June 10: Challenges in Building a Public Cloud
Amila will present, “War Stories from Building a Public Cloud,” at 11:55 a.m. – 12:45 p.m. on Wednesday, June 10, 2015, in the Roebling/Gleason room. He will begin by reviewing the issues that teams face when building a public cloud using a set of open source products. Amila then will discuss how he addressed the challenges he experienced when creating WSO2 Public Cloud with the fully open source WSO2 middleware platform, which is available under the Apache License 2.0.
Topics will include:
• Customizing and extending existing products
• Configuration management
• Ensuring security
• Managing frequent bug fixes, upgrades and migrations
• Collecting stats
• Receiving feedback and helping users
June 11: Deploying Containers With Docker, CoreOS & Kubernetes
Lakmal will present, “Containers in Production with Docker, CoreOS, Kubernetes and Apache Stratos,” at 11:50 a.m. – 12:40 p.m. on Thursday, June 11, 2015, in the Roebling/Gleason room.
Lakmal will begin by discussing how the integration of Apache Stratos with the Docker platform, CoreOS Linux distribution, and Kubernetes container management system provides a more powerful single toolkit for container orchestration, monitoring, auto-scaling and auto-healing support. Next, he will discuss how smart policies and infrastructure as a service (IaaS) agnostic support provide ability to run containers in almost every popular public and private cloud. Finally, Lakmal will examine how to install and deploy sample applications using Docker, CoreOS Linux and Kubernetes, as well as show how to use key Apache Stratos functions for application deployment, provisioning, auto-scaling and more.

Integrated Open Source Approach to the Connected Business
The WSO2 booth at QCon New York 2015 will have experts available to discuss the synergistic, integrated approach of WSO2’s 100% open source platforms in addressing the technology demands of competing in a connected world, including the cloud, API management, the management and security of mobile and Internet of Things devices, big data analytics, and DevOps. Among the WSO2 solutions featured will be products from the comprehensive WSO2 Carbon enterprise middleware platform, WSO2 Private PaaS, WSO2 Public Cloud, and the WSO2 App Factory cloud-enabled DevOps platform.
Significantly, all WSO2 solutions are built on the same fully componentized, OSGI-compliant code base. As a result, developers can easily deploy and customize any of these WSO2 products and the 175-plus components on which they are comprised, providing greater flexibility and agility to meet changing enterprise demands. In addition to WSO2 cloud platforms, all WSO2 Carbon enterprise middleware products also are fully multitenant and cloud-ready. This means IT professionals can write an application once and deploy it on the same middleware on-premises, in the cloud, or in a hybrid environment.
