Hi All,

Today?s cabinet move was truly a whopping success, with all the help from NYC*BUG volunteers!
(Even the box running this list was moved?)

I?m grateful to even the folks who couldn?t join us, but joining me today was:

 Robert Menes
 Brian Reynolds
 James Keenan
 Patrick McEvoy
 George Rosamond
 NYI NOC Staff on 21st Floor

Tactical admin support from remote locales,

 Mark Saad
 Okan Demirmen

As I stood at the end of the day surveying the details, it dawned on me, WE FINISHED IN ONE DAY!  (After 12 years of Open Source projects in/out of the cabinet, this is nothing to sneeze at...)

Datacenter work has lots of standing around, lots of menial tasks, and particularly with all our hodgepodge of donated gear, lots of ?gee, how do we mount this? sort of problem solving- and everyone who came today was creative, attentive, and really just pushed hard to get it all done as a *team*.

Working with everyone today made me really proud to be one of the hackers at NYC*BUG.

Also, we can?t thank NYI enough for their continued support, and use of their stellar facilities.

Rocket-

Subject: [announce] NYC*BUG Nov 2: Ike on Infrastructure in a Post-Cloud Era
Message-ID: <mailman.169.1477594830.15159.announce@lists.nycbug.org>

We are working on some upcoming meeting topics. Feel free to ping admin@
if you have a potential meeting idea.

Wednesday, November 2
Infrastructure in a Post-Cloud Era, Isaac (.ike) Levy
18:45, Woolworth Building: 233 Broadway, 21st Floor
Notice: Location Change

Abstract

With a *BSD-minded perspective, we'll walk through the money and
administrative ends of deploying cloud infrastructure, and compare it to
experiences in colocation.

Building modern internet applications is challenging; so why are so many
technology companies relinquishing control over their technology? The
public clouds, after all, are just computers owned by somebody else.

This presentation contains real data crunched by data scientists, to
help cut through marketing hype. Also covered, strategies and approaches
to help you keep your stack "infrastructure agnostic", as well as
strategies to make cloud metered costs less opaque.

Note: This material was previously presented at LHMK, April 2016 - and
will be presented assuming a technical audience.

Speaker Bio

Standing on the shoulders of giants, ike's background includes
partnering to run a Virtual Server ISP before anyone called it a cloud,
as well as having a long history building internet-facing infrastructure
with UNIX systems.

NYC startup veteran, and a long-time community contributor to the *BSD
UNIX family, ike has grown computing infrastructure from a hand-full of
virtual servers, to full datacenter-scale internet-facing infrastructure
for a number of growth stage startups.

.ike has been a part of NYC*BUG since it was first launched in January
2004, was a long-time member of the Lower East Side Mac Unix User Group.
He has spoken frequently on a number of UNIX and internet security
topics at various venues, particularly on the topic of FreeBSD's
jail(8), and his involvement in the OPNsense router firewall project.

Hey All,

One more little bit for Wed. meeting:

ARIN 38!
If nobody objects, I?d like to give a brief report from ARIN proceedings, and a quick report on Internet and Numbers related issues the BSD community can strategically make a great impact with, (and how to help and engage!)

Unless there are any objections, I?ll just plan to spend 5 (10) minutes on it!

Best,
.ike
