My colleague Elaine Rosenberg has created a video that
shows how to get up and running with the Neo4j Sandbox.
We have several sandboxes with built in datasets such as
the Panama Papers and Russian Twitter
Trolls, but you can also create a blank
sandbox if you just want to play with
Neo4j and can't install locally.

This Week in Neo4j - 6th October 2018

In pre-production, there’s lots of tools that help optimizing your code: debuggers, CI/CD, load tests, etc. There’s even tools that automatically deploy them into production. Plus, engineers usually have a whole sprint as a time frame. Once you’re in production, things are a bit different and all that convenience is just not there for operators. They need to be able to pinpoint trouble spots within minutes. They have to identify the handful of bad requests out of thousands that allows for reproduction of the problem. And then, they are finally required to hand all that information over to the developers as convenient and as soon as possible. And nothing of that is automated. Performance monitoring, call-tracing and visualization are the concepts any developer should know about to be able to provide as much insight as possible into running systems. This session introduces open-source tools that allow devs and ops to work together much closer. To name just a few: * statsd / collectd * Zipkin * Spring-Cloud Sleuth * and some more For the sake of completeness and to also cover the Enterprise user-space, the main commercial vendors in that space will also be mentioned real quick. After that session, you’ll see new ideas popping up inside your head and already have all the knowledge you need to directly jump into planning and implementation.

At Systematic we are using Groovy technologies to build a fairly standard 4-tier Java web application for a customer. This lecture describes our experience. We will tell you about the choices we made, how we built up knowledge about Groovy, what our biggest mistake was, and how we dealt with it. We used Grails for the user interface, pure Groovy for implementing web services, Geb for automating tests of the user interface, and Spock for automated tests in general. We will tell you where these technologies provided great benefits, and where they were the source of trouble and frustration. This lecture does not presuppose deep knowledge about Grails and Groovy. It should be of interest to any professional software developer who is considering replacing Java with Grails and Groovy. Systematic A/S is a Danish software house headquartered in Århus. We employ about 450 people in 7 nations. We provide solutions for the defence, healthcare and public sector.

This Week in Neo4j - 9th June 2018

Neo4j

This weekly newsletter from Neo4j discusses recent news and developments in the graph database community, including a screencast demonstrating the GRANDstack starter kit for building full stack applications with GraphQL, React, Apollo and Neo4j, the release of a new version of the Py2neo Python driver library, and several blog posts about loading external data into Neo4j from APIs, Powershell documentation, and the Lightning payment network.

Talk on the GitLab Commit 2020: Join us to learn how we helped one of the largest financial services institutions in the world shape their cloud strategy using GitLab and Terraform. Starting on a cloud journey brings so many questions around resource provisioning & management, security, compliance, how to enable the team with easy access to definitions, and keep everyone updated. As we know, the most reliable source of truth is the code, so the use of infrastructure as code paired with an inner-source process is a solid foundation.

EGit is an Eclipse plugin that allows developers to use the distributed revision control system Git within Eclipse. It is built on top of JGit, a lightweight Java library implementation of Git. The goal is for EGit and JGit to improve Git tooling for the Eclipse community. Gerrit is also introduced as a code review system that integrates with Git and provides access control and workflows for code reviews.

Scalable Web Applications with 100% open source

Aarno Aukia

The document summarizes a presentation about running scalable web applications using Docker, Kubernetes, and OpenShift. It introduces the speaker, Aarno Aukia from VSHN, and discusses how web applications were previously run using virtual servers and configuration management tools. It outlines shortcomings of this approach and desires for a better solution. The document then explains what Docker, Kubernetes, and OpenShift are and how they address the previous issues by enabling containerization, orchestration, and application deployment in a self-service manner. It provides examples of using these tools and promotes VSHN's managed platform called APPUiO.

R, Git, Github, and CI

Wush Wu

n this talk, I will take the preparation of tutorial program in data science conference 2014 as an example and share some experience of R, Git, Github and CI(jenkins). The rating of our tutorial exceeds 4.2 (1 ~ 5). Some speakers and assistants agree that the assistant package "DSC2014Tutorial" improves the preparation and the teaching. Therefore, I would like to share the experience to establish such an working environment.

TDC 2016 Floripa - Testando APIs REST com Supertest e Promises

Stefan Teixeira

This document discusses using Supertest and Promises to test REST APIs. Supertest is a simple library created by TJ Holowaychuk that allows testing of HTTP requests on an Express server without needing to start the server. It is independent of any test runner. The document provides examples of GET and POST requests. It also introduces supertest-as-promised, which allows writing tests with Promises to avoid "callback hell". An example project for demonstrating Supertest is linked. In conclusion, the author thanks the audience.
