This presentation explains the new challenges to be resolved with a Microservices Architecture and how the WildFly Swarm container & OpenShift/Kubernetes can address some of the patterns like running a lightweight JavaEE container, discover and load balance the services, inject the configuration of the services.
Architecting for failure - Why are distributed systems hard?Markus Eisele
Devnexus 2017
As we architect our systems for greater demands, scale, uptime, and performance, the hardest thing to control becomes the environment in which we deploy and the subtle but crucial interactions between complicated systems. And microservices obviously are the way to go forward with those complicated systems. But what makes it so hard to build them? And why should you embrace failure instead of doing what we can do best: Preventing failure. This talk introduces you to the problem domain of a distributed system which consists of a couple of microservices. It shows how to build, deploy and orchestrate the chaos and introduces you to a couple of patterns to prevent and compensate failure.

How Class Data Sharing Can Speed up Your Jakarta EE Application StartupRudy De Busscher
Java Byte code is OS independent, which means that your application's startup takes more time than a native image. Using the Class Data Sharing functionality introduced in more recent versions of the JVM, you can prepare your application so that it will load very fast.
In this presentation, I'll go into more detail what Class Data Sharing is and the differences between the OpenJDK and OpenJ9 versions. With some Jakarta EE demo applications, you will see gains that you can achieve and reduce memory footprint a lot in Docker containers by sharing memory.
Deploying Elastic Java EE Microservices in the Cloud with DockerPayara
JavaOne 2015 tutorial describing how to build and deploy a micro services to Amazon Elastic Beanstalk with Docker and Payara Micro. All code is on GitHub
The world is moving from a model where data sits at rest, waiting for people to make requests of it, to where data is constantly moving and streams of data flow to and from devices with or without human interaction. Decisions need to be made based on these streams of data in real-time, models need to be updated, and intelligence needs to be gathered. In this context, our old-fashioned approach of CRUD REST APIs serving CRUD database calls just doesn't cut it. It's time we moved to a stream-centric view of the world.
The Great Consolidation - Entertainment Weekly Migration Case Study - SANDcam...Jon Peck
EW.com, the digital site for Entertainment Weekly and a top entertainment news site, is in the final stages of migrating from Vignette 6 CMS and 10 different WordPress blogs to a single unified platform built on Drupal 7. Join the primary Four Kitchens engineers on the project as we discuss the process, starting with discovery all the way through launch preparation.
Challenges include:
- Migrating close to 170,000 posts, 475,000 terms, 280,000 images into Drupal without spilling a drop
- Separating overloaded freeform tags into specific vocabularies and creative works
- Maintaining a high performance backend and frontend with multiple distributed caching layers
- Coordinating a distributed team across multiple continents
- Enforcing best practices, code quality and standards
- High speed integrations with an existing and complex advertising system
- Porting legacy, non-standard code and maintaining functional parity
We’ll also discuss:
- Development environments using unified Virtual Machines
- Custom Drupal distributions used across multiple in-house groups for different projects
- Promoting open-source culture in a commercial environment
- Deployment and cutover strategies
Messaging is the backbone of many top enterprises. It affords reliable, asynchronous data passing to achieve loosely coupled, highly scalable distributed systems. As enterprises large and small become more interconnected, demand for remote and limited devices to be integrated with enterprise systems is surging. Come see how the most widely used, open-source messaging broker, Apache ActiveMQ, fits nicely and how it supports polyglot messaging.

Microservices architecture has many benefits. But it comes at a cost. Running microservices and monitoring what’s going on is tedious. That’s why MicroProfile adopts monitoring as a first-class concept. In this session, learn how MicroProfile runtimes collect metrics and how to seamlessly collect them with tools like Prometheus and Grafana. Learn how MicroProfile makes it easy to connect information about interrelated service calls, how to gather the information and analyze system bottlenecks, how to deploy and scale MicroProfile applications with Kubernetes and how to react to their health status to detect and automatically recover from failures.
MariaDB started life as a database to host the Maria storage engine in 2009. Not long after its inception, the MySQL community went through yet another change in ownership, and it was deemed that MariaDB will be a complete database branch developed to extend MySQL, but with constant merging of upstream changes.
The goal of the MariaDB project is to ensure that everyone is part of the community, including employees of the major steering companies. MariaDB also features enhanced features, some of which are common with the Percona Performance Server. Most importantly, MariaDB is a drop-in replacement and is completely backward compatible with MySQL. In 2010, MariaDB released 5.1 in February, and 5.2 in November – two major releases in a span of one calendar year is a feat that was achieved!
DBAs and developers alike will gain an introduction to MariaDB, what is different with MySQL, how to make use of the feature enhancements, and more.

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).

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.
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.
