The document compares several popular JavaScript libraries and frameworks for choosing one to use in a web application project. It evaluates libraries like jQuery, Prototype, Dojo, Ext JS and others based on criteria like popularity, features, browser compatibility, and how well they integrate with other tools needed for the project. After testing the top candidates, jQuery is selected as the winner due to its lightweight size, active community, and ability to meet the project's requirements.
MariaDB started life as a database to host the Maria storage engine in 2009. Not long after its inception, the MySQL community went through yet another change in ownership, and it was deemed that MariaDB will be a complete database branch developed to extend MySQL, but with constant merging of upstream changes.
The goal of the MariaDB project is to ensure that everyone is part of the community, including employees of the major steering companies. MariaDB also features enhanced features, some of which are common with the Percona Performance Server. Most importantly, MariaDB is a drop-in replacement and is completely backward compatible with MySQL. In 2010, MariaDB released 5.1 in February, and 5.2 in November – two major releases in a span of one calendar year is a feat that was achieved!
DBAs and developers alike will gain an introduction to MariaDB, what is different with MySQL, how to make use of the feature enhancements, and more.

JavaOne2016 - Microservices: Terabytes in Microseconds [CON4516]Malin Weiss
By leveraging memory-mapped files, Speedment and the Chronicle Engine supports large Java maps that easily can exceed the size of your server’s RAM.Because the Java maps are mapped onto files, these maps can be shared instantly between several microservice JVMs and new microservice instances can be added, removed, or restarted very quickly. Data can be retrieved with predictable ultralow latency for a wide range of operations. The solution can be synchronized with an underlying database so that your in-memory maps will be consistently “alive.” The mapped files can be tens of terabytes, which has been done in real-world deployment cases, and a large number of micro services can share these maps simultaneously. Learn more in this session.

The best code is the one you never need to write. Using code generation and automated builds, you can minimize the risk of human error when developing software, but how do you maintain control over code when large parts of it are handed over to a machine? In this tutorial, you will learn how to use open source software to create and control code automation. You will see how you can generate a completely object-oriented domain model by automatically analyzing your database schemas. Every aspect of the process is transparent and configurable, giving you, as a developer, 100 percent control of the generated code. This will not only increase your productivity but also help you build safer, more maintainable Java applications and is a perfect solution for Microservices.
Presented at Percona Live Amsterdam 2016, this is an in-depth look at MariaDB Server right up to MariaDB Server 10.1. Learn the differences. See what's already in MySQL. And so on.

We'll be reviewing the changes and additions to Rails 3.1, giving you a walk-through of what it all means (asset pipeline, what?), in the context of a brand new app, and an older app that will need to be upgraded.
OSGi DevCon 2013
One of the real surprises in my career has been the emergence of JavaScript as an increasingly reasonable choice as a systems language. In this talk I'll make the case that it's time for the OSGi community to gather and start looking at creating specifications for JavaScript based implementations. The Orion team started with an OSGi-insired MicroService architecture and in the past year has grown to also include a plugin architecture that is closely aligned with both OSGi bundle metadata and lifecycle concepts. We will use Orion as an example to discuss areas that we think are suitable for standardization.
Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms.

1. Choosing a JavaScript library
Intro
One of Kauri1's goals is not to reinvent the wheel until necessary. A modern web application framework
these days needs a JavaScript library to provide common, reusable functionality and save us from writing
lots of repetitive code. Libraries also provide a layer of abstraction, thus hiding browser differences.
We do not want to write one ourselves because it saves time to use an existing one, plus these libraries are
more likely to contain fewer bugs because of the significant user base.
Because of the multitude of Javascript libraries, we started our search by selecting only the most-used, most-
popular and up-to-date Ajax-enabled libraries.
