Elasticsearch for Beginners and SQL Developers

Build Amazing — Tue, 19 Oct 2021 15:09:02 +0000

In this video we will learn some basic concepts of Elasticsearch eco-system. Topics that will be covered in this video: 1. What is Elasticsearch and its various use cases. 2. Key SQL Concepts and how ES handles it (or not)? 3. Hands-on demo with ES and SQL queries side by side.

You have used SQL for your entire developer life. And then you came across Elasticsearch, for search or even having it as a primary NoSQL datastore. But how do you transition from the SQL mentality to Elasticsearch? In this video we will learn some basic concepts of Elasticsearch eco-system. Topics that will be covered in this video: 1. What is Elasticsearch and its various use cases? 2. Key SQL Concepts and how ES handles it (or not)? 3. Hands-on demo with ES and SQL queries side by side.

Cloud Collective: Real-time Data Integration with Webhooks

Build Amazing — Mon, 11 Oct 2021 19:06:52 +0000

Let's talk about ways to integrate and push data out to external systems in near real-time with polling, streaming, and Webhooks.

Cloud Collective is a meetup for technologists interested in the Cloud Native approach towards developing and deploying web & mobile applications, streaming analytics, ETL pipelines, microservices, containers, functions, and applying Infrastructure as Code principles for automating infrastructure on AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud. In this recorded meetup, we focus on polling, streaming, and Webhooks.

Here are a few things covered in this video:

Overview of Polling, Streaming, and Webhook Integrations
Webhook Architecture: Registration, Security, API clients
A quick demo of Webhook implementation
Takeaways

A crash course into CI/CD services

Build Amazing — Fri, 08 Oct 2021 18:45:12 +0000

Let's talk about serverless CI/CD services provided by the Cloud Providers - we'll review the options and look at how to configure them.

This CI/CD crash course will help you understand exactly what managed CI/CD services from AWS, Azure, GCP, and GitHub are, how to configure them, and also the pros and cons of each vs. a self-hosted one.

Role of service mesh in Kubernetes explained

Build Amazing — Thu, 07 Oct 2021 19:36:16 +0000

Let's understand the role of service mesh in the Kubernetes world. Learn about Istio and its features (and if you even need it).

In this recorded meetup, you will learn about 2 scenarios:

Scenario 1: You have been using Kubernetes for the last few years and now your distributed platform has become complex. You now have 100s of microservices communicating over http and tcp. You are now looking into abstracting traffic management, service-service security (mTLS, authN, authZ) and telemetry out of the services to a separate layer aka Service Mesh.

Scenario 2: You have heard about Service Mesh for a while and want to understand features, complexities, configurations before jumping on to it completely.

Agenda:
• Monolith to Microservices
• Operational Challenges with Microservices
• How a Service-mesh fits in to address those challenges
• What is Istio?
• Feature Walkthrough
• Demo with installation and configurations

Handle MLOps across multiple cloud providers using Kubeflow

Build Amazing — Wed, 06 Oct 2021 20:14:57 +0000

Machine Learning Models are relatively easy to build but hard to roll out. Learn how to make ML workflows production-ready with Kubeflow.

With the recent huge demand and traction of DevOps and GitOps, many organizations are struggling to apply those practices to ML workloads. That's the exact use case we wanted to talk about in this meetup.

Quickly Deploy ML Workloads on Multi-Cloud Using Kubeflow. Learn how to quickly produce an end-to-end AI pipeline and easily deploy ML workloads onto multi-cloud using the well-known open-source platform called Kubeflow Pipelines. All major components of the AI pipeline such as data pre-processing, hyperparameter tuning, model training, model prediction, model explanation, and training orchestration can be easily implemented on the cloud with just a few easy steps.
