Dancer + WebSocket + AnyEvent + Twiggy
This in *not* a talk about doing a hello world in Dancer, as there are plenty of it. This is a real-life example of using Dancer to address a problem in an elegant and powerful way
At $job, we have cpan mirrors. We want them to stay a bit behind the real CPAN for stability, but we have a tool to update modules from the real CPAN to our mirrors. Cool.
I wanted to have a web interface to trigger it, and monitor the injection. This problem is not a typical one (blog, wiki, CRUD, etc). Here we have a long running operation that shall happen only one at a time, that generates logs to be displayed, with states that need keeping. In this regard, it's interesting to see how Dancer is versatile enough to address these situations with ease.
This talk details how I did that, the technology I used, and the full source code (which is quite short). I used Dancer + WebSocket + AnyEvent + Twiggy + some other stuff.
This talk doesn't require any particular knowledge beyond basic Perl, and very basic web server understanding.

Beyond php - it's not (just) about the codeWim Godden
Most PHP developers focus on writing code. But creating Web applications is about much more than just wrting PHP. Take a step outside the PHP cocoon and into the big PHP ecosphere to find out how small code changes can make a world of difference on servers and network. This talk is an eye-opener for developers who spend over 80% of their time coding, debugging and testing.
Logging. Everyone does it. Many don't know why they do it. It is often considered a boring chore. A chore that is done by habit rather than for a purpose. But it doesn't have to be! Learn how to build a powerful, scalable open source logging environment with LogStash.

Caching and tuning fun for high scalabilityWim Godden
Caching has been a 'hot' topic for a few years. But caching takes more than merely taking data and putting it in a cache : the right caching techniques can improve performance and reduce load significantly. But we'll also look at some major pitfalls, showing that caching the wrong way can bring down your site. If you're looking for a clear explanation about various caching techniques and tools like Memcached, Nginx and Varnish, as well as ways to deploy them in an efficient way, this talk is for you.
These slides explain the introduction of Ansible within the ideato scenario, the comparison of ansible with puppet, a series of workflow by the current to that in the immediate up to an optimum. There is also a demo where I build an automated Elasticsearch cluster on AWS using Ansible playbooks.

Who would have thought putting 140 charachter messages about one's life online or having a virtual farm game could ever be popular ? Then again, many of us have those weird (but sometimes brilliant) ideas.
But no matter how incredible your ideas might be, getting them launched successfully takes more than writing lots of php code, smacking a sleek design on it and dropping it on a server.
So what does it take ? Where do most ideas crashland and how can you avoid making the same mistakes and transform your ideas into reality ? We'll look at what steps are needed to make a service successful and sustainable.
With PHP 8.0 recently released and PHP 5.x still accounting for over 40% of all production environments, it's time to paint a clear picture on not just why everyone should move to 8.x, but on how to get code ready for the latest version of PHP. In this talk, we'll look at some handy tools and techniques to ease the migration.
With PHP 7.2 recently released and PHP 5.3 and 5.4 still accounting for over 40% of all production environments, it's time to paint a clear picture on not just why everyone should move to 7.0 (or preferably 7.1), but on how to get code ready for the latest version of PHP.
Using the version compatibility checker for PHP_CodeSniffer and a few simple step-by-step instructions, upgrading old code to make it compatible with the latest PHP versions becomes actually really easy. In this talk, we'll migrate an old piece of code and get rid of the demons of the past and ready for the present and future.

Your app lives on the network - networking for web developersWim Godden
Our job might be to build web applications, but we can't build apps that rely on networking if we don't know how these networks and the big network that connects them all (this thing called the Internet) actually work.
I'll walk through the basics of networking, then dive a lot deeper (from TCP/UDP to IPv4/6, source/destination ports, sockets, DNS and even BGP).
Prepare for an eye-opener when you realize how much a typical app relies on all of these (and many more) working flawlessly... and how you can prepare your app for failure in the chain.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work.

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.

26. Varnish - what can/can't be cached ?
Can :
Static pages
Images, js, css
Static parts of pages that don't change often (ESI)
Can't :
POST requests
Very large files (it's not a file server !)
Requests with Set-Cookie
User-specific content
27. ESI → no caching on user-specific content ?

36. Advantages
No repeated GET hits to webserver anymore !
At login : POST → warm up the cache !
No repeated hits for user-specific content
Not even for non-specific content

40. First release : ESI
Part of the ESI 1.0 spec
Only relevant features implemented
Extension for dynamic session support
But : unavailable for copyright reasons
41. Rebuilt from scratch : SCL
Session-specific Caching Language
Language details :
Control structures : if/else, switch/case, foreach
Variable handling
Strings : concatenation, substring, …
Exception handling, header manipulation, ...
42. SCL code samples
You are logged in as : <scl:session_var("person_name") />
You are logged in as : <@s("person_name") />
45. Identifying the user
In Nginx configuration :
scl_session_cookie <name> → Defined by language (or configurable)
scl_session_identifier <string> → Defined by you
Example for PHP :
scl_session_cookie PHPSESSID
scl_session_identifier UID
46. Identifying the user
Cookie :
PHPSESSID =
jpsidc1po35sq9q3og4f3hi6e2
Nginx + SCL
432
get UID_jpsidc1po35sq9q3og4f3hi6e2
47. Retrieving user specific content
Cookie :
PHPSESSID =
jpsidc1po35sq9q3og4f3hi6e2
Nginx + SCL
get top_432
48. Why Nginx ?
Native Memcached support
Excellent and superfast subrequest system
Including parallel subrequests
Handles thousands of connections per worker
With minimal memory footprint
Integrates with php-fpm
Additional features (chroot, slow request log, offline processing, ...)
Graceful rolling upgrades
