I was Team Lead and Chief Architect of IBM VisualAge Smalltalk from 1997 to 2007. In February 2007, I joined Instantiations to lead the VA Smalltalk development team. I am currently the CTO and Principal Smalltalk Architect focusing on future product architecture and development. I live in Durham, NC and work in Raleigh, NC.
Choosing a communication platform is an important decision. From simple two-way communication to complex multi-node architectures, ZeroMQ, the embeddable networking library, helps provide a safe, fast and reliable communication medium.
This webinar will give you an overview of the ZeroMQ architecture, explaining the advantages and exploring usage patterns and cross-platform capabilities. We'll also go through examples of the patterns using different languages, including C++, Swift, Python and C.
Since the 1980s, Motif has been a popular toolkit for developing graphical desktop applications. Despite its age, legacy applications written using the Motif toolkit are still in production. There are a number of reasons to migrate these applications to newer platforms. Porting Motif applications to the Qt framework can achieve many of the benefits without requiring a total rewrite. In this webinar we'll look at scenarios, strategies, and general advice for porting Motif applications to Qt, based on the wide experience ICS has gained over many Motif to Qt conversion projects.

Description
Abstract: Although recent improvements of the Cog VM performance made it one of the fastest available Smalltalk virtual machine, the overhead compared to optimized C code remains important. Efficient industrial object oriented virtual machine, such as Javascript V8's engine for Google Chrome and Oracle Java Hotspot can reach on many benchs the performance of optimized C code thanks to adaptive optimizations performed their JIT compilers. The VM becomes then cleverer, and after executing numerous times the same portion of codes, it stops the code execution, looks at what it is doing and recompiles critical portion of codes in code faster to run based on the current environment and previous executions.
Bio: Clément Béra and Eliot Miranda has been working together on Cog's JIT performance for the last year. Clément Béra is a young engineer and has been working in the Pharo team for the past two years. Eliot Miranda is a Smalltalk VM expert who, among others, has implemented Cog's JIT and the Spur Memory Manager for Cog.
Continuous Delivery the hard way with KubernetesLuke Marsden
This talk shows three increasingly advanced levels of continuous delivery with Kubernetes and GitLab (as an example), arguing for a continuous delivery architecture which has an explicit _Release Manager_ component. We then propose Flux, the open source project which powers the _Deploy_ feature of Weave Cloud, as an implementation of that idea. This approach is the precursor to GitOps.

Continuous Delivery (CD) with Kubernetes
- How to build a CI/CD pipeline when using Kubernetes
- Hands on: Build a CI/CD pipeline with Kubernetes & Weave Cloud
Compilers have been improving programmer productivity ever since IBM produced the first FORTRAN compiler in 1957. Today, we mostly take them for granted but even after more than 60 years, compiler researchers and practitioners continue to push the boundaries for what compilers can achieve as well as how easy it is to leverage the sophisticated code bases that encapsulate those six decades of learning in this field. In this talk, I want to highlight how industry trends like the migration to cloud infrastructures and data centers as well as the rise of flexibly licensed open source projects like LLVM and Eclipse OMR are paving the way towards even more effective and powerful compilation infrastructures than have ever existed: compilers with the opportunity to contribute to programmer productivity in even more ways than simply better hardware instruction sequences, and with simpler APIs so they can be readily used in scenarios where even today's most amazing Just In Time compilers are not really practical.

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:
Bob Boule

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!
