CQRS and Event Sourcing, An Alternative Architecture for DDDDennis Doomen
Most of us will be familiar with the standard 3- or 4-layer architecture you often see in larger enterprise systems. Some are already practicing Domain Driven Design and work together with the business to clarify the domain concepts. Perhaps you’ve noticed that is difficult to get the intention of the 'verbs' from that domain into this standard architecture. If performance is an important requirement as well, then you might have discovered that an Object-Relational Mapper and a relational database are not always the best solution.
One of the main reasons for this is the fact that the interests of a consistent domain that takes into account the many business rules, and those of data reporting and presentation are conflicting. That’s why Betrand Meyer introduced the Command Query Separation principle.
An architecture based on this principle combined with the Event Sourcing concept provides the ideal architecture for building high-performance systems designed using DDD. Well-known bloggers like Udi Dahan and Greg Young have already spent quite a lot of of posts on this, and this year’s Developer Days had some coverage as well.
But how do you build such a system with the. NET framework? Is it really as complex as some claim, or is just different work?
7thingsmedia's Founder & CEO , Chris Bishop, presented an intimate introduction into search engine optimization (SEO). Bishop took the group through the basics of how the various search engines work, how to efficiently rank in them and the key on page and off page ranking factors. Plus an Google Panda and Google Penguin update.

This lengthy (150+ slides), but very comprehensive presentation is designed to help experienced SEOs train those new to the practice over a 2-3 hour, interactive session. It covers the search engine landscape, the SEO process, keyword research, link building and the emergence of social media as a ranking signal.
SEO has changed a lot over the last two decades. We all know about Google Panda & Penguin, but did you know there was a time when search engine results were returned by humans? Crazy right? We take a trip down memory lane to chart some of the biggest events in SEO that have helped shape the industry today.

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
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle.
Gopinath Rebala
Gopinath Rebala is the CTO of OpsMx, where he has overall responsibility for the machine learning and data processing architectures for Secure Software Delivery. Gopi also has a strong connection with our customers, leading design and architecture for strategic implementations. Gopi is a frequent speaker and well-known leader in continuous delivery and integrating security into software delivery.
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!
