Infrastructure in a Post-Cloud Era, Isaac (.ike) Levy<br>
18:45, Woolworth Building: 233 Broadway, 21st Floor<br>
Notice: Location Change<br>
<br>
Abstract<br>
<br>
With a *BSD-minded perspective, we'll walk through the money and<br>
administrative ends of deploying cloud infrastructure, and compare it to<br>
experiences in colocation.<br>
<br>
Building modern internet applications is challenging; so why are so many<br>
technology companies relinquishing control over their technology? The<br>
public clouds, after all, are just computers owned by somebody else.<br>
<br>
This presentation contains real data crunched by data scientists, to<br>
help cut through marketing hype. Also covered, strategies and approaches<br>
to help you keep your stack "infrastructure agnostic", as well as<br>
strategies to make cloud metered costs less opaque.<br>
<br>
Note: This material was previously presented at LHMK, April 2016 - and<br>
will be presented assuming a technical audience.<br>

Speaker Bio<br>
<br>
Standing on the shoulders of giants, ike's background includes<br>
partnering to run a Virtual Server ISP before anyone called it a cloud,<br>
as well as having a long history building internet-facing infrastructure<br>
with UNIX systems.<br>
<br>
NYC startup veteran, and a long-time community contributor to the *BSD<br>
UNIX family, ike has grown computing infrastructure from a hand-full of<br>
virtual servers, to full datacenter-scale internet-facing infrastructure<br>
for a number of growth stage startups.<br>
<br>
.ike has been a part of NYC*BUG since it was first launched in January<br>
2004, was a long-time member of the Lower East Side Mac Unix User Group.<br>
He has spoken frequently on a number of UNIX and internet security<br>
topics at various venues, particularly on the topic of FreeBSD's<br>
jail(8), and his involvement in the OPNsense router firewall project.<br>
