This document provides an overview of Bower, a package manager for the web. It discusses the requirements to use Bower, how to install and configure it, and how to run Bower to install dependencies. Bower is used to manage front-end components and their dependencies. It requires Node.js and NPM to be installed first. Then Bower can be installed globally and configured via a bower.json file to specify packages and dependencies. Running Bower will install all dependencies to the default or specified directory. The document also briefly explains how Bower can be used with XPages projects to manage front-end libraries.
There are two main types of scaling: vertical scaling involves upgrading hardware on a single server, while horizontal scaling involves adding more servers. Before scaling, strategies like caching and optimizing queries can improve performance. When scaling databases, options include sharding data across multiple servers and using master-slave replication. Server scaling with microservices breaks applications into independent, communicating components. General tips for scaling include monitoring resources, auto-scaling with metrics, and killing instances to reduce costs when possible.
Siddharth Vijayakrishnan discusses how web servers work and compares Apache to other web servers like Lighttpd. He explains that while Apache is popular, its multi-process model does not scale well under heavy loads. Lighttpd uses an event-driven model and single process design that allows it to outperform Apache in benchmarks. It has gained popularity as a faster alternative to Apache for serving dynamic content. The document also outlines future areas of improvement for Lighttpd.
This document provides an overview of Docker, explaining that Docker is an engine that sits between the OS and containers to enable rapid application deployment. It describes Docker components like images, containers, and repositories. Images are templates used to deploy containers, with images built from Dockerfiles that define layers. The document highlights that containers are stateless, and various strategies for handling configuration files. It also notes drawbacks like containers being read-only, and tips like using base images and keeping the firewall on.

Top-of-rack switches managed with the same tools as servers
With Cumulus Linux, top-of-rack switches can be managed with the same Linux tools as the servers. But until now, the out-of-band management switch was still separate, limited to traditional network switches and their unique tools.
With the new Cumulus RMP (Rack Management Platform) operating system for out-of-band switches, Linux can now be used to manage the entire rack. That means the tools you use for servers and for switches running Cumulus Linux can also be used for the out-of-band switch starting with the Penguin Computing Arctica 4804ip.
This presentation helps you to learn more about using Linux to manage the whole rack, including details on:
Open development
Consistent interface
Access to local network data for operations
Integrated tools
Ease of automation

TechTarget Event - Storage Architectures for the Modern Data Center - Howard ...NetApp
Keynote Presentation: How Storage Function Follows Architecture
Presented by Howard Marks, Founder and Chief Scientist, Deep Storage, LLC
Storage buyers today are faced with a broader variety of choices than ever before. Unfortunately, the architecture of the storage system they select will forever determine how well that system adapts to changes in their data center. While flash does make almost every storage system faster, the system's scalability, flexibility and manageability are determined not by the media but by the system's architecture.
This session will examine how storage system architectures predetermine how systems behave in the real world. We'll see how common storage architectures affect performance, scalability, quality of service, snapshots and vVol support.
This document discusses server operating systems. It defines a server as a computer that provides data to other computers on a network. It explains that server operating systems are specially designed to support networking and allow for shared files, data, and resources on a local or private network. Some examples of popular server operating systems mentioned are Windows Server 2012, OS X Server, UNIX, Linux, Solaris, and Netware. The document provides brief descriptions of these server operating systems and their advantages and disadvantages. It emphasizes that a server operating system allows for centralized management of users, groups, security, applications and other network functions.

Need for Speed: Removing speed bumps from your Symfony projects ⚡️Łukasz Chruściel
No one wants their application to drag like a car stuck in the slow lane! Yet it’s all too common to encounter bumpy, pothole-filled solutions that slow the speed of any application. Symfony apps are not an exception.
In this talk, I will take you for a spin around the performance racetrack. We’ll explore common pitfalls - those hidden potholes on your application that can cause unexpected slowdowns. Learn how to spot these performance bumps early, and more importantly, how to navigate around them to keep your application running at top speed.
We will focus in particular on tuning your engine at the application level, making the right adjustments to ensure that your system responds like a well-oiled, high-performance race car.

Graspan: A Big Data System for Big Code AnalysisAftab Hussain
We built a disk-based parallel graph system, Graspan, that uses a novel edge-pair centric computation model to compute dynamic transitive closures on very large program graphs.
We implement context-sensitive pointer/alias and dataflow analyses on Graspan. An evaluation of these analyses on large codebases such as Linux shows that their Graspan implementations scale to millions of lines of code and are much simpler than their original implementations.
These analyses were used to augment the existing checkers; these augmented checkers found 132 new NULL pointer bugs and 1308 unnecessary NULL tests in Linux 4.4.0-rc5, PostgreSQL 8.3.9, and Apache httpd 2.2.18.

Serve like a boss (part one)
1. SERVE LIKE A BOSS (PART ONE)
SOME CONCEPTS AND AN INTRODUCTION TO SERVER CONFIGURATION

2. SPOF (SINGLE POINT OF FAILURE)
• Hardware/Software interface
• It’s failure will cause whole
system fail
3. ROUND-ROBIN SCHEDULING
• No priority
• Simple
• Starvation-free
Usage:
• Process and network scheduler
• data packet scheduling
“Each person takes an equal share of something in turn”
5. CACHE EVERYWHERE!
Cache hit occurs when the
requested data can be found in
a cache, while a cache miss
occurs when it cannot.
6. BOTTLENECK
A bottleneck occurs when the
capacity of an application or a
computer system is severely
limited by a single component.
• Processor
• Communication link
• Disk IO
7. DATABASE CACHING
• Performance
• Availability: by continued service for applications that depend
only on cached tables even if the backend server is unavailable.
• Scalability
• Flexibility
8. TWO CACHING SOFTWARE
• Key / Value
• Up to 512MiB per Key
• Support data types
• Not only a cache mechanism
• Can perform persistence
• Simple Key / Value [String]
• Up to 1MiB per Key
• Faster than Redis
• Non-persistence
Use case:
User sessions caching
Use case:
Database caching

11. OPERATING SYSTEM
• Use Ubuntu when you have
more ram (otherwise CentOS fit
better)
• Use 32bit when you have less
ram
• Most of the time newer versions
of the OS require more initial
ram
• Always try to install packages
from OS repositories:
• Easy to update
• More stable and reliable
• More compatible with other apps
12. OPERATING SYSTEM CHALLENGES
• Configuring different distributions are different
• Configuring a 32bit OS may differ by it’s 64bit version
• Configuring different versions of a same distribution may differ
13. OPERATING SYSTEM CHALLENGES
Challenge: Distribution support
has finished and packages are
not maintained any more, so
you can not find a package or
the package is out dated
Solution: Use an external
repository to get the latest [or
your preferred] version of the
package (Like Remi and EPEL
for CentOS).
