One of the attractive qualities of OSGi is its role in enabling technologies that adopt it to manage the cost of their own success. Anything that gains adoption - in technology or elsewhere - picks up baggage as a result and needs to figure out how to deal with current installations while expanding in new directions. The WebSphere platform has been around for almost as long as Java and knows a thing or two about baggage but still manages to travel to many places with just a carry-on allowance. We adopted OSGi internally 8 years ago and have gradually increased our exploitation with each passing release, most recently and deeply with the lightweight WAS Liberty Profile. It hasn't all been plain sailing and we learned from a number of mistakes made along the way. When WebSphere Application Server first adopted OSGi it had over 10 million lines of code in a modest number of huge JARs. The engineering effort to modularize that into a “sensible” number of OSGi bundles was fairly significant. We had a global development team spread across a dozen labs and nearly as many timezones, all learning OSGi principles at the same time. What could possibly go wrong? We did not, for example, initially adopt the services part of the OSGi architecture but it’s how we can now start/stop individual technologies of the Java EE Web Profile on the WAS Liberty profile, in a 50MB install with a 2-second startup, while still supporting a massive deploy base of applications on older levels of Java EE.
One of the challenges OSGi continues to face is over when to be “front of office” and when to be “back”. As the industry accelerates towards cloud, OSGi is an internal part of IBM’s strategy for high-density virtualized Platform-as-a-Service through WebSphere Liberty. Today’s cloud provisioning strategies, for example the buildpacks used by Heroku and CloudFoundry, are designed to be technology-agnostic. As a programming model for the cloud, OSGi is in a position of strength with its heavily service-oriented architecture. But in the spirit of agnosticism, one of the next steps OSGi needs to take is simply greater availability of the core OSGi framework in some of the more popular cloud platforms. Once there are more OSGi services running in those environments then the value and simplicity of autowiring OSGi services as cloud services becomes more apparent. Expectations and vision has to be managed up and down any organization that invests in OSGi - from the executive leadership team responsible for the business's bottom line, through the distributed architecture/development teams building tomorrow's technology on top of today’s, to the marketing and sales organization who need to sell the result to both IT and line of business. The value proposition has to be tailored to the audience.
This is the story of how WebSphere has had outstanding success with the former four-letter acronym that IBM Marketing still wants to expand.

ABSTRACT
One of the attractive qualities of OSGi is its role in enabling technologies that adopt it to manage the cost of their own success. Anything that gains adoption - in technology or elsewhere - picks up baggage as a result and needs to figure out how to deal with current installations while expanding in new directions. The WebSphere platform has been around for almost as long as Java and knows a thing or two about baggage but still manages to travel to many places with just a carry-on allowance. We adopted OSGi internally 8 years ago and have gradually increased our exploitation with each passing release, most recently and deeply with the lightweight WAS Liberty Profile. It hasn't all been plain sailing and we learned from a number of mistakes made along the way. When WebSphere Application Server first adopted OSGi it had over 10 million lines of code in a modest number of huge JARs. The engineering effort to modularize that into a “sensible” number of OSGi bundles was fairly significant. We had a global development team spread across a dozen labs and nearly as many timezones, all learning OSGi principles at the same time. What could possibly go wrong? I’ll spend a little time reviewing the consequences of our bundles-first-services-later approach but our success was initially limited to having the equivalent of a well-organized and large container ship which could travel at speed but needed a pretty wide berth. Our initial investment in OSGi delivered on most of the internal benefits we wanted but failed on some of the external ones that matter to our customers.
Application Servers are used in different ways by Developers and IT Operations. Ops teams care about the overall cost, including performance and availability, of the platform and the applications it supports; Dev teams care about how quickly and easily they can create and deliver their applications and treat the server as a tool. Only some of them know or care about OSGi; multi-channel enablement and cloud deployment are the current pressures they are under. Today, WebSphere is a consumer of OSGi in two distinct fashions. Internally we learned from our earlier experiences and embraced an OSGi services model to enable us to run the same runtime just as fast but in a far more dynamic fashion: it’s how we can start/stop individual technologies of the Java EE Web Profile independently on the WAS Liberty profile, in a 50MB install with a 2-second startup while still support all our customers’ existing deployments. Externally we support both Enterprise OSGi and traditional Java EE as application programming models, on the same runtime and using the same Eclipse-based tools. Our customers who understand and care about OSGi can develop and deploy web application bundles and multi-bundle enterprise applications. Those who don’t care about OSGi benefit from it ind

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.

"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.

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.
