** PLEASE SUBSCRIBE TO THE CHANNEL TO SUPPORT ME - THANKS ** More info that I could not fit into the Description section of the video: 2 - Major Cloud Outage Apart from CrowdStrike, here are some of the major public cloud and cloud service outages that occurred in 2024: 1. AT&T: In February, AT&T experienced a significant outage due to an equipment configuration error, causing customers across the entire United States to lose network access for over 12 hours. 2. Verizon: In September, Verizon customers faced service disruptions due to issues with their network. 3. Microsoft: In July, Microsoft had outages affecting Azure and Microsoft 365 services, impacting many users and solution providers - CRN](www.crn.com/news/cloud/2024/the-10-biggest-cloud-outages-of-2024-so-far). 4. Salesforce: In May, Salesforce experienced service failures that affected its users - CRN](www.crn.com/news/cloud/2024/the-10-biggest-cloud-outages-of-2024-so-far). 5. Facebook and Instagram: On March 5, over 11.1 million people reported issues with Facebook and Instagram, making it one of the largest outages of the year. Some irresponsible journalism saw the CrowdStrike incident being blamed on Public Clouds or being a good case for Multicloud adoption, when actually, had enterprises used Public Clouds (for solutions, such as VDI and remote management), these could have mitigated the outage or at least, allowed those same enterprises to recover more quickly than they, potentially, did. As to how a Multicloud strategy can help mitigate/avoid an endpoint device outage, I really do not understand this thinking at all, considering whichever Public Cloud one would use, they all end at the same (single) endpoint device, regardless of which Public Cloud was addressing it. And considering there's only a single/finite number of endpoints at each location, a Multicloud strategy really doesn't help at all with this. Not. One.

But 900+? Over a period of literally decades?! - The repetition, the consistency in the alleged wrongdoings cannot be attributed to pure conincidence! * What did she do? She threw her team under the bus! - She claimed that they "didn't tell her" about the scandal - All she had to do was turn on her TV set!! - She told the inquiry: Her senior team failed to inform her of key information but said "she has no desire to point the finger at others". REALLY?!! - This was greeted with "groans" from the public gallery. - And when she said she didn't want to blame others, with "laughter"!! * Inquiry has heard from 298 witnesses, received 780 witness statements and dealt with more than 2.2 million pages of disclosure. * BBC "Months after the Post Office began rolling out Horizon in 1999, the prosecution of sub-postmasters began, and lasted until 2015, resulting in one of the most widespread miscarriages in British justice." * Lawyer for the Sub-Postmasters stated: - "People were ruined, people were bankrupted, people were imprisoned, there were atrocious miscarriages of justice, people died. Whether the board and the executive knew of these injustices from the start is an irrelevant diversion." * UK Gov will pay shortfalls from previous system to Horizon = Capture - 1992 - 1999 - replaced by Horizon === 5 - Tech Updates/Interesting Solutions * Storm brewing around Open Source Initiative (OSI) - Open Source AI Definition thenewstack.io/the-case-against-osis-open-source-ai-definition/ - The article discusses the Open Source Initiative's (OSI) recent attempt to define open source AI, which has sparked significant debate and criticism within the open-source community. The OSI's definition has been endorsed by several organizations, but many prominent figures in the open-source world have voiced their concerns1. - Critics argue that the definition is flawed and doesn't align with the traditional understanding of open source. Key points of contention include: - Lack of Requirement for Open Training Data: Critics believe the definition should mandate open training data for AI models. - Flexibility and Future Understanding: Some argue that the definition leaves too much room for future changes and lacks clarity. - Misapplication of Open Source Principles: There's a belief that applying open source principles to AI is inappropriate, as AI involves more than just source code. - Overall, the article highlights the ongoing tension and differing opinions about how open source should be defined in the context of AI === 6 - GenAI Runaway Successes * OpenAI is the clear outright winner in 2024 - Announcing GPT-4o Multimodal Model in May, a day before Google I/O, and in less than 30 minutes destroying all of Google's 9+ hours of announcements, during the rest of the week! - Announcing o1 (Strawberry) with Chain Of Thought * TED talk recommended by Paul Bevan www.ted.com/talks/jennifer_golbeck_is_ai_progress_stuck?subtitle=en

Incredible! 👏

We had these in the 80s. They were called text based adventure games.

Hello from the other half of the Cloud Therapist that never been! 😀Thank you Richard for having me, it was pleasure to do this one together, and I somehow sense this may not be the end of us doing collabs going forward! Cheers, Leo.

Some extra notes and thoughts that I could not fit into the description of the video as space there is limited to 5k characters - UA-cam is so mean! * OpenStack History: - Started by RackSpace + NASA! - Where are they now? Oh, yes, they're now partners to the hyperscalers! - What happened? - It kind of picked up momentum around 2015/16 - I remember going to OpenStack Summit in Barcelona - I was with SUSE - Quite a few of the Open Source vendors jumped on board (Red Hat, SUSE, Canonical, HP (Helion), VMware vCloud (then sold to OVH Cloud) - Small Cloud Service Providers (based their clouds on OpenStack) - Even T-Systems has one - it's still running and it's called Open Telekom Cloud (OTC) - it's actually probably the most automated OpenStack-based cloud out there! * Enter Kubernetes! - It was all going well until Kubernetes and Containers hit the mainstream - 2017/18 - Around that period, I jumped ship from SUSE (2016 - had OpenStack distro only because Red Hat had one), to Mirantis (2018 - big on OpenStack) and then Heptio (2018 - big on Kubernetes) * Kubernetes really killed it - We moved from this VM concept to Containers - OpenStack Foundation changed its name to Open Infra Foundation * So now you had to run OpenStack, then Kubernetes, then your Pods and Containers? - Does not make sense to run two layers of infrastructure, cloud, hypervisor, virtualisation, before you can do anything useful...! * OpenStack is: - An entire cloud ecosystem - it's not a runtime or a cluster or even only a hypervisor! - It's effectively a "Cloud Operating System) like Mesos and others have tried to be in the past - Lots of OpenStack modules: Neutron, Nova, Ironic, Barbican, Cinder/Swift, Heat, Trove, Glance, Horizon, Keystone - Funny named ones: Freezer, Cyborg, Blazer - Managed by different project teams! governance.openstack.org/tc/reference/projects/ * I had a conversation with Copilot about the virtues of OpenStack vs Kubernetes and it tried its best to remain neutral: - OpenStack and Kubernetes "solve similar issues" - Copilot - Neutron: Networking is complex and difficult part to scale - Cloud Therapist: Why use OpenStack with Kubernetes for bare metal or public cloud or Kubernetes distros? Copilot: "Good question!" * One of the worst and self-indulgent things about OpenStack was that they started naming each of their releases - giving each one a different name! - What is the point of this? - This move for me was the epitome of boredom, overconfidence and arrogance! - Unfortunately, Kubernetes has started doing the same thing, as well - Let's see how long THAT lasts now! LOL * Present Day: - Vendors have mostly moved away from OpenStack - It has retreated into telco space - OpenStack was strong in telco due to Network Function Virtualisation (NFV) - virtualisation of telco hardcore equipment - But even that is threatened - AWS announced in 2023 Telco Network Builder + Managed Telco Networks aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/new-aws-telco-network-builder-deploy-and-manage-telco-networks/ * Rackspace attempts to dis-spell some OpenStack myths and rumours: www.rackspace.com/blog/dispelling-myths-openstack-clouds * Nobody I know is now contemplating using OpenStack - Not in their data centre or any form of cloud or anywhere else! - If any cloud vendor is running OpenStack it's because of history, not by a recent decision! - You might as well run Kubernetes on VMware vSphere - and even that is a bad idea now, thanks to the Broadcom acquisition! * OpenStack is notoriously hard to Manage, Patch and Upgrade - Even if that was after lots of Chef/Puppet automations in those days! - Much like OpenShift customers - they dreaded upgrades - just attend an OpenShift Summit and ask a customer! - You needed an army of folks that knew OpenStack - Lived and breathed it with years of practical experience - a high priestly order of fanatics! * State Of OpenStack distros: - SUSE acquired HP Helion to integrate with its OpenStack solution - SUSE failed to integrate the two and they pulled out of the whole OpenStack endeavour a few years ago! - VMware vCloud sold to OVH Cloud - Red Hat continues to support it - Red Hat "Red Hat OpenStack Services on OpenShift" - announced in 2023 www.redhat.com/en/blog/red-hat-openstack-services-openshift-next-generation-red-hat-openstack-platform - "this blending of technologies requires careful planning" - Yes!!! - "Red Hat OpenStack Platform 17.1 is the last version of the product to use the classic form-factor of the control plane" - Both Canonical and Mirantis (with MOSK) have followed the same path as Red Hat * Conclusions - So was OpenStack a romantic notion? - A wishful, whimsical thought of running one's own cloud? * OpenStack is really superseded by Containers (Docker) and Orchestration (Kubernetes) - Trying to fit these into OpenStack or it into them, is just retro-fits either way! * OpenStack remains complex - upgrades are like a heart operation! * Only a handful of vendors supporting it * The whole concept of how we want to do cloud has moved on - Not even Hybrid or Private Clouds are that popular nor do they use OpenStack to build up on * We spent $805B on Public Cloud in fiscal 2024! - Does that say we want to build our own clouds? - And what is the best way to do GenAI today? Certainly not on OpenStack! * I declare that OpenStack is definitely DEAD!!

Microservices have certainly faced some criticism lately, such as: * Too Noisy: Microservices can become noisy due to their extensive inter-service communications. Lots of small services communicating frequently can lead to a noisy network, affecting performance and making debugging harder. * Not Best for All Scenarios: Absolutely. Microservices work wonders for large, complex applications needing scalability and flexibility. But for smaller, simpler applications, they can be overkill, adding unnecessary complexity. * Complexity and Cost: Breaking down an app into microservices often requires more infrastructure (e.g., multiple databases, load balancers). This can escalate costs in cloud environments due to increased resource usage and management overhead.

I'm a Devops and I think it is about to game over now. Because I don't see there''s no more openings for the DevOps jobs in my market since the last year. The fate of DevOps role is just like the EA role back in 2 decades ago. The Enterprise Architect thrived only a couple years (2005 - 2010). Then it sank forever. And I saw no more Enterprise Architect jobs available in the market in the past decade anymore. The Devops is on the same path as the EA now. So Devops will be history in a couple years later. Just a waste of time (I earned the title but no future to sustain).

Here are more Cloud types and capabilities: Emotional Cloud - This cloud service analyzes your feelings and only responds to your requests when it senses you’re in a good mood. If you're stressed, it will just send you motivational quotes instead of the files you need. Cloud of Confusion - Every time you upload a file, this cloud randomly renames it to something completely unrelated. Good luck finding that important report when it’s saved as "Fluffy Unicorn Dance Party!" Cloud of Procrastination - Instead of storing your files, this cloud only reminds you of them at the most inconvenient times, like during a meeting or while you’re on vacation. “Oh, you wanted to finish that project? Too bad-let's discuss it next week!” Invisible Cloud - Your data is technically stored in the cloud, but it’s invisible to any software. You’ll have to use your imagination to access your files-good luck remembering what you saved! Cloud of Regrets - Every time you upload a photo, this cloud sends you a reminder of all your past mistakes. “Remember that haircut you had in 2010? Here’s a file to remind you!” Dramatic Cloud - Every time you make a backup, the cloud plays a dramatic soundtrack and narrates your life story, complete with over-the-top voice acting. “In a world where data is lost, one user fights to protect their files…” Cloud of Infinite Looping - Whenever you try to access your files, you enter an infinite loop of “Loading…” messages. The only way out is to complete a series of increasingly absurd tasks, like singing a song about cloud storage. Cloud of Miscommunication - This cloud translates your requests into entirely different languages. Need a document? You’ll get a recipe for lasagna instead. “Close enough!”

I'm trying to purchase a copy of Johns book for Sales Engineers but the cheapest I can find it is £65 on Amazon. Is it really this expensive or can I find it cheaper elsewhere?

This just in: UK Labour Government just killed some of the previous announcements the Conversative UK Government made, less than 12 months ago (and many more very recently): www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cyx5x44vnyeo For the Conservative UK Gov announcements, watch the >shorts_ video with Amanda Brock: ua-cam.com/video/1Me9ARh_U48/v-deo.html

DevOps was supposed to be a WOW (Way of Working). Intended to result in Developers and Operations persons working as one, easing the road between them. It's not a skill set or a job title. Any more than saying "I'm an Agile Engineer" or "I'm a GitOps Engineer" Platform Engineering used to be called Operations. We need to spend less time creating buzz words for resume's and more time working co-operatively.

Some really great insights that add flavour and context to those political announcements. Glad Amanda mentioned the context and issue of creating and scaling our own businesses. Getting the UK to move from just being great at innovation to being good at scaling businesses on a regular basis will require more strategic thinking and mind set changes than our politicians are currently inclined to champion.

5:10 I guess you are more sales than dev 😂

Why is your guest's sound so high and yours so low? Also, your obsession with Platform Engineering is not worthy of so many useless "shorts"... :/

Paul's volume was like twice that of Richard's. Ever heard of audio normalization?

88% of statistics are made up

subtitles are weird: "by twenty six" (that was 1998 years ago) and "organizations" with a Z, you don't sound american
