How to remove Headers from the beginning of the files
How to suppress Optional Empty Elements
How to suppress Empty Lines at the end of the file

How to suppress Empty Lines everywhere (end or middle)?
What if we don’t want to remove Headers but… in fact we want to deal
with Headers and Trailers?
Do I need to always create a custom pipeline for dealing with Flat-
Files? Or it is possible to create a Generic Pipeline?
My positional flat-file contains data that does not match the length
expected and does not spaces. How can I handle that?

You're organised, you love spreadsheets, you're a great cheerleader, you handle a backlog with superhero skills, and now you're faced with managing a Drupal project and everything just feels foreign. It's not you, it's Drupal. The mix of site building, front end development, backend development, and over 20,000 contributed modules makes project management for Drupal exceptionally frustrating for people who've not worked with Drupal before. This session will cover: - the basic Drupal development workflow (from a developer's perspective, but without using developer jargon) writing useful tickets which developers can accomplish - estimation tips for multi-discipline tickets (design / back end / front end) - ideal team structures -- and what to do if you can't get them Updated from DrupalCamp London to include the truisms I've learned about being a first-time project manager.

Some folks are saying eZ Platform will be even more Open Source than eZ Publish was. This starts with sharing and collaborating all together on the development of it. Let’s deep dive all together in the backlog of eZ Platform and see how, upfront coding, we can work together on this backlog definition to build a kick ass eZ Platform for all the ecosystem. This session will visit the eZ roadmap, an occasion for anyone interested in contributing to discuss it, improve it or even adjust it!

ORM or Stored Procedures? Code First or Database First? Ad-Hoc Queries? Impedance Mismatch? If you're a developer or you are a DBA working with developers you have heard all this terms at least once in your life…and usually in the middle of a strong discussion, debating about one or the other. Well, thanks to StackOverflow's Dapper, all these fights are finished. Dapper is a blazing fast microORM that allows developers to map SQL queries to classes automatically, leaving (and encouraging) the usage of stored procedures, parameterized statements and all the good stuff that SQL Server offers (JSON and TVP are supported too!) In this session I'll show how to use Dapper in your projects from the very basis to some more complex usages that will help you to create *really fast* applications without the burden of huge and complex ORMs. The days of Impedance Mismatch are finally over!

This talk discusses standards evolution, HTML5 and CSS3 in detail. Starting with the history of HTML and CSS, it goes on to show how HTML5 and CSS3 were developed, why they were necessary, the problems they aim to solve, what the main new features are and why they are so useful, and how we can start using these features in the real world, right now. It also provides advice for the discerning web standards gentleman.

Presented at Keep Austin Agile 2016: How to we make documentation "Agile", given the Agile Manifesto? How do you get into the Definition of Done? What does "DocOps" mean, in the simplest and broadest terms? What should your requirements be for a DocOps transformation, and how do you find a tool stack that fits them? Where do you start, and how do you escape a waterfall reengineering of your legacy docs?

The only constant in software development is CHANGE. Every piece of software that has been developed and shipped to a customer will be changed numerous times during it's life cycle. Depending on how well the code is designed, it is more or less easy to implement changes. MVC, which is an acronym for Model - View - Controller is no new concept. In fact this design paradigm was created by Xerox in the 80's, and it is becoming THE recommended model for designing frameworks - especially on the web. The session will give an overview of design pattern in general and MVC in particular. We will show, how to use the MVC design paradigm in an XPages application and demonstrate, how easy it is to implement changes. Need to read/write your data from/to an XML file instead of using a Notes View. MVC makes software maintenance easy as 1-2-3

Most will agree that a business process can be a workflow. But, what do people think of when running workflows in the Cloud and in particular Azure or Microsoft Cloud. Because, Microsoft Azure and Cloud offer us several options to build them: No-code/low-code, and a code option with Power Automate, Logic Apps, and Durable Functions? In this session, we'll explore each and focus on building workflows with them. Furthermore, we'll see the differences and how each could potentially, complement the other.

I'm excited to share my latest predictions on how AI, robotics, and other technological advancements will reshape industries in the coming years. The slides explore the exponential growth of computational power, the future of AI and robotics, and their profound impact on various sectors. Why this matters: The success of new products and investments hinges on precise timing and foresight into emerging categories. This deck equips founders, VCs, and industry leaders with insights to align future products with upcoming tech developments. These insights enhance the ability to forecast industry trends, improve market timing, and predict competitor actions. Highlights: ▪ Exponential Growth in Compute: How $1000 will soon buy the computational power of a human brain ▪ Scaling of AI Models: The journey towards beyond human-scale models and intelligent edge computing ▪ Transformative Technologies: From advanced robotics and brain interfaces to automated healthcare and beyond ▪ Future of Work: How automation will redefine jobs and economic structures by 2040 With so many predictions presented here, some will inevitably be wrong or mistimed, especially with potential external disruptions. For instance, a conflict in Taiwan could severely impact global semiconductor production, affecting compute costs and related advancements. Nonetheless, these slides are intended to guide intuition on future technological trends.

ScyllaDB has the potential to deliver impressive performance and scalability. The better you understand how it works, the more you can squeeze out of it. But before you squeeze, make sure you know what to monitor! Watch our experienced Postgres developer work through monitoring and performance strategies that help him understand what mistakes he’s made moving to NoSQL. And learn with him as our database performance expert offers friendly guidance on how to use monitoring and performance tuning to get his sample Rust application on the right track. This webinar focuses on using monitoring and performance tuning to discover and correct mistakes that commonly occur when developers move from SQL to NoSQL. For example: - Common issues getting up and running with the monitoring stack - Using the CQL optimizations dashboard - Common issues causing high latency in a node - Common issues causing replica imbalance - What a healthy system looks like in terms of memory - Key metrics to keep an eye on This isn’t “Death-by-Powerpoint.” We’ll walk through problems encountered while migrating a real application from Postgres to ScyllaDB – and try to fix them live as well.

The standard Salesforce Approval process can be limiting in many ways, especially in complex scenarios. What if there was a way to implement very flexible approvals where one can use Apex code to make data updates in unrelated records, dynamically generate next steps details, and compute assignees on the fly? And still use UI-based configurations to implement concrete approval processes. In this session, we will share ideas behind such a solution and show a few lines of code to get you started.

As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other? Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.

XML schemas define the data structure for all XML business documents that you exchange within and across organizations by using BizTalk. BizTalk also requires schemas in order to have an XML representation of the flat file messages that it will be processing. BizTalk Schemas BizTalk can use schemas provided by trading partners or created by using other third-party schema creation tools and applications. BizTalk includes tools for creating (or modifying) schemas, including schemas to be used for flat file processing. Generally speaking, it is a good idea to get in the habit of creating your schemas by using the BizTalk Editor, which will be discussed in the next lesson. The XML schema defines: Elements and attributes, which are the building blocks of a schema. Data types that appear in document instances, including simple and complex data types. Simple data types, which are data types that contain data and cannot be nested. Examples of simple data types include xs:string, xs:int, and xs:long. Elements or attributes can be simple data types. Complex data types. Complex data types can contain both data and nested data. For example, in the slide for this section, the Item element is a complex type because it contains other elements. Only elements can be complex data types; an attribute must be associated with one, and only one, element. Namespace declarations and version information. The ordering of tags in the document. Fields that are mandatory or that may occur multiple times in a single document.
