This document summarizes the differences between RESTful and SOAP web services. It discusses how RESTful services use standard HTTP methods and URIs to manipulate resources, while SOAP uses XML and HTTP to define envelopes and encode requests and responses. The document also covers benefits of each approach, including RESTful services being simpler, having better performance and scalability, and being easier to implement in some languages and frameworks than SOAP.
Living in the Cloud: Hosting Data & Apps Using the Google Infrastructureguest517f2f
In the modern web, the user rules. Nearly every successful web app has to worry about scaling to an exponentially growing user base and giving those users multiple ways of interacting with their data. This talk will provide an overview of two technologies that aim to make web development and data portability easier: Google App Engine and the Google Data APIs.
This talk was presented by Pamela Fox, who works on the Google Developer Relations team as the Maps API Support Engineer.
Mobile-First Indexing and AMP - SMX Advanced 2018Alexis Sanders
Google is now using a mobile-first index based on how mobile devices would crawl the web.
In this session, you'll learn advanced techniques to perform an audit in a mobile-first world to ensure that content, links, metadata and structured data are compliant, regardless of how users access your site. You'll also learn tactics and techniques for maximizing the effectiveness of your site's AMP (accelerated mobile pages) content.
SearchLove London 2016 | Dom Woodman | How to Get Insight From Your LogsDistilled
In the SEO industry, we obsess on everything Google says, from John Mueller dropping a hint in a Webmaster Hangout, to the ranking data we spend £1000s to gather. Yet we ignore the data Google throws at us every day, the crawling data. For the longest time, site crawls, traffic data, and rankings have been the pillars of SEO data gathering. Log files should join them as something everyone is doing. We'll go through how to get everything set-up, look at some of the tools to make it easy and repeatable and go through the kinds of analysis you can do to get insights from the data.

•Key elements of a web page that can be extracted for research.
•Top discovery tools to quickly find optimized topics, titles and tags.
•How to use XPath and Screaming Frog Web Crawler to fuel research.
•New tools to analyze content and predict the big five characteristics.
•Sneak peek at some new tools for advanced search engine optimization.
Duplicate content continues to confuse many of us. Part of the problem is there are different types of duplicate content which may be treated differently by search engines. There are different ways to deal with this in your SEO and content marketing strategy. It's important to be careful when removing content to ensure you're not shooting yourself in the foot. Instead of remove, try to improve or regroup content which is being triggered for the same query class / cluster and may be diluting. Change the emphasis and make something of added value for users. Consider query and category agnostic filtering versus content which is considered at query run-time auction in search results.
This presentation will explain you in detail what are the important strategies for digital marketing like seo,on page seo,off page seo,smo,smm, how to create essential files that are required.
BrightonSEO, July 2021 - To better understand a website's content search engines developed Web Rendering Services and are now able to render pages more or less like a normal user. Those Web Rendering Services are strictly connected to other phases of the crawling-indexing-ranking pipeline - if a rendering fails, it may affect all of them. In this session Giacomo will guide you through the process of understanding why rendering could be a problem also for non-Javascript pages, how to manually debug page rendering, the difference between understanding WRSs' capabilities and debugging problems on a website, and eventually how to test pages at scale.

This slide show is from my presentation on what JSON and REST are. It aims to provide a number of talking points by comparing apples and oranges (JSON vs. XML and REST vs. web services).
Your visitors interact with content, not with your website. Content consistency is crucial to a successful user experience. Re-publishing is one option but it’s an inside-out action that relies on the authority controlling where the information goes. An API frees your data and the responsibility to where it is published and accessed. Mobile is a major consumer for your API but not every API is setup to handle the mass of requests coming from those devices. Learn how to mobile devices consume API’s with limited or low bandwidth and how to to tailor your API to be as efficient and effective as possible.

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.

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.

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.

HTTP verbs:
GET: Retrieves a resource
POST: Sends data to create a resource
PUT: Sends data to update a resource
DELETE: Destroys a resource
13. methods URI
POST /user/create
GET /user/show/1

POST /user
GET /user/1
RESTful
PUT /user/1
DELETE /user/1

OAuth
“An open protocol to allow secure API
authorisation in a simple and standard method
from desktop and web applications.”
