End-users’ expectations for web and mobile site performance keep rising. In a 2011 survey of 4,014 mobile web users 71% stated they expect websites to load as quickly, almost as quickly or faster on their mobile phone than on the computer they use at home – up from 58% in 2009.
With web and mobile sites your customers expect transactions that are fast and work faultlessly. Failure to deliver quality web experiences through slow or malfunctioning sites will result in lost customers and business.
Featured speakers, Bryan McQuade, Senior Software Engineer at Google and Page Speed tech lead, and Compuware APM CTO Steve Tack show:
• What end-users rising performance expectations mean for website owners and developers
• The impact of web and mobile site performance on business results
• Best practices to optimize web and mobile site performance using Page Speed
Consumer Perceptions of Online Registration and Social LoginWikonsumer Research
In October 2011, Blue Research conducted research to assess consumer attitudes about traditional online registration processes and perceptions of using existing social identities to login across the web.
Surveying a cross-section of 600 U.S. consumers, the results show a growing preference for social login since similar research was conducted a year earlier. The study also reveals the challenges associated with website conversion and obtaining accurate information about consumers from traditional registration.
The impact on brands is significant. A profound majority of consumers prefer social login over traditional registration and tend to exhibit behaviors that make them more a valuable group to target.

MeasureWorks - Emerece eTravel - 7 performance concerns for marketersMeasureWorks
De hedendaagse consument is verwend. Bezoekers verwachten een makkelijke en snelle website waarin het reisaanbod overzichtelijk en snel toegankelijk is.
Recent onderzoek van ondermeer Forrester en Aberdeen Groep toont aan dat een website met pagina’s langzamer dan 3 seconden het risico loopt dat meer dan 40% van uw bezoekers uw website vroegtijdig verlaten. Spitsuur op jouw website voor vertragingen kan zorgen, met de kans dat meer dan 75% van de bezoekers wegslikt naar een concurrent.
In jouw reisorganisatie besteed je dan ook veel tijd en geld aan het creëren van een zo volledig mogelijk beeld van het profiel van de bezoeker. De Web Analytics oplossing staat hierin vaak centraal bij het inzichtelijk maken en sturen van het bezoek van de gebruikers op de site.
Vaak wordt vergeten dat een goede werking en kwaliteit van een website een minstens even bepalende factor kunnen zijn in een succesvolle conversie van bezoeker naar klant. Aan de hand van praktijkvoorbeelden zullen we u niet alleen laten zien hoe de resultaten van A/B performance testen een directe koppeling leggen tussen site performance en omzet en loyaliteit van de bezoeker, maar ook welke aspecten de performance van uw website kunnen beïnvloeden en hoe u deze kunt opsporen. Tevens hoe u performance aspecten eenvoudig kunt kwantificeren EN relateren aan verloren conversie op uw website.

Website performance and stability problems directly impact the bottom line. While shoppers demand page load speeds in the milliseconds, most e-commerce sites have response times closer to 8 seconds – nearly twice the latency of other website categories studied.
This report combines the statistics of over 5000 performance tests with 500 survey responses to shed light on the importance of performance testing and the reasons e-retailers neglect to run such tests, despite the fact that increased latency almost always leads to a decrease in sales.

Mobile Optimization Tips from Yottaa - MEGMeetup #1Yottaa
Google recently announced that it will be changing the way search results are ranked for mobile browsers. tl;dr to webmasters: stop phoning in your mobile site optimizations if you want to...well, reach people on their phones. Google's announcement makes three main points: first, mobile browsing comprises a significant part of web traffic; second, web performance optimization is critical to end user experience; and finally, end users demand a device-specific and complete mobile browsing experience.
In this talk we took a look at the recent and projected growth in mobile browsing, reviewed findings on how perceived and real performance problems impact users' browsing behavior, and provided useful tips and tools to maximize your site's mobile search ranking.

Significant effort and investment go into producing great online advertisements, music videos, and trailers for blockbuster movies. If the video stream is not available, you end up with “dead air.” If the stream rebuffers repeatedly, causing users long wait times, you’re creating poor end-user experience and, worse, possibly losing them as customers. Both outcomes are going to result in a negative impact on your brand and your revenue.

Why Server Virtualization Demands an End-user’s PerspectiveCompuware APM
Enterprises regularly refresh server platforms to harness improvements in compute capacity, power consumption and maintenance costs. In 2012, servers are more likely to be virtualized than physical, presenting new challenges in a migration project. Monitoring at a component-level won't improve performance but subjective monitoring of the end-user experience (EUE) does.
Today's Application Performance Management (APM) tools employ EUE monitoring so pre-migration baselines and post-migration SLAs are based on what matters: the subjective quality of user experience. The added benefit? APM identifies and resolves problems more quickly than component monitoring tools. This shields server migration projects from costly extensions and infrastructure overlaps by accelerating problem identification and resolution.
Join Compuware and featured guest Forrester Research, Inc. in this webcast to understand:
- Forrester's definition of the user experience network or UxN
- Why dynamic virtualized environments demand end user monitoring

Measure Twice, Cut Once: 5 Best Practices For Selecting Your Cloud Service Pr...Compuware APM
So, you’ve defined your cloud strategy, developed the business plan, published your cloud application roadmap, and got buy-in from all the stakeholders. Now comes the hard part – selecting your cloud service providers and partners!
Many companies are finding out the hard way that while the cloud is a simple concept, beneath the billows lays a complex application delivery chain with many hidden dependencies and unforeseen business risks. And with the business demanding faster and faster ‘time-to-value’, you have less time to do more, often without good information. The net result is your risk of choosing the wrong cloud service provider is significant. It could even reduce or eliminate the planned business benefits and ROI.
So how can you ensure that your selection process for cloud service providers and partners is fast but well-informed, based on reliable data and mitigates the risk of hidden surprises?
Join EMA and Compuware in this webinar and discover:
• Where to find reliable, actionable data on CSP performance and availability
• What factors you should take into account that are unique to you
• Whether SLAs matter when it comes to selecting a CSP
• How to identify hidden dependencies and unforeseen risks
• How to do cost-effective, real-world performance testing of CSPs
How to Mitigate the Performance Risk of Third-party Web ComponentsCompuware APM
No website is an island. To provide rich customer experiences, websites increasingly depend on third-party components such as shopping carts, ads, customer reviews, web analytics, social networking, search engine optimization, video, and many more. Third-party components enrich your website’s functionality to drive more traffic to your site, offer interactive experiences, increase conversion, and add new functionality when it becomes available.
The problem: Your entire website can be vulnerable to degraded performance or a complete shutdown if any one of these components fails. The solution is to follow best practices in website design and monitoring to happily use third-party components while mitigating the risk of dependency.
Forrester principal analyst Mike Gualtieri and Compuware APM CTO Steve Tack to show:
• How third-party components can make your website better and why this trend will only increase.
• Why service level agreements give you a false sense of security.
• Best practices to mitigate the risks of using third-party components.

Are Your Applications Delivering What Your End-Users Expect?Compuware APM
The end user experience is a critical pillar of application performance management. It requires a global view that tracks the path of an application from data center through the Internet, and all the way to "the last mile" of delivery to the end user's computer or device.
Although a well-established discipline, traditional application performance management approaches provide highly silo'ed views of application delivery to the end user. A full picture requires breadth and depth, and a view of the full business impact.
Featured speakers, Tony Baer, Senior Analyst from independent research firm Ovum, and Compuware APM CTO Steve Tack to show:

Managing Complexity Across Today’s Application Delivery Chain:
Six key indicators for prioritizing application performance improvements
Today’s application delivery chain is harder to manage than ever. Applications ranging from mission-critical legacy systems to innovative productivity tools running on employee-owned smartphones all must be delivered flawlessly. Additionally, technologies like virtualization, the cloud and WAN optimization make managing performance even more complex. As each new application generation is deployed on top of existing assets, managing system-wide application availability and performance becomes increasingly dependent on a growing collection of incompatible tools, informal processes and multiple – often siloed – stakeholders.

5 Best Practices for Successful Cloud Deployments – and the Pitfalls to AvoidCompuware APM
Companies that rely on enforcing Service Level Agreements (SLAs) from their Cloud Service Providers to manage the performance of their cloud applications are increasingly discovering that they are failing to meet their business objectives. The reality is that by the time an SLA has been missed, your end users and customers have already been severely impacted, resulting in poor adoption and missed revenue opportunities.
Successful cloud deployments require real-time visibility of application performance and service level trends across the entire delivery chain – from first mile (your data center) to last mile (your users). This insures that companies are able to detect problems anywhere in the delivery chain, before end users, customers, and your business are impacted.
This webinar will provide evidence of the revenue impact of poor cloud application performance and service level management, and will present an integrated cross-domain services and application performance management strategy that will dramatically improve the business results that you achieve with Cloud Computing. The information will be of use to anyone who is responsible for the successful execution of their company’s cloud strategy, both in the line-of-business and IT.
Dennis Drogseth, Vice President, Enterprise Management Associates, Inc and Richard Stone, Compuware’s Cloud Solutions Manager talk about:
• Research results showing how and where companies are benefitting most, and conversely where they’ve had issues, or had to rethink and redirect their cloud initiatives
• Best practices to adopt – and pitfalls to avoid – that will enable you to get cloud deployments right the first time from both a process and an APM perspective

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.
Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
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 ‘mechanical’ 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!
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:
The Art of the Pitch: WordPress Relationships and SalesLaura Byrne

27. Page Speed Rules for Mobile
1. Use an Application Cache
2. Defer parsing of JavaScript
3. Make landing page redirects cacheable
4. Prefer touch events
27
28. 1. Use an Application Cache
• Problem:
• Very high initial connection cost
• 2.5 seconds
• Solution:
• HTML5 Application Cache
HTML
<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<html manifest="/my.manifest">
...
</html>
Cache Manifest
CACHE MANIFEST
/my.js
/my.css
...
28
29. 2. Defer parsing of JavaScript
• Problem:
• Cost of parsing JavaScript about 1 millisecond per kilobyte
• Want to load JS up front to reduce round trips
• Solution:
• Defer parsing of JavaScript until it is needed
• Load JS in string literals, eval on demand

Dojo 102 99
Prototype 160 119
Jquery-UI 195 181

30. 3. Make landing page redirects cacheable
• Problem:
• Landing page redirect chain
• Example
example.com ->
www.example.com ->
m.example.com ->
www.example.com/m
• User must wait multiple RTTs on every visit to the page
• Solution:
• Make these redirects browser cacheable
• Cache-Control: private, max-age > 0
30
31. 4. Prefer touch events
• Problem:
• onclick event has 300-500ms delay on touch devices
• Solution:
• ontouch events have no delay
• but be mindful about double-click, pinch-zoom
Try it yourself on a touch-enabled device:
