Intelligently collecting data at the edgeâintro to Apache MiNiFiDataWorks Summit
Â
Apache NiFi provided a revolutionary data flow management system with a broad range of integrations with existing data production, consumption, and analysis ecosystems, all covered with robust data delivery and provenance infrastructure. Now learn about the follow-on project which expands the reach of NiFi to the edge, Apache MiNiFi. MiNiFi is a lightweight application which can be deployed on hardware orders of magnitude smaller and less powerful than the existing standard data collection platforms. With both a JVM compatible and native agent, MiNiFi allows data collection in brand new environments â sensors with tiny footprints, distributed systems with intermittent or restricted bandwidth, and even disposable or ephemeral hardware. Not only can this data be prioritized and have some initial analysis performed at the edge, it can be encrypted and secured immediately. Local governance and regulatory policies can be applied across geopolitical boundaries to conform with legal requirements. And all of this configuration can be done from central command & control using an existing NiFi with the trusted and stable UI data flow managers already love.
Expected prior knowledge / intended audience: developers and data flow managers should have passing knowledge of Apache NiFi as a platform for routing, transforming, and delivering data through systems (a brief overview will be provided). The talk will focus on extending the data collection, routing, provenance, and governance capabilities of NiFi to IoT/edge integration via MiNiFi.

Streaming and real-time data has high business value, but that value can rapidly decay if not processed quickly. If the value of the data is not realized in a certain window of time, its value is lost and the decision or action that was needed as a result never occurs. Streaming data â whether from sensors, devices, applications, or events â needs special attention because a sudden price change, a critical threshold met, a sensor reading changing rapidly, or a blip in a log file can all be of immense value, but only if the alert is in time.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Â
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).

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
Â
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more âmechanicalâ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

10. The Dual Open Source Approach
⢠This approach offers the most potential to Local Government.
⢠There are certain products in the Open Source Arena that follow the Dual
Approach
⢠Alfresco - Web Site Development and Presentation
⢠eGroupware - Mail / Calendar / Contacts / Helpdesk
⢠SugarCRM â CRM application
⢠MySQL
⢠... And many more
⢠Each of these solutions offer an Enterprise Application which costs
similar or in the case of CRM more than the equivalent proprietary
product
⢠Each also offer a Community product which has no cost for the
license, however, the costs for support, maintenance and bug fixes can
be very high.
⢠The only way to counteract this cost Risk is to become an active part of
the community or share the risk across the whole Local Government
Community
11. Why Consider Alternatives for Office Automation
⢠Ease of access
⢠Ability to collaborate
⢠Open Platform (PC, Mac & Linux
Compatibility)
⢠Open Standard - Open Document Format -
⢠Cost! MS Office 2007 / 2010 is âŹ149 - âŹ550
per license.
12. Open Source Research and Learning to date
⢠The Open Source Community is out there
⢠There are Many, Many Open Source solutions
⢠Open Source Successful projects are based around
communities.
⢠The route to success for Local Authorities is to mimic the
Open Source Community model
⢠There is an Opportunity now to look to adopt Open Source
13. License
⢠There are upward of 71 open source licenses which fall
into 3
families:
⢠Give me credit
⢠Give me fixes
⢠Give me everything
⢠We do have to understand the differences and the
potentials.
14. Open Source Lowering Barriers for Entrants
â˘Low cost and scalable infrastructure (Linux,
MySQL, Apache)
â˘Quality software available at no licenses cost
â˘Key software components available for
integration
â˘Can make changes to Open source code for
extra value
â˘Development and run time environments for
fast and iterative deployments (PHP, Perl,
Python, Ruby on Rails)
â˘Communities for instant help and fast
innovation cycles
â˘Open Source as a Engine for Web 2.0
20. How to Integrate Open Source into our IT strategy
â˘Insist on Open Standards - Increases Agility
- flexibility and responsiveness Evaluate Open
Source and Commercial software options
â˘Can use a mixture of open source and
proprietary
â˘Donât need a separate Strategyâ
interoperability I migration considerations are
important
â˘Like all Software Solutions â have to Balance
up-front costs against recurring costs
21. What do we have to do?
⢠Understand the Community and Maturity of Open Source - Broad
industry support are important
⢠Sustainable business models are critical
⢠Healthy ecosystem of Solution Providers and Business Partners
essential
⢠Establish policies for working with Open Source software
⢠Educate company teams about OSS before they work with it
⢠Implement a management system to review, approve, and track the
use of OSS inside the company, and contributions of company
software assets to external OSS projects
⢠Understand Open Source Licensing â need to establish a process to
help us understand the terms of the licenses and the procedures
required to comply with them
⢠Make decisions based on both business and technical factors
22. Open Source attitudes and expectationsâŚ

29. What are Other Governments doing?
⢠The UK Government has agreed to:
⢠consider Open source solutions alongside proprietary ones in IT
procurements. Contracts will be awarded on a value for money
basis
⢠only use products for interoperability that support open standards
and specifications in all future IT developments
⢠seek to avoid lock-in to proprietary IT products and services.
⢠Reasons â
⢠1. Cost Savings - Licensing Fees
⢠2. Solutions vs Software
⢠3. Speed to Deployment
⢠4. Cost Savings - IT Investments
⢠5. Open Source Standards & Security
32. Conclusions
ďŽ Can be fanatic or a zealot, but the show must go on
ďŽ A growing number of OSS Government communities across Europe
ďŽ Every migration to Open Source Software needs a change
programme and TCO to justify it
ďŽ OSS need not be an all or nothing scenario nor the universal answer
to IT future
ďŽ The higher the dependence on proprietary office productivity
software the bigger the task to move to OSS
ďŽ Need to overcome the support issue
