In A World: How Online Communities Are Like The MoviesRyan Boyles
Starting an online community is like casting a film and picking the right sets. Adopting a community strategy is like writing a script and building the right soundtrack with the best crew. Getting community right is a lot like making movies, but it’s no field of dreams. Learn how to build the community you need and the community your audience wants by thinking like a filmmaker.

Speaker bio:
Ryan Boyles is an early adopter and technology whisperer. He leads the social media team responsible for corporate brand and B2B solutions at AMD. Ryan held several transformational roles at IBM in Research Triangle Park, spanning social media and growth marketing, community management and influencer relations, global tech conferences and technical evangelism, employee advocacy and executive coaching, branding and product launches; and once upon a time, he was a darn good front-end developer. He is an accomplished inventor with 12 software patents. Ryan received his bachelors of science degree in Computer Science from the College of Engineering at North Carolina State University. You can find Ryan co-hosting a stream show about useless nerd knowledge most Friday afternoons. When not working, he is probably traveling the country to an Avett Brothers concert.
IBM World of Watson: IoT Recipe JamboreeRyan Boyles
Think of this as a cross between a Startup Weekend, an unconference and a cooking channel reality TV show. IBM invited a group of 8 influencers to discuss what matters in IoT right now. IBM thinks the internet of things is meaningless if it does not turn data into insights to make the way we live and work a better experience. Let's explore what people are building, how they are doing it and where it is happening in labs, schools, start-ups, corporations and homes.

State of Technology 2014: The Creepy vs Magic ContinuumRyan Boyles
I hosted the technology workshop for Converge South 2014 and framed the discussion as an update to my State of the Web keynote from 2013. I did a deeper dive into the impact of internet of things, mobile, wearables and other evolving technology trends in terms of their creepy vs. magic factor, both as users and marketers. Personalization, privacy, identity, data ownership, design, context and other considerations are central to this discussion.

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!
A tale of scale & speed: How the US Navy is enabling software delivery from l...sonjaschweigert1
