About The Cloud Computing Village
(image from Wikipedia)
Cloud Computing is an enabling technology that essentially relies on distributed data stores and networks to allow data storage across distributed containers. There are many pros and cons to consider, a world of approaches and uses to discuss. We'll talk about them here in the Cloud Computing Village. Join us!

Orlando Workshop on December 15, 2011
Title: understanding cloud-enabled modular middleware
WSO2 Carbon and Stratos provides a complete middleware platform for Enterprise computing: from on-premise to a full cloud-enabled runtime. In this session we will spend the morning looking at the Carbon platform – including leading ESB, AppServer, Governance Registry and more. In the afternoon we will look at the way this runtime is also available in a multi-tenant scalable, elastic architecture. This session will cover SOA and Cloud middleware, PaaS as well as digging deep into Cloud concepts.
This hands-on workshop provides a real opportunity to understand Carbon, OSGi middleware, PaaS, Stratos, and get going with a Cloud Platform. StratosLive is a complete running platform in the cloud, and participants will be encouraged to set up a tenant using their laptops during the workshop, and will understand how to install and use Stratos in a Private PaaS environment.
Location: Orlando, FL

Presentation: Fix SLO Breaches before They Repeat: an SRE AI Agent for Application Workloads
Bruno Borges discusses a paradigm shift in performance management: moving from manual tuning to automated SRE agents. He explains how to leverage the USE and jPDM methodologies alongside LLMs to reduce MTTR from hours to seconds. By utilizing MCP tools for real-time diagnostics and memory dump analysis, he shares how engineering leaders can scale systems while meeting strict objectives.

Google DeepMind researchers introduced SIMA 2 (Scalable Instructable Multiworld Agent), a generalist agent built on the Gemini foundation model that can understand and act across multiple 3D virtual game environments. The SIMA 2 architecture uses a Gemini Flash-Lite model trained on a mixture of gameplay and Gemini pretraining data.

Delivery performance rarely changes in a straight line. Small degradations caused by tooling, environment instability, or team changes can accumulate quietly, while real improvements take time to emerge. This article shows how combining DORA metrics with Process Behavior Charts helps teams zoom out, detect meaningful shifts early, and validate improvement hypotheses.
