Open source software is so much more than shared tools we use to get ahead in business. Our communities are a unique and powerful example of social and intellectual collaboration – and yet, we still hone our skills by writing our own alarm clock apps? This session will take the notion of a Contributor to the next level by demonstrating how to contribute to open source projects that serve the public good. We will review ways to find and contribute to open source projects with a focus on improving ourselves through work that matters. - Can we make a difference? - Principles of Open Source, Reconsidered - Finding Projects & Contributing Promote projects, grow community, contribute code, documentation, reviews, suggestions, support

Superheroes are humans with extraordinary abilities or skills who are motivated to save the world. Computer programmers are humans with extraordinary skills... see where we're going here? Computing is one of the most powerful ways we can make the world a better place. This talk shows examples of projects that are superhero-like in their impact, and ways you can use computing to improve the world, too.

How to Battle Bad Reviews

Glassdoor

Biology, medicine, physics, astrophysics, chemistry: all these scientific domains need to process large amount of data with more and more complex software systems. For achieving reproducible science, there are several challenges ahead involving multidisciplinary collaboration and socio-technical innovation with software at the center of the problem. Despite the availability of data and code, several studies report that the same data analyzed with different software can lead to different results. I am seeing this problem as a manifestation of deep software variability: many factors (operating system, third-party libraries, versions, workloads, compile-time options and flags, etc.) themselves subject to variability can alter the results, up to the point it can dramatically change the conclusions of some scientific studies. In this keynote, I argue that deep software variability is a threat and also an opportunity for reproducible science. I first outline some works about (deep) software variability, reporting on preliminary evidence of complex interactions between variability layers. I then link the ongoing works on variability modelling and deep software variability in the quest for reproducible science.

Develop & Deploy cloud-native apps as resilient Microservices Architectures

Red Hat Developers

You’ve been hearing about Microservices for months, and probably have taken a look about 12-factor and cloud-native apps too. But there’s a myriad of different frameworks and tools that you can use to craft your software and join the pieces together into a Microservices Architecture. You want to use the best tool for the job, and you need a hassle-free DevOps pipeline to orchestrate and deploy all of them. Burr explains how you can combine a lot of different technologies and tools that will open your eyes for the huge possibilities that Microservices can enable you to achieve. Have it all: containers, Docker, Vert.x, Wildfly Swarm, Spring Boot, NodeJS, .NET, OpenShift, Jenkins, Kubernetes and perhaps much more.

Daniel Bryant

Two years ago at Devoxx UK we talked about DevOps, what it was, why it was important and how to get started. Boy, was it scary. Now we’re wiser. More battle-scarred. The large scale of the challenge for application writers exploiting cloud and DevOps is clearer, but so is the path forward. Understanding the DevOps approach is important, but equally you must understand specific deployment technologies, security issues, operational reliability, and how to drive organisational transformation. Whether creating simple applications or sophisticated microservice architectures many of the challenges are the same. Join us to learn how you can apply this within your team and company.

Respond to Discussion minimum 150 WordsThroughout my life I have.docx

ronak56

Respond to Discussion minimum 150 Words Throughout my life I haven’t had to work with any other word processing programs other than Microsoft Word. While reading this weeks discussion requirements I was boggled since I had never heard of other word processing software programs. After doing some research I found an article that summed up the differences between MS Word, StarOffice, and Corel WordPerfect. We are all aware of the ruler bar we use and would be useless without it. Well, MS Word and StarOffice are use it by default but WordPerfect does not. Also, StarOffice uses the left side of the screen for some of their shortcuts. All three programs have the luxury of automatic underlining; the only downfall with StarOffice is that sometimes it doesn’t recognize some common words and underlines them as incorrect words. Another downfall with StarOffice is that the help systems are not useable and comprehensive (Lowe). Throughout organizations, some have chosen to use different Word processing programs and there are various reasons that they make this decision. First of all the three different programs have different file formats. When converting formats WordPerfect is unable to convert to MS Word format and vice versa. StarOffice on the other hand is able to read and write to MS Word but is only able to read to WordPerfect. A disadvantage to some companies would be the inability to convert their files with other companies software programs. I believe that being able to work with different companies is highly important. If you are unable to share important documents it makes it more difficult to create the positive relationships between companies. Lowe, S. (n.d.). Choose the right word processor: WordPerfect, StarOffice Writer, or Word XP - TechRepublic. Retrieved August 18, 2016, from http://www.techrepublic.com/article/choose-the-right-word-processor-wordperfect-staroffice-writer-or-word-xp/ -Kathy Respond to Discussion minimum 150 Words Like most people, Microsoft Word is the software that I am most familiar and comfortable with. However I have used a few other Word alternatives such as OpenOffice and Google Docs. For basic documents, I found OpenOffice was very similar to Word and also provides you with spreadsheet and powerpoint options as well. OpenOffice is a free software however I still prefer Microsoft Word. Word has many more advanced options and truly has a user friendly design. I think with some improvement Google Docs could pose more competition to Word. Similar to Word’s SkyDrive, Google Drive allows you to access your documents from any device. I think one of the biggest benefits to Google Docs is not having to download a software. Google Docs allows you to create your documents right from the web browser. However, Google Docs also just does not have as many great options as Word. I think the biggest disadvantage an organization would face in choosing another software over Word, is the ability of their users to use that software ...

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.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdf

Paige Cruz

Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack. While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack. I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:
