Building a Data Streaming Center of Excellence With Steve Gonzalez and Derek ...HostedbyConfluent
Building a Data Streaming Center of Excellence With Steve Gonzalez and Derek Kane | Current 2022
How do you accelerate success with data streaming at your organization? After developing an interest and recognizing the potential value in using Data Streaming technologies like Apache Kafka, organizations often struggle with implementing best practices at scale, and subsequently struggle in navigating the path to desired returns on investment (ROI).
This talk explores a solution to overcome common roadblocks and delays to realizing value at your organization - building a Data Streaming Center of Excellence (CoE). We will discuss the keys to success including workstreams and services required of a CoE, repeatable standards and guidance, supporting a community of practice, and more. You will see examples of use case templates, runbooks and documentation, team structures, and in general garner a better understanding of how you may implement a CoE given your unique culture, priorities, and streaming maturity level.
This will be an introductory-level talk that appeals to technical as well as non-technical personnel considering or building a central shared service offering for an organization. It is also ideal for managers or executives wondering how they might drive accelerated, large-scale adoption of data streaming across their enterprise in a governed, repeatable fashion.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

33. • Devbridge team began work on an existing
client product with considerable debt
• Sequenced technical module work according
to business priority
• Reduced delays on new feature development
from 12 months to 3 months
• New revenue streams available as each
feature area was “unlocked” on the back-end
Strategic approach for services refactoring
overhaul
De-risking with up-front investment
for complex features
34. • Goal: determine whether an existing tool will
generate enough demand in a new market
• Implemented a representative subset of
functions for an industry event
• Client was able to gather actual user intel to
decide whether to continue with the current
path or pivot to invest in other features
Releasing a portion of features to test a new market
Choosing to incur good debt as an
early-to-market strategy
35. • Mobile apps (iOS and Android) which
duplicated web features and required
significant maintenance
• Team recommended a shift to Progressive
Web App based on industry trends
• Benefits: up to 75% reduction in ongoing
maintenance, increased speed to market
Spinning an industry shift to PWA to a
client’s advantage
Minimizing or capitalizing on impact
of technology shifts
36. • Tendency to postpone long-term decisions leads
to increased total cost of ownership
• Capture intentions and implications of future
vision early
• Include debt work in each release to future proof
your product, reduce refactoring, and prevent
later architectural blockers
• Example: Data model planning for globalization
accounting for language selection, storing
multiple translations, date formats
Expansion and scalability
Spreading costs of scalability and
technical maturity across multiple releases
