Twins: Object Oriented Programming and Functional ProgrammingRichardWarburton
Object-Oriented Programming has well established design principles, such as SOLID. For many developers architecture and functional programming are at odds with each other: they don’t know how their existing tricks of the trade convert into functional design. This problem becomes worse as hybrid languages such as Java 8 or Scala become common. We’ll talk about how functional programming helps you implement the SOLID principles, and how a functional mindset can actually help you achieve cleaner and simpler OO design.

At first glance, Java byte code can appear to be some low level magic that is both hard to understand and effectively irrelevant to application developers. However, neither is true. With only little practice, Java byte code becomes easy to read and can give true insights into the functioning of a Java program. In this talk, we will cast light on compiled Java code and its interplay with the Java virtual machine. In the process, we will look into the evolution of byte code over the recent major releases with features such as dynamic method invocation which is the basis to Java 8 lambda expressions. Finally, we will learn about tools for the run time generation of Java classes and how these tools are used to build modern frameworks and libraries. Among those tools, I present Byte Buddy, an open source tool of my own efforts and an attempt to considerably simplify run time code generation in Java. (http://bytebuddy.net)

JavaScript Data Types
JavaScript variables can hold many data types: numbers, strings, objects and more.
In programming, data types is an important concept.
To be able to operate on variables, it is important to know something about the type.
While most bugs reveal their cause within their stack trace, Java’s OutOfMemoryError is less talkative and therefore regarded as being difficult to debug by a majority of developers. With the right techniques and tools, memory leaks in Java programs can however be tackled like any other programming error. This talks discusses how a JVM stores data, categorizes different types of memory leaks that can occur in a Java program and presents techniques for fixing such errors. Furthermore, we will have a closer look at lambda expressions and their considerable potential of introducing memory leaks when they are used incautiously.

The N1QL is a developer favorite because it’s SQL for JSON. Developer’s life is going to get easier with the upcoming N1QL features. We have exciting features in many areas including language to performance, indexing to search, and tuning to transactions. This session will preview new the features for both new and advanced users.
N1QL+GSI: Language and Performance Improvements in Couchbase 5.0 and 5.5Keshav Murthy
N1QL gives developers and enterprises an expressive, powerful, and complete language for querying, transforming, and manipulating JSON data. We’ll begin this session with a brief overview of N1QL and then explore some key enhancements we’ve made in the latest versions of Couchbase Server. Couchbase Server 5.0 has language and performance improvements for pagination, index exploitation, integration, index availability, and more. Couchbase Server 5.5 will offer even more language and performance features for N1QL and global secondary indexes (GSI), including ANSI joins, aggregate performance, index partitioning, auditing, and more. We’ll give you an overview of the new features as well as practical use case examples.
XLDB Lightning Talk: Databases for an Engaged World: Requirements and Design...Keshav Murthy
Traditional databases have been designed for system of record and analytics. Modern enterprises have orders of magnitude more interactions than transactions. Couchbase Server is a rethinking of the database for interactions and engagements called, Systems of Engagement. Memory today is much cheaper than disks were when traditional databases were designed back in the 1970's, and networks are much faster and much more reliable than ever before. Application agility is also an extremely important requirement. Today's Couchbase Server is a memory- and network-centric, shared-nothing, auto-partitioned, and distributed NoSQL database system that offers both key-based and secondary index-based data access paths as well as API- and query-based data access capabilities. This lightning talk gives you an overview of requirements posed by next-generation database applications and approach to implementation including “Multi Dimensional Scaling.
Couchbase 5.5: N1QL and Indexing featuresKeshav Murthy
This deck contains the high-level overview of N1QL and Indexing features in Couchbase 5.5. ANSI joins, hash join, index partitioning, grouping, aggregation performance, auditing, query performance features, infrastructure features.
N1QL (SQL for JSON) has built-in rule based optimizer. In Couchbase 5.0, N1QL's optimizer has a number of improvements for resource utilization, performance improvements. This deck deck by Couchbase Principal Engineer, Sitaram describes those improvements.
Mindmap: Oracle to Couchbase for developersKeshav Murthy
This deck provides a high-level comparison between Oracle and Couchbase: Architecture, database objects, types, data model, SQL & N1QL statements, indexing, optimizer, transactions, SDK and deployment options.
Queries need indexes to speed up and optimize resource utilization. What indexes to create and what rules to follow to create right indexes to optimize the workload? This presentation gives the rules for those.
N1QL = SQL + JSON. N1QL gives developers and enterprises an expressive, powerful, and complete language for querying, transforming, and manipulating JSON data. We begin with a brief overview. Couchbase 5.0 has language and performance improvements for pagination, index exploitation, integration, and more. We’ll walk through scenarios, features, and best practices.
From SQL to NoSQL: Structured Querying for JSONKeshav Murthy
Can SQL be used to query JSON? SQL is the universally known structured query language, used for well defined, uniformly structured data; while JSON is the lingua franca of flexible data management, used to define complex, variably structured data objects.
Yes! SQL can most-definitely be used to query JSON with Couchbase's SQL query language for JSON called N1QL (verbalized as Nickel.)
In this session, we will explore how N1QL extends SQL to provide the flexibility and agility inherent in JSON while leveraging the universality of SQL as a query language.
We will discuss utilizing SQL to query complex JSON objects that include arrays, sets and nested objects.
You will learn about the powerful query expressiveness of N1QL, including the latest features that have been added to the language. We will cover how using N1QL can solve your real-world application challenges, based on the actual queries of Couchbase end-users.
Tuning for Performance: indexes & QueriesKeshav Murthy
There are three things important in databases: performance, performance, performance. From a simple query to fetch a document to a query joining millions of documents, designing the right data models and indexes is important. There are many indices you can create, and many options you can choose for each index. This talk will help you understand tuning N1QL query, exploiting various types of indices, analyzing the system behavior, and sizing them correctly.
Understanding N1QL Optimizer to Tune QueriesKeshav Murthy
Every flight has a flight plan. Every query has a query plan. You must have seen its text form, called EXPLAIN PLAN. Query optimizer is responsible for creating this query plan for every query, and it tries to create an optimal plan for every query. In Couchbase, the query optimizer has to choose the most optimal index for the query, decide on the predicates to push down to index scans, create appropriate spans (scan ranges) for each index, understand the sort (ORDER BY) and pagination (OFFSET, LIMIT) requirements, and create the plan accordingly. When you think there is a better plan, you can hint the optimizer with USE INDEX. This talk will teach you how the optimizer selects the indices, index scan methods, and joins. It will teach you the analysis of the optimizer behavior using EXPLAIN plan and how to change the choices optimizer makes.
Utilizing Arrays: Modeling, Querying and IndexingKeshav Murthy
Arrays can be simple; arrays can be complex. JSON arrays give you a method to collapse the data model while retaining structure flexibility. Arrays of scalars, objects, and arrays are common structures in a JSON data model. Once you have this, you need to write queries to update and retrieve the data you need efficiently. This talk will discuss modeling and querying arrays. Then, it will discuss using array indexes to help run those queries on arrays faster.
N1QL supports select, join, project,nest,unnest operations on flexible schema documents represented in JSON.
Couchbase 4.5 enhances the data modeling and query flexibility.
When you have parent-child relationship, children documents point to parent document, you join from child to parent. Now, how would you join from parent to child when parent does not contain the reference to child? How would you improve performance on this? This presentation explain the syntax, execution of the query.
Bringing SQL to NoSQL: Rich, Declarative Query for NoSQLKeshav Murthy
Abstract
NoSQL databases bring the benefits of schema flexibility and
elastic scaling to the enterprise. Until recently, these benefits have
come at the expense of giving up rich declarative querying as
represented by SQL.
In today’s world of agile business, developers and organizations need
the benefits of both NoSQL and SQL in a single platform. NoSQL
(document) databases provide schema flexibility; fast lookup; and
elastic scaling. SQL-based querying provides expressive data access
and transformation; separation of querying from modeling and storage;
and a unified interface for applications, tools, and users.
Developers need to deliver applications that can easily evolve,
perform, and scale. Otherwise, the cost, effort, and delay in keeping
up with changing business needs will become significant disadvantages.
Organizations need sophisticated and rapid access to their operational data, in
order to maintain insight into their business. This access should
support both pre-defined and ad-hoc querying, and should integrate
with standard analytical tools.
This talk will cover how to build applications that combine the
benefits of NoSQL and SQL to deliver agility, performance, and
scalability. It includes:
- N1QL, which extends SQL to JSON
- JSON data modeling
- Indexing and performance
- Transparent scaling
- Integration and ecosystem
You will walk away with an understanding of the design patterns and
best practices for effective utilization of NoSQL document
databases - all using open-source technologies.
SQL for JSON: Rich, Declarative Querying for NoSQL Databases and Applications Keshav Murthy
In today’s world of agile business, Java developers and organizations benefit when JSON-based NoSQL databases and SQL-based querying come together. NoSQL provides schema flexibility and elastic scaling. SQL provides expressive, independent data access. Java developers need to deliver apps that readily evolve, perform, and scale with changing business needs. Organizations need rapid access to their operational data, using standard analytical tools, for insight into their business. In this session, you will learn to build apps that combine NoSQL and SQL for agility, performance, and scalability. This includes
• JSON data modeling
• Indexing
• Tool integration

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.

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing DaysKari Kakkonen
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.
