JAXLondon 2015 "DevOps and the Cloud: All Hail the (Developer) King"Daniel Bryant
Last year 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 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. How to exploit them and how they effect the design of applications. Whether creating simple applications or sophisticated microservice architectures many of the challenges are the same.

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.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige 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:

1. Drupal VS Sitecore Comparisons
There are many questions you should consider when selecting a CMS for your organization. What kind of
digital experience do I want to deliver? What are the costs involved? Can I customize a site to my needs?
Is the CMS difficult to use?
Sitecore and Drupal are two popular CMS’s you may choose from. Both choices will ultimately get the
job done, but Drupal is the clear winner. Sitecore is only supported by Windows, is costly to implement
and maintain, and can be difficult to customize. Drupal, however, is free open-source software that
provides powerful tools to build a customizable digital experience when paired with the Acquia
Platform.
Drupal provides:
Flexible workflows to create better content, faster
Access to a scalable, reliable cloud platform
Complementary security products and services
Ability to reach users across web, mobile, commerce, and other channels
Drupal is the chosen CMS for over 100,000 users. Read more about how Drupal beats Sitecore when you
download our CMS toolkit today.
Features Acquia Drupal SiteCore
Maintenance effort
Drupal running in the Acquia
Enterprise cloud does not
require manual maintenance,
and is updated as part of the
Enterprise support costs, with
seamless production migration
Updates are manually installed by your
development partner
Services availability
Drupal is widely supported
(millions of installations) and
there is a large community of
reasonably priced agencies,
developers and contractors
available for project work
SiteCore is popular with large
organisations, (thousands of
installations), and has a smaller
community of available resources,
typically at higher costs
Platform capability
Drupal has very powerful out of
the box features, with
thousands of available plug-ins,
offering more than enough to
cater for most organisations
SiteCore is famous for it’s strong
enterprise capabilities, with many
reports having the platforms on par in
this regard. While others suggest core
functionality of SiteCore is more
advanced, it’s very rare for an
organisation to be able to take
advantage of those features given the
complexity involved in implementation
2. Vendor lock-in
Being open source, all
customizations are open and
available to the public. Any
vendor can viably take over a
Drupal site built elsewhere
Customizations to a proprietary platform
often unfortunately don’t follow best
practice and/or are closely guarded by
the platform owners, making it very
difficult to move to an alternate vendor
Timeline
There are typically timeline
efficiencies to consider if using
Drupal – site development can
commence quickly, and required
customisations and alterations
implemented by a large number
of vendors to ensure speed to
market
Platform setup time can create delays,
and more particularly, access to qualified
developers is scarce.
Performance
Drupal is famed for it’s
performance, and it’s
lightweight architecture is well-
suited to run efficiently and fast.
Further, the Acquia cloud has
been created to exploit Drupal’s
architecture, and deliver
astounding, scalable site
performance.
SiteCore being a larger footprint
software platform typically requires a
much more grunty/costly hosting
infrastructure to deliver similar
performance, however will perform well
in the right environment.
Editing interface
Early versions of Drupal were
not very easy to use. Modern
versions are not really a
concern, and the question of
usability is rarely a concern for
Drupal users of any skill level,
assuming the site is setup by
professionals.
The SiteCore editor interface is not very
user-friendly. Many users have chosen
to create content elsewhere, then
import into SiteCore when complete,
rather than managing the content right
from within the site. The administrative
interface is also infamously sluggish.
Footprint
Again, being a lightweight
infrastructure running on a
regular widely available LAMP
stack, the footprint is efficient
and low cost – there are more
hosting options available,
including Linux, Windows on
cloud (aws) AWS or traditional
infrastructure. The Acquia cloud
lives on an AWS infrastructure.
The large-scale nature of the software
requires a heavier hosting solution
(often 2 x the size), and only runs on a
Windows platform.
3. Security
The Drupal Security Team
includes approximately 40
people, a number of whom are
Acquia employees. The security
team created a framework to
report and prioritize the
mitigation of security
vulnerabilities discovered both
in Drupal core and in Drupal
contributed modules. In most
cases, the Acquia Cloud
Enterprise platform is patched
before the security challenge is
even exposed. The community
nature of Open Source also
encourages many thousands of
users to pro-actively be
monitoring for, and reporting,
any security issues.
It requires regular security patching.
SiteCore also offers world-class security,
assuming any vulnerabilities are patched
urgently. Given each install is managed
separately and onsite, clients need to
engage with vendors regularly to ensure
patches are installed in a timely fashion.
Further, this is only possible when
SiteCore themselves identify a
vulnerability, and then release the patch.
Marketplace
support
Drupal has a very strong
development community, with
the most popular 3rd party
module actually being used (not
just downloaded) at 10,301,803
at the time of writing: Drupal
Views
SiteCore development community is not
strong, with the most popular module
downloaded less than 400 times:
SiteCore Installer
Concurrent users
Drupal allows unlimited
concurrent users or
departments to access the site
administration.
Site enforces limits on the concurrent
authenticated users, making it a costly
and cumbersome affair to have large
numbers of editors and departments.
Integration
Custom integrations are easily
supported using Drupal’s very
popular and easily accessible
API, with a large number of
modules also developed for 3rd
party integrations.
SiteCore integrations can be very
cumbersome if not available out of the
box. It’s not unusual for a 1-2 day Drupal
integration to take 1-2 weeks in
SiteCore.
Customisation
Open source nature fosters
strong customisation ability, and
has many plug-ins available.
Proprietary system not well suited to
platform customisation if required,
however offers strong flexibility out of
the box.
4. Profiling
Drupal has simple user profiling
capabilities out of the box, and
can be customized to offer more
advanced profiling and
behaviour analysis. The addition
of Acquia Lift provides strong
personalization capabilities.
SiteCore is built around profiling user
behavior on the site, and delivers
stronger capabilities in this area as
standard functionality
Development costs
Drupal resources are more
highly available, and there are
little infrastructure/license costs
SiteCore has inherently more
sophisticated infrastructure
requirements, resources are more
expensive, and the build process is
slightly more complicated – build costs
are roughly double typically.
Support for Social
Channels
Drupal provides modules to
integrate Social Media Channels
like Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn,
etc.
Stronger Capabilities in integrating Social
Experiences
Content Author’s
perspective
Drupal offers Inline editing options,
Quick Edit options and full edit
mode, Any content item can be
made editable.
On the Drupal side, a combination
of Drupal modules can match this
functionality. Drag and drop
functionality can be achieved either
with the Panels module, or by using
Acquia’s Lift service and
accompanying Lift Connector
module.
Sitecore offers In-place editing with
Experience Editor
Sitecore Experience Accelerator, provides
the user an interface to drag and drop
various reusable elements onto a page,
including text, images, video and JavaScript
widgets, and more
Platform Support and
Cloud capabilities
It supports almost all platforms
(Windows, Linux, MAC, etc.) It
easily integrates on Cloud systems
and Acquia Cloud provides out of
box features for Drupal
Development platform
Support only on windows. Support on Cloud
is limited
Marketing
Automation
Drupal integrates well with
every major marketing
automation platform, for
example, Marketo and Pardot.
Google analytics provides highly
functional analytics and
reporting capabilities
Sitecore’s signature capability is in its
marketing functionality and provides out
of box solutions for automation and user
based analytics
5. Integration
Capabilities
Drupal 8 popular and API first
initiative makes custom
integrations easy with large
number of modules also allow
most of the 3rd party
integrations
Sitecore integrations can be
cumbersome and difficult if not available
Digital Asset
Management
Drupal provides out of box
solution for digital libraries.
With integration with search
engines such as Solr, faceted
search, Acquia Search and
document preview. we can build
searchable and filterable digital
libraries of any scale
Sitecore provides DigizuiteTM DAM module
out of box solution for Digital Libraries
management
Drupal is excellent in adapting to larger enterprise use case scenarios. Websites that need to be deployed
with a multisite or multiuser setup will benefit from Drupal's common codebase delivery options. Building
complex websites with involved workflows and custom backend administration tools and dashboards are
ideal for Drupal. Drupal is more of a web application development framework
Sitecore really isn't suited to smaller companies as it is relatively expensive and not all of the features are
easily used without proper support and training, at some cost.
