2° Ciclo Microsoft CRUI 3° Sessione: l'evoluzione delle piattaforme tecnologi...Jürgen Ambrosi
L’obiettivo è quello di fare una panoramica dello stato dell’arte sulle tecnologie a supporto dei database. Alcuni esempi sono la tecnologia in-memory integrata con le funzionalità di analisi operative in tempo reale e della tecnologia Always Encrypted per la protezione dei dati utilizzati in locale o durante gli spostamenti. La tecnologia in-memory consente di migliorare di 30 volte le performance delle transazioni utilizzando hardware standard di settore. Inoltre i Big Data e l'analisi sono diventati un importante fattore di differenziazione competitivo, ma la gestione delle enormi quantità di dati correlate a un tempo di attività 24 ore su 24 continua a essere una sfida per l'IT. Oggi è più importante che mai soddisfare a livello aziendale l'esigenza di prestazioni, disponibilità e sicurezza efficace per gestire carichi di lavoro mission-critical a un costo contenuto. Le soluzioni Microsoft fissano un nuovo standard nelle performance mission-critical.

The Art of the Pitch: WordPress Relationships and SalesLaura Byrne
Clients don’t know what they don’t know. What web solutions are right for them? How does WordPress come into the picture? How do you make sure you understand scope and timeline? What do you do if sometime changes?
All these questions and more will be explored as we talk about matching clients’ needs with what your agency offers without pulling teeth or pulling your hair out. Practical tips, and strategies for successful relationship building that leads to closing the deal.

PHP Frameworks: I want to break free (IPC Berlin 2024)Ralf Eggert
In this presentation, we examine the challenges and limitations of relying too heavily on PHP frameworks in web development. We discuss the history of PHP and its frameworks to understand how this dependence has evolved. The focus will be on providing concrete tips and strategies to reduce reliance on these frameworks, based on real-world examples and practical considerations. The goal is to equip developers with the skills and knowledge to create more flexible and future-proof web applications. We'll explore the importance of maintaining autonomy in a rapidly changing tech landscape and how to make informed decisions in PHP development.
This talk is aimed at encouraging a more independent approach to using PHP frameworks, moving towards a more flexible and future-proof approach to PHP development.
Software Delivery At the Speed of AI: Inflectra Invests In AI-Powered QualityInflectra

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.
"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.
Let's dive deeper into the world of ODC! Ricardo Alves (OutSystems) will join us to tell all about the new Data Fabric. After that, Sezen de Bruijn (OutSystems) will get into the details on how to best design a sturdy architecture within ODC.

2. DCL COMMANDS WHAT IS DCL? DATA CONTROL LANGUAGE As the name suggests, DCL is used to control Data. It can be used to save or delete tables or rollback to an existing save point. Save Point: It is a marker that represent a point of integrity in a database transaction. It is more like a backup or a restore point that we use in windows. The Next slide illustrates the Save points concept better.
4. Deleting tables Dropping of tables: Microsoft SQL Server 2008 provides yet another simple keyword for deleting the table. And that is the word ‘DROP’ drop table tablename; The SQL Command drop deletes the table permanently and beyond recovery. Hence, it is advisable to reconsider deletion before performing it.
5. Saving tables Saving the existing work so that it can be resumed with later Microsoft SQL Server 2008 commits to us in this matter by providing us with the keyword ‘COMMIT’ commit; Caution: Once used, we cannot undo the changes made to the table previous to this command.
6. Saving tables Undo-ing the changes done to the table: Microsoft SQL Server 2008 provides a solution with the simple keywords: ‘savepoint’ and ‘Rollback’ Create a Save point savepointsavepointname; Reverts the database state to the most recently created save point rollback; NOTE: You cannot rollback the DDL commands but only DML commands. So be cautious!!!
