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...
An update on CERN Linux support distributions and services.
An update on the CentOS community and CERN involvement will be given.
We will discuss software collections, virtualization and openstack SIGs update.
We will present our anaconda plugin and evolution of the locmap tool.
A brief status on alternative arches (aarch64, ppc64le, etc...) work done by the community will be given.
In this presentation, we will report on Indico's usage within the High Energy Physics Community, with a particular focus in the adoption of Indico 2.x.
We will also go over the most recent developments in the project, including the new Room Booking interface in version 2.2, as well as plans for the future.
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...
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....
The BNL Scientific Data and Computing Center (SDCC) has been developing a user analysis portal based on Jupyterhub and leveraging the large scale computing resources available at SDCC. We present the current status of the portal and issues of growing and integrating the user base.
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.
