What will you learn?
The webinar, created by our Founder and CEO, Andy Kucharski, is a highly accessible, information-rich review on the ways Drupal site performance can be radically improved. Some of the main topics we will cover include:
What is slow site speed?
What tools to use to diagnose it.
Plus six key improvements to make Drupal “run fast!”
And if that’s not already enough, we will also share some best practices monitoring tips for making sure you know how the Drupal server is performing 24/7.
Relational databases power most applications, but new use-cases have requirements that they are not well suited for.
That's why new approaches like graph databases are used to handle join-heavy, highly-connected and realtime aspects of your applications.
This talk compares relational and graph databases, show similarities and important differences.
We do a hands-on, deep-dive into ease of data modeling and structural evolution, massive data import and high performance querying with Neo4j, the most popular graph database.
I demonstrate a useful tool which makes data import from existing relational databases with a non-denormalized ER-model a "one click"-experience.
Which leaves biggest challenge for people coming from a relational background is to adapt some of their existing database experience to new ways of thinking.
Is your team drowning in a sea of files? Do they spend much of their day finding files for other people? A Digital Asset Manager (DAM) can help your team stay organised, share files effectively, and enable everyone to find what they need without effort.
Learn from worldwide companies like Paperchase, The National Library or The Courtauld Institute of Art, who are now using DAM to stay ahead of the game.

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).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle.

Our core business units, Licensing and Art Consulting, offer our collections through our portal with ecommerce website and through a global network of distributors. Our organization is a comparative small one without dedicated IT staff, our staff is spread geographically to cover our main markets – North America and Europe - therefore our investment in critical business applications and underlying hardware require low levels of maintenance and high levels of reliability and uptime. With our in-house IT skillset and assistance of external providers such as Extensis we have been able to implement a sophisticated platform and subsequently develop a state-of-the-art platform to support and drive our business.In Transit Images has a core headcount of approx. 12 at any time with 3 people dedicated to related areas, supplemented with a web development team of 10.
My role as Managing Director is to drive all business aspects (finances, IT, marketing, strategy, sales and business development – clients and channels) of In Transit Images including IT, with a background in IT as a business consultant at IBM my skillset was automatically useful to lay out the roadmap for determining, selecting, implementing and rolling out the aforementioned IT environment. Familiarity with the jargon and concepts used made interacting with a spectrum of suppliers – application and web developers, hardware suppliers – easier.
The majority of our staff has a background in commercial, fine-art and stock photography and we managed our collections that way as well – a studio workflow. Starting to manage our first commercial assets in 2010 we quickly figured out that there were major differences between a photography workflow and DAM workflow, as the first one creates and the second manages, initially we managed In Transit Images’ assets with Adobe Lightroom 2 occasionally combined with Adobe Photoshop and good old-fashioned spreadsheets. Major shortcomings of this workflow presented itself in inefficiency, fragmentation, inconsistency, duplicate and increased manual processes.Anecdote – As requests for specific images / subjects increased, we had to rely on the search capability of the application in our workflow – Lightroom – this led to hectic searches for clients that required last minute input on the availability of certain images. We found ourselves sitting behind desks performing these searches more and more rather than driving the business and making sales.With the accumulation of assets a bottleneck was forming between managing and formatting these assets on one side and offering and commercializing the assets to the marketplace, it depended solely on manpower to manually process each file therefore increasing costs and overhead over limited startup revenues.
[Question for Ed to interject: When you receive images from the Photographers, do they images contain any embedded metadata?]
In late 2010, after finalizing a complete inventory of current and future needs we determined that our business solution required RSA, should provide web and desktop clients, be available on PC and MAC environments and accommodate growth up to 1 million assets.In addition feature a sensible ROI and a roadmap for future development (dynamic platform). This narrowed down rapidly to only one of-the-shelf solution that offered customization capabilities; Portfolio Server. This only provided us with a direction to our vision however this was only the first step of many we had to make. We would need to overhaul our workflow, keep in mind all technical requirements past, current and future while being aware of the business side of all, cost vs. benefit, investment vs. returns.
Upon shortlisting and selecting Portfolio Server we approached it as any regular implementation however it pushed us to consider several new factors not faced before, mainly assigning task sets to certain staff members – and in Portfolio Server - and file organization on our server.The initial installation of the core application took about 5 days plus about 4 weeks of implementing the workflow and tweaking the application. By August 2011 Portfolio Server was up-and-running internally and informally providing some clients with a look into our collections.Concurrently to the implementation in 2011 we identified that a coupling of the Portfolio Server database with our future portal / website would be essential to conducting and driving our business onwards. The then current version of Portfolio Server had no real API available however the flexibility of the application signaled us there were possibilities in developing such a needed API, if needed custom.[Ed to interject to explain API – poll question 1 about other systems to integrate]
Our current catalogs contain 85k assets with an average file size of 50-150 Mb, running on 4 servers – 1 on-site and 3 in networked datacenters – A primary and secondary application server, mail-server and web-server respectably. The primary application server running Extensis Portfolio Server is used as an internal workhorse accessed by staff, distributors and large clients but also for adding assets and metadata management. 10 People can be logged on to this server at any given time all accessing our catalogs, logon can take place through web clients or desktop clients within a VPN. This server replicates its assets with the secondary application server running an additional Extensis Portfolio Server license to feed the webserver – running our portal – with all assets available for ecommerce on our website. This setup provides us with physical load balancing and separation of activities throughout In Transit Images.[Question for Ed to interject: Do you have an expected rate of growth for the number of assets? For example, you expect to add an additional 25k assets each year for the next 3 years?]
Centralized DatabaseOne database as compared multiple smaller ones or derivatives or even copies. Knowing that there is only one version of any file in one database.Internal & External AccessibilityOur database is centrally available internally for search, modification, addition and other purposes and externally connected to our Web Portal through an API.Indexed Assets – Search OptionsCompared API with Portal / Website
Resource MultiplierRequiring less people to manage our digital assets, not monopolizing time of one or more staff members to handle manual requests. In addition the assigned staff members to DAM are able to work more efficient, multiplying their efforts compared to previous scenarios.Reduced CostOur cost reduction from previous scenarioIncreased Revenues with Profit Maximization
