  1. 3. Challenges, solutions and lessons learnt in 7 years of Service Management at CERN
    David Martin Clavo (CERN)
    09/10/2018, 14:00
    End-User IT Services & Operating Systems

    CERN has been using ITIL Service Management methodologies and ServiceNow since early 2011. Initially a joint project between just the Information Technology and the General Services Departments, now most of CERN is using this common methodology and tool, and all departments are represented totally or partially in the CERN Service Catalogue.

    We will present a summary of the current situation...

  4. 11. MAlt Project
    Emmanuel Ormancey (CERN)
    09/10/2018, 15:15
    End-User IT Services & Operating Systems

    Over the years, CERN activities and services have been increasingly relying on commercial software and solutions to deliver core services, often leveraged by interesting financial conditions based on recognizing CERN statuses like academic, non-profit, research, etc. Once installed, well spread, heavily used, the leverage used to attract CERN service managers to the commercial solutions tends...

  5. 57. Container orchestration as key to the evolution of CERN Web Services
    Alexandre Lossent (CERN)
    09/10/2018, 16:10
    End-User IT Services & Operating Systems

    Introduced in 2016, the "PaaS for Web Applications" service aims at providing CERN users with a modern environment for web application hosting, following the Platform-as-a-Service paradigm. The service leverages the Openshift (now OKD) container orchestrator.

    We will provide a quick overview of the project, its use cases and how it evolved over its more than two years of production phase....

  7. 12. Why would a python developer learn rust, when there are no jobs in it?
    Owen Synge
    12/10/2018, 09:25
    End-User IT Services & Operating Systems

    The language Rust has many potential benefits for the physics community. This talk explains why I think this is true in general and for HEP.

    This will be a general introduction to the rust programing language, as a replacement for C/C++ and way to extend python.
