A brief introduction to get you started in working with Perl's internal API. This presentation is a work in progress.
Code samples: http://github.com/friedo/perl-api-terror
These are slides from a lecture on Red Flags in Programming that took place at an Israeli Open Source Developers meeting.
Red flags in programming are signs that you likely made a mistake with your application design or code.
Noticing and avoiding these mistakes help us write better code, at any language.
The subject related to mostly dynamic (higher level) languages, even though the sample code is in Perl.
These are the slides I was using when delivering a short talk in Vienna PHP. The talk took place in Vienna on September 22th. More information about the PHP course I deliver can be found at php.course.lifemichael.com
Create your own PHP extension, step by step - phpDay 2012 VeronaPatrick Allaert
Ever been interested by contributing to the PHP core team?
In this workshop you will not only learn how (easy it is) to create your own PHP extension from scratch but you will also strengthen your knowledge of PHP by disecting its internals.
After this workshop, you will be able to create an extension on your own, whether it is to optimize the most CPU intensive parts of your code, to create new bindings to C libraries or just to leverage your PHP knowledge.
And what if PHP was a web framework for the C developer?
This workshop requires a bit of C knowledge and preferably a *nix system.
PHP 8.1 brings Enums, one of the most requested features in PHP.
Enums, or Enumerations, allow creating strict and type-safe structures for fixed values. An Enum structure can hold a number of values that can also be backed with integer or string values.
In this comprehensive session, we will discover what Enums are, why they are useful, how to apply them on our applications, and things to watch out for when using Enums.
PHP 8.0 comes with many long-awaited features: A just-in-time compiler, attributes, union types, and named arguments are just a small part of the list. As a major version, it also includes some backward-incompatible changes, which are centered around stricter error handling and enhanced type safety. Let's have an overview of the important changes in PHP 8.0 and how they might affect you!
PHP 8.0 is expected to be released by the end of the year, so it’s time to take a first look at the next major version of PHP. Attributes, union types, and a just-in-time compiler are likely the flagship features of this release, but there are many more improvements to be excited about. As PHP 8.0 is a major version, this release also includes backwards-incompatible changes, many of which are centered around stricter error handling and more type safety.
This talk will discuss new features already implemented in PHP 8, backwards-compatibility breaks to watch out for, as well as some features that are still under discussion.
PHP 7 is on track, ready to hit the road later this year. What does it bring?
What other alternative do we have in the PHP World? Be from alternative implementations point of views, like hhvm or other, or do we have existing solutions to speed up PHP already? Using the existing versions?
Dealing with Legacy Perl Code - Peter ScottO'Reilly Media
Peter Scott, author of the O'Reilly School of Technology's Perl Programming Certificate series, talks about how to deal with "legacy" Perl code - written by someone else, or maybe even yourself when you were younger and less wise.
Sven and I are going to classify Xtext compared to other concepts and frameworks and demonstrate its capabilities with a refined version of an example I presented in London the week before. After that we discuss the versatile possibilities for extending and customizing the framework and finish with an exciting outlook.

Crafting Quality PHP Applications (PHP Joburg Oct 2019)James Titcumb
This prototype works, but it’s not pretty, and now it’s in production. That legacy application really needs some TLC. Where do we start? When creating long lived applications, it’s imperative to focus on good practices. The solution is to improve the whole development life cycle; from planning, better coding and testing, to automation, peer review and more. In this talk, we’ll take a quick look into each of these areas, looking at how we can make positive, actionable change in our workflow.
This talk examines four real-world use cases for MongoDB document-based data modeling. We examine the implications of several possible solutions for each problem.
This talk introduces the features of MongoDB by demonstrating how one can build a simple library application. The talk will cover the basics of MongoDB's document model, query language, and API.

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).

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.
Generating a custom Ruby SDK for your web service or Rails API using Smithyg2nightmarescribd
Have you ever wanted a Ruby client API to communicate with your web service? Smithy is a protocol-agnostic language for defining services and SDKs. Smithy Ruby is an implementation of Smithy that generates a Ruby SDK using a Smithy model. In this talk, we will explore Smithy and Smithy Ruby to learn how to generate custom feature-rich SDKs that can communicate with any web service, such as a Rails JSON API.

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.

62. What is XS?
perldoc perlxs:
XS is an interface description file format used to create an
extension interface between Perl and C code (or a C library)
which one wishes to use with Perl. The XS interface is
combined with the library to create a new library which can
then be either dynamically loaded or statically linked into
perl. The XS interface description is written in the XS
language and is the core component of the Perl extension
interface.
63.
64. XS is a specialized templating
language for C.
