"How to create an efficient API.. with a business model?" by Nicolas GreniéTheFamily
A common mistake when discussing API business models is to think of the API first. But everyone should consider how an API will interact with a business model.
We will answer to the following questions:
What is an API? Which business model can you include in an API? How to use the canvas model to build a badass API?
Nicolas Grenié is a Hacker in Residence at 3scale living between Barcelona and San Francisco. He built his first website in 2000 using Microsoft Word, and since them did not stop learning about programming. Nicolas likes to try new languages all the time, so he has experience in PHP, Ruby and Node. When not working you have a good chance to find him hacking on side projects or enjoying a good craft beer. And of course, as he is French, frog and snails are part of his daily diet!

Big Data Day LA 2015 - Event Driven Architecture for Web Analytics by Peyman ...Data Con LA
As integrated web analytics evolves to both a service oriented and event based model, there will be higher emphasis on moving toward event based analytics. Business analytics is moving from purely counts of analytics to time-series, relationship and usage analytics. Examples of web analytics that can take advantage of this architecture are conversions analytics or cross channel marketing.
The advantage of storing raw event data is that you have maximum flexibility for analysis. For example, you can trace the sequence of pages that one person visited over the course of their session. You can’t do that if you’ve squashed all the events into e.g. counters. That sort of analysis is really important for some offline processing tasks, such as training a recommender system (“people who bought X also bought Y”, that sort of thing). For such use cases, it’s best to simply keep all the raw events, so that you can later feed them all into your shiny new machine learning system.
In this session we are going to elaborate on using Kafka, an Event Processing framework (e.g. Storm or Spark Streaming) and either Hadoop or EDW for building an Event Driven Architecture.
Boxcars and Cabooses: When One More XHR Is Too MuchPeter Chittum
RESTful APIs have simplified backend access providing clean URL-based resource representations using standard HTTP methods such as GET and POST. But growth in the number of these APIs can lead to inefficiencies: if an app needs to access many of these resources at once, performance can bog down and user experience can suffer, especially for mobile devices.
'Boxcarring' is the bundling together of multiple HTTP requests into a single request. For example, a client framework might abstract the transport layer and bundle multiple requests into a single call. On the server, a RESTful API must be surfaced to accept a POST to multiple resource representations in one request. This talk will demonstrate both client and server side examples of boxcar requests.
API and Platform Strategies to Win in Global and Local MarketsAxway
Learn why an API strategy is critical to business success in the business landscape from project, program, product, platform to ecosystems, and economy. Real examples of platform and API strategies will inspire you to implement a concrete plan across your organization.

Both API Gateways and Service Meshes offer similar features and capabilities but are each implemented on a different axis in your application’s data plane. Draw those capabilities in a Venn diagram, you’ll see a lot of overlap between the API Gateways and Service Meshes. This is NOT a talk about the overlap. This is a talk about the things outside the overlap and why they matter (#HereBeDragons). The talk focuses on three questions around North/South & East/West Traffic. This talk is for a senior developer/architect on where to best inject cross-cutting concerns around security, observability and resiliency enabled by API Gateways and Service Meshes.

Designing Usable APIs featuring Forrester Research, Inc.CA API Management
Deliver a Great Developer Experience (DX) as Part of an Effective API Strategy
Overview
Designing a great enterprise API is not easy. Exposing an interface is relatively simple but API designers have a great deal more to think about – business models, process context, transactional integrity, privacy concerns, data ownership… the list goes on.
For enterprise API designers, a clear focus on developer experience (DX) is often the best way to get things moving in the right direction. Creating an API that developers love to use will produce a wealth of benefits for any API program, such as:
Increasing API adoption rates
Reducing implementation costs
Ensuring the program is aligned with core business goals
Join this webinar with Ronnie Mitra of Layer 7 and guest speaker Randy Heffner of Forrester Research, Inc. to get practical tips on building APIs that will provide a great DX and truly contribute to your organization’s business success.
You Will Learn
What the term “well-designed API” means, in practical terms
Why developer experience matters and how it aligns with business goals
How to make rational design choices that will improve DX

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).

Then welcome to this PowSyBl workshop, hosted by Rte, the French Transmission System Operator (TSO)!
During the webinar, you will discover the PowSyBl ecosystem as well as handle and study an electrical network through an interactive Python notebook.
PowSyBl is an open source project hosted by LF Energy, which offers a comprehensive set of features for electrical grid modelling and simulation. Among other advanced features, PowSyBl provides:
- A fully editable and extendable library for grid component modelling;
- Visualization tools to display your network;
- Grid simulation tools, such as power flows, security analyses (with or without remedial actions) and sensitivity analyses;
The framework is mostly written in Java, with a Python binding so that Python developers can access PowSyBl functionalities as well.
What you will learn during the webinar:
- For beginners: discover PowSyBl's functionalities through a quick general presentation and the notebook, without needing any expert coding skills;
- For advanced developers: master the skills to efficiently apply PowSyBl functionalities to your real-world scenarios.
Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

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.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

4. “Data is becoming the new raw material of
business.” Chris Lynch and/or Craig Mundie
“Data really powers everything we do.” Jeff
Weiner
5. Good user interfaces are hard to build
You often need to move data around
Speed can be critical
Multiple parties may need access
6. APIs make this happen
- the interfaces to data that
deliver its value
7. Examples
Xignite’s realtime MarketData –
over 500 Streams
Aetna Carepass Restful API to
Read/Write patient data
Realtime fleet management
& Long term analytics
Realtime pricing in Retail
15. Q1: What am I Exposing?
What?
Single Entries,
Dumps, Streams Raw
Insight
Projections, Alerts,
Aggregations
Control
Settings, Params,
Config, Schemas
27. Key Take-away:
Your data is a product: think
hard about packaging,
distribution (APIs)
28. Implications
• Answer the four questions
• This will determine your likely benefits and pain
points
• Short term hacks around these pain points will
probably kill the value of what you are doing
• There is a lot of value to created!
29. Go forth and unleash your data!
