The role of a human resources employee can be hard work when it comes to filtering hundreds or thousands of job applications. Often, the cover letters are submitted in unstructured formats, making data organization and identification of interesting job applications difficult. In this session, we will share a look behind the scenes of the award-winning HR Assistant application, which uses a combination of IBM Bluemix, Watson and a Cloudant database to improve the recruitment process. See how we integrate these different technologies and display the content graphically using XPages, along with how the development progressed and the challenges we faced.
The Problem is Data: Gwen Shapira, Confluent, Serverless NYC 2018iguazio
Real-world architectures are different from code samples and small examples, and as we build more complex and mature Serverless architectures, we often encounter unexpected challenges.
This talk will start by discussing the challenges involved in building data processing architectures using stateless infrastructures. We'll review patterns from event-driven architectures, see how they apply to Serverless architectures and propose practical solutions to common pain-points.

The Serverless Native Mindset: Ben Kehoe, iRobot, Serverless NYC 2018iguazio
Serverless architecture is a fantastic enabler for lean teams, smaller bills, and more robust systems, but its fundamental advantage is that it allows your organization to focus on creating business value, not solving technology problems. However, gaining this advantage involves giving up control over your technology stack in favor of managed services, and this organizational aspect is more difficult than any of the technological hurdles faced by serverless developers. In this talk, I'll explain how to adopt a mindset that embraces serverless and why, in spite of these pitfalls, serverless architecture is absolutely worth the effort.

Socialytics: Accelerating IBM Connections Adoption with Watson AnalyticsFemke Goedhart
Session delivered at IBM Connect 2017 on Feb 21st 2017 by Femke Goedhart & Franz Walder - panagenda
Abstract: Social adoption is a challenge for many companies. What is the most effective utilization of the environment? Who is using which resources, what in the environment is dormant or orphaned? Where should efforts focus in order to improve adoption? All of these questions can be difficult to answer and there is no "one size fits all" solution as each organization has their own unique needs. Join Femke Goedhart and Franz Walder and learn how to tackle this topic using IBM Connections and Watson. Starting out with IBM Bluemix Data Connect to collect and combine data from relevant sources, they use the cognitive power of IBM Watson Analytics to answer those tricky questions and provide solutions to real-world adoption challenges.
DEV-1550: Why Java 8? Or, What's a Lambda? – IBM Connect 2017panagenda
When Java 8 hit the streets, a lot of people were either excited or confused about the two biggest language changes that were introduced: lambdas and streams. While these two things might seem to be “just another syntax” for doing what we can already do, it turns out that these two programming techniques are very powerful because of the WAY they work. Even if you’re not using Java 8 just yet, this session will show you the potential of using these new language features.

Presentation: Engage.ug March 2015 by Peter Presnell
Many organizations are now investing in the development of web interfaces for their existing (and new) Notes/Domino applications. Now is the perfect time to start paying down on the technical debt we have accumulated to ensure that we don’t pass on an unsustainable software development deficit to those that will follow. With this presentation we will challenge the notion that trickle down development based on XPages is the next logical step in that evolution. While XPages still has a place in the world of modern Domino development we will explore new approaches and alternative technologies that have the potential to deliver a brighter prosperous.

Tear It Down, Build It Back Up: Empowering Developers with Amazon CloudFormationJames Andrew Vaughn
As a product grows, and the infrastructure becomes more complex, the Operations team traditionally shoulders the burden of maintaining this infrastructure while deploying code from Software Engineers. Code is sometimes given to Operations with little to no information regarding how it should run or what the criteria for successful deployment is. This is not due to lack of caring, Software Engineers often lack the context themselves to provide production deployment instructions. To Software Engineers, production can be like a walled off city, filled with pathways and rooms not to be explored, guarded by Operations.
This presentation aims to provide a solution to this problem. We will address how the traditional separation of Operations and Software Engineers slows innovation, and redefine their relationship -- blending responsibilities. We will examine the transition of two real teams, an Operations team and Engineering team, from complete isolation, to closer environments through virtual machines, to one cloud environment shared by all and managed with CloudFormation.

At Engage 2019 I did a session about a not so objective view on frontend development, where I compared the big 3 frontend technologies: Angular, ReactJs and VueJS.
Now it's 2024: Let me explain my latest view on these frameworks.
Is Angular still my preferred frontend technology?
Are there new kids on the block?
Let's discuss the good, bad and the ugly of each frontend technology.
Engage 2020: Hello are you listening, There is stream for everythingFrank van der Linden
The world is changing in a event driven world
Event driven architecture is not a new technology. IBM MQ is already 25 years old.
The popularity is increasing, because it is a robust, decoupled way to exchange data.
Today there are new popular 'new kids on the block'. Kafka is one of them and gets lots of attention also in the enterprise.
The principle however are still the same, called Pub Sub principle.
HCL will add to the App Dev pack the possibility to consume and produce to a broker/stream.
There are frameworks who helps you to focus on the business logic.
In this session I will explain this principle and show you that is not that difficult to make use of it. Connect your existing code to a service bus or queue, producing and consuming.
Today almost every product has an API, to integrate in other products or to made the data available to the outside world. Most API’s are using traditional patterns and technology. With the rise of Angular, React and other modern frameworks there is a need for non blocking API’s. Meet Reactive streams, like Spring Webflux, to super charge your API.
In this session I will tell about and show you Reactive API’s and more

"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.
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).
Speakers:

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
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.
PHP Frameworks: I want to break free (IPC Berlin 2024)Ralf Eggert

2. Me
• Freelance Full stack Java developer
• Owner of elstar IT
• Curious of new technology
• IBM Champion 2013, 2014 and 2017
• Run (mountain) marathons
3. How do we proceed
• HR Assistant
• Running it on IBM BlueMix
• Store it in Cloudant
• Analyse it with IBM Watson
• Show it with Charts
• Lessons learned
7. Frédéric Dehédin
• At the time of the project: Senior Application developer
at Belsoft Collaboration AG

8. Facts
• Winner of the ICS Developer Competition 2016
• Runs on the XSP runtime on IBM BlueMix
• Store all the data in Cloudant
• Analyse jobs and job applications with IBM Watson
• Backend is pure Java, no Java Notes objects
9. Add ons
• Cloudant connector OSGi plugin
• Take out the security issue
• Storing in and retrieving from Cloudant. JSON <—> POJO
• Can be accessed from Java backend.
• Do the heavy lifting. Don't reinvent the wheel.
10. Add ons
• Jackson Mapper OSGi plugin
• Take out the security issue
• Used with the IBM Watson services
• Conversion of JSON to POJO
• Makes @Annotations available in Java back end
19. What is Cloudant
• It is the cloud version of CouchDb
• It is document based
• CouchDb is created by Damien Katz
• Cloudant is bought by IBM
• Is like MongoDb or NSF a NoSQL datastore
20. What is Cloudant
• Data stored as JSON
• View and Search ‘formula’ defined in javascript
• Replication
• Tasks
• Build in API
• No annoying limitations
23. • It is JSON everywhere.
• _rev and _id are reserved parameters.
• doc{}, is the actual data from application
Document
24. Attachment @ Cloudant
• Stored as base64 encoded String
• Can be as standalone
• Or as part of Document (we choose this way)
• Store id as attachmentId, so it can be retrieved when needed
31. Services we used
• Tone analyser, to get the tone of the text
• Personality Insight, to determine the personality of the job applicant
• AlchemyLanguage, to get the keywords from the Job and Job
application
35. Tone analyser
• Post the data to IBM Watson service (1)
• Convert the response back to Java class (2)
1
2
36. Tone analyser
• ToneAnalyzerResponse holds the results
• Use @annotations from Jackson to map
JSON to properties
• Result is the source of the charts
44. Lessons learned
• No Single Sign On service on all datacenters
• Manifest yaml file and GIT are not an happy couple
• API’s are not consistent across Watson services
• Cloudant is a very reliable, flexible and fast NoSQL datastore
• IBM Watson services are really powerful.
45. Lessons learned
• There is no RichText on the web, it is HTML
• Handling attachments on Cloudant was a challenge. Took some time get a
robust solution.
• BTW the way, we won the competition ;-)
