Steve Jobs used to always talk about the "most important thing," what he sometimes called the "high-order bit," the thing we should be working on, and thinking about, to the exclusion of others. What does it mean? How do we recognize it? Why is it important? What is our "most important thing," and what is the most important "most important thing"? This might sound trivial, but it’s not. This talk will be inspiring, but it will also be upsetting. Often the most important thing is not what we wish it was, and finding it can be like Armageddon, as your entire future is destroyed.

L’API Economy ha permesso ad aziende e startup di fornire i propri servizi attraverso nuovi canali. La nascita di ecosistemi digitali interaziendali ha spinto ulteriormente molte aziende ad inserire nel loro piano di Digital Transformation programmi di sviluppo ed esposizione di API interne ed esterne per aumentare l'integrazione aziendale e abilitare nuovi modelli di business con terze parti. Ma esporre delle API non è sufficiente. Nell'API Economy diventa fondamentale sviluppare una strategia di commercializzazione delle API e un'architettura in grado di abilitare transazioni commerciali.

AWS Lambda has changed the way we deploy and run software, but this new serverless paradigm has created new challenges to old problems - how do you test a cloud-hosted function locally? How do you monitor them? What about logging and config management? And how do we start migrating from existing architectures? In this talk Yan will discuss solutions to these challenges by drawing from real-world experience running Lambda in production and migrating from an existing monolithic architecture.

We are going to talk about Prometheus and how to use to monitor micro-services "Cloud-Native" application s. We are going to dive deep into the Prometheus monitoring model, we will see what are the components be hind this system and how they integrate with each others to provide an efficient and modern monitoring sy stem. We will also have a glance on Prometheus native integrations for cloud-native environments such as Kubernetes.

Poco più di 10 anni fa nasceva il framework opensource Hadoop rivoluzionando il mondo dei Big Data. Nato come implementazione opensource di due tecnologie di Google, MapReduce e GFS, metteva a disposizione di tutti strumenti per l'analisi di grandi quantità di dati che fino ad allora erano stati appannaggio del colosso di Mountain View. Qualche anno dopo presso l'AMPLab dell'Università di Berkeley nasceva un altro framework che avrebbe rivoluzionato il settore: Spark. Durante il webinar verrà analizzato lo "stato dell'arte" di questi due prodotti oggi nonché le features che verranno introdotte a breve disponibili attualmente in modalità "sperimentale" nelle versioni in fase di sviluppo.

"Lei ha clacsonato" è l'incipit di un programma scritto in Monicelli, un linguaggio che usa come istruzioni le supercazzole rese famose nei vari film "Amici miei". Monicelli è uno dei tanti linguaggi esoterici, nati un po' per gioco e un po' come sfida; alcuni hanno lo scopo di divertire, altri sono pensati per mucche e oranghi, altri ancora per essere estremamente difficili da usare, al punto di meritarsi il nome di un cerchio dell'inferno dantesco. Pensate che il vostro collega scriva codice incomprensibile? Think again.

The future of e-commerce requires personalized content for each individual customer. With over 20 million active users, Zalando is facing the challenge of making its frontends more scalable in order to achieve this goal. We brought a solution from the backend to the frontend: microservices. In addition to creating Project Mosaic (https://www.mosaic9.org)—our solution for modular frontends—and using a toolbox of modern web technologies like React and Webpack, we built an architecture that can scale to virtually any size and even support targets other than the browser.

Containers are a technology that will take over infrastructure management in next few years and it is absolutely important to anyone involved in software delivery automation and maintenance to understand the principles behind it and know how to use it. This workshop offers an introduction to Linux containers using the predominant technology, Docker. The following topics will be covered: - A bit of history (LXC Containers, Docker, other players) - Setting up your environment - Docker daemon and client - Image vs. container - Docker registry - Container orchestration - Docker use cases

Qual'è la prima cosa che ti viene in mente se ti chiedessi di associare "container" e "architetture" ? Esatto ! Container e microservizi sono di fatto gli argomenti più chiacchierati degli ultimi anni e che spesso vanno a braccetto. Ma quand'è che i due mondi iniziano ad incontrarsi, se non nel tuo computer? Ti porterò la mia esperienza sul uso dei container per lo sviluppo di un applicativo con architettura a microservizi, partendo dalle scelte fatte fin dai primi momenti dello sviluppo fino ad arrivare alla sua messa in produzione.

Do you have an idea for a startup and don't want to pay for scaling it up? Forget about bandwidth problems, servers to install and pay for, with the power of IPFS and the blockchain. In this talk, we will explore how to build an HTML5 DAPP (distributed application) with EmbarkJS, and figure out how to rethink servers, storage, messaging, data and payments in a distributed and decentralised way with the help of Ethereum's smart contracts and IPFS distributed storage.

Everyone who calls themselves a "coder" had to start somewhere. For some of us, that start was in an unrelated field. This talk brings you along on a young doctor's joyous journey from the wondrous world of medical academia into the terrifying territory of tech. We'll reflect on differences and similarities between the medical and technical worlds and the learning process after a career switch. We'll discuss practical insights in what makes tech learning unique and what might make it better, and "behind the scenes of tech" glimpses that left this newbie coder wishing for blissful ignorance.

Isaac Newton, the father of modern software engineering, called it “Standing on the shoulders of giants”. Modern development is exciting as it gets easier and easier, partly because of the wealth of resources available at our fingertips. One category of these resources are libraries, SDKs, and frameworks. This talk will be a guide into the considerations that go into building a library for both iOS/Swift and Java/Android. We will be taking cues from both my personal experience, as well as from studying how the leaders in the field do it.
