Optimize Your AI Cloud Infrastructure: A Hardware Perspective - Liang Yan, CoreWeave

Monday October 28, 2024 14:00 - 14:40 JST

Hall B (4)

GPU Cloud has become a ubiquitous component of contemporary AI infrastructure, especially for distributed machine learning scenarios. While conversations around AI infrastructure optimization typically revolve around the application layer, such as machine learning tasks and distributed job schedulers, delving into the underhood of the GPU cloud is essential. Numerous factors, including POD Scheduler, Device Plugin, GPU/NUMA topology, ROCE/NCCL Stack, and more, can significantly impact performance.

This session will thoroughly explore the tuning of various machine models(CNN/RNN/Transformer) from MLPerf using an H100 Cluster as a reference. We will analyze the correlation between model performance and device operator configuration in nodes by presenting first-hand experimental results to unveil the hidden potential within a K8S GPU Cloud.

Contributing to KernelCI for Better Testing and Collaboration - Arisu Tachibana, Cybertrust Japan Co., Ltd.

Monday October 28, 2024 14:00 - 14:40 JST

Hall A (4)

Many products and services are dependent on the Linux Kernel. Because of this the Linux Kernel has to be tested on many different hardware to ensure the stability and reliability of these products or services, this is why KernelCI needs more collaboration both from users and companies. The Linux Kernel upstream community has requested more contributions from companies and users, in particular on the testing ecosystem, such as adding and reporting test results. By understanding corporate usage, the community can more easily provide support and collaborate effectively. KernelCI is one of the current main Kernel testing frameworks and is helping ensure the quality, stability and long-term maintenance of the Linux kernel. As a member of the KernelCI Technical Steering Committee (TSC), I will give details on KernelCI developments and directions. I will talk about current KernelCI new projects. I will talk about KCI tool usage and how it is possible to test own patches with the current KernelCI API and running the test privately. This session will provide useful information for people interested in adopting KernelCI and encourage them to contribute to KernelCI.

What's Happening in Japan? The Current Situation of SBOM - Ayumi Watanabe, Hitachi Solutions, Ltd.

Tuesday October 29, 2024 11:10 - 11:50 JST

Main Hall

This is an updated version of my previous CFP for OSS Summit EU. I will add deeper analysis of unique supply chain issues of Japan and SBOM best practice of Japanese companies. It would be a special insight of current SBOM practice of Japan. I believe this is a best topic to be discussed at OSS Summit Japan. Three years have passed since the issuance of the U.S. Executive Order (EO #14028), the adoption of SBOM in Japan has gradually progressed. Japanese companies are learning the minimum elements of SBOM which was published by NTIA, and are converting to a development process that takes automated SBOM generation into account. In July 2023, the Ministry of Economy, Trade, and Industry (METI) published a guide on the introduction of SBOM for software management, then the second version is scheduled to be released this summer. In this session, Ayumi Watanabe, a Japanese SBOM evangelist and an advisor to METI's SBOM PoC project, will discuss the status of SBOM in Japan, including the content of METI's guidelines, and the maturity and challenges of SBOM implementation in Japanese companies.

Running Containers on a Resource Constrained Embedded Device - Jeff Shaw, Digi International

Tuesday October 29, 2024 12:00 - 12:40 JST

Hall A (2)

Security is paramount in today's online world. To enhance security, most small routers have a read only operating system and read write storage for configurations and general storage. Adding functionality usually requires uploading new firmware to the device which can be costly in both data charges and time. Wouldn't it be great to be able to maintain the security of a read only filesystem, but still be able to install new features? Containers are isolated from the host system, maintaining security, but are able to be installed in the read write portion of storage, or even run completely in RAM. The problem with containers is the resource requirements just to run said container. In this talk, we will demonstrate how a minimal, but fully functional container subsystem can be run on a small, resource constrained embedded device. We will show how containers enable edge computing where the user can run their own software on the device without compromising security, or needing to integrate their application with the host operating system. Containers can turn even the meekest of devices into an edge computing powerhouse!

The Role of Open Source in the Telco Domain: How to Accelerate the Adoption? - Anuradha Udunuwara, Sri Lanka Telecom PLC

Tuesday October 29, 2024 12:00 - 12:40 JST

Hall A (1)

Telco operators/SPs are going through a massive transformation. This includes the imperative of DT & softwarization (SDN, NFV & cloud). While de-facto std. developing orgs. dominated the stds. space for telcos for years, lately we've seen the open source (OS) projects taking the lead in many of the nwk virtualization, automation, orchestration & telco cloud-related activities. As more control & programmability are abstracted towards SW layers in the telco stack, the use of cloud-native (CN) tech & tools has become unavoidable. But, unlike the OS communities, vendors, or enterprises, the telco adoption of OS and CN is much slower due to multiple reasons. These include cultural, educational & organizational challenges. I'd like to openly discuss these challenges & propose some solutions so that we all can collaborate to accelerate the OS and CN adoption in the Telco domain. My objective is to make OS and CN general & universal in the Telco domain for all operators/SPs, especially in developing economies.

Analysis of and Lessons from the Xz-Utils Vulnerability – What Might Come Next? - Taku Shimosawa & Atsuya Kato, Hitachi, Ltd.

Tuesday October 29, 2024 14:00 - 14:40 JST

Main Hall

The xz-utils vulnerability has attracted attentions from every person who are involved in not only open-source software but also any form of software that is built with a collaboration of developers. The vulnerability, or rather the social engineering attack has combined multiple attack techniques: maintainer takeover, obfuscated trigger code, and binary files pretending sample archives, and targeted Linux distributions, which are fundamental in the current software supply chain. In this session, Taku aggregates multiple existing analyses about the vulnerability, and explains how the attack was performed with a progress of the incident as well as technology details of the malicious source code and binary. Taku also presents a potential risk of similar incidents in open-source repositories by using some utilities including OpenSSF’s Scorecard and Criticality Score. This session would suggest what kind of attacks would come next for the software industry and would be mitigated or coped with.

Computing Infrastructure for 2024 - Haruhisa Fukano, Fujitsu

Tuesday October 29, 2024 14:50 - 15:30 JST

Hall A (3)

Edge computing is an important technology for a data-driven society that makes decisions in real time from data. LF Edge, a project of The Linux Foundation, is working to establish an open and interoperable edge computing framework that is independent of hardware, processor, cloud, and OS. LF Edge is also focused on enabling edge AI because of the growing need for real-time AI processing. However, there are challenges to achieving an infrastructure that is both energy efficient and flexible, such as increasing data volumes, increasing the computational complexity of AI models, and meeting application-specific requirements. So we need innovation in infrastructure technology. Therefore, The Linux Foundation and THE IOWN GF signed a basic agreement in June 2023 to integrate the Linux Foundation’s software on the infrastructure proposed by IOWN GF to develop a common infrastructure that improves performance, reduces latency, and improves energy efficiency. Based on this agreement, we planned the IOWN GF/LF Edge Joint PoC to demonstrate the convergence of the two technologies and the performance improvements. This presentation describes the content of the PoC.
