1. The document discusses how the mobile game Angry Birds achieved high performance on their Magento e-commerce store, processing over 1 million unique visitors per day with low latency.
2. Key aspects discussed include leveraging a scalable cloud infrastructure with services like AWS, extensive caching with Varnish, database optimizations, and splitting data and sessions across multiple servers.
3. The presentation provides many lessons learned around optimizing Magento performance through techniques like reducing database and file system calls, leveraging asynchronous caching, and ensuring high code quality.
The Angry Birds global web shop (at times the highest traffic Magento platform in the world) runs on Magento Enterprise, scales 100% automatically in the AWS infrastructure and is designed to easily handle 20x traffic peaks during marketing and new release peaks. Learn how to implement a Magento store for optimal performance, how to run it in a cloud environment, about the infrastructure and the applied strategies for continuous delivery, auto-scaling and zero-downtime rollouts.
The aim of this report is to introduce developers to the world of Magento optimization, giving suggestions and practical examples of the best practices to apply.
(WEB304) Running and Scaling Magento on AWS | AWS re:Invent 2014Amazon Web Services
Magento is a leading open source, eCommerce platform used by many global brands. However, architecting your Magento platform to grow with your business can sometimes be a challenge. This session walks through the steps needed to take an out-of-the-box, single-node Magento implementation and turn it into a highly available, elastic, and robust deployment. This includes an end-to-end caching strategy that provides an efficient front-end cache (including populated shopping carts) using Varnish on Amazon EC2 as well as offloading the Magento caches to separate infrastructure such as Amazon ElastiCache. We also look at strategies to manage the Magento Media library outside of the application instances, including EC2-based shared storage solutions and Amazon S3. At the data layer we look at Magento-specific Amazon RDSandndash;tuning strategies including configuring Magento to use read replicas for horizontal scalability. Finally, we look at proven techniques to manage your Magento implementation at scale, including tips on cache draining, appropriate cache separation, and utilizing AWS CloudFormation to manage your infrastructure and orchestrate predictable deployments.
Speeding up your WordPress site - WordCamp Hamilton 2015Alan Lok
Given at WordCamp Hamilton 2015, speeding up your WordPress site has great benefits - user satisfaction, SEO boost, better conversion, and saving money. Through internal tune-up and external optimization, you too can make your site faster.
Speeding up your WordPress Site - WordCamp Toronto 2015Alan Lok
This is a revised talk from the May 2015 presentation I gave to WordCamp Hamilton. At the end of this presentation you should have some ideas on how to speed up your WordPress site from within (plugins, code / theme optimizations) to environmental changes.
This is a talk I gave about Offline First development at jsDay Verona on May 14th, 2015 and TopConf Tallinn on November 18th, 2015 .
It covers why and when we should prepare our web apps for the offline state, which browser capabilities help us to accomplish the job and how we can detect the offline state for a better UI.
Dave Orchard - Offline Web Apps with HTML5Web Directions
There’s an old expression, that there are only 2 hard problems in computing: naming, cache invalidation and off-by-one errors. Building offline web apps is all about those hard problems. There are some different ways of storing stuff — such as html5 caching, html5 storage, sqllite, and even native stores such as contacts and calendars — and we’ll sing their praises. But the really hard problems are knowing what to store, whether the stuff is still good or needs refreshing, how much to store, how to resolve conflicts between the client and server, how to integrate with data-specific stores, all in a bewildering cacophony of network and storage limited devices. We’ll spend the bulk of our time on these hard problems, which is probably more useful than api description and sample code.

Connector Corner: Automate dynamic content and events by pushing a buttonDianaGray10
Here is something new! In our next Connector Corner webinar, we will demonstrate how you can use a single workflow to:
Create a campaign using Mailchimp with merge tags/fields
Send an interactive Slack channel message (using buttons)
Have the message received by managers and peers along with a test email for review
But there’s more:
In a second workflow supporting the same use case, you’ll see:
Your campaign sent to target colleagues for approval
If the “Approve” button is clicked, a Jira/Zendesk ticket is created for the marketing design team
But—if the “Reject” button is pushed, colleagues will be alerted via Slack message
Join us to learn more about this new, human-in-the-loop capability, brought to you by Integration Service connectors.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.
