Hungarian Web Conference: HTML5 beyond the hype - let's make it work!Christian Heilmann
We're past the honeymoon period of HTML5 by now. The excitement of inflated promises is over and we start wondering what to do – use HTML5 or just build an iOS app instead? In this talk Chris Heilmann of Mozilla will show what HTML5 is really good for, what its problems are, what causes a lot of these problems and how new operating systems like Firefox OS work and conversion tools like PhoneGap work around these issues. You'll see the now of HTML5 and what is cooking in the kitchens of browser makers and standards bodies that will developing and deploying apps cross-platform much easier than it is now. We have a lot of tools at our disposal, we simply need to dare to use them.
Stefan Judis "Did we(b development) lose the right direction?"Fwdays
Keeping up with the state of web technology is one of the biggest challenges for us developers today. We invent new tools; we define new best practices, everything’s new, always... And we do all that for good user experience! We do all that to build the best possible web – it’s all about our users.
But is it, really? Or do developers like to play with technology secretly loving the new and shiny? Or do we only pretend that it’s about users, and behind closed doors, it’s developer experience that matters to us? Did we lose direction? Is it time for a critical look at the state of the web and the role JavaScript plays in it?

Real Time Stream Processing with KSQL and KafkaDavid Peterson
Unordered, unbounded and massive datasets are increasingly common in day-to-day business. Using this to your advantage is incredibly difficult with current system designs. We are stuck in a model where we can only take advantage of this *after* it has happened. Many times, this is too late to be useful in the enterprise.
KSQL is a streaming SQL engine for Apache Kafka. KSQL lowers the entry bar to the world of stream processing, providing a simple and completely interactive SQL interface for processing data in Kafka. KSQL (like Kafka) is open-source, distributed, scalable, and reliable.
A real time Kafka platform moves your data up the stack, closer to the heart of your business, allowing you to build scalable, mission-critical services by quickly deploying SQL-like queries in a severless pattern.
This talk will highlight key use cases for real time data, stream processing with KSQL: Real time analytics, security and anomaly detection, real time ETL / data integration, Internet of Things, application development, and deploying Machine Learning models with KSQL.
Real time data and stream processing means that Kafka is just as important to the disrupted as it is to the disruptors.
Personalisation in the Open Marketing CloudDavid Peterson
The days of “one-size-fits-all” marketing are over, and hyper-personalisation is the new norm. Digital marketers and site owners are being asked to do more with less to engage customers, segment their audience, and offer highly tailored content. Today’s sophisticated consumers, thanks to personalised sites like Netflix or Amazon, are accustomed to a new level of engagement that seems to have been built with them in mind.
Join me to learn how Acquia is empowering marketers and site builders to build personalised digital experiences from the ground up with adaptive learning, new and engaging campaigns and content, increased conversions and revenue, and improved engagement.

Architecting govCMS: Australian Government as a Service - David Peterson
The Australian Federal Government has taken the revolutionary step of standardising on Drupal in public cloud. govCMS is a 'Whole of Government' solution that any federal or state level agency can join, leveraging the infrastructure, knowledge and experience of the collective government.
By pioneering this solution, the Australian Government are putting a stake in the ground and challenging the traditional private, proprietary, closed source approaches taken in the past. This opens up new possibilities for governments around the World in their search for an ideal platform to interact with their citizens.
Better User Experience through Personalisation in DrupalDavid Peterson
Personalisation means better communication to your site visitors. We all know that one size doesn't fit all and this is very true for content. A message that is important to me might be of no consequence to you.
Many competing CMS systems have built-in Personalisation. These are powerful, but often complex beasts; yet many clients want this power. How can this be achieved in Drupal? How can Drupal do it better than the other big, expensive, proprietary systems?
I will present the latest techniques in the Personalisation space and how they can be deeply integrated into your Drupal website.
Topics Covered:
- Explicit Personalisation (logged in users)
- Implicit Personalisation (anonymous users)
- Presenting content to users based on:
geo-location
user device
time-of-day
time-of-week
browsing patterns
and more...

Bringing History Alive: Telling stories with Linked Data and open source toolsDavid Peterson
The Australian War Memorial is connecting and enriching online archives and collections toward building a platform for telling history. Through Drupal 7 and Linked Data, the Memorial intends to develop tools that designers, researchers and historians can use to help find new ways of building historical narratives.
We will demonstrate some early prototypes and experiments, key uses of Linked Data, practical publishing tools and discuss how this work is unfolding inside one of Australia’s major collecting institutions.
A Drupal case study on developing the Australian Broadcasting Corporation's Dig Music website. I gave this talk at Drupal Downunder #ddu2011 in Brisbane, Australia (Jan 23, 2011).
I discuss how the Semantic Web was used to create a real time snapshot of a musical artist that is pulled live from the digital radio broadcast.
I also talk about performance issues we encountered and ways that they were overcome.
Presented at Web Directions South 09
The ABC launched three new socially networked digital radio websites: ABC Dig Music, ABC Jazz and ABC Country in July 2009. They are the first of several ABC projects involving content aggregation. As well as having slick, highly usable designs the music platform integrates with various sources including MusicBrainz, YouTube, Last.fm and Wikipedia. This aggregation functionality graphically illustrates the possibilities of Semantic Web technology for an editorial organisation such as the ABC.
PHP Frameworks: I want to break free (IPC Berlin 2024)Ralf Eggert
In this presentation, we examine the challenges and limitations of relying too heavily on PHP frameworks in web development. We discuss the history of PHP and its frameworks to understand how this dependence has evolved. The focus will be on providing concrete tips and strategies to reduce reliance on these frameworks, based on real-world examples and practical considerations. The goal is to equip developers with the skills and knowledge to create more flexible and future-proof web applications. We'll explore the importance of maintaining autonomy in a rapidly changing tech landscape and how to make informed decisions in PHP development.
This talk is aimed at encouraging a more independent approach to using PHP frameworks, moving towards a more flexible and future-proof approach to PHP development.

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.
