WSO2Con USA 2015: Revolutionizing WSO2 PaaS with Kubernetes & App FactoryWSO2
Containerization is now becoming the most efficient way of developing and deploying software solutions in the cloud. It provides means of running applications with less resource usage, fast startup times, portability across machines, lightweight & layered container images, container image registries, multi-tenancy and many more additional advantages. Docker embraced this space by fulfilling the above requirements and attracting the industry within a very short period of time. Google solved container cluster management features by initiating the Kubernetes project over a decade of experience on running container technologies at scale. Now Kubernetes is in the process of adding more advanced PaaS features such as autoscaling, multicloud or region deployments and composite application model with best of breed ideas and practices from the community.
WSO2 App Factory and WSO2 App Cloud are application Platform as a Service (aPaaS) that provide application development and hosting deployed through these technologies. In this tutorial we will demonstrate how WSO2 products can be run on Kubernetes and the latest WSO2 App Cloud features.
When you're migrating applications and data to the cloud, you want to use the cloud services that best meet your needs so your migration goes as smoothly as possible. In order to ensure you get the most out of the cloud once migrated, you need to know that you are getting as many of the advantages of the cloud as possible.

A Community-based, Graph API Framework to Integrate and Orchestrate Cloud-Bas...Michael Petychakis
The ever-accelerating growth of cloud-based services (CBS) and the prevalence of multi-sided business models have distributed users’ data across different data silos that hinder mobile applications development and sustainability. The present paper aims at describing an open framework that abstracts functionality from CBSs through a common Graph, RESTful API, which manages calls among various CBS APIs and syndicates responses under a common standardized format. Combining this conceptual framework with semantically enriched modeling, the implemented platform allows a community of developers to govern, extend and main-tain the Graph API and consequently, applications to access a plethora of CBSs through a single point of access. Building on the experience of third-party solutions that mash-up data from different services in their API, the proposed approach goes beyond the state-of-the art through its community-orientation, the API extensibility-by-design and the advanced context awareness and sophistication it provides to developers.
API Development involves designing, building, and implementing Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) that enable seamless communication and data exchange between different software systems. There are various types of APIs, including RESTful APIs, SOAP APIs, GraphQL, and WebSocket APIs, each serving specific purposes. API specifications, such as OpenAPI Specification (OAS) and GraphQL Schema Definition Language (SDL), define the structure and behavior of APIs. Documentation plays a crucial role in API development, providing clear instructions, examples, and troubleshooting guidance for developers who want to integrate with the API.

Bridge-Stage Framework for the Smartphone Application Development using HTML5ijsrd.com
Now a days, the Web has become an integral part of our everyday lives. The rapid growth of the smart phone market has brought the Web from our home desks to anywhere we are, and enabled us to access this vast source of information at any time. The mobile operating systems (OS) used by modern smart phones are too diverse such as Google's Android, Apple's iOS, Microsoft's Windows Phone, and so on. Smartphone application development is done using native platform such as iPhone using Objective-C, Android using Java, Windows Mobile using C# and so on. Therefore, a bridge stage framework which supports 'Write once and deploy everywhere' is required to support the development of Smartphone applications. This paper presents the HTML5-based bridge stage framework which uses Phone Gap and Web kit to support the development of Smartphone applications that are written as Web applications. A big problem with developing applications for mobile devices is platform fragmentation [6]. That means that there are many different mobile platforms that are further divided by the different versions available [5][2]. Users with older hardware are left without support and updates as newer devices are put out on the market [9]. This means that the developer has the choice between limiting the solutions and only aim for a minor part of the spectra or to develop for more platforms to reach as many users as possible. To maximize the amount of possible users, the developer has to create an application for each platform and make sure that they are backwards compatible so that users with older devices can use them.

Historically, the practice of web archiving has involved various institutions and the development of various practices, approaches and tools. Among them, three main approaches to web archiving have been developed: web archive research using the Internet Archive and Wayback Machine, the practice of archiving special collections of websites, and the national approach of archiving webs of specific countries. These approaches and practices do not only reflect the time in which they were conceived in the history of web archiving, but also put forward distinct ways in which they may be used and consequently what type of historiographical research can be done with them. However, there are also limits to what these tools and practices offer. The purpose of this talk is to introduce the limits of doing research with the Internet Archive with existing tools such as the Wayback Machine and in addition, to show how digital methods are used to repurpose the Wayback Machine in order to go beyond the single-site historical research that is enabled by the Internet Archive. This will be illustrated in a case study on the Dutch blogosphere where by means of custom tools built on top of the Wayback Machine yearly snapshots of the historical Dutch blogosphere were created between 1999-2009. By reconstructing the interlinked set of blogs, the blogosphere, one can trace and map transitions in linking technologies and practices in the Dutch blogosphere over time. This approach allows for studying the emergence and decline of blog platforms and social media platforms within the blogosphere and for investigating local blog cultures.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

2. API introduction
An application programming interface (API) is a source
code based specification intended to be used as an
interface by software components to communicate with
each other. An API may include specifications for
routines, data structures,object classes, and variables.
(Wikipedia)
3. API
Application Programming Interface
“this refers to a set of tools that developers can use to
access structured data.” (boyd and Crawford)
“Machine-facing interfaces for your application” p. 331
“software interface to your website” p. 332
“weaving the Guardian into the fabric of the Web” p. 331
4. Web API / web service
When used in the context of web development, an API
is typically a defined set of Hypertext Transfer Protocol
(HTTP) request messages, along with a definition of the
structure of response messages, which is usually in an
Extensible Markup Language (XML) or JavaScript Object
Notation (JSON) format. While "Web API" is virtually a
synonym for web service, the recent trend (so-called
Web 2.0) has been moving away from Simple Object
Access Protocol (SOAP) based services towards more
direct Representational State Transfer (REST) style
communications.[5] Web APIs allow the combination of
multiple services into new applications known as
mashups.[6] - (Wikipedia)
5. The web as platform
Historically, some types of software like desktop
operating systems have been called 'platforms' because
through their APIs they provide the foundation on which
other programs are built. The phrase 'web as platform'
refers to fact that as web sites start providing their own
APIs, they too are becoming a platform on which other
programs can be built. (Programmableweb)
6. Programmable web
Definitionally, a “platform” is a system that can be
reprogrammed and therefore customized by outside
developers—users—and in that way, adapted to
countless needs and niches that the platform’s original
developers could not have possibly contemplated, much
less had time to accommodate.
[T]he key term in the definition of platform is
‘programmed’. If you can program it, then it’s a
platform. If you can’t, then it’s not. - Marc Andreessen

36. #4 APIs and access
Twitter Inc. makes a fraction of its material available to
the public through its APIs. The ‘firehose’ theoretically
contains all public tweets ever posted and explicitly
excludes any tweet that a user chose to make private or
‘protected.’ Yet, some publicly accessible tweets are
also missing from the firehose. Although a handful of
companies and startups have access to the firehose,
very few researchers have this level of access. (boyd
and Crawford 2011)
37. # 5 ethics: APIs “versus” scraping
There are different data gathering methods: The API is
the polite way of gathering data and scraping could be
considered the impolite way of harnessing data: “You
can arrange digital research methods on a spectrum of
niceness. On the one hand you use the industry-
provided API. On the other you scrape Facebook for all
it is worth.”(Helmond & Sandvig 2010)
Scrapers stand in complex relations to API’s -
compared against the industry provided (limited) APIs,
scrapers may be viewed as the less polite variant of
data collection and in some cases may works against
copyright, terms of service, and “trespass to chattels”.
