has caused us to take a closer look. And you may recall, we reported with our ETR colleague, Eric Bradley. The breach was announced right in the middle of ETR collecting data in the last survey. And while we did see a noticeable downtick right after the announcement, the exposure of the hack and Okta's net score just after the breach was disclosed, you can see the combination of Okta and Auth0 remains very strong. I asked Eric Bradley this morning what he thought about Okta, and he pointed out that you can't evaluate this company on its price to earnings ratio. But it's forward sales multiple is now below 7X. And while attractive, these high flyers at some point, Eric says, they got to start making a profit. So you going to hold that thought, we'll come back to that. Now, another cut of the ETR data to look at our four star security names here. A while back we developed a methodology to try and cut through the noise of the crowded security sector using the ETR data to evaluate two key metrics; net score and shared N. Net score again is, spending momentum, the latter is an indicator of presence in the data set which is a proxy for market presence. Okay, we assigned those companies that cracked the top 10 in both net score and shared N, we give them four stars, okay, if they make the top 10. This chart here shows the April survey data for those companies with an N that's greater than, equal to a hundred responses. So again, we're filtering on those with a hundred or more responses. The table on the left that you see there, that's sorted by net score, okay. So we're sorting by spending momentum. And then the one on the right is sorted by shared N, so their presence in the data set. Seven companies hit the top 10 for both categories; Palo Alto Network, Splunk, CrowdStrike Okta, Proofpoint, Fortinet and Zscaler. Now, remember, take a look, Okta excludes Auth0, in this little methodology that we came up with. Auth0 didn't make the cuts but it hits the top 10 for net score. So if you add in Auth0's 112 N there that you see on the right. You add that into Okta, we put Okta in the number two spot in the survey on the right most table with the shared N of 354. Only Cisco has a higher presence in the data set. And you can see Cisco in the left lands just below that red dotted line. That's the top 10 in security. So if we were to combine Okta and Auth0 as one, Cisco would make the cut and earn four stars. Now, some other notables are CyberArk, which is just below the red line on the right most chart with an impressive 177 shared N. Again, if you combine Auth0 and Okta, CyberArk makes the four star grade because it's in the top 10 for net score on the left. And Sailpoint is another notable with a net score above 50% and it's got a shared N of 122, which is respectable. So despite the market's choppy waters, we're seeing some positive signs in the survey data for some of the more prominent names that we've been following for the last couple of years. So what does this mean for the markets going forward? As always, when we see these confusing signs we like to reach out to the network and one of the sharpest traders out there is Chip Simonton. We've quoted him before and we like to share some of his insights. And so we're going to highlight some of that here. So technically, almost every good tech stock is oversold. And as such, he suggested we might see a bounce here. We certainly are seeing that on this Friday, the 13th. But the right call tactically has been to sell into the rally these past several months, so we'll see what happens on Monday. The key issue with the name like Okta and some other momentum names like CrowdStrike and Zscaler is that when money comes back into tech, it's likely going to go to the FAANG stocks, the Facebook, Apple, Amazon, Netflix, Google, and of course, you put Microsoft in there as well. And we'll see about Amazon, by the way, it's kind of out of favor right now, as everyone's focused on the retail side of the business meanwhile it's cloud business is booming and that's where all the profit is. We think that should be the real focus for Amazon. But the point is, for these momentum names in cybersecurity that don't make money, they face real headwinds, as growth is slowing overall and interest rates rise, that makes the net present value of these investments much less attractive. We've talked about that before. But longer term, we agree with Chip Simonton that these are excellent companies and they will weather the storm and we think they're going to lead their respective markets. And in cyber, we would expect continued M&A activity, which could act as a booster shot in the arms of these names. Now in 2019, we saw the ETR data, it pointed to CrowdStrike, Zscaler, Okta and others in the security space. Some of those names that really looked to us like they were moving forward and the pandemic just created a surge in these names and admittedly they got out over their skis. But the data suggests that these leading companies have continued momentum and the potential for stay in power. Unlike the SolarWinds hack, it seems at this point anyway that Okta will recover in the market. For the reasons that we cited, investors, they might stay away for some time but longer term, there's a shift in CSO security strategies that appear to be permanent. They're really valuing cloud-based modern platforms, these platforms will likely continue to gain share and carry their momentum forward. Okay, that's it for now, thanks to Stephanie Chan, who helps with the background research and with social, Kristen Martin and Cheryl Knight help get the word out and do some great work as well.

Wrap with Stephanie Chan | Red Hat Summit 2022


 

(upbeat music) >> Welcome back to theCUBE. We're covering Red Hat Summit 2022. We're going to wrap up now, Dave Vellante, Paul Gillin. We want to introduce you to Stephanie Chan, who's our new correspondent. Stephanie, one of your first events, your very first CUBE event. So welcome. >> Thank you. >> Up from NYC. Smaller event, but intimate. You got a chance to meet some folks last night at some of the after parties. What are your overall impressions? What'd you learn this week? >> So this has been my first in-person event in over two years. And even though, like you said, is on the smaller scale, roughly around 1000 attendees, versus it's usual eight to 10,000 attendees. There's so much energy, and excitement, and openness in these events and sessions. Even before and after the sessions people have been mingling and socializing and hanging out. So, I think a lot of people appreciate these in-person events and are really excited to be here. >> Cool. So, you also sat in some of the keynotes, right? Pretty technical, right? Which is kind of new to sort of your genre, right? I mean, I know you got a financial background but, so what'd you think of the keynotes? What'd you think of the format, the theater in the round? Any impressions of that? >> So, I think there's three things that are really consistent in these Red Hat Summit keynotes. There's always a history lesson. There's always, you know, emphasis in the culture of openness. And, there's also inspirational stories about how people utilize open source. And I found a lot of those examples really compelling and interesting. For instance, people use open source in (indistinct), and even in space. So I really enjoyed, you know, learning about all these different people and stories. What about you guys? What do you think were the big takeaways and the best stories that came out of the keynotes? >> Paul, want to start? >> Clearly the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9 is a major rollout. They do that only about every three years. So that's a big deal to this audience. I think what they did in the area of security, with rolling out sigstore, which is a major new, I think an important new project that was sort of incubated at Red Hat. And they're trying to put in to create an open source ecosystem around that now. And the alliances. I'm usually not that much on partnerships, but the Accenture and the Microsoft partnerships do seem to be significant to the company. And, finally, the GM partnership which I think was maybe kind of the bombshell that they sort of rushed in at the last minute. But I think has the biggest potential impact on Red Hat and its partner ecosystem that is really going to anchor their edge architecture going forward. So I didn't see it so much on the product front, but the sense of Red Hat spreading its wings, and partnering with more companies, and seeing its itself as really the center of an ecosystem indicates that they are, you know, they're in a very solid position in their business. >> Yeah, and also like the pandemic has really forced us into this new normal, right? So customer demand is changing. There has been the shift to remote. There's always going to be a new normal according to Paul, and open source carries us through that. So how do you guys think Red Hat has helped its portfolio through this new normal and the shift? >> I mean, when you think of Red Hat, you think of Linux. I mean, that's where it all started. You think OpenShift which is the application development platforms. Linux is the OS. OpenShift is the application development platform for Kubernetes. And then of course, Ansible is the automation framework. And I agree with you, ecosystem is really the other piece of this. So, I mean, I think you take those three pieces and extend that into the open source community. There's a lot of innovation that's going around each of those, but ecosystems are the key. We heard from Stefanie Chiras, that fundamental, I mean, you can't do this without those gap fillers and those partnerships. And then another thing that's notable here is, you know, this was, I mean, IBM was just another brand, right? I mean, if anything it was probably a sub-brand, I mean, you didn't hear much about IBM. You certainly had no IBM presence, even though they're right across the street running Think. No Arvind present, no keynote from Arvind, no, you know, Big Blue washing. And so, I think that's a testament to Arvind himself. We heard that from Paul Cormier, he said, hey, this guy's been great, he's left us alone. And he's allowed us to continue innovating. It's good news. IBM has not polluted Red Hat. >> Yes, I think that the Red Hat was, I said at the opening, I think Red Hat is kind of the tail wagging the dog right now. And their position seems very solid in the market. Clearly the market has come to them in terms of their evangelism of open source. They've remained true to their business model. And I think that gives them credibility that, you know, a lot of other open source companies have lacked. They have stuck with the plan for over 20 years now and have really not changed it, and it's paying off. I think they're emerging as a company that you can trust to do business with. >> Now I want to throw in something else here. I thought the conversation with IDC analyst, Jim Mercer, was interesting when he said that they surveyed customers and they wanted to get the security from their platform vendor, versus having to buy these bespoke tools. And it makes a lot of sense to me. I don't think that's going to happen, right? Because you're going to have an identity specialist. You're going to have an endpoint specialist. You're going to have a threat detection specialist. And they're going to be best of breed, you know, Red Hat's never going to be all of those things. What they can do is partner with those companies through APIs, through open source integrations, they can add them in as part of the ecosystem and maybe be the steward of that. Maybe that's the answer. They're never going to be the best at all those different security disciplines. There's no way in the world, Red Hat, that's going to happen. But they could be the integration point. And that would be, that would be a simplifying layer to the equation. >> And I think it's smart. You know, they're not pretending to be an identity in access management or an anti-malware company, or even a zero trust company. They are sticking to their knitting, which is operating system and developers. Evangelizing DevSecOps, which is a good thing. And, that's what they're going to do. You know, you have to admire this company. It has never gotten outside of its swim lane. I think it's understood well really what it wants to be good at. And, you know, in the software business knowing what not to do is more important than knowing what to do. Is companies that fail are usually the ones that get overextended, this company has never overextended itself. >> What else do you want to know? >> And a term that kept popping up was multicloud, or otherwise known as metacloud. We know what the cloud is, but- >> Oh, supercloud, metacloud. >> Supercloud, yeah, here we go. We know what the cloud is but, what does metacloud mean to you guys? And why has it been so popular in these conversations? >> I'm going to boot this to Dave, because he's the expert on this. >> Well, expert or not, but I mean, again, we've coined this term supercloud. And the idea behind the supercloud or what Ashesh called metacloud, I like his name, cause it allows Web 3.0 to come into the equation. But the idea is that instead of building on each individual cloud and have compatibility with that cloud, you build a layer across clouds. So you do the hard work as a platform supplier to hide the underlying primitives and APIs from the end customer, or the end developer, they can then add value on top of that. And that abstraction layer spans on-prem, clouds, across clouds, ultimately out to the edge. And it's new, a new value layer that builds on top of the hyperscale infrastructure, or existing data center infrastructure, or emerging edge infrastructure. And the reason why that is important is because it's so damn complicated, number one. Number two, every company's becoming a software company, a technology company. They're bringing their services through digital transformation to their customers. And you've got to have a cloud to do that. You're not going to build your own data center. That's like Charles Wang says, not Charles Wang. (Paul laughing) Charles Phillips. We were just talking about CA. Charles Phillips. Friends don't let friends build data centers. So that supercloud concept, or what Ashesh calls metacloud, is this new layer that's going to be powered by ecosystems and platform companies. And I think it's real. I think it's- >> And OpenShift, OpenShift is a great, you know, key card for them or leverage for them because it is perhaps the best known Kubernetes platform. And you can see here they're really doubling down on adding features to OpenShift, security features, scalability. And they see it as potentially this metacloud, this supercloud abstraction layer. >> And what we said is, in order to have a supercloud you got to have a superpaz layer and OpenShift is that superpaz layer. >> So you had conversations with a lot of people within the past two days. Some people include companies, from Verizon, Intel, Accenture. Which conversation stood out to you the most? >> Which, I'm sorry. >> Which conversation stood out to you the most? (Paul sighs) >> The conversation with Stu Miniman was pretty interesting because we talked about culture. And really, he has a lot of credibility in that area because he's not a Red Hat. You know, he hasn't been a Red Hat forever, he's fairly new to the company. And got a sense from him that the culture there really is what they say it is. It's a culture of openness and that's, you know, that's as important as technology for a company's success. >> I mean, this was really good content. I mean, there were a lot, I mean Stefanie's awesome. Stefanie Chiras, we're talking about the ecosystem. Chris Wright, you know, digging into some of the CTO stuff. Ashesh, who coined metacloud, I love that. The whole in vehicle operating system conversation was great. The security discussion that we just had. You know, the conversations with Accenture were super thoughtful. Of course, Paul Cormier was a highlight. I think that one's going to be a well viewed interview, for sure. And, you know, I think that the customer conversations are great. Red Hat did a really good job of carrying the keynote conversations, which were abbreviated this year, to theCUBE. >> Right. >> I give 'em a lot of kudos for that. And because, theCUBE, it allows us to double click, go deeper, peel the onion a little bit, you know, all the buzz words, and cliches. But it's true. You get to clarify some of the things you heard, which were, you know, the keynotes were, were scripted, but tight. And so we had some good follow up questions. I thought it was super useful. I know I'm leaving somebody out, but- >> We're also able to interview representatives from Intel and Nvidia, which at a software conference you don't typically do. I mean, there's the assimilation, the combination of hardware and software. It's very clear that, and this came out in the keynote, that Red Hat sees hardware as matter. It matters. It's important again. And it's going to be a source of innovation in the future. That came through clearly. >> Yeah. The hardware matters theme, you know, the old days you would have an operating system and the hardware were intrinsically linked. MVS in the mainframe, VAX, VMS in the digital mini computers. DG had its own operating system. Wang had his own operating system. Prime with Prime OS. You remember these days? >> Oh my God. >> Right? (Paul laughs) And then of course Microsoft. >> And then x86, everything got abstracted. >> Right. >> Everything became x86 and now it's all atomizing again. >> Although WinTel, right? I mean, MS-DOS and Windows were intrinsically linked for many, many years with Intel x86. And it wasn't until, you know, well, and then, you know, Sun Solaris, but it wasn't until Linux kind of blew that apart. And the internet is built on the lamp stack. And of course, Linux is the fundamental foundation for Red Hat. So my point is, that the operating system and the hardware have always been very closely tied together. Whether it's security, or IO, or registries and memory management, everything controlled by the OS are very close to the hardware. And so that's why I think you've got an affinity in Red Hat to hardware. >> But Linux is breaking that bond, don't you think? >> Yes, but it still has to understand the underlying hardware. >> Right. >> You heard today, how taking advantage of Nvidia, and the AI capabilities. You're seeing that with ARM, you're seeing that with Intel. How you can optimize the operating system to take advantage of new generations of CPU, and NPU, and CPU, and PU, XPU, you know, across the board. >> Yep. >> Well, I really enjoyed this conference and it really stressed how important open source is to a lot of different industries. >> Great. Well, thanks for coming on. Paul, thank you. Great co-hosting with you. And thank you. >> Always, Dave. >> For watching theCUBE. We'll be on the road, next week we're at KubeCon in Valencia, Spain.

Kirsten Newcomer & Jim Mercer | Red Hat Summit 2022


 

(upbeat music) >> Welcome back. We're winding down theCUBE's coverage of Red Hat Summit 2022. We're here at the Seaport in Boston. It's been two days of a little different Red Hat Summit. We're used to eight, 9,000 people. It's much smaller event this year, fewer developers or actually in terms of the mix, a lot more suits this year, which is kind of interesting to see that evolution and a big virtual audience. And I love the way, the keynotes we've noticed are a lot tighter. They're pithy, on time, they're not keeping us in the hall for three hours. So we appreciate that kind of catering to the virtual audience. Dave Vellante here with my co-host, Paul Gillin. As to say things are winding down, there was an analyst event here today, that's ended, but luckily we have Jim Mercer here as a research director at IDC. He's going to share maybe some of the learnings from that event today and this event overall, we're going to talk about DevSecOps. And Kirsten Newcomer is director of security, product management and hybrid platforms at Red Hat. Folks, welcome. >> Thank you. >> Thank you. >> Great to see you. >> Great to be here. >> Security's everywhere, right? You and I have spoken about the supply chain hacks, we've done some sort of interesting work around that and reporting around that. I feel like SolarWinds created a new awareness. You see these moments, it's Stuxnet, or WannaCry and now is SolarWinds very insidious, but security, Red Hat, it's everywhere in your portfolio. Maybe talk about the strategy. >> Sure, absolutely. We feel strongly that it's really important that security be something that is managed in a holistic way present throughout the application stack, starting with the operating system and also throughout the life cycle, which is partly where DevSecOps comes in. So Red Hat has kind of had a long history here, right? Think SELinux and Red Hat Enterprise Linux for mandatory access control. That's been a key component of securing containers in a Kubernetes environment. SELinux has demonstrated the ability to prevent or mitigate container escapes to the file system. And we just have continued to work up the stack as we go, our acquisition of stack rocks a little over a year ago, now known as Red Hat Advanced Cluster Security, gives us the opportunity to really deliver on that DevSecOps component. So Kubernetes native security solution with the ability to both help shift security left for the developers by integrating in the supply chain, but also providing a SecOps perspective for the operations and the security team and feeding information between the two to really try and do that closed infinity loop and then an additional investment more recently in sigstore and some technologies. >> Interesting. >> Yeah, is interesting. >> Go ahead. >> But Shift Left, explain to people what you mean by Shift Left for people might not be familiar with that term. >> Fair enough. For many, many years, right, IT security has been something that's largely been part of an operations environment and not something that developers tended to need to be engaged in with the exception of say source code static analysis tools. We started to see vulnerability management tools get added, but even then they tend to come after the application has been built. And I even ran a few years ago, I ran into a customer who said my security team won't let me get this information early. So Shift Left is all about making sure that there are security gates in the app dev process and information provided to the developer as early as possible. In fact, even in the IDE, Red Hat code ready dependency analytics does that, so that the developers are part of the solution and don't have to wait and get their apps stalled just before it's ready to go into deployment. >> Thank you. You've also been advocating for supply chain security, software supply chain. First of all, explain what a software supply chain is and then, what is unique about the security needs of that environment? >> Sure. And the SolarWinds example, as Dave said, really kind of has raised awareness around this. So just like we use the term supply chain, most people given kind of what's been happening with the pandemic, they've started hearing that term a lot more than they used to, right? So there's a supply chain to get your groceries, to the grocery store, food to the grocery store. There's a supply chain for manufacturing, where do the parts come for the laptops that we're all using, right? And where do they get assembled? Software has a supply chain also, right? So for years and even more so now, developers have been including open source components into the applications they build. So some of the supplies for the applications, the components of those applications, they can come from anywhere in the world. They can come from a wide range of open source projects. Developers are adding their custom code to that. All of this needs to be built together, delivered together and so when we think about a supply chain and the SolarWinds hack, right, there are a couple of elements of supply chain security that are particularly key. The executive order from May of last year, I think was partly in direct response to the SolarWinds hack. And it calls out that we need a software bill of materials. Now again, in manufacturing that's something folks are used to, I actually had the opportunity to contribute to the software package data exchange format, SPDX when it was first started, I've lost track of when that was. But an S-bomb is all about saying, what are all of those components that I'm delivering in my solution? It might be an application layer. It might be the host operating system layer, but at every layer. And if I know what's in what I'm delivering, I have the opportunity to learn more information about those components to track where does Log4Shell, right? When the Log4j or Spring4Shell, which followed shortly thereafter. When those hit, how do I find out which solutions that I'm running have the vulnerable components in them and where are they? The software bill of materials helps with that but you also have to know where, right. And that's the Ops side. I feel like I missed a piece of your question. >> No, it's not a silver bullet though, to your point and Log4j very widely used, but let's bring Jim into the conversation. So Jim, we've been talking about some of these trends, what's your focus area of research? What are you seeing as some of the mega trends in this space? >> I mean, I focus in DevOps and DevSecOps and it's interesting just talking about trends. Kirsten was mentioning the open source and if you look back five, six, seven years ago and you went to any major financial institution, you asked them if they use an open source. Oh, no. >> True. >> We don't use that, right. We wrote it all here. It's all from our developers-- >> Witchcraft. >> Yeah, right, exactly. But the reality is, they probably use a little open source back then but they didn't realize it. >> It's exactly true. >> However, today, not only are they not on versed to open source, they're seeking it out, right. So we have survey data that kind of indicates... A survey that was run kind of in late 2021 that shows that 70% of those who responded said that within the next two years 90% of their applications will be made up of open source. In other words, the content of an application, 10% will be written by themselves and 90% will come from other sources. So we're seeing these more kind of composite applications. Not, everybody's kind of, if you will, at that 90%, but applications are much more composite than they were before. So I'm pulling in pieces, but I'm taking the innovation of the community. So I not only have the innovation of my developers, but I can expand that. I can take the innovation to the community and bring that in and do things much quicker. I can also not have my developers worry about things that, maybe just kind of common stuff that's out there that might have already been written. In other words, just focus on the business logic, don't focus on, how to get orders or how to move widgets and those types of things that everybody does 'cause that's out there in open source. I'll just take that, right. I'll take it, somebody's perfected it, better than I'll ever do. I'll take that in and then I'll just focus and build my business logic on top of that. So open source has been a boom for growth. And I think we've heard a little bit of that (Kirsten laughs) in the last two days-- >> In the Keynotes. >> From Red Hat, right. But talking about the software bill of materials, and then you think about now I taking all that stuff in, I have my first level open source that I took in, it's called it component A. But behind component A is all these transitive dependencies. In other words, open source also uses open source, right? So there's this kind of this, if you will, web or nest, if you want to call it that, of transitive dependencies that need to be understood. And if I have five, six layers deep, I have a vulnerability in another component and I'm over here. Well, guess what? I picked up that vulnerability, right. Even though I didn't explicitly go for that component. So that's where understanding that software bill of materials is really important. I like to explain it as, during the pandemic, we've all experienced, there was all this contact tracing. It was a term where all came to mind. The software bill of materials is like the contact tracing for your open source, right. >> Good analogy. >> Anything that I've come in contact with, just because I came in contact with it, even though I didn't explicitly go looking for COVID, if you will, I got it, right. So in the same regard, that's how I do the contact tracing for my software. >> That 90% figure is really striking. 90% open source use is really striking, considering that it wasn't that long ago that one of the wraps on open source was it's insecure because anybody can see the code, therefore anybody can see the vulnerabilities. What changed? >> I'll say that, what changed is kind of first, the understanding that I can leapfrog and innovate with open source, right? There's more open source content out there. So as organizations had to digitally transform themselves and we've all heard the terminology around, well, hey, with the pandemic, we've leapfrog up five years of digital transformation or something along those lines, right? Open source is part of what helps those teams to do that type of leapfrog and do that type of innovation. You had to develop all of that natively, it just takes too long, or you might not have the talent to do it, right. And to find that talent to do it. So it kind of gives you that benefit. The interesting thing about what you mentioned there was, now we're hearing about all these vulnerabilities, right, in open source, that we need to contend with because the bad guys realize that I'm taking a lot of open source and they're saying, geez, that's a great way to get myself into applications. If I get myself into this one open source component, I'll get into thousands or more applications. So it's a fast path into the supply chain. And that's why it's so important that you understand where your vulnerabilities are in the software-- >> I think the visibility cuts two ways though. So when people say, it's insecure because it's visible. In fact, actually the visibility helps with security. The reality that I can go see the code, that there is a community working on finding and fixing vulnerabilities in that code. Whereas in code that is not open source it's a little bit more security by obscurity, which isn't really security. And there could well be vulnerabilities that a good hacker is going to find, but are not disclosed. So one of the other things we feel strongly about at Red Hat, frankly, is if there is a CVE that affects our code, we disclose that publicly, we have a public CVE database. And it's actually really important to us that we share that, we think we share way more information about issues in our code than most other users or consumers of open source and we work that through the broad community as well. And then also for our enterprise customers, if an issue needs to be fixed, we don't just fix it in the most recent version of the open source. We will backport that fix. And one of the challenges, if you're only addressing the most recent version, that may not be well tested, it might have other bugs, it might have other issues. When we backport a security vulnerability fix, we're able to do that to a stable version, give the customers the benefit of all the testing and use that's gone on while also fixing. >> Kirsten, can you talk about the announcements 'cause everybody's wondering, okay, now what do I do about this? What technology is there to help me? Obviously this framework, you got to follow the right processes, skill sets, all that, not to dismiss that, that's the most important part, but the announcements that you made at Red Hat Summit and how does the StackRox acquisition fit into those? >> Sure. So in particular, if we stick with DevSecOps a minute, but again, I'll do. Again for me, DevSecOps is the full life cycle and many people think of it as just that Shift Left piece. But for me, it's the whole thing. So StackRox ACS has had the ability to integrate into the CI/CD pipeline before we bought them. That continues. They don't just assess for vulnerabilities, but also for application misconfigurations, excess proof requests and helm charts, deployment YAML. So kind of the big, there are two sort of major things in the DevSecOps angle of the announcement or the supply chain angle of the announcement, which is the investment that we've been making in sigstore, signing, getting integrity of the components, the elements you're deploying is important. I have been asked for years about the ability to sign container images. The reality is that the signing technology and Red Hat signs everything we ship and always have, but the signing technology wasn't designed to be used in a CI/CD pipeline and sigstore is explicitly designed for that use case to make it easy for developers, as well as you can back it with full CO, you can back it with an OIDC based signing, keyless signing, throw away the key. Or if you want that enterprise CA, you can have that backing there too. >> And you can establish that as a protocol where you must. >> You can, right. So our pattern-- >> So that would've helped with SolarWinds. >> Absolutely. >> Because they were putting in malware and then taking it out, seeing what happened. My question was, could sigstore help? I always evaluate now everything and I'm not a security expert, but would this have helped with SolarWinds? A lot of times the answer is no. >> It's a combination. So a combination of sigstore integrated with Tekton Chains. So we ship Tekton, which is a Kubernetes supply chain pipeline. As OpenShift pipelines, we added chains to that. Chains allows you to attest every step in your pipeline. And you're doing that attestation by signing those steps so that you can validate that those steps have not changed. And in fact, the folks at SolarWinds are using Tekton Chains. They did a great talk in October at KubeCon North America on the changes they've made to their supply chain. So they're using both Tekton Chains and sigstore as part of their updated pipeline. Our pattern will allow our customers to deploy OpenShift, advanced cluster manager, advanced cluster security and Quay with security gates in place. And that include a pipeline built on Tekton with Tekton Chains there to sign those steps in the pipeline to enable signing of the code that's moving through that pipeline to store that signature in Quay and to validate the image signature upon deployment with advanced cluster security. >> So Jim, your perspective on this, Red Hat's, I mean, you care about security, security's everywhere, but you're not a security company. You follow security companies. There's like far too many of them. CISOs all say my number one challenge is lack of talent, but I have all these tools to deal with. You see new emerging companies that are doing pretty well. And then you see a company that's highly respected, like an Okta screw up the communications on a pretty benign hack. Actually, when you peel the onion on that, it's just this mess (chuckles) and it doesn't seem like it's going to get any simpler. Maybe the answer is companies like Red Hat kind of absorbing that and taking care of it. What do you see there? I mean, maybe it's great for business 'cause you've got so many companies. >> There's a lot of companies and there's certainly a lot of innovation out there and unique ways to make security easier, right. I mean, one of the keys here is to be able to make security easier for developers, right. One of the challenges with adopting DevSecOps is if DevSecOps creates a lot of friction in the process, it's hard to really... I can do it once, but I can't keep doing that and get the same kind of velocity. So I need to take the friction out of the process. And one of the challenges a lot of organizations have, and I've heard this from the development side, but I've also heard it from the InfoSec side, right. Because I take inquiry for people on InfoSec, and they're like, how do I get these developers to do what I want? And part of the challenge they have is like, I got these teams using these tools. I got those teams using those tools. And it's a similar challenge that we saw on DevOps where there's just too many, if you will, too many dang tools, right. So that is a challenge for organizations is, they're trying to kind of normalize the tools. Interestingly, we did a survey, I think around last August or something. And one of the questions was around, where do you want your security? Where do you want to get your DevSecOps security from, do you want to get it from individual vendors? Or do you want to get it from like, your platforms that you're using and deploying changes in Kubernetes. >> Great question. What did they say? >> The majority of them, they're hoping they can get it built into the platform. That's really what they want. And you see a lot of the security vendors are trying to build security platforms. Like we're not just assess tool, we're desk, we're this, whatever. And they're building platforms to kind of be that end-to-end security platform, trying to solve that problem, right, to make it easier to kind of consume the product overall, without a bunch of individual tools along the way. But certainly tool sprawl is definitely a challenge out there. Just one other point around the sigstore stuff which I love. Because that goes back to the supply chain and talking about digital providence, right. Understanding where things... How do I validate that what I gave you is what you thought it was, right. And what I like about it with Tekton Chains is because there's a couple things. Well, first of all, I don't want to just sign things after I built the binary. Well, I mean, I do want to sign it, but I want to just sign things once, right. Because all through the process, I think of it as a manufacturing plant, right. I'm making automobiles. If I check the quality of the automobile at one stage and I don't check it to the other, things have changed, right. How do I know that I did something wasn't compromised, right. So with sigstore kind of tied in with Tekton Chains, kind of gives me that view. And the other aspect I like it about is, this kind of transparency in the log, right-- >> The report component. >> Exactly. So I can see what was going on. So there is some this kind of like public scrutiny, like if something bad happened, you could go back and see what happened there and it wasn't as you were expected. >> As with most discussions on this topic, we could go for an hour because it's really important. And thank you guys for coming on and sharing your perspectives, the data. >> Our pleasure. >> And keep up the good work. Kirsten, it's on you. >> Thanks so much. >> The IDC survey said it, they want it in platforms. You're up. >> (laughs) That's right. >> All right. Good luck to both you. >> Thank you both so much. >> All right. And thank you for watching. We're back to wrap right after this short break. This is Dave Vellante for Paul Gill. You're watching theCUBE. (upbeat music)

SUMMARY :

And I love the way, the supply chain hacks, the ability to prevent But Shift Left, explain to people so that the developers about the security needs and the SolarWinds hack, right, but let's bring Jim into the conversation. and if you look back We don't use that, right. But the reality is, I can take the innovation to is like the contact tracing So in the same regard, that one of the wraps on So it's a fast path into the supply chain. The reality that I can go see the code, So kind of the big, there And you can establish that So our pattern-- So that would've and I'm not a security expert, And in fact, the folks at SolarWinds Maybe the answer is companies like Red Hat and get the same kind of velocity. What did they say? and I don't check it to the other, and it wasn't as you were expected. And thank you guys for coming on And keep up the good work. they want it in platforms. Good luck to both you. And thank you for watching.
