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!

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. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle.
Gopinath Rebala
Gopinath Rebala is the CTO of OpsMx, where he has overall responsibility for the machine learning and data processing architectures for Secure Software Delivery. Gopi also has a strong connection with our customers, leading design and architecture for strategic implementations. Gopi is a frequent speaker and well-known leader in continuous delivery and integrating security into software delivery.

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.

1. Tips for a Great
Website Foundation
Corey Freeman
WordCamp Raleigh 2013
2. About Corey
Freeman (ME!)
Working with WordPress since 2004
Specialize in Headway Themes
Fan of website optimization
Owner of World’s most frustrating dog.
authenticcorey.com / @coreyfreeman
12. Use WordPress.org
Ease of Customization
Plugins & Theme Frameworks
Pick Your Own Hosting Package
Easier to Work with Freelancers
Less Expensive in the Long-Run
13. Essential Plugins
*Only* install plugins you absolutely need! Do your
research.
Pick plugins that have been updated recently (in the
last 6 months)
Go with repository or premium plugins. No back-alley
websites!
WordPress SEO by Yoast, Akismet, Limit Login Attempts,
Redirection, Gravity Forms, BackUp Buddy, Subscribe
to Comments Reloaded, Clean Archives Reloaded
14. [Detour] JetPack
If you’re using Jetpack, make sure
you DISABLE features you’re not
using (e.g. math, spelling/grammar,
subscriptions, Json, gravatar
hovercards, etc…)
My favorite is sharing, stats,
publicize, and the image CDN
16. Theme Frameworks
Eg. Headway Themes, Genesis, Thesis, PageLines, etc.
Take a giant chunk of work out of design
development.
Are continuously developed and have a large
community for support and expert services.
Typically mobile responsive and ready for
extensions.
Are fun to use :)
19. Argument for
Custom Design
Build your design around your
content so you don’t have to do
multiple redesigns.
Easier to brand when you brand from
the ground up.
Easier optimization and conversion
tweaks later. (Less “Hacking”)
20. Things to Keep in
Mind When Designing
MOBILE. Go responsive. Avoid apps unless
you have a really good reason and a LOT
of money for updates.
Limit the amount of images that the
design needs to work for faster loading
times.
Make sure every color has a function.
Copy, callout, background, emphasis, etc.
21. PS. Child Themes
Child themes are good if you want
to do a LOT of custom code
customization. But it’s not necessary
for Headway Themes :)
They’re uploaded like themes, but
require the parent theme installed.
22. Outsourcing Design
& Development
Pay more now or you’ll have to pay
again later for someone like me to
fix an “affordable” design.
Don’t be afraid to shop around and
ask for what you want. Ask questions!
Do not fear the idea of code.
24. Heavy Lifting
Start development once your design is
FINISHED. DONE. No more colors. Pencils
down.
W3 Total Cache with CloudFlare
JetPack’s CDN for Images or another CDN to
supercharge.
WP Optimize on occasion (database cleanup)
25. Reduce the Clutter
Remove deactivated plugins & themes,
except WP default theme.
Remove “Unattached” images and files that
aren’t part of the design.
Remove spam and empty auto-drafts, empty
your trash.
Assess the plugins you’re using and reduce
them whenever possible.
26. Regular
Maintenance
Create back-ups using a plugin like
BackUp Buddy and store them locally
or on Amazon S3
Enable scheduled back-ups from your
host.
Regularly update or use an update/
concierge service.
27. Are Your Plugins
Awful?
Try “P3” Plugin Performance Profiler
if something weird is happening to
see if a new plugin is seriously
messed up.
Deactivate plugins one-by-one for
more precise changes.
28. Security
Just. Keep. Updating.
BackUps Are Your Friend.
Don’t freak out if you’re not a giant ecommerce website. Limit Login Attempts,
disable registration, move on.
Change “admin” to anything else. Passwords:
auto generate and keep it in a sticky note
OR use “pass phrases” with spaces n’ stuff.
29. Other Tips
Remove social media buttons & comments
from the blog index and individual pages.
Posts only!
Permalinks Matter. Use /%postname%/ if
you’re not sure what you want.
Move archives to their own page instead of
the sidebar. Plugin: Clean Archives
Reloaded
30. Things to
Remember about WP
Use the “featured images” option for
lead images!
Don’t link post images to their
attachment files, or at all if you don’t
have to.
Pages for static/unchanging content.
Posts for fresh, updating content.
32. SEO the Easy Way
Make optimization a habit! Write content, go
back and optimize.
Install and configure just ONE SEO plugin,
eg. WordPress SEO by Yoast
Write titles people are searching for, eg. “how
to change a tire”
Only spend money if you have a lot and
find a provider you love.
33. [Detour] Scribe
Meh, I’m not a fan. I’d say use
WordPress SEO unless you need a lot
of hand-holding.
Read up on SEO tips from major
blogs like searchenginejournal.com
and copyblogger.com and
problogger.net, etc.
34. About Title Tags
<h1> Should be your post/page title.
<h2> is important stuff
<h3> is for sections related to the
important stuff
<h4 - h6> Basically whatever you
want, but treat like titles.
35. About Categories &
Tags
Limit the number of categories to main
topics on your website.
Remove the /category/ part of your URLs if
you’re a new site.
Create as many tags as you want, avoid
duplicates.
Use the plugin “Relevanssi” to make search
better and take advantage of these.
36. Comment
Moderation
Moderate your comments to avoid
spam content and crappy links.
Use plugins like “Conditional Captcha
for WordPress” and “Akisment”
together to prevent spam.
Turn OFF comments if you’re not
blogging/interested in them.
37. Not Just SEO
Add share buttons to posts to make it
easy for people to spread naturally.
Auto-update social networks and
email lists on new posts to minimize
work and maximize exposure.
Respond to comments and let people
get to know you.
38. My Favorite Social
Plugins
Digg-Digg (for floating)
Tweet Old Posts (for continuously
promoting older content automatically)
Subscribe to Comments Reloaded for
connecting with others.
WordPress Popular Posts (sidebar
widget)
