Google App Engine is a web application development environment that runs applications on Google's infrastructure. It allows applications to use Google's scalable hosting and requires no manual administration of servers. Key features include automatic scaling, data storage, and limits on things like storage space and page views. The environment also has limitations like not being able to write to the file system or run background processes. Google App Engine is part of Google's strategy to move more services and applications online which could lower costs and increase opportunities for small businesses and web applications.

Visual modelling is nothing new in software development, from the diagrams today drawn in sprint meetings, to defined methodologies like systems modelling, visual task analysis and UCML. Applied to perennial challenges in testing, modelling can accelerate test creation, reduce test maintenance time, and help define upfront the complex data needed in testing. In their fullest application, models bring stakeholders across the delivery lifecycle into close collaboration: System designers can formulate requirements in visual models, with engineers rapidly developing and testing in parallel from the accurate specifications.
Jim Hazen is a 25-year veteran of automation in testing, who in recent years has developed a keen interest in modelling for testing and development. Jim will discuss the practical value of different modelling approaches live on this webinar, illustrated through real-world experiences and stories. Posing the question of whether any one approach can realise the full potential of modelling, Jim will hand over to Curiosity Director of Technology James Walker. James will provide a practical demonstration of cutting-edge techniques in model-based test and requirements design, discussing how they are helping organisations design, develop and build quality software in short iterations.
Four approaches to integrate aem with external systems by Jan KuzniakAEM HUB
This document reviews four scenarios for integrating AEM with external systems: letting AEM take the hit, third-party assembly, browser assembly, and edge assembly. Each approach has pros and cons related to performance, caching, content lifecycle management, and application of use cases like ecommerce sites. The key is choosing the approach best suited to each use case based on considerations like where bottlenecks may occur, how content is updated, and avoiding duplicating responsibilities across systems.
Static analysis is a technique that analyzes source code without executing it to find useful information. It works by using tools to capture how code is compiled and then analyzes every path through the code using checkers to find defects like crashes, memory issues and security vulnerabilities. It is beneficial because it can find problems early in the development process when they are cheaper to fix, and the analysis can be done continuously even when developers are not working. Static analysis fits into the software development lifecycle by integrating with activities like code checking, nightly builds, testing and security audits to surface defects.

The latest distributed system utilizing the cloud is a very complicated configuration in which the components span a plurality of components. Applications for customers are part of products, and service quality targets directly linked to business indicators are needed. Legacy monitoring system based on traditional system management is not linked not only to business indicators but also to measure service quality. Google advocates the idea of site reliability engineering (SRE) and introduces efforts to measure quality of service. Based on the concept of SRE, the service quality monitoring system collects and analyzes logs from various components not only application codes but also whole infrastructure components. Since very large amounts of data must be processed in real time, it is necessary to design carefully with reference to the big data architecture. To utilize this system, you can measure the quality of service, and make it possible to continuously improve the service quality.

CAKE: Sharing Slices of Confidential Data on BlockchainClaudio Di Ciccio
Presented at the CAiSE 2024 Forum, Intelligent Information Systems, June 6th, Limassol, Cyprus.
Synopsis: Cooperative information systems typically involve various entities in a collaborative process within a distributed environment. Blockchain technology offers a mechanism for automating such processes, even when only partial trust exists among participants. The data stored on the blockchain is replicated across all nodes in the network, ensuring accessibility to all participants. While this aspect facilitates traceability, integrity, and persistence, it poses challenges for adopting public blockchains in enterprise settings due to confidentiality issues. In this paper, we present a software tool named Control Access via Key Encryption (CAKE), designed to ensure data confidentiality in scenarios involving public blockchains. After outlining its core components and functionalities, we showcase the application of CAKE in the context of a real-world cyber-security project within the logistics domain.

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software FuzzingAftab Hussain
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.
