Asynchronous Web Programming with HTML5 WebSockets and JavaJames Falkner
(Talk originally given @ KCDC - http://kcdc.info ).
Over the last decade, advances in web computing have removed many of the barriers to entry for developers. New languages, frameworks, and development methodologies have kickstarted new ideas and new ways to develop web applications to make modern life easier and more efficient. WebSockets (introduced as part of HTML5) is one such technology that enables a new class of scalable, super-responsive, collaborative, and real-time web applications with a wide range of uses.
In this talk, we will first cover the basics of asynchronous web programming using WebSockets, including predecessors such as polling and long-polling, applications of WebSockets, its limitations and potential bottlenecks, and potential future improvements.
Next, we will demo and dissect a real-world use case for realtime social data analytics, using the Apache Tomcat implementation of WebSockets and the Java-based Liferay Portal Server. This will include a discussion about development of WebSocket endpoints, its lifecycle within the application container and browser, debugging WebSockets, and scalability topics.

This document provides an overview and agenda for a session on testing single-page web applications. It introduces the concepts of traditional and modern web applications, and how they differ in terms of page construction and the challenges they pose for testing. It then discusses technologies like Node.js, headless browsers, CasperJS and Splinter that help enable testing of dynamic DOM in single-page apps from outside the browser or without opening the browser. The agenda involves demonstrating how to test a UI using these tools by invoking tests from the Python console or command line.
This document discusses a PHP push notification system using MQTT protocol. It requires a Mosquitto MQTT server, Node.js, and Socket.io module to function. The client code connects to the Node.js server via Socket.io and subscribes to topics to listen for notifications. The Node.js code acts as a broker, connecting to the MQTT server and filtering websocket data based on topics. It listens for new notifications from MQTT and sends them to clients via websockets.
No callbacks, No Threads - Cooperative web servers in Ruby 1.9Ilya Grigorik
The document discusses using fibers and evented programming with Ruby to achieve asynchronous and concurrent behavior without threads. It introduces EventMachine and EM-Synchrony for implementing asynchronous drivers and applications. Code examples show wrapping database queries in fibers to make them non-blocking. This allows running queries concurrently using a threadpool and achieving higher throughput than blocking implementations. The approach is applied to build an asynchronous version of Rails using EventMachine, fibers and the Thin web server.
WebSockets allow for bidirectional communication between a client and server over a single TCP connection. They provide lower latency and overhead than traditional HTTP requests which require a new connection for each request. The talk demonstrated how to use WebSockets with JavaScript on the client and event-driven servers like Node.js on the server. While browser support is still limited and the specification is in flux, WebSockets offer a way to build real-time applications without hacks like long-polling that HTTP requires.

WebSocket is a protocol that provides full-duplex communication channels over a single TCP connection. It was standardized in 2011 and allows for real-time data exchange between a client and server. The document discusses how WebSocket works, compares it to previous techniques like polling which had limitations, and outlines how to implement WebSocket in Java using JSR 356 and in Spring using the WebSocket API and STOMP protocol.
Reverse Ajax, also known as Comet, allows a server to push data to a client without the client explicitly requesting it. This is achieved through techniques like long polling where the client opens a persistent connection to the server to receive messages as they happen. Common libraries that implement Reverse Ajax include CometD, Atmosphere, and DWR, with CometD being a preferred option as it supports websockets and offers full client/server functionality.
Using Communication and Messaging API in the HTML5 WorldGil Fink
This document discusses HTML5 communication and messaging APIs, including cross-document messaging, CORS, server-sent events, and web sockets. Cross-document messaging allows sending messages between windows using postMessage. CORS enables cross-domain requests if responses include access control headers. Server-sent events allow push data from servers to clients. Web sockets provide bidirectional communications over a single TCP connection. The session explored examples of these APIs and their browser support.

WUG Days 2022 Brno - Networking in .NET 7.0 and YARP -- Karel ZikmundKarel Zikmund
The document discusses HTTP/3 and QUIC support in .NET 7.0, with HTTP/3 providing benefits for unreliable networks and mobile scenarios. It also covers HTTP/2 WebSockets, which allow reusing the HTTP/2 connection at the client level but require an API change. Additionally, it introduces YARP as an open source reverse proxy library built on .NET, highlighting how reverse proxies are useful for load balancing and other scenarios in microservices architectures.
WebSocket is a protocol that provides full-duplex communication channels over a single TCP connection. It allows for more efficient communication than HTTP by establishing persistent connections and enabling bidirectional data flow that enables real-time data transfer from server to client. The key advantages are lower latency for real-time applications like games, media streaming, and chats compared to HTTP. It works by upgrading the initial HTTP connection to a WebSocket connection using a handshake. Data is then sent between client and server as frames that include opcode, length and payload fields. Common uses include applications requiring constant updates from the server.
WebSockets allow for bidirectional communication between a client and server over a single TCP connection. They improve on older "Comet" techniques which used polling and long-polling to simulate real-time updates. With WebSockets, the client can open a WebSocket connection to the server which sends messages at any time without needing an explicit request. This enables real-time applications with constantly updating information. The document outlines the WebSocket protocol, provides examples of the API in browsers, and discusses frameworks for building WebSocket applications.
This document discusses optimizing mobile networks and applications for speed. It begins with an overview of networking basics and how mobile networks work. It then discusses factors that affect speed like latency, bandwidth, TCP protocols, and cellular network routing. The document provides recommendations for optimizing like leveraging WiFi, anticipating latency, saving bandwidth and battery. It also covers HTTP optimizations, browser APIs and protocols like XHR, SSE and WebSockets. The goal is to understand how networks impact applications and how to design for optimal mobile performance.
Developing Revolutionary Web Applications using Comet and Ajax PushDoris Chen
Join the asynchronous web revolution! Because Ajax-based applications are almost becoming the de facto technology for designing web-based applications, it is more and more important that such applications react on the fly, or in real time, to both client and server events. AJAX can be used to allow the browser to request information from the web server, but does not allow a server to push updates to a browser. Comet solves this problem. Comet is a technology that enables web clients and web servers to communicate asynchronously, allowing real-time operations and functions previously unheard of with traditional web applications to approach the capabilities of desktop applications. This session will start to provide an brief introduction to the asynchronous web, AJAX polling, long polling, and Streaming, explaining the Bayeux protocol, Cometd, Grizzly Comet implementation on GlassFish. Different approaches and best practices to develop comet application will also be discussed. You will learn how to develop the chat application, how to implement distance learning slideshow application, how to manage a chat application from the server and how to develop a two-player distributed game application. Attendees will take away the tactics they need in order to add multiuser collaboration, notification and other Comet features to their application, whether they develop with Dojo, jQuery, jMaki, or Prototype and whether they deploy on Jetty, Tomcat, or the GlassFish Application Server.
Using Proxies To Secure Applications And MoreJosh Sokol
The last Austin OWASP presentation of the year is a must see for anyone responsible for the security of a web application. It is a demonstration of the various types of proxy software and their uses. We've all heard about WebScarab, BurpSuite, RatProxy, or Paros but how familiar are you with actually using them to inspect for web security issues? Did you know that you can use RatProxy for W3C compliance validation? By the time you leave this presentation, you will be able to go back to your office and wow your co-workers with the amazing new proxy skills that you've acquired.
This document discusses WebSockets, including what they are, why they are needed, how they can be used, vulnerabilities, and limitations. WebSockets provide bi-directional communication over a single TCP connection and reduce latency compared to HTTP polling. They enable real-time applications and are supported by modern browsers through the HTML5 WebSocket API. Tools like Burp and ZAP can intercept and analyze WebSocket traffic. Vulnerabilities in WebSocket implementations have included denial of service, remote code execution, and bypassing of security restrictions. Limitations include lack of support in all browsers and need for client libraries to handle network issues.
La presentazione tenuta da Simone Bordet in occasione del Codemotion Roma del 5 marzo 2011 - http://www.codemotion.it/

How information systems are built or acquired puts information, which is what they should be about, in a secondary place. Our language adapted accordingly, and we no longer talk about information systems but applications. Applications evolved in a way to break data into diverse fragments, tightly coupled with applications and expensive to integrate. The result is technical debt, which is re-paid by taking even bigger "loans", resulting in an ever-increasing technical debt. Software engineering and procurement practices work in sync with market forces to maintain this trend. This talk demonstrates how natural this situation is. The question is: can something be done to reverse the trend?
Conversational agents, or chatbots, are increasingly used to access all sorts of services using natural language. While open-domain chatbots - like ChatGPT - can converse on any topic, task-oriented chatbots - the focus of this paper - are designed for specific tasks, like booking a flight, obtaining customer support, or setting an appointment. Like any other software, task-oriented chatbots need to be properly tested, usually by defining and executing test scenarios (i.e., sequences of user-chatbot interactions). However, there is currently a lack of methods to quantify the completeness and strength of such test scenarios, which can lead to low-quality tests, and hence to buggy chatbots.
To fill this gap, we propose adapting mutation testing (MuT) for task-oriented chatbots. To this end, we introduce a set of mutation operators that emulate faults in chatbot designs, an architecture that enables MuT on chatbots built using heterogeneous technologies, and a practical realisation as an Eclipse plugin. Moreover, we evaluate the applicability, effectiveness and efficiency of our approach on open-source chatbots, with promising results.
LF Energy Webinar: Carbon Data Specifications: Mechanisms to Improve Data Acc...DanBrown980551
This LF Energy webinar took place June 20, 2024. It featured:
-Alex Thornton, LF Energy
-Hallie Cramer, Google
-Daniel Roesler, UtilityAPI
-Henry Richardson, WattTime
In response to the urgency and scale required to effectively address climate change, open source solutions offer significant potential for driving innovation and progress. Currently, there is a growing demand for standardization and interoperability in energy data and modeling. Open source standards and specifications within the energy sector can also alleviate challenges associated with data fragmentation, transparency, and accessibility. At the same time, it is crucial to consider privacy and security concerns throughout the development of open source platforms.
This webinar will delve into the motivations behind establishing LF Energy’s Carbon Data Specification Consortium. It will provide an overview of the draft specifications and the ongoing progress made by the respective working groups.
Three primary specifications will be discussed:
-Discovery and client registration, emphasizing transparent processes and secure and private access
-Customer data, centering around customer tariffs, bills, energy usage, and full consumption disclosure
-Power systems data, focusing on grid data, inclusive of transmission and distribution networks, generation, intergrid power flows, and market settlement data
Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity serverAntonios Katsarakis
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).

[OReilly Superstream] Occupy the Space: A grassroots guide to engineering (an...Jason Yip
The typical problem in product engineering is not bad strategy, so much as “no strategy”. This leads to confusion, lack of motivation, and incoherent action. The next time you look for a strategy and find an empty space, instead of waiting for it to be filled, I will show you how to fill it in yourself. If you’re wrong, it forces a correction. If you’re right, it helps create focus. I’ll share how I’ve approached this in the past, both what works and lessons for what didn’t work so well.
From Natural Language to Structured Solr Queries using LLMsSease
This talk draws on experimentation to enable AI applications with Solr. One important use case is to use AI for better accessibility and discoverability of the data: while User eXperience techniques, lexical search improvements, and data harmonization can take organizations to a good level of accessibility, a structural (or “cognitive” gap) remains between the data user needs and the data producer constraints.
That is where AI – and most importantly, Natural Language Processing and Large Language Model techniques – could make a difference. This natural language, conversational engine could facilitate access and usage of the data leveraging the semantics of any data source.
The objective of the presentation is to propose a technical approach and a way forward to achieve this goal.
The key concept is to enable users to express their search queries in natural language, which the LLM then enriches, interprets, and translates into structured queries based on the Solr index’s metadata.
This approach leverages the LLM’s ability to understand the nuances of natural language and the structure of documents within Apache Solr.
The LLM acts as an intermediary agent, offering a transparent experience to users automatically and potentially uncovering relevant documents that conventional search methods might overlook. The presentation will include the results of this experimental work, lessons learned, best practices, and the scope of future work that should improve the approach and make it production-ready.
"$10 thousand per minute of downtime: architecture, queues, streaming and fin...Fwdays
Direct losses from downtime in 1 minute = $5-$10 thousand dollars. Reputation is priceless.
As part of the talk, we will consider the architectural strategies necessary for the development of highly loaded fintech solutions. We will focus on using queues and streaming to efficiently work and manage large amounts of data in real-time and to minimize latency.
We will focus special attention on the architectural patterns used in the design of the fintech system, microservices and event-driven architecture, which ensure scalability, fault tolerance, and consistency of the entire system.
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.
