PHP Frameworks: I want to break free (IPC Berlin 2024)Ralf Eggert
In this presentation, we examine the challenges and limitations of relying too heavily on PHP frameworks in web development. We discuss the history of PHP and its frameworks to understand how this dependence has evolved. The focus will be on providing concrete tips and strategies to reduce reliance on these frameworks, based on real-world examples and practical considerations. The goal is to equip developers with the skills and knowledge to create more flexible and future-proof web applications. We'll explore the importance of maintaining autonomy in a rapidly changing tech landscape and how to make informed decisions in PHP development.
This talk is aimed at encouraging a more independent approach to using PHP frameworks, moving towards a more flexible and future-proof approach to PHP development.
The Art of the Pitch: WordPress Relationships and SalesLaura Byrne
Clients don’t know what they don’t know. What web solutions are right for them? How does WordPress come into the picture? How do you make sure you understand scope and timeline? What do you do if sometime changes?
All these questions and more will be explored as we talk about matching clients’ needs with what your agency offers without pulling teeth or pulling your hair out. Practical tips, and strategies for successful relationship building that leads to closing the deal.

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. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle.
Gopinath Rebala
Gopinath Rebala is the CTO of OpsMx, where he has overall responsibility for the machine learning and data processing architectures for Secure Software Delivery. Gopi also has a strong connection with our customers, leading design and architecture for strategic implementations. Gopi is a frequent speaker and well-known leader in continuous delivery and integrating security into software delivery.
A tale of scale & speed: How the US Navy is enabling software delivery from l...sonjaschweigert1
Rapid and secure feature delivery is a goal across every application team and every branch of the DoD. The Navy’s DevSecOps platform, Party Barge, has achieved:
- Reduction in onboarding time from 5 weeks to 1 day
- Improved developer experience and productivity through actionable findings and reduction of false positives
- Maintenance of superior security standards and inherent policy enforcement with Authorization to Operate (ATO)
Development teams can ship efficiently and ensure applications are cyber ready for Navy Authorizing Officials (AOs). In this webinar, Sigma Defense and Anchore will give attendees a look behind the scenes and demo secure pipeline automation and security artifacts that speed up application ATO and time to production.
We will cover:
- How to remove silos in DevSecOps
- How to build efficient development pipeline roles and component templates
- How to deliver security artifacts that matter for ATO’s (SBOMs, vulnerability reports, and policy evidence)
- How to streamline operations with automated policy checks on container images
Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

Editor's Notes
Formally launched in Aug 2010,Just over a year ago This was after about a 10 month beta period, filled with presentations across campus to high level leadership to garner support, awareness, understanding, buy in
Engagement / Curation, where a person logs in and actually edits or contributes information online…in this case, it would info about themselves (on their own profile) one big benefit of the Profiles product is automatic pre-population of researcher profiles with demog and publication data so when folks log in, they would likely see quite a bit of information already there – not like starting from a blank page
PrintOnlineSweepstakes – giving away an iPad for adding a Narrative
Ucsf.edu - the main ucsf web property - getting over half a million page views a month News Article on the home page
Buy in from the Exe VCSent an email announcing UCSF Profiles to 8000 people across campus
Created a direct mail piece that was sent to everyone in the system who had a profile – at the time about 2500 individuals -- overview -- sweepstakes
Got on the agenda of UCSF Annual Faculty Development day, presented at workshops and had demos during lunch
News link on the home page of the UCSF School of Medicine web site – the largest of the 4 schools Plus the School of Med sends out a newsletter to faculty, staff and other academics – with a plug announcing the product
Tracked the traffic back with Google analytics, staggered the various promotions over time to see if we could see individual effects of each promotion
And here’s what we saw .. By far the biggest impact was the Email from the Exec VC for Research
And we were happy to see sustained traffic 5 months after that initial 3 week period where the avg number of visits per weekday doubled
BUT …. Traffic definitely does not equal engagement … The red line shows the number of contributors against the traffic stats
Plotting the number of edited profiles over a longer period of time showed a nice steep adoption rate that levels off
In more detail, looking at specific behavior of editing your own profile – people tended to do more than the minimum required for that sweepstakes entry --
But we wanted and did more!
We are on a mission to make UCSF Profiles ubiquitous across campus
We've made these changes to our profile pages:Improved headingsImproved page titleAdded more external links to alternate user profilesFacilitated addition of more keyword-rich narrative textAdded semantic microformats data
1000 visits per day on weekdays Web analytics help us evaluate how the site is being used, find gaps, and measure improvements.We look at pages (home, search results, profiles), audiences (on-campus, off-campus), referrers (Google, UCSF.edu, etc.), interactions (bounce rate, page depth).
Used a lot of strategies over time, continue to work through new ones to again, make it ubiquitous
