"When all you have is a hammer, everything looks like Javascript" by Baldur Bjarnason (Unbound) for ebookcraft 2015, presented by BookNet Canada and eBOUND Canada - March 11, 2015
The OpenStack Horizon project provides a web-based User Interface to OpenStack services. It is constructed in two parts: (1) a core set of libraries for implementing a Dashboard; (2) the dashboard implementation that uses the core set of libraries.
Horizon uses python django — server side technology
Django is a wonderful framework, but a little dated. Pre-dates the rise in client-side and single page applications.
Javascript is used for enhancing the user experience
In the time since Horizon was first architected, there have been major advances in the design, and best practices for web applications. In particular, the use of more sophisticated and robust client-side javascript frameworks like BackboneJS, AngularJS, MeteorJS, have come to the fore.
These applications provide a much more responsive user experience, much cleaner separation between the client and server, enable configuration driven interfaces, and facilitate more modular testing.
This in turn, results in shorter development cycles, more testable software, and above all, a better user experience.
In this presentation, we share some of our recent work in re-architecting parts of Horizon to take advantage of these new technologies. We discuss some of the technologies we use, our application architecture, and some of the pitfalls to avoid.

Grails Launchpad - From Ground Zero to OrbitZachary Klein
Building upon Spring Boot, Grails offers a slew of developer-productivity enhancements without sacrificing any of the benefits of “vanilla” Boot. Whether you're altogether new to Grails, or your last Grails project was a 1.x-era scaffolding app, this workshop will help you (re)discover the power and agility of this dynamic web framework.
We'll start from scratch with the latest version of Grails and showcase the latest tools and tricks that the framework has to offer, starting with the MVC basics and scaling up to newer and/or more advanced features, including Interceptors, RESTful APIs, SPAs, Angular scaffolding, Multi-tenancy, and GraphQL schema generation.

The Art of the Pitch: WordPress Relationships and SalesLaura Byrne
Clients don’t know what they don’t know. What web solutions are right for them? How does WordPress come into the picture? How do you make sure you understand scope and timeline? What do you do if sometime changes?
All these questions and more will be explored as we talk about matching clients’ needs with what your agency offers without pulling teeth or pulling your hair out. Practical tips, and strategies for successful relationship building that leads to closing the deal.
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.
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.

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.
DevOps and Testing slides at DASA ConnectKari Kakkonen
My and Rik Marselis slides at 30.5.2024 DASA Connect conference. We discuss about what is testing, then what is agile testing and finally what is Testing in DevOps. Finally we had lovely workshop with the participants trying to find out different ways to think about quality and testing in different parts of the DevOps infinity loop.
