Service discovery and configuration provisioningSource Ministry
Slides from our talk "Service discovery and configuration provisioning" presented by Mariusz Gil at PHP Benelux 2016
Apache Zookeeper or Consul are almost completely unknown in the PHP world, although its use solves a lot of typical problems. In a nutshell, they are a central services of provisioning configuration information, distributed synchronization and coordination of servers/processes. It simplifies the processes of application configuration management, so it is possible to change its settings and operation in real time (eg. feature flagging). During the presentation the typical cases of use of Zookeeper/Consul in PHP applications will be presented, both strictly web and workers running from the CLI.

Benefits of Using MongoDB Over RDBMS (At An Evening with MongoDB Minneapolis ...MongoDB
Rapid Development and Performance By Transitioning from RDBMSs to MongoDB
Modern day application requirements demand rich & dynamic data structures, fast response times, easy scaling, and low TCO to match the rapidly changing customer & business requirements plus the powerful programming languages used in today's software landscape.
Traditional approaches to solutions development with RDBMSs increasingly expose the gap between the modern development languages and the relational data model, and between scaling up vs. scaling horizontally on commodity hardware. Development time is wasted as the bulk of the work has shifted from adding business features to struggling with the RDBMSs.
MongoDB, the premier NoSQL database, offers a flexible and scalable solution to focus on quickly adding business value again.
In this session, we will provide:
- Overview of MongoDB's capabilities
- Code-level exploration of the MongoDB programming model and APIs and how they transform the way developers interact with a database
- Update of the exciting features in MongoDB 3.0

Track: How We Build MongoDB
Learn how MongoDB answers your queries from a query system engineer. If you've ever had a performance problem with a query but didn't know how to find the cause, or if you've ever needed to confirm that your shiny new index is being put to work, the explain command is an excellent place to start. MongoDB's explain system is a powerful tool for solving this type of problem, but can be intimidating and unwieldy to use. In this talk, we will discuss how the explain command works and break down its output into digestible pieces.
What You Will Learn:
- Exactly how indexes are used during your queries and aggregations
- How to diagnose your poorly performing operations
- How to tune your most important operations to ensure that they scale seamlessly

beyond tellerrand: Mobile Apps with JavaScript – There's More Than WebHeiko Behrens
abstract from http://2011.beyondtellerrand.com
Modern web technologies and responsive design aim at a platform independent code base while promising first-class experience on any mobile device. Even though purely web-based approaches can achieve stunning results, they (still) cannot compete with their native counterpart regarding platform features and integration.
In this talk, I will show you how we can use JavaScript to produce mobile apps that include features such as native UI, push notifications, sensors, and paid distribution. You can expect lots of live demos when I will compare the strengths and weaknesses of various frameworks.

NYC* 2013 - "Advanced Data Processing: Beyond Queries and Slices"DataStax Academy
The ColumnFamily data model and wide-row support provides the ability to store and access data efficiently in a de-normalized state. Recent enhancements for CQL's spare tables and built-in indexing provide the capability to store data in a manner similar to that of relational databases. For many use cases hybrid approaches are needed, because complete de-normalization is appropriate for some access patterns whereas more structured data is appropriate for others. At times a single logical event becomes multiple insertions across multiple column families. Likewise a user request might require a several reads across different column families. This talk describes some of these scenarios and demonstrates how advanced operations such multiple step procedures, filtering, intersection, and paging can be implemented client side or server side with the help of the IntraVert plugin.

Just a few years ago all software systems were designed to be monoliths running on a single big and powerful machine. But nowadays most companies desire to scale out instead of scaling up, because it is much easier to buy or rent a large cluster of commodity hardware then to get a single machine that is powerful enough. In the database area scaling out is realized by utilizing a combination of polyglot persistence and sharding of data. On the application level scaling out is realized by microservices. In this talk I will briefly introduce the concepts and ideas of microservices and discuss their benefits and drawbacks. Afterwards I will focus on the point of intersection of a microservice based application talking to one or many NoSQL databases. We will try and find answers to these questions: Are the differences to a monolithic application? How to scale the whole system properly? What about polyglot persistence? Is there a data-centric way to split microservices?

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

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.

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).
