Weaponising procurement: Transforming procurement to build value and partnership
Procurement leaders are facing the toughest market environment in at least 20 or 30 years as new and changing circumstances have upended decades of procurement practices and management capabilities. Weaponisation is the act of making something into a weapon or making it more effective as a weapon: it is perhaps a slightly alarming term to associate with procurement. However, as the saying goes, we live in "Interesting Times". The Red Hat Global Financial Pursuits team and our account managers construct committed financial models for and with our customers' procurement leaders that focus on financially de-risking change and positioning procurement as a powerful and more accurate tool (or weapon) for the achievement of business outcomes. More specifically, we financially engineer and close deals that help make the execution of strategy financially possible, align our customers' procurement models with Red Hat to their business models and create Value and Partnership. Casandra Prerost, Global Enterprise Deal Director, Red Hat |

Lessons learnt at the Department of Work & Pensions (UK) on their digital transformation journey
Dean Clark (ex-DWP Digital Senior Technical Lead - Integration technologies for Shared Platforms) has recently joined Red Hat.
He would like to share his learnings regarding creating a coalition of the willing within the government to drive forward the benefits of platform thinking.
The Department for Work and Pensions recently won the Innovator of the year award for their 'one platform' work.
With solid collaboration from Red Hat, the department has demonstrated the benefits of creating communities of contributors using open-source values to drive the department's cloud-native aspirations.
With a radical focus on developer productivity and self-service, using the concepts from team topologies, the team could catalyse a change in culture needed to increase collaboration across the delivery units and, as a result, create more re-use and standardisation.
Through this initiative and guided by industry-recognised metrics for high-performing teams, the department was able to structure an effective learning and development program to enable engineers at all levels to contribute to value delivery on day one, proving a valuable strategy against the war for talent. |

Empathetic collaboration as a cornerstone of DevSecOps
Organisations globally are recognising the necessity of embracing digital transformation, in order to not only stay competitive, but to grow, thrive, and expand. Simultaneously, organisations are becoming more aware of the increasing need to secure digital assets, as cyber attacks are rising in frequency and impact at a terrifying rate. Organisations are finding these two needs - transformative digital adoption and a growing requirement for security - are often diametrically opposed, within the context of their organisations' culture and philosophy.
How can we ensure that security is embedded in both our technology and our culture, from ideation through delivery?
In this session, we will focus on educating organisations on how to create and sustain a culture of DevSecOps, through embracing empathetic collaboration and a sharing of expertise, and talk about how to embed this cultural shift across all capabilities: people, processes, and technology.

Red Hat Enterprise Linux in 2022 - The engine for innovation
For two decades, Red Hat Enterprise Linux has served as the backbone of enterprise IT, both in the datacenter and in the cloud. In this session, we'll discuss how Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9 has evolved to keep pace with current trends in software delivery. We will also take a look at reference architectures for use cases across data center, hybrid cloud, and edge. Murph, Principal Solution Architect, Red Hat |

How automation supports your journey to the cloud
Do you remember your last 'transformation' project? Imagine you had to do an upgrade nearly 200,000 VMs now, fix overdue patching, remove underutilised VMs, increase low reproducibility and also decrease the amount of hand-offs per team.
Sal and Adam will share their experiences where they had to address exactly this and succeeded, by combining their lessons learned and a cloud first strategy, you can avoid their pitfalls.

Integrating systems in the age of Quarkus, Serverless and Kafka
Have you ever got the task to implement an exchange of data between two systems that were not designed to communicate with each other? We bet you have, and we dare to introduce a couple of tools and approaches making the task easier to accomplish. This talk will cover: Apache Camel, Quarkus dev mode and Knative
First, we’ll speak about Apache Camel, the Swiss knife of integrating heterogeneous systems. It offers 300+ connectors out of the box, to transfer data to and from a wide variety of systems. The toolbox also brings options to route, filter and transform data based on the wildest requirements of a modern or legacy enterprise.
Second, we will show what fun it is to write Camel integrations on top of Quarkus. You’ll learn about the famous Quarkus dev mode - the background compilation & live reload of the application while coding for faster dev cycles. Further, we’ll talk about dev services - an automatic provisioning of a required external service, such as Kafka broker or a database when testing or developing. Bonus: Quarkus applications start in milliseconds and consume just a few tens of megabytes of RAM.
Third, we will explain how the outstanding integration capabilities of Apache Camel enrich serverless architectures based on Knative. We will touch topics like auto-scaling and scaling to zero, content based routing of cloud events, as well as streaming data between Apache Kafka and the 300+ kinds of systems supported by Apache Camel. Zineb Bendhiba, Senior Software Engineer |

Developer joy with Quarkus
In this presentation we will introduce the main Quarkus features and dive into securing a Hibernate DB application with Keycloak OpenID Connect Provider using Quarkus devmode features such as continuous testing, live reload, and DevServices for DB and Keycloak, and making it work without having to read the OpenID Connect specification.

How Openshift Cloud Services can accelerate your Kubernetes journey on the cloud
Kubernetes as a concept may sound simple, its implementation though its another story. DIY Kubernetes is a dangerous/painful sport that definitely is not tailored for every enterprise as the hassle is not aligned with the point where business value is produced. In this presentation I will speak about Kubernetes to Self Managed Openshift to Fully Managed Openshift , gradually showing the benefits that are gained and how this accelerates the path to the "sweet spot" which is the business value.

Upgrading to Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9 - Planning and execution
While many organisations are now leveraging the power and flexibility of containers, for some workloads, most also still have traditional Linux servers or VMs providing mission critical functionality. With security a top priority for most IT administrators, keeping these systems fully updated and on supported versions is a key concern. In this hands-on session we will look at what's needed to upgrade to RHEL 8 or RHEL 9, and see how Red Hat Satellite Server can help to achieve this at scale. PLEASE NOTE: LAPTOPS ARE REQUIRED FOR THIS SESSION Andrew Harford, Senior Linux Systems Specialist, Securelinx |

How Open Source software is vital for sustainability
These days, sustainability is a key priority for every organisation. However, it is such a broad topic that it often helps to examine the topic from a number of different perspectives to identify all the opportunities we have to get us to a better future. In this talk, Clare will look at sustainability through the lens of open source. From reducing environmental impact of technology, to sustainable software development practices, to supporting the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals, open source has a huge part to play in positively impacting sustainability in both software and hardware ecosystems. Clare Dillon, Executive Director of InnerSource Commons, Open Ireland Network |
