Developer Conference 8-12 Nov 2010, Malmö, Sweden
Track overview
Tuesday: NoSQL Day
Track: Architecture
Every program, from a tiny script to a large trading system, has an architecture. The architecture is the internal structure and interactions of the program as well as the environment with which it interacts. Should you use relational databases, graph databases or persistent maps? Is a distributed core better than a monolithic? What is Event Sourcing and is that right for my situation? Is functional programming better than imperative for this task? Why? Why not? When? Where? In architecture there are no simple answers, it depends on the context; the environment, the people, the requirements, etc. Whether you plan it or not, at the end of the day, an architecture is what you get. It is truly better to plan it! Come learn the tricks of the trade at Oredev!

Java provisioning in the cloud
This session will overview cloud provisioning tools written in java and clojure. First, we'll overview general provisioning concerns and how devops relates to the java landscape. We will show examples that work on several clouds via use of the jclouds framework. Examples will include using Whirr to manage hadoop and zookeeper clusters, Chef to manage all of your cloud node configuration, and clojure for ad-hoc cloud administration tasks.
Adrian Cole
Adrian founded the open source project jclouds last year, as well as
cloudhackers, an open source collective focused on cloud interop. He has
previously also worked as a cloud ecosystem architect at VMware, helping make vCloud Express
relevant to developers and ISVs. Adrian currently works at Opscode and have spent a lot of time on java-chef integration.

Challenging requirements
In this presentation, Gojko Adzic talks about common failure patterns with requirements and specifications on agile projects and talks about ideas, patterns and practices for requirements and specifications that lead to much less rework, more consistent specifications with less functional gaps and ultimately happier customers.

The Counterintuitive Web
The Web doesn't care for your finely-honed application architecture principles - for your orthodox tell-don't-ask, information hiding dictums, separated concerns, and guaranteed and reliable delivery strategies. It's an irresponsible place, where exposing your data, polling for results and making your errors the client's problem are considered acceptable behaviour. But despite all this, it consistently beats our enterprise application efforts - and all at massive scale
Ian Robinson

Rails 2.3, 3.0 and 3.1: Past, Present e Future
In late 2008, the two biggest frameworks existing in the Ruby community (Rails & Merb) decided to merge and announced the beginning of a series of efforts from where would emerge Rails 3.0. Since the announcement, the community was surrounded by questions about how the future would look like. Will Rails change its philosophy? Which concepts will Merb bring to Rails?
Now, almost two years later, Rails 3 is out and rocking solid.
José Valim
José is the lead-developer and co-founder of Plataforma Tec and a member of the Rails Core Team. He started working with Ruby and Rails in late 2006 and he began contributing actively to Rails during his Google Summer of Code 2009 project, leading him to be invited to be part of the Rails Core Team a few months later. Some say that it is his eureka time to code and bring new open-source projects to life.

Pragmatic Interoperability: Making Java and .NET play well together
In this talk, learn how the two environments can interoperate with one another, not only over web services, but also via in-process channels and other methods. Along the way, we'll talk about how to leverage the strengths of each, such as using MS Office to act as a "rich client" to a Java middle-tier service, or building a Windows Presentation Foundation GUI on top of Java POJOs, or even how to execute Java Enterprise/J2EE functionality from within a Windows Workflow host.
Ted Neward
Ted Neward is a consultant specializing in high-scale enterprise
systems, working with clients ranging in size from Fortune 500
corporations to small 10-person shops. He is an authority in Java and
.NET technologies, particularly in the areas of Java/.NET integration
(both in-process and via integration tools like Web services), back-end
enterprise software systems, and virtual machine/execution engine
plumbing.
