Republished from the CAIOS Team Stream DynaCLI is an open source, cloud-friendly Python library for converting pure Python functions into Linux Shell commands on the fly. DynaCLI is ideal for automating routine development (including testing, deployment) and administrative (e.g. new user registration) tasks in a modern cloud software environment because…

Straight to the Point Software developers are busy people. They have no time neither for writing nor for reading long, well-polished texts (too often just yet another marketing BS). This post is for experienced Pythonista. I’m not going to explain the basics, but rather will just get straight to the point. The Composite Design…

Object Model and Architecture — Context and Problem Statement As it was argued elsewhere in another article an order of magnitude improvement of software development process productivity is required in order to realize full potential of the Serverless Cloud technology. …

Part One: Linux FUSE Cloud Storage Mount — Introduction Python Cloud Importer was developed as a part of the Cloud AI Operating System (CAIOS) project described at a high level in a separate article. Here, we are going to provide a more detailed account of motivation and internal design of this part of the system. This is the first…

Part Two: Python Cloud Importer — Introduction Python Cloud Importer was developed as a part of the Cloud AI Operating System (CAIOS) project described at a high level in a separate article. Here, we are going to provide a more detailed account of motivation and internal design of this part of the system. …

Part Three: Supporting shared EFS — Introduction Python Cloud Importer was developed as a part of the Cloud AI Operating System (CAIOS) project described at a high level in a separate article. Here, we are going to provide a more detailed account of motivation and internal design of this part of the system. …

Responding to the Serverless Revolution — Introduction Unlike containers, which were an incremental change introducing smaller VMs with less isolation, serverless technology has produced truly disruptive change, yet to be fully absorbed by the software industry. We need to stop talking about faster horses and start talking about race cars. While cloud functions (e.g., AWS Lambda) constitute…

Is there a better way to tell Serverless Saga? — Setting the Stage My previous post was about Consistent Modeling of Serverless long-running background tasks. There, the following Process Model diagram of a social network crawler was presented: In such architecture, the whole process of collecting data about a particular MakirOto system user is orchestrated by an AWS Step Function. …

Warming Up In the previous post I’ve proposed a new approach to the Serverless Architecture specification. In this post, I argued, that the current modeling practices use too limited vocabulary and produce artifacts without consistent semantics: Serverless Architecture Language Could we make it better?medium.com As a running sample I chose the MakirOto application, presented by IL AWS Solution Architects Team…
