Cassandra Summit 2014: The Cassandra Experience at Orange — Season 2DataStax Academy
Presenter: Jean Armel Luce, Cassandra Administrator at Orange
At the Cassandra Summit Europe 2013, Jean Armel presented "The Cassandra Experience at Orange - Season 1", explaining the 1st steps of Cassandra at Orange (choice of Cassandra, migration without any interruption of service, improvements of the QoS after the migration). For the "Cassandra Experience at Orange - Season 2", Jean Armel is going to focus on 2 new features added to the PnS application during the last months: Graphs and analytics. A Cassandra table must have 1 and only 1 primary key, while some data have many logical identifiers. Designing data as a graph may help! As for analyitcs, Hadoop + Hive allow to do analytics on data stored in Cassandra. This presentation is going to highlight a few tips about the installation of Hadoop/Hive over C*, and about the isolation between mapreduce tasks and on line queries.

When we design together - Sabrina Mach, Ammara Gafoor and James Emmott
From three distinct perspectives, this talk will contend that design is an activity undertaken by everyone in a software development team. It occurs throughout the process of delivery — not only at the beginning or the end — and it is a powerful instrument for learning about and adapting to the problems our work seeks to solve, which is a shared responsibility. Making the best use of our multidisciplinary expertise in the activity of design requires forms of collaboration that are too often disrupted by the role-based silos that keep us separated and weaken the valuable contribution our diverse approaches could make to our collective efforts. If you care about accelerating time to market, improving customer experience, or building happy and productive teams, you will want to know why and how it matters that we believe ‘design is in everything that we do’.

Making the Web Fireproof: A Building Code for WebsitesDylan Wilbanks
The moment we start creating a website, we’re setting ourselves up for failure later. Bad code creates middle of the night fire drills. Lack of thinking about accessibility gets our employer sued. Not thinking ahead on mobile generates rework. We accept this as the normal course of business – but is there any way we could prevent (or lower) this cost? Is there anything we can learn from the building codes that dictate how our built environment is constructed?
We will talk about the lessons of building codes and what we can do today to build more robust web applications and sites, including:
- The need for design patterns in websites
- The need for patterns in user stories so that we build websites consistently
- Baking accessibility into websites comes from putting accessibility into user stories
- Planning a web application is different from planning a building, but it does share similar aspects of work
- The better we can becoming at creating best practices (building codes) the better we will get at building sites, and the closer we will come to Berners-Lee’s “one web for all” dream
