The document discusses how teams at The Economist online work incrementally and iteratively on the same codebase to improve the site, with releases every Tuesday. It focuses on the importance of having a definition of "Done" and explains that for their teams, a story is Done when it has been implemented, verified through manual testing, validated by the product owner, and ready to be released to production. Defining and achieving Done increases productivity and allows for early delivery of business value and feedback. The teams use tools like Bazaar, Launchpad, Hudson and EC2 to manage their workflow, do peer reviews, and set up test instances for user stories.

With no SAP upgrade or additional SAP software, learn how Welch Allyn used their existing SAP environment to cut their SAP transaction times in half through iOS bar code scanning and tailoring the SAP Production Planning and Control module to the specific needs of the business. Welch Allyn improvements include: Change Container Status With Bar Code (PKBC) used to empty KanBan bins on the production floor went from 7 key strokes and 3 mouse clicks to one bar code scan. With 350k transactions, every key stroke matters! Error-proofing the transaction is also done with barcodes and bins no longer have to be moved, saving handling time and money. MFBF (Backflushing In Repetitive Mfg) transaction was streamlined and extended to iOS devices, going from 22 keystrokes to one barcode scan. With 150K of these transactions, the time savings and reduction in errors paid for itself in months.

Sorry Guys I am Little Late Publishing It.Virtulization is Too Fast Than My Expectation's.Its Already Shows its Impact Everywhere Corporates,SMB's etc.

A lot of the discussions around serverless has been about the benefits it brings to the table with regards to DevOps - more infrastructure automation, scalability and resilience out-of-the-box. Developers love it because they can offload even more undifferentiated heavy-lifting to their cloud vendors, and they can focus their energy on building the things their users want. Businesses benefit hugely too because they have happier developers who can deliver value faster! But the true power of the serverless paradigm, for the business, is the pay-per-invocation model. It allows them to finally understand the cost of user transactions, and calculate the return on investment of features. And if you embrace this superpower then it can even open the door to an entirely new business model built around pay-per-transaction and give your business the competitive advantage over your rivals.

This document compares single page applications (SPAs) to traditional websites. SPAs load all necessary resources on the initial page load, then dynamically load any additional content. This allows the URL to be frequently updated to simulate page transitions while avoiding full page reloads. SPAs require less server-side processing than traditional sites since more logic runs in the browser. Well-written SPAs are convenient for users because they are responsive like native apps, can notify users of state changes, and work across different devices and platforms similarly to regular websites.

Our project entitled “Water Billing Management System” aims is to generate Water bill with all the charges and penalty. Manual system that is employed is extremely laborious and quite inadequate. It only makes the process more difficult and hard. The aim of our project is to develop a system that is meant to partially computerize the work performed in the Water Board like generating monthly Water bill, record of consuming unit of water, store record of the customer and previous unpaid record. We used HTML/PHP as front end and MYSQL as back end for developing our project. HTML is primarily a visual design environment. We can create a android application by designing the form and that make up the user interface. Adding android application code to the form and the objects such as buttons and text boxes on them and adding any required support code in additional modular. MySQL is free open source database that facilitates the effective management of the databases by connecting them to the software. It is a stable ,reliable and the powerful solution with the advanced features and advantages which are as follows: Data Security.MySQL is free open source database that facilitates the effective management of the databases by connecting them to the software.

All Things Open 2023 Presented at All Things Open 2023 Presented by Deb Bryant - Open Source Initiative, Patrick Masson - Apereo Foundation, Stephen Jacobs - Rochester Institute of Technology, Ruth Suehle - SAS, & Greg Wallace - FreeBSD Foundation Title: Open Source and Public Policy Abstract: New regulations in the software industry and adjacent areas such as AI, open science, open data, and open education are on the rise around the world. Cyber Security, societal impact of AI, data and privacy are paramount issues for legislators globally. At the same time, the COVID-19 pandemic drove collaborative development to unprecedented levels and took Open Source software, open research, open content and data from mainstream to main stage, creating tension between public benefit and citizen safety and security as legislators struggle to find a balance between open collaboration and protecting citizens. Historically, the open source software community and foundations supporting its work have not engaged in policy discussions. Moving forward, thoughtful development of these important public policies whilst not harming our complex ecosystems requires an understanding of how our ecosystem operates. Ensuring stakeholders without historic benefit of representation in those discussions becomes paramount to that end. Please join our open discussion with open policy stakeholders working constructively on current open policy topics. Our panelists will provide a view into how oss foundations and other open domain allies are now rising to this new challenge as well as seizing the opportunity to influence positive changes to the public’s benefit. Topics: Public Policy, Open Science, Open Education, current legislation in the US and EU, US interest in OSS sustainability, intro to the Open Policy Alliance Find more info about All Things Open: On the web: https://www.allthingsopen.org/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/AllThingsOpen LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/all-things-open/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/allthingsopen/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/AllThingsOpen Mastodon: https://mastodon.social/@allthingsopen Threads: https://www.threads.net/@allthingsopen 2023 conference: https://2023.allthingsopen.org/

This document summarizes a presentation about graph-quilt, an open source GraphQL orchestrator library.

A database of a few hundred GB can generate GBs worth of journal files every minute at busy times. Troubleshooting and forensices, especially of rare and intermittent problems, such as which process made what update and when, is an exercise of finding needles in haystacks. A similar problem exists with syslogs. A solution is to load the journal files and syslogs into a database, and use SQL to query the database.

Presented at All Things Open 2023 Presented by Carol Huang & Mike Fix - Stripe Title: Scaling an Open Source Sponsorship Program Abstract: ​​We already know this: the open-source ecosystem needs further monetary investment from the companies that benefit most from it. Likewise, companies say they want to participate in these initiatives, but find it hard to dedicate resources to open source funding when there isn’t a clear ROI. This talk discusses how the Open Source Program Office at Stripe built a scalable, sustainable open source sponsorship model that aligns internal company incentives with those of open source maintainers and the community at large. We go over the unique “platformization” of our OSPO that allowed us to create multiple funding models, such as BYOB (Bring Your Own Budget), and share lessons learned from this experience as well as other OSPOs.

Presented at All Things Open 2023 Presented by Arundeep Nagaraj - Amazon Web Services (AWS) Title: Build Developer Experience Teams for Open Source Abstract: Open Source has become the default strategy for many IT organizations and Enterprises. However, the constant challenge with Open Source leaders of these organizations has been - How is my product's developer experience? Is this the right metric to track? How can I scale my team to support our products better? How can I add automation to scale redundant workflows? If my product involves working with developers, how can I scale to the complexity of the requests and reduce Engineering bandwidth? The challenges within support of open source products continues to magnify depending on the end user persona whether they are consumers or contributors to your product. Consumers utilize your product, SDK's and API's and are blocked with using it or run into issues, whereas contributors are advanced users of your software that understands the codebase to provide a meaningful contribution back to the product. The answer to the above is to look at Open Source support as a first-class citizen of your corporate support strategy. To employ the right level of developer focused support as opposed to traditional infrastructure based support is key to scale to the amount of developers using your product. Supporting customers in the open involves more than pure support - building customer / developer experiences (DX) in the open (across platforms and communities) that pivots over the ability of your product's users or developers to be focused on the end-to-end value add. This helps with your active developer growth and retention of users. Key Takeaways: - IT leaders of Open Source will learn to employ strategies to build a DX team that engages on multiple platforms - Work on identifying accurate metrics for product and organization - Innovate on platforms such as Discord to build a bot and a dashboard - Ability to leverage customer feedback and iterate over the customer success flywheel - Distinguish between DX and Developer Advocacy (DA) Find more info about All Things Open: On the web: https://www.allthingsopen.org/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/AllThingsOpen LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/all-things-open/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/allthingsopen/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/AllThingsOpen Mastodon: https://mastodon.social/@allthingsopen Threads: https://www.threads.net/@allthingsopen 2023 conference: https://2023.allthingsopen.org/

Presented at All Things Open 2023 Presented by Peter Czanik - One Identity Title: Sudo – Giving access while staying in control Abstract: Sudo is used by millions to control and log administrator access to systems, but using the default configuration only, there are plenty of blind spots. Using the latest features in sudo let you watch some previously blind spots and control access to them. Here are four major new features, which arrived since the 1.9.0 release, allowing you see your blind spots: - configuring a working directory or chroot within sudo often makes full shell access redundant - JSON-formatted logs give you more details on events and are easier to act on - relays in sudo_logsrvd make session recording collection more secure and reliable - you can log and control sub-commands executed by the command run through sudo Let us take a closer look at each of these. Previously, there were quite a few situations where you had to give users full shell access through sudo. Typical examples include when you need to run a command from a given directory, or running commands in a chroot environment. You can now configure the working directory or the chroot directory and give access only to the command the user really needs. Logging is a central role of sudo, to see who did what on the system. Using JSON-formatted log messages gives you even more information about events. What is even more: structured logs are easier to act on. Setting up alerting for suspicious events is much easier when you have a single parser to configure for any kind of sudo logs. You can collect sudo logs not only by local syslog, but also by using sudo_logsrvd, the same application used to collect session recordings. Speaking of session recordings: instead of using a single central server, you can now have multiple levels of sudo_logsrvd relays between the client and the final destination. This allows session collection even if the central server is unavailable, providing you with additional security. It also makes your network configuration simpler. Finally, you can log sub-commands executed from the command started through sudo. You can see commands started from a shell. No more unnoticed shell access from text editors. Best of all: you can also intercept sub-commands. These are just a few of the most prominent features helping you to watch and control previous blind spots on your systems. See these and other possibilities in action in some live demos during our presentation.

We should shift to designing around deployable components rather than code modules, use more useful levels of abstraction, and drive design and deployment from applications rather than bottom-up, monolithic architecture and delivery.

If you’ve ever had to analyze a map or GPS data, chances are you’ve encountered and even worked with coordinate systems. As historical data continually updates through GPS, understanding coordinate systems is increasingly crucial. However, not everyone knows why they exist or how to effectively use them for data-driven insights. During this webinar, you’ll learn exactly what coordinate systems are and how you can use FME to maintain and transform your data’s coordinate systems in an easy-to-digest way, accurately representing the geographical space that it exists within. During this webinar, you will have the chance to: - Enhance Your Understanding: Gain a clear overview of what coordinate systems are and their value - Learn Practical Applications: Why we need datams and projections, plus units between coordinate systems - Maximize with FME: Understand how FME handles coordinate systems, including a brief summary of the 3 main reprojectors - Custom Coordinate Systems: Learn how to work with FME and coordinate systems beyond what is natively supported - Look Ahead: Gain insights into where FME is headed with coordinate systems in the future Don’t miss the opportunity to improve the value you receive from your coordinate system data, ultimately allowing you to streamline your data analysis and maximize your time. See you there!

Solar Storms (Geo Magnetic Storms) are the motion of accelerated charged particles in the solar environment with high velocities due to the coronal mass ejection (CME).

Have you noticed the OpenSSF Scorecard badges on the official Dart and Flutter repos? It's Google's way of showing that they care about security. Practices such as pinning dependencies, branch protection, required reviews, continuous integration tests etc. are measured to provide a score and accompanying badge. You can do the same for your projects, and this presentation will show you how, with an emphasis on the unique challenges that come up when working with Dart and Flutter. The session will provide a walkthrough of the steps involved in securing a first repository, and then what it takes to repeat that process across an organization with multiple repos. It will also look at the ongoing maintenance involved once scorecards have been implemented, and how aspects of that maintenance can be better automated to minimize toil.

Not so much to say
