1- What are the major challenges facing IT professionals today?
2- Is the demand for applications growing and, if so, what are the implications?
3- What are the highest priority application types, systems, and development approaches that make up the digital transformation landscape?
4- How are organizations dealing with the rise of citizen developers and the developer skills gap?
5- Are organizations embracing new approaches, like low-code platforms, to accelerate digital transformation?
A version of my Rapid Product Design in the Wild talk at Agile Iceland 2014. http://www.agileisland.is
How do you know you're developing the right product? This talk will help you think creatively about how to do customer development using Agile and Lean User Experience methods. I share what we learnt about using rapid, iterative prototyping techniques to develop a minimum viable product at a software conference.
In August 2012 we attended Kscope, a conference for Oracle developers. Instead of doing the usual product demonstrations, we turned our stand into a live lab and took Agile development processes out of the office and in front of our customers. Our stand included an area for customer research, a Kanban board and information radiators in the form of a whiteboard, blank wall and a large digital screen. Over 3 days we ran 9 sprints and conducted 25 customer interviews, using a paper prototype to get feedback. We collected invaluable information about our customers' development environments, how they work with their teams, their processes, tasks and pain points. By the end of the conference my colleague had developed an interactive HTML/CSS prototype which potential customers could evaluate. The team went through several rapid build-measure-learn cycles to improve our product concept and validate the market need.
Opening up our development process at a trade show provided visitors to the stand with an opportunity to experience Agile and Lean methods first-hand.
Low code - empower the capability to accelerate | Swatantra KumarSwatantra Kumar
In today’s fast-changing environment customers are better informed, better connected and more demanding than ever before. Digitization is no longer a choice, it is indispensable. Irrespective of the size and industry you are in, your organization needs to continuously transform to survive in the evolving and demanding business environments.
Traditional application development falls short and cannot keep up with the demands from the business. Low-code platforms proved over the last years to provide a solution to deal with both business and IT challenges. Low-code software development can therefore be a serious accelerator, driving the digital transformation of your organization!
This article looks at the potential and the reality of low-code development platforms and how low-code can drive digital transformation within organizations. It illustrates how to start your low-code journey, what it entails and how to make low-code software development a success for your organization.
OPEN SOURCE HORROR STORIES (AND LESSONS LEARNED)FINOS
Gil Yehuda, Oath: Open Source Horror Stories (and lessons learned).
Open Source is not just about unicorns and rainbows where nice developers give you free code and fix it for you. This talk will feature a few cringeworthy but real-world stories of open source situations gone bad. We’ll talk about cases where people published things they should not have, licenses with terms you’d never agree with, employees who forget who signs their paychecks, DMCA takedowns that kill your code, and situations where you now own someone else’s mistakes. Names and some details will be withheld to protect the innocent and guilty alike. But each case points to a policy which you should put in place to protect your projects and your interests in the world of open source. At the end of this talk you’ll see why many companies manage an open source program the way they do.

Metrics All The Way: Data Driven DevOps (devconf.cz 2022).pdfHemaVeeradhi1
In this talk, we will investigate the opportunities of data driven DevOps, show what opportunities lie ahead of us when we engage in mining, analyzing and visualizing software engineering process data, but also highlight important factors that influence the success and adaptability of data-based improvement approaches.
Usually, DataOps means applying DevOps principles to existing data analytics projects. We accidentally reversed it, taking a DevOps initiative and catalyzing adoption of data-driven practices across our company.
What started as a practical initiative to bring better reliability and visibility to our software product had the unexpected effect of catalyzing a transformation that helped our organization become more data-driven across the company. What we learned in the process was how and why DevOps principles can naturally expand the role of a traditional operations team and bring wider culture change to the organization.

I dette oplæg til Headstart Networks morgenseminar om "Netværk i organisationer" fortæller han hvordan en global virksomhed skaber bedre rammer for at arbejde sammen på tværs af afdelinger og tidszoner gennem en intern netværksplatform.
So many of us have learned data modeling and database design approaches from working with one database or data technology. We may have used only one data modeling tool. That means our vocabularies around identifiers and keys tend to be product specfic. Do you know the difference between a unique index and a unique key? What about the difference between RI, FK and AK?
In this webinar we'll look at the generic and proprietary terms for these concepts, as well as where they fit in the data modeling and database design process. We'll also look at implementation options across a few commercial DBMSs and datastores.
Bring your developers and DBAs, too. These concepts span data activities and it's important that your team understand each other and where they, their tools and approaches need to support these features, too.

[Workshop] Building an Integration Agile Digital Enterprise with Open Source ...WSO2
Today, transforming a conventional business into a digital one is essential to increase revenue and productivity. Integrating heterogeneous systems and building an ecosystem with integrated components is a fundamental requirement for this.
Most modern systems support integration with other systems through APIs that are exposed to well-known protocols and standards. However, it is hard to expect all existing systems of an organization to be capable of integrating with other systems. Certain legacy systems will only be replaced a few years down the line.
Therefore, the challenge is to drive all these existing systems towards integration. In this half-day workshop, we will discuss how you can use the lean, enterprise-ready, and high-performing WSO2 Integration platform to solve integration and innovation challenges that organizations face when performing brownfield integration.
Discussion topics include:
- The benefits of using open source technologies
- Managing an API lifecycle with open source technologies
- Upleveling brownfield integration with open source technologies
- Customer identity and access management with open source technologies

Best practices for using open source software in the enterpriseMarcel de Vries
Most of us understand the benefits of using open source software (OSS) and libraries. Heck, even Microsoft embraces it, so why can’t you adopt it as well in your enterprise? Open source can be a blessing and a curse at the same time. We probably all remember incidents like the “heart bleed” vulnerability in a popular open source implementation of SSL. So, if open source becomes more and more prevalent, how can we cope with the challenges that lay at hand? We will be challenged with all sorts of questions in the enterprise: What are the license implications when I take a dependency on a library with a viral type of license? What version of open source libraries are we using and are they the choice of the generic public or did we select one we now need to maintain ourselves? Are there known vulnerabilities in the libraries we use, and if so, are we affected by that? In this session, we take a practical approach to using open source libraries in product development for the enterprise. We touch briefly on the license types and the ones to look out for. We show you how an artefact repository system can help you to answer a lot of the tough questions. Learn how to integrate a system that is very popular, called Nexus, in your continuous deployment strategy and ensure a frictionless experience for your developers. We show integration with NuGet and how to manage open source dependencies using proxy facilities so you can ensure only a curated set of libraries are used, and meet compliance requirements for your business.

Challenges for running Hadoop on AWS - AdvancedAWS MeetupAndrei Savu
Nowadays we've got all the tools we need to spin-up and tear-down clusters with hundreds of nodes in minutes and this puts more pressure on the tools we use to configure and monitor our applications. This challenge is even more interesting when we have to deal with long running distributed data storage and processing systems like Hadoop. In this talk we will look into some of the challenges we need to deal with when creating and managing Hadoop clusters in AWS, we will discuss improvement opportunities in monitoring (e.g. detecting and dealing with instance failure, resource contention & noisy neighbors) and a bit about the future and how we should go about disconnecting workload dispatch from cluster lifecycle.

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.
