Windows Azure Mobile Services, Connecting Cross Platform DevicesKristof Rennen
People are getting more and more connected and moving away from computers to using more mobile devices than ever before. Tablets, phones, slates are becoming the new computers.
All these devices and applications also need data, synchronization, security and much more. The broad reach, the number of devices and apps and the big amount of different platforms existing today, are pushing the needs for scalable and high available solutions running on a solid cloud platform, like Windows Azure.
One of the killer features of Windows Azure is WAMS, the Windows Azure Mobile Services. A Solid platform to connect cross platform devices and to open up a big set of features needed to build mobile applications.
In this session we will give you an introduction to WAMS, show you its true power and demonstrate how it can be used on multiple platforms to have one common way of connectivity. Managing and opening up your data to mobile users, while keeping the flexibility of validation and queries. Securing your applications by enabling authentication and authorization and by allowing the user to do single sign on or to use his favorite identity provider like Live, Facebook or Twitter. Enabling standard communication means like email and SMS, directly from your own application. And last but not least, enriching applications using push notifications, to send information from server to client and to notify users about new content.

Building microservices with azure functionsJustin Maurer
Getting started in Microservice can be a steep hill to climb, but with Azure Functions we can begin building them within minutes. Azure Functions is a "serverless" computing offering, that allows you to run small bits of JavaScript, C#, Python, PHP, Bash, Batch, and PowerShell that is managed by Azure to scale as needed. In this talk we will cover what are the best applications for Azure Functions, where they fit amongst the many options in cloud computing and go over specific use cases, including building a completely serverless backend for a web application and how it can be used for home automation.
This slide deck provides the basics of how to build an Azure Logic App. This presentation was presented by Kuppurasu Nagaraj, a Microsoft MVP during the TechMeet360 event organized by BizTalk360, held on December 17, 2016 at Coimbatore.
Integrating SaaS application using Microsoft’s Azure App Service PlatformBizTalk360
Software as a Service applications have made significant inroads into the enterprise. By nature all of these applications are on islands until you can start to exchange data between them and the rest of your on premise line-of-business applications. Using the Microsoft Azure App Service platform, organizations can integrate their SaaS applications like SalesForce, Service Now and SharePoint online by creating hybrid interfaces in the cloud using Microsoft Azure. In this session, Kent will demonstrate how organizations use the agility and scalability of the cloud to build these interfaces in a very quick and secure manner.
What to look for in an integration platformBizTalk360
The landscape for integration platforms continues to evolve. Cloud, Hybrid, Mobility, SaaS connectivity, API Management and MicroServices are introducing new architectural patterns and requirements. These new capabilities are also introducing new entrants in the integration platform industry. For customers who are looking to adopt a new integration platform, this can be an overwhelming and confusing situation. In this talk, Kent will take a requirements driven approach when selecting an integration platform.
Architecting for Scalable and Usable Web Applications
As Enterprises and Software Vendors start to develop more and more applications on the Internet there is an increasing importance to architect these applications for both growth and for the optimal user experience. Software + Services allows you to develop fantastic applications, but there are pitfalls with architecting the applications in the wrong way.
Our Central Region Architect Evangelists will lead us through two great discussions on scaling web applications and creating the best possible user experience.
Session 1: Architecting for Scalable Web Applications In this session we will explore the patterns that typical applications follow as their scalability needs grow due to increased demand. We will also discuss best practices from companies that have gone up the scalability curve like Amazon.com, MySpace and Flickr. We will discuss the common bottlenecks that prevent scalability as well as how to tackle tough issues like state management in a application that is scaled across servers and even data centers. We will also discuss the “scale later” philosophy and how it should be accompanied by a solid plan to scale your applications.
Session 2: Architecting for Usable Web Applications In this session we will discuss how to architect your application with the user in mind. We have more choices than ever before for developing applications (Traditional Web Apps, AJAX, RIA technologies like Flex and Microsoft Silverlight and even smart clients) and picking the technology is only part of the solution. The architecture of the application must be designed correctly to provide a pleasing user experience and (potentially) to add new and interesting clients in the future.

Evolution of application integration. From Webservice to REST, Microservices, loosely coupled applications. How to use Low Code Development platforms to implement digital transformation in your compamy
Operating Microservices at Hyperscale — Tech in Asia PDC 2019Donnie Prakoso
Presented at Tech in Asia PDC 2019 in Jakarta.
Most developers today are adopting a microservices based application design. Microservices can provide higher system reliability, fine-grained scalability, and faster development cycles. At hyperscale (thousands to millions of requests per second), however, additional thought, careful design, and greater operational rigor are required. In this session, learn fundamental design principles and best practices for hyperscale applications.
You have heard how containers are great for running microservices, but running and managing large scale applications with microservices architectures is hard and often requires operating complex container management infrastructure. So what exactly is needed to get microservices to run in production at scale?
In this session, we will explore the reasoning and concepts behind microservices and how containers simplify building microservices based applications, and we will walk through a number of patterns used by our customers to run their microservices platforms. We will also dive deep into some of the challenges of running microservices, such as load balancing, service discovery, and secrets management, and we’ll see how Amazon EC2 Container Service (ECS) can help address them. We will also demo how you can easily deploy complex microservices applications using Amazon ECS.
This session will begin with a short recap of how we created systems over the past 20 years, up to the current idea of building systems, using a Microservices architecture. What is a Microservices architecture and how does it differ from a Service-Oriented Architecture? Should you use traditional REST APIs to integrate services with each eachother in a Microservcies Architecture? Or is it better to use a more loosely-coupled protocol? Answers to these and many other questions are provided. The talk will show how a distributed log (event hub) can help to create a central, persistent history of events and what benefits we achieve from doing so. Apache Kafka is a perfect match for building such an asynchronous, loosely-coupled event-driven backbone. Events trigger processing logic, which can be implemented in a more traditional as well as in a stream processing fashion. The talk shows the difference between a request-driven and event-driven communication and answers when to use which. It highlights how a modern stream processing systems can be used to hold state both internally as well as in a database and how this state can be used to further increase independence of other services, the primary goal of a Microservices architecture.

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.

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing DaysKari Kakkonen
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.
