Disaster recovery shouldn’t run on late nights and coffee aloneJosh Mazgelis
Like a good cup of coffee, business continuity requires a thoughtful blend of ingredients. As manager of your IT infrastructure, you're as familiar with your computer inventory as you are with the handle of your coffee mug. Your business, your customers, however, see only applications and services and not the machines that make them possible. Understanding the relationship between business applications and the specific infrastructure that supports them is critical to creating a really tasty brew.
It could take two pots of coffee just to determine what you have in your computer inventory, much less why it might be important. In this discussion we will look at the disconnect between IT and business, and look at ways to help bridge the gap between the two.
Following this webinar, you’ll understand how business services can be connected with the underlying IT infrastructure so you can be assured your business continuity plans will always work. You might also win coffee – really good coffee! But you’ll have to join our chief storyteller, Josh Mazgelis, to find out:
-Why it's important to map business services to IT infrastructure
-Understanding risks to disaster recovery capabilities
-When to drink it black, and when to add cream and sugar

In WordPress 4.1 the “Theme Customizer” was changed to the “Customizer” with the intent that it could be used as the interface for any WordPress settings. Very few plugin authors, or even custom theme authors, are taking advantage of this built in options panel. Through some examples, we see how easy it is to use the Customizer API to add settings/options to WordPress for themes, plugins (or anything).

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!

Connector Corner: Automate dynamic content and events by pushing a buttonDianaGray10
Here is something new! In our next Connector Corner webinar, we will demonstrate how you can use a single workflow to:
Create a campaign using Mailchimp with merge tags/fields
Send an interactive Slack channel message (using buttons)
Have the message received by managers and peers along with a test email for review
But there’s more:
In a second workflow supporting the same use case, you’ll see:
Your campaign sent to target colleagues for approval
If the “Approve” button is clicked, a Jira/Zendesk ticket is created for the marketing design team
But—if the “Reject” button is pushed, colleagues will be alerted via Slack message
Join us to learn more about this new, human-in-the-loop capability, brought to you by Integration Service connectors.

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.
