SUMMARY:Roundtable Discussion on the Role of Analog Arts in a Digital AI World
DESCRIPTION:“What Role Do Physical Analog Arts Still Have in a World of AI and Digital Media?” \nEvent Details: \nDate: 4th of November 2024\nTime: 17.00 UK\nLocation: Committee Room 1\, House of Lords\, London\, UK \nThis event will explore the enduring value of analog and physical arts in a society increasingly shaped by artificial intelligence and digital technologies. We are thrilled to feature a dynamic lineup of speakers\, including Mary Fisk-Taylor representing a business heavily engaged in analogue art creation\, Lawrence Lek recent winner of the Frieze London artist award 2024 and a practitioner of AI-enabled art\, and Joy Omoregie – GenAI innovative programs lead\, within the GenAI Innovation Centre at Amazon Web Services – who will bring their expertise and perspectives to kick off the conversation. \nThe discussion will cover topics such as: \n1. The Historical and Cultural Importance of Physical Arts: How physical arts have shaped our societies and what still persists today as we move into a new era of AI and digitally generated art. \n2. The Disruptive Force of AI in the Art World: As AI can now mimic\, replicate\, and even generate styles\, how do we understand the value of human-generated and physical art in a digital-first world? \n3. The Role of Policy in Balancing Physical and Digital Art Forms: How policymakers can foster a healthy relationship between our historic physical-first culture and the emerging digital culture.

SUMMARY:SUSE Cloud Native Meetup\, UK
DESCRIPTION:14 November 2024 – 6pm – 9pm \n\nDetails \n\n\nHi Everyone\nWe’re back with #3\, once again in London. Join us for our third Meetup in November. \nTimeline \n\n6.00 – Walk-in/Doors open ?\n6.15 – Food & Drinks ??☕️\n6.45 – Welcome by Nelson Batsford\n7:00 – Talk One ‘Reusable Rancher: Deploying and operating in Automation’ Fraser Davidson\, CTO Frontier\n7:30 Talk Two ‘Building a Secure Kubernetes Service for Private Telco Cloud’ Fintan Stewart\, Technical Delivery Specialist\, Platform Architecture\, BT\n8:00 Networking and Drinks ??\n9:00 – Time is up! See you next time. ?\n\nWe hope to see you there! \nAbstracts:\nReusable Rancher: Deploying and Operating in Automation \nIn this talk we’ll show you how to get started automating Rancher\, from server to multi-cluster apps. We’ll be using a cloud managed Kubernetes service and a CI/CD platform – plus tools like Helm and Terraform – to demo how you can deploy and operate Rancher in automation\, developer playground to production. \nBuilding a Secure Kubernetes Service for Private Telco Cloud \nIn the Telco industry\, demand on private cloud is shifting from hosting VNFs (Virtualised Network Functions) increasingly to CNFs (Containerised Network Functions). This presentation puts forward an approach to building a substrate agnostic managed Kubernetes service\, orchestrated with Rancher for use across existing on prem cloud environments and expanding to bare metal workload clusters. We explore the unique security challenges faced by telco operators and propose a robust architecture that integrates advanced security measures\, including network segmentation\, encryption\, and access control. By leveraging open source virtualisation and Kubernetes components\, a solution can be provided that is reliable but flexible to meet the complex network needs of telco CNF applications\, or\, for example\, run a data platform monitoring and analysing network events. We aim to provide an overview of the approach to component choice\, cluster builds with GitOps CI/CD and the supporting platforms required to drive adoption of a managed Kubernetes platform.
