July OpenNTF Webinar - HCL Presents Keep, a new API for DominoHoward Greenberg
In 2019 the HCL Labs reimagined how a REST API for Domino should look like. The initial prototype was shared with selected customers and partner. Based on the feedback, Project KEEP will ship together with Domino.
KEEP allows applications to interact with Domino servers using simple HTTP calls directly from a browser, desktop or mobile app, or with a application server in the middle. To make this API accessible to a large audience open standards like OpenAPI or JWT were chosen over propriety implementations.
This session will introduce KEEP and the design principles and use cases. Data security and ease of use will be highlighted. Warm up your Postman clients and curl command lines and follow along!
The presenters for this session will be Stephan Wissel and Paul Withers from HCL.
Composer tools and frameworks for drupal.pptPromet Source
Composer is the de-facto php dependency management tool of the future. An ever-increasing number of useful open-source libraries are available for easy use via Packagist, the standard repository manager for Composer. As more and more Drupal contrib modules begin to depend on external libraries from Packagist, the motivation to use Composer to manage grows stronger; since Drupal 8 Core, and Drush 7 are now also using Composer to manage dependencies, the best way to insure that all of the requirements are resolved correctly is to manage everything from a top-level project composer.json file.
Behavioral driven development with BehatPromet Source
This workshop helps developers to get started with the process of behavior driven development (BDD) in PHP using the Behat toolkit with Drupal specific extensions in order to align technical testing with business expectations when using Drupal as a development platform.

August Webinar - Water Cooler Talks: A Look into a Developer's Workbench
OpenNTF presents Water Cooler Talks, an irregular new series of webinars to provide a stage for individuals sharing their stories, experiences and best practices with their peers.
This month's topic is all about developers' workbenches. As developers we all have tools and routines we use to develop, collaborate and test our applications. We have experienced lots of issues and made mistakes and have a workflow that does the job, but may not be ideal. Are there better ways to do our jobs? Come learn from your fellow developers in this webinar that looks at the typical toolbox and workflow routines of several OpenNTF Board members and how they develop apps, manage tasks, track bugs, handle versioning and more.
Howard Greenberg develops Notes/Domino/XPages applications for a variety of clients. Come learn how he uses source control in Domino Designer along with SourceTree and BitBucket to collaborate with his clients and maintain a history of all changes.
Jesse Gallagher develops XPages and webapp projects that target Domino. He will present his development environment and discuss using Maven and Jenkins to automate builds and delivery.
Serdar Basegmez utilizes Domino to create RESTful APIs for his clients. He will present his development environment and share some tips on Eclipse configuration, deployment and testing Domino plugins.

August OpenNTF Webinar - Git and GitHub ExplainedHoward Greenberg
When OpenNTF began in 2001, source control was little known and sharing of code via the cloud was limited. Fast forward 20 years and GitHub is the dominant sharing site and git the standard technology for source control.
In this webinar Paul Withers and Jesse Gallagher will:
Demystify git
Explain Branching
Show what makes a high quality repository
How to take advantage of GitHub’s broad functionality
Get that coveted "Verified" badge
Go from source control zero to GitHub hero!
Alfresco DevCon 2018 - Embedding Pentaho dashboards into an Alfresco ADF appl...Francesco Corti
The integration between Alfresco and Pentaho exists since 2012, starting with a Community project (named A.A.A.R.) and continues today with dozens of successful installations and projects.
As a lot of developers know, Pentaho is an Open Source Business Intelligence platform, extremely flexible to develop your own reports, dashboards and analytics in general. Less developers know that Pentaho is also very easy to integrate with third-party applications. All of this, thanks to a powerful API and a clever use of a RequireJS (http://requirejs.org/) JavaScript file and module loader.
In this talk Francesco (inventor of the A.A.A.R. before and Alflytics - http://fcorti.com/alflytics/ today) and Pedro (VP Of Engineering for Pentaho Data Integration and Business Analytics Platform at Hitachi Vantara) will show in practice how to include all the Pentaho Dashboards into a generic ADF application, using some ADF Components that will be able to login, logout and show Pentaho resources.

There are a lot of obvious benefits to using version control for your projects, but there are a lot of non obvious benefits too. In this SlideShare, learn how to create an industrial grade version control workflow using Git and automatic testing. Topics include:
- How to Use Git Branches: Instead of having all of the developers work on the same “master” branch, you can have developers work on separate branches that can be created per developer, per feature, or even per ticket in your project management system.
- How to Do Performance Testing: Instead of crossing your fingers when you site gets a lot of traffic, be sure that your site can handle the traffic by doing performance testing on each deployment that you do.
- How to Do Cross Browser Testing: Instead of firing up a bunch of Virtual Machines to test different browsers and devices, set up an automatic script so that every time you are looking to do a deploy you get a bunch of screenshots to review.
- How to Do Visual Regression Testing: If you are pushing a change that shouldn’t effect the front end of the site, wouldn’t it be nice to verify that? Learn how to visually compare a “before” and “after” version of your site to see where (if anywhere) visual changes happen.
- How to Notify You Of Deployments: Instead of wondering if code has been deployed, learn how to integrate your workflow with chat solutions like Hipchat/Slack or more traditional solutions like SMS or Email.
If you are a developer or manage developers on web projects, this session will help you learn how to level up your workflow and do a lot of really powerful testing on your project every time you do a commit.
Test Coverage for Your WP REST API ProjectPantheon
Are you writing full test coverage for your endpoints as you go? If not, you absolutely need to be, for two primary reasons: security and reliability. If you aren’t writing test coverage for your endpoints, sorry Charlie—your endpoints are probably insecure, and probably behave unexpectedly for clients.
This tutorial is everything you need to get started.
Why Your Site is Slow: Performance Answers for Your ClientsPantheon
Surface-level technical issues like slow queries and redundant JavaScript files are often blamed when a site is slow, although there are numerous factors that can affect performance. In practice, web teams need to ask “why” repeatedly in order to get to the root cause. This presentation will dive into the many answers to this question and look for the root causes of slow sites.
A fast website is a good website, but making a website fast takes work. This session of couch coding will discuss the tips & tricks necessary to build the feeds & speeds into your website to make it soar.
WP or Drupal (or both): A Framework for Client CMS Decisions Pantheon
WordPress and Drupal are powerful open source tools. Many agencies specialize in one or the other, but being able to effectively use both can be a tremendous strategic benefit. In this webinar we’ll discuss how to deploy both WordPress and Drupal effectively as an agency.
The Building Blocks of QuestDB, a Time Series Databasejavier ramirez
Talk Delivered at Valencia Codes Meetup 2024-06.
Traditionally, databases have treated timestamps just as another data type. However, when performing real-time analytics, timestamps should be first class citizens and we need rich time semantics to get the most out of our data. We also need to deal with ever growing datasets while keeping performant, which is as fun as it sounds.
It is no wonder time-series databases are now more popular than ever before. Join me in this session to learn about the internal architecture and building blocks of QuestDB, an open source time-series database designed for speed. We will also review a history of some of the changes we have gone over the past two years to deal with late and unordered data, non-blocking writes, read-replicas, or faster batch ingestion.
Techniques to optimize the pagerank algorithm usually fall in two categories. One is to try reducing the work per iteration, and the other is to try reducing the number of iterations. These goals are often at odds with one another. Skipping computation on vertices which have already converged has the potential to save iteration time. Skipping in-identical vertices, with the same in-links, helps reduce duplicate computations and thus could help reduce iteration time. Road networks often have chains which can be short-circuited before pagerank computation to improve performance. Final ranks of chain nodes can be easily calculated. This could reduce both the iteration time, and the number of iterations. If a graph has no dangling nodes, pagerank of each strongly connected component can be computed in topological order. This could help reduce the iteration time, no. of iterations, and also enable multi-iteration concurrency in pagerank computation. The combination of all of the above methods is the STICD algorithm. [sticd] For dynamic graphs, unchanged components whose ranks are unaffected can be skipped altogether.
Adjusting OpenMP PageRank : SHORT REPORT / NOTESSubhajit Sahu
For massive graphs that fit in RAM, but not in GPU memory, it is possible to take
advantage of a shared memory system with multiple CPUs, each with multiple cores, to
accelerate pagerank computation. If the NUMA architecture of the system is properly taken
into account with good vertex partitioning, the speedup can be significant. To take steps in
this direction, experiments are conducted to implement pagerank in OpenMP using two
different approaches, uniform and hybrid. The uniform approach runs all primitives required
for pagerank in OpenMP mode (with multiple threads). On the other hand, the hybrid
approach runs certain primitives in sequential mode (i.e., sumAt, multiply).
Data Centers - Striving Within A Narrow Range - Research Report - MCG - May 2...pchutichetpong
M Capital Group (“MCG”) expects to see demand and the changing evolution of supply, facilitated through institutional investment rotation out of offices and into work from home (“WFH”), while the ever-expanding need for data storage as global internet usage expands, with experts predicting 5.3 billion users by 2023. These market factors will be underpinned by technological changes, such as progressing cloud services and edge sites, allowing the industry to see strong expected annual growth of 13% over the next 4 years.
Whilst competitive headwinds remain, represented through the recent second bankruptcy filing of Sungard, which blames “COVID-19 and other macroeconomic trends including delayed customer spending decisions, insourcing and reductions in IT spending, energy inflation and reduction in demand for certain services”, the industry has seen key adjustments, where MCG believes that engineering cost management and technological innovation will be paramount to success.
MCG reports that the more favorable market conditions expected over the next few years, helped by the winding down of pandemic restrictions and a hybrid working environment will be driving market momentum forward. The continuous injection of capital by alternative investment firms, as well as the growing infrastructural investment from cloud service providers and social media companies, whose revenues are expected to grow over 3.6x larger by value in 2026, will likely help propel center provision and innovation. These factors paint a promising picture for the industry players that offset rising input costs and adapt to new technologies.
According to M Capital Group: “Specifically, the long-term cost-saving opportunities available from the rise of remote managing will likely aid value growth for the industry. Through margin optimization and further availability of capital for reinvestment, strong players will maintain their competitive foothold, while weaker players exit the market to balance supply and demand.”

allows users to create and deploy content in a
whole new way.
• Mobile-first
• Content looks beautiful on all devices, out
of the box.
• New configuration management
• Manage site configuration via version
control: export, import, share and merge.
What’s New in Drupal 8?
3. • A better authoring experience
• Manage your content easily with the
bundled CKEditor WYSIWYG editor and the
ability to edit in-place.
• Views in Core
• Customize all your views—the front page,
listing blocks, admin pages, filters, and
create your own custom listings without
installing any additional code.
• Multilingual capabilities
• Reach a global audience through
translating with built-in user interfaces
What’s New in Drupal 8?

6. Drush and the Drupal Console
Drush and the Drupal Console are both
command line tools that make administration
and development tasks for Drupal websites
much faster. In Drupal 8, these tools will
improve your workflow by providing a wide
arsenal of commands to speed up your ability
to build and maintain sites.
Learn how to install Drupal 8 and write a
module in this Introduction to Drush and
Drupal Console by Greg Anderson.
8. Configuration Management
Managing configuration is an important part of
any multi-person website project. The tools
available for Drupal 7 didn’t provide complete
coverage of all configuration settings, but
Drupal 8 has changed all of that.
Drupal 8’s new configuration management
system provides complete and consistent
import and export of all config settings.
9. Configuration Management
Git already provides facilities for managing
parallel work on different branches. When
conflicts occur, you can back out the
conflicting changes, take just the version
provided in the central repository, or if neither
of these alternatives are appropriate, use
three-way merge tools to examine and
manually resolve each difference.
A new Drush project, config-extra, includes a
config-merge command that streamlines the
use of these tools.
10. Twig replaced PHPTemplate in
Drupal 8 as its default template
engine. Twig provides a lot of new
functionality. It’s flexible and fast,
allowing developers to create their
own custom tags and filters and
reduces the majority of overhead
related to regular PHP code by
compiling templates down to plain
optimized PHP.
New Options for Frontend
TWIG Templating More Staff Time
Decoupled architecture has never
been easier than with Drupal 8,
which ships with a RESTful API built
into Core. It lets frontend
developers experiment with various
javascript frameworks, iOS apps, or
even other content management
systems to be innovative with the
UI but rely on Drupal’s powerful
backend.
Decoupled Architecture
11. Panels and Page Manager
Drupal 8 core is great for managing lots and
lots of content. Users can choose new
Content types, add arbitrary Fields, and then
create endless pieces of content of that type.
However, when it comes to creating one-off
landing pages or applying custom layouts,
Panels and Page Manager are still the way to
go.
12. Panels and Page Manager
The Panels module gives Drupal site
administrators the ability to create customized
layouts for various uses. Its drag and drop
interface allows users to visually design a page
layout and organize content within it. The
architecture of Panels in Drupal 8 is largely the
same as in Drupal 7, with some shifting in
certain functionality and module responsibility.
