Jisc RSC Eastern VLE forum Nov 2012 'Going mobile'

JISC RSC Eastern

Session presented at the 2nd IndicThreads.com Conference on Cloud Computing held in Pune, India on 3-4 June 2011. http://CloudComputing.IndicThreads.com Abstract: There are many persistence frameworks on Google App Engine. Google has its low-level datastore API, then there are standards based frameworks like JPA and there are more frameworks like Objectify-Appengine specifically for Google App Engine. Managing persistence is still a challenge. With so many options, we face the dilemma of choosing right framework for the application we are building. Objectify-Appengine extends the convenience of NoSql by providing a Hibernate-style mapping layer between your application and GAE datastore. In this session I will cover handling persistence on Google App Engine with Objectify-Appengine. At one hand Google datastore API is low level and at the other there are standard based frameworks like JPA/JDO. Objectify-Appengine tries to hit the sweet spot between the two. Takeaways for the Audience Audience will see the capabilities of Objectify-Appengine and how can they leverage it to manage persistence on Google App Engine. The best practises to be followed when using Objectify, and demo of an application built on Objectify-Appengine. Speaker:Meetu Maltiar is a Senior Consultant at Inphina. In his six year experience he has worked as Software developer, Knowledge Manager and as a Mentor. He is passionate about technology and has experience in product development as well as services. He has experience on Google App Engine and has migrated existing applications to cloud and he has also worked on Green-field projects. He likes to invest his time in exploring upcoming languages like Scala and technology frameworks like GridGain, Esper and Hadoop and extensively blogs about them.

Transform Your Business Through Communication and Collaboration

Sirius

It all comes back to a simple concept: What you give your employees is what you get from them. A robust collaboration solution can attract a talented pool of potential employees while driving greater engagement and corresponding business performance. Conversely, an antiquated communication system can frustrate talented employees and ultimately drive them away. Inevitably, our work lives intersect with our personal lives. Globalization drives cross border collaboration. Employees want to create, innovate, and interact in teams and with each other while retaining the flexibility of working from anywhere, anytime and on any device. A collaboration solution that provides an optimal end user experience while driving organizational value becomes a competitive differentiator to the business. And that’s where UC collaboration is worth its weight in gold.

Research on Architecting Microservices: Trends, Focus, and Potential for Indu...

Paolo Di Francesco

5th of April 2017. My presentation done at the 14th International Conference on Software Architecture (ICSA), Gothenburg, Sweden. Microservices are a new trend rising fast from the enterprise world. Even though the design principles around microservices have been identified, it is difficult to have a clear view of existing research solutions for architecting microservices. A systematic mapping study methodology has been used to identify, classify, and evaluate the current state of the art on architecting microservices from the following three perspectives: publication trends, focus of research, and potential for industrial adoption. More specifically, we systematically define a classification framework for categorizing the research on architecting microservices and we rigorously apply it to the 71 selected studies. We synthesize the obtained data and produce a clear overview of the state of the art. This gives a solid basis to plan for future research and applications of architecting microservices.

The People Model & Cloud Transformation A successful cloud-transformation journey incorporates three pillars: people, process, and technology. Far too often, organizations focus on process improvements and technology implementation, but ignore the human aspect. Many leaders acknowledge that the first two are easy to modify, while influencing culture is more difficult. This session covers best-practice methods meant to empower customers to address this challenge. Learn about roles and responsibilities germane to the transition and post-cloud adoption phase. Assess your organization’s gaps among the requisite skills and competencies. Build effective training models. And shape an effective DevOps culture.

This document discusses building cloud services based on open standards and open technologies. It makes three main points: 1. Cloud technologies and services are central to digitization, providing cognitive solutions to physical systems through open cloud platforms, hybrid cloud services, and cloud-based software, infrastructure, and platform services. 2. Cloud services are primarily built on technical standards for basic IT, cloud-specific standards, cybersecurity standards, and open source platforms, with competitive differentiators relating to offerings built on top of these open technologies. 3. The way forward is to rely on global and international standards developed through open, bottom-up processes; promote implementation of standards through organizations like ETSI, OASIS, and
