DevOps principles are great, but when introduced into a legacy development process, this change can be tough. However when working on projects with tight timelines or trying to catch up to a rapidly advancing market, it’s important that these processes are put in place. It’s important that everyone is on the same page with these changes, and for non-technical team members, it can be difficult to quantify the benefits of DevOps culture. This can be frustrating for someone who’s heard success stories and wants to implement it at their company. This talk will be a look at how we introduced a build system, updated version control practices and changed communication standards at a company with a previously-decade old toolset and mindset. We’ll also examine how a fragile server provisioning and rigid deploys were transitioned to a more fluid DevOps model. This resulted in consistent environments and a modern developer toolset. Together, these changes resulted in greater development velocity and a much smoother process from ticket to deploy.

WooConf 2017: Enterprise eCommerce with WooCommerce at the center - David Lockie

Angry Creative (UK)

When it comes to enterprise eCommerce, there are a number of different platform options. Option 1 is to choose a platform like Adobe or Salesforce, pay your license fees and hope you can drive the platform better than your competitors. Option 2 is to build your own platform by choosing best-of-breed components and services. This presentation runs through a case study of how we delivered an Option 2 solution for a B2B eCommerce customer, including: – why WordPress and WooCommerce are a great fit to play the central role in modern digital marketing and eCommerce platforms – infrastructure – software architecture (integrations, components, etc) – user experiences (e.g. personalisation) – data strategy (e.g. single customer view & business intelligence).

Introduction to Progressive Web Applications

Chris Love

Progressive Web Apps (PWAs) are websites that utilize modern web features to deliver native app-like experiences to users. The minimum requirements for a PWA are that it is served over HTTPS, includes a web app manifest, and registers a service worker. Service workers allow PWAs to work offline by handling fetch events and caching assets. While adding a PWA to a user's home screen can improve engagement, the true battleground is changing user perception of the capabilities of web apps versus native apps.

WistiaFest

The document discusses the effectiveness of different types of video marketing. It notes that on-site video can increase traffic by 200-300% and double time on site. Product, teaching, webinar, FAQ, and sales videos are recommended as having high returns. Product videos help customers learn if a product fits their needs. Teaching videos build expertise and empower customers. Webinars are easy to create and allow partnerships. FAQ videos provide fast answers. Sales videos create authentic connections. Testimonial, about us, and holiday videos generally have lower returns.
