Building an application in a DevOps + Security culture, or have already bridged the gap with DevSecOps, the task remains the same: How to ensure that security best practices are understood, architected for and integrated into your application from day 1 AND remain relevant year 1? Find out here.

Description:

Whether you’re building an application in a DevOps + Security culture, or have already bridged the gap with DevSecOps, the task remains the same: How do you ensure that security best practices are understood, architected for and integrated into your application from day 1 AND remain relevant year 1. During this talk I’ll focus on how to achieve these goals amidst the ever changing landscape of people, process, and technology in the cloud, in the context of various compute environments like instances, containers and serverless functions. and how to do so using off-the-shelf AWS services and features. I’ll complete the story by accompanying this discussion with a reference application architecture and examples. Attendees of this talk will receive actionable best practices and guidance, with specific implementation details for AWS

About the talk

This isn’t a talk about microservices, NO-SQL, Container solutions or hip new frameworks. This talk will show some of the standard Java APIs that are part of Java since version 5, 6, 7 or 8. All this features are very helpful to create maintainable and future-proof applications, regardless of whether JavaEE, Spring, JavaFX or any other framework is used. The talk will give an overview of some important standard concepts and APIs of Java like annotations, null values and concurrency. Based on an overview of this topics and some samples the talk will answer questions like:

• How can I create my own annotations?
• How can I create a plugin structure without using frameworks like OSGI?
• What’s the best way to handle NullPointerExceptions?
• How can I write concurrent code that is still maintainable?

About the talk

Spring Boot is a product from Spring, that provides many configuration defaults for a new Spring project, so that one can set up a project in minutes. However, this is only one of the many features of Spring Boot. One of its module also provides many important Non-Functional Requirements out-of-the-box: monitoring, metrics, exposing those over HTTP, etc. In this presentation, I’ll demo some of those, that will make DevOps more than a little happy.

The economics of Cloud continues to dictate the need for radical changes to language runtimes. In this session lean about how OpenJDK with the Eclipse OpenJ9 JVM is leading the way in creating an enterprise strength, industry leading Java runtime that provides the operational characteristics most needed for Java applications running in the Cloud. This talk will introduce the significant benefits that Eclipse OpenJ9 brings to Cloud applications and will show you how easy it is to switch to OpenJDK with Eclipse OpenJ9 in various Cloud and container environments. Whether deploying micro-services or more traditional Java applications the combination of OpenJDK with Eclipse OpenJ9 can help you reduce operational costs across the board.

About the talk

Discussions abound about the ‘future of Java’ though most of them are actually focused on the here and now. What are the consequences of Java 9 modularity, of moving JEE to Eclipse, of running your application in the cloud? All questions that are important now. but what are the important questions for tomorrow?
In this talk learn about a different view on the real future of Java. See how new hardware technologies, new software approaches and new ideas are powering Java towards a life far removed from that envisioned at its inception. It’s time to look up and see how you will need to change how you think: Whether it’s driven by AI or Quantum Computers the problems of tomorrow demand new approaches and new thinking. Are you ready?

About the talk

Let’s see how do these technologies can affect us, developers.

This session starts with facts, establishing what a blockchain, smart contracts and other concepts are. Armed with theory, we will showcase a ‘smart contract’ application, built in Kotlin, with Corda (open source), then discuss applications, problems and consider implications of a contract being put “out there” (and what is “there”) You will walk out understanding what a ‘distributed ledger’ is, knowing what to get from Github. And maybe an idea of an application, who knows?

About the talk

Virtual, Augmented & Mixed Reality are the next major computing platforms that will redefine the way we interact with information and content.

About the talk

Oh Java, my old, lousy and boiler plaited friend. For ages, trying anything new (which luckily wasn’t that frequent afterall) required starting a new project, followed by a Sandbox class and a public static void main method. Alternatively, a simple JUnit test was a nice entrypoint as well – if we were lucky enough to have some dependency management sorted out.
Thankfully, things have changed. Together with Java9, a REPL has been introduced, so that everybody can just run an up-to-date Java shell and try out new syntax, new APIs, new libraries. Now we can feel like Scala, Clojure, Ruby, JavaScript, PHP, call whatever language developers – finally there. In this talk I’ll walk through essential REPL examples, see how we can use JShell to try out new language features (like Java10 local-variable type inference, Java9 Streams enhancements), but foremost, we will use it to build a real-life web application. Expect meat-only talk without theory, diagrams, useless “javax.swing.*” application examples.

About the talk

With Docker adoption on the rise in many organisations, it’s becoming increasingly challenging to manage multiple containerized environments across clusters and infrastructure providers.

Starting from the question of what do we use to manage our Kubernetes clusters in cloud or on-premise, we’ll look at a head-to-head comparison of major Container Orchestration and Management platforms in the enterprise and open-source world.

RedHat OpenShift Container Platform, Docker Enterprise, DC/OS, Rancher and Spinnaker and the main platforms which we’ll be taking a closer look at and I hope that this comparison will help make a more informed choice for a Container Management platform. Looking forward to discussing the above and possibly other options with you.

For those interested after the presentation, we could have a hands-on session with all of the above platforms, to get a real feeling of each one.

When we talk about a business, usually we are referring to a legal entity made up of an association of people. They are unite in order to focus their talents and skills to achieve specific goals, providing goods or services to consumers.

However when we are talking about businesses, we are implicitly talking about people and their needs and values.
But what is the future of businesses in this communication heavy era?
Are the current ways of doing business enough or we need to migrate to something new?

Aurelian will talk about some new ideas related to business and how they can adapt to the new generation – the millennials.

About the talk

Lots of people have plans for a product that will eventually reach 100s of thousands of users or more but are unsure of how to design their tech to scale. The Cloud makes this job easier but some early decisions still need to be made to make your app last as long as possible before a major architecture change would be required. Luke Briner uses his experiences of working at PixelPin – a large-scale Authentication-as-a-Service provider – and Microsoft Azure to share the lessons he learned along the way and how you can give yourself the best chance of making good decisions early

About the talk

Getting sites really fast requires more than tools and techniques, but a complete rethink of how we approach building for the web. When we built our new product, we started out with some strong considerations and opinions to build a better product for our users. We opted for an approach of no-tracking, limited use of third parties as well as dependencies and aimed for the best performance we can achieve. This led to a fast and solid experience that not only benefits our users, but also greatly benefits ourselves. This talk is a guide and advice on what has worked well and hopefully most of all, an inspiration for how we can build for a better web.

About the talk

Data processing paradigms are undergoing a paradigm shift as we move more and more towards real time processing. Emerging software models such as the SMACK stack are at the forefront of this change, focused on a pipeline processing model, but are also introducing new levels of operational complexity in running multiple complex distributed systems such as Spark, Kafka and Cassandra. Apache Mesos is a distributed system for running other distributed systems, often described as a distributed kernel. It’s in use at massive scale at some of the worlds largest companies like Mesos, Netflix, Uber and Yelp. DC/OS is an open source distribution of Mesos, which adds all the functionality to run Mesos in production across any substrate, both on-premise and in the cloud. In this talk, I’ll introduce both Mesos and DC/OS and talk about how they work under the hood, and what the benefits are of running these new kinds of systems for emerging cloud native workloads.

About the talk

When projects do fail for reasons that are primary technical, the reason is often uncontrolled complexity. The complexity goes out of hand when the code lacks structure. In large software projects where many developers work on the same code base one of the biggest challenge is to get consistency in code, to create development patterns for common problems, so you can control the complexity and size of the system.

It is a good to sometimes step back and briefly consider what we already know. Using his varied experience from a wide range of projects, Shane Hudson takes a look at the cornerstones of web performance (and indeed the web itself), the fundamentals that underpin everything we do. These thoughts about the way we build the web will give everyone a solid foundation of knowledge to think about, no matter their experience.

About the talk

Classification algorithms are a good starting point to understand how to make your browser smarter. You can also use decision trees to find out what a user draws on the screen. We will check out what you need to train your browser. How it recognizes which geometric form the user draws. And use that to create shortcuts for actions or navigation for a mobile browser, because keyboard shortcuts aren’t a thing in a PWA.

About the talk

Docker, Kubernetes, event bus, microservices, API gateway. So many unknown words and more important, unknown architecture. I’ve written a lot of microservices and found some best practices to develop scalable and maintainable apps. This is the definitive guide for building the Node microservices.

This talk is about Node.js microservices. The talk will go through the common terms and tools, such as Docker, Kubernates, Event Busses, API Gateways and so on and explain them to visitors. But the biggest focus of the talk is ,,what’s the best way to combine those tools” and write beautiful and scalable Node microservices. They should be small, independent and they should do just one function. The talk will contain tips that from my experience and it will have examples of the code and images (graphs) with the architecture. After this talk, the visitors are able to create good and scalable microservice architecture and deploy it. They’ll have the confidence to share the knowledge with the coworkers and will be able to convince lead developers in the company to try this architecture. I started to implement this in my current company and we’re not going back!

About the talk

One of the key concepts behind DevOps is end-to-end ownership of services. If your stack is not there just yet, this move is hard to make. Your teams need to take on more responsibility, and they may not be equipped for it. After all, you cant just adopt the full DevOps Toolbelt overnight. Of all the possibilities of devops tooling, which one should you invest your time in? This talk covers a number of areas where you can make small, iterative improvements in tooling that don’t require big investment, yet nudge the whole org towards fuller ownership.
