What is ReliefWeb
• ReliefWeb is a specialized digital service for the
United Nations Office for the Coordination of
Humanitarian Affairs) established in 1996.
• Global staff of 30 content editors aggregating
and curating content on a daily basis for the
Humanitarian sector.
• Over half a million items, growing by tens of
thousands per year, especially in
the community-sourced areas of jobs and
training.

RSS Was Not Enough
• “Here are the last 10 things: build your UI”
• Deep integrations are RSS-driven migrations, you need
to build an entire application and be responsible for
your own scraped copy.
• This means lots of overhead for innovation

So they Made an API
and...
• Built a mobile version of the site
• Built a trends & analytics site to
examine what’s going on in the
world across decades
• Building a new search system on
top of the API

Built on Open Source
PHP
nginx
ElasticSearch
Swagger
Composer
Klein
Elastica
Jenkins
... etc

Especially
ElasticSearch
• Provides a wealth of search & analysis
functionality for the API.
• Booming community of tools, especially
monitoring.
• Separately scales from main content storage.
• API app focuses on creating a developer
experience.

Opening the API
• Public data, public need, public innovation.
• Already have a webapp, what more could we need?
• (A systematically managed platform.)

API Provider says...
Scale
Analytics
Policing
API Consumer says...
Reliability
Usability
Documentation
Invested

Usability & Reliability
• Hypermedia
• JSON
• CORS (Browser-friendliness)
• Backwards Compatibility a.k.a.
Forwards Compatibility
• Testing (all the ways)
• Getting here is a new version and
over 80% code change

More People Sharing ReliefWeb’s
Mission
• Want people to be able to easily
execute on ideas
• There’s not time to spend days or
weeks learning the system.
• Meaningful usage helps fulfill
ReliefWeb’s goals and drives
technology investment.

Roadmap Teaser
• Infrastructure Upgrade to improve Reliability & Scale
• Usage analytics to target improvements and monitor
community impact.
• SDK & Web Widgets to facilitate integration
• Geo & Semantic use cases

This is a session given by Bill Doerrfeld at Nordic APIs 2016 Platform Summit on October 25th, in Stockholm Sweden. Description: At Nordic APIs, our goal is to help businesses make smart tech decisions using APIs. To that end, via events and content Nordic APIs has treaded the business and technical sides to consider holistic best practices for providing an API. In this introductory Summit keynote talk, I’ll introduce what we’ve learned in the form of 6 core tenants of API practice which we’ve also designed this conference to address. Together they define a functional and evolving API: Platformification: Becoming an API-first company means undergoing a platformification process. This represents a global trend that many argue needs to be adopted to keep your business competitive within the digital economy. Strategy: Even before development begins, it’s important to consider your core API strategy. This is a defensible position that aligns your tech with platform goals, strategically exposing internal assets catered to an industry niche. Business Models: APIs have the power to improve efficiency, reduce overhead cost, open up complementary revenue streams, extend R&D, or even alter an existing business model entirely. Thus, you’ll want to determine the right monetization method that improves overall business and leads to end profitability. Security: With new major data breaches reaching the public ear every month, the importance of digital security can never be underestimated. For APIs, much of that lies in monitoring usage, access management, and identity control. Design: No developer wants to use an API with an ugly developer portal, unintuitive URL structures, outdated technology, or terrible lag time. In order to keep your developer consumer happy, paint the API portal and overall developer experience with an aesthetic brush. Marketing: In order to spark adoption, you need to have more than awesome functionality. I’ll review evangelism and discovery techniques you can use to get an API in the hands of more developer users. We’ll look at specific successful implementations of these philosophies in the wild, and mention examples from our blog and eBook content that have brought in industry experts to share their insights. I’ll initiate dialogue and open the conference up to see where we’re heading. What you can get out of embracing the core tenants of API practice?

No matter the metric, serverless is definitely gaining interest. It’s the dream of every developer, supplying the ability to deploy services in the cloud in no time, automatically scale them, enjoy automagic management by a cloud provider—and, most important, keep it all cost effective! How does this dream become a reality? This session covered what serverless is all about and the benefits of running your apps in the serverless environment. It covers the monoliths-microservices-functions progression and when, where, and why to use serverless architecture and how Project Flogo fits in to the overall picture

Developers are excited about serverless computing, and rightfully so. With serverless, developers can spend more time writing code and less time worrying about, you guessed it, servers! But is serverless the right abstraction for every workload? How does serverless differ from an application platform? And despite the name, there need to be servers somewhere … Who’s managing them? Join us for a look at serverless computing and what it means for both developers and operations teams in the enterprise. In this webinar, Guest Speaker Forrester VP and Principal Analyst John Rymer and Pivotal’s Mark Fisher will cover: - What serverless is (and what it isn’t) - The current serverless open source and market landscapes - How serverless fits into modern application infrastructure - What workloads are best suited to serverless (and which aren’t) - Advice to developers (and operations teams) for getting started with serverless Presenters : Mark Fisher, Pivotal and John Rymer, Forrester

Many API programs get launched without a clear understanding as to WHY the API should exist. Rather, many are focused on WHAT the API consists of and HOW it should be targeted, implemented and leveraged. This presentation focuses on establishing the need for a clear WHY proposition behind the decision. The HOW and then WHAT will follow from that. This presentation also uses the history of the Netflix API to demonstrate the power, utility and importance of knowing WHY you are building an API.

Over the last five years, Drupal has made a huge splash in the Government sector and has quickly become the open source CMS platform of choice. If you’re not already using Drupal, it’s likely that it’s come up as an option. It’s a powerful and flexible framework, and because of this the answer to the question ‘Can we build this with Drupal?’ is usually ‘Yes’. That said…your ‘yes’ should sometimes be ‘It depends’. Understanding the reasons why government has taken interest in Drupal is key to understanding how and where it is best used. Drupal has core strengths that line up with key needs, but there are things it doesn’t do well. How do you make sure that you’re not asking Drupal to do too much? Conversely, even if Drupal is the best choice, how do you make sure your architecture is sound, your project plan is tight, and your business strategy is appropriate? We’ll look at some case studies from various levels of government from federal to local, examine the challenges faced, and review lessons learned. If your project needs to stretch Drupal to its breaking point, how do you mitigate the technical, project management, and business impacts? How do you weigh the pros and cons of using Drupal when you are planning a project, and what are the key warning signs in an RFP that warn against it? And even when the needs of the client project line up cleanly with Drupal’s core strengths, how do you identify the risk areas when it seems like a match made in heaven? Drupal is a powerful tool and can transform the work you do, but being educated as to its strengths and weaknesses protects you and your project, whether you are a contractor or contract officer, internal technology team or external developer.

Red Hat needed a new pattern library that would be flexible enough to integrate into our current Drupal 7 site, yet powerful enough to build future D7, D8 and other Red Hat branded sites. This pattern library would create a consistent, brand approved, look across all of our web properties, and become a common UI development platform for Designers, UX, Devs and Project managers. In this case study we’ll explain our architectural approach to deliver dozens of tightly packaged components to Redhat.com and other web properties through a variety of distribution methods.

At Phase2, we do things a little differently when it comes to design. While many teams are stuck in the “design first, develop second, theme last” way of doing things, we link our multidisciplinary teams together by a common vehicle: design systems. Each piece of the system, including our prototyping tools, live within the platform, allowing us to integrate processes like creative design, prototyping, front-end methodology, and implementation. We call this “The New Design Workflow.” This session will feature a panel of Phase2’s most experienced designers and front-end devs for an inside look at our best practices, tips and tricks. Plus, hear us weigh in how Drupal 8 will interface with your favorite front-end tools like PatternLab.

After building one of the first enterprise Drupal 8 platforms, we speak from experience when we say: if you are an enterprise organization, you should be seriously considering the move to Drupal 8. For many in the Drupal world, Drupal 8 is still viewed with apprehension. With this panel, we’re here to unveil the D8 mystery. In the changing CMS landscape, enterprises have a lot to gain from the more decoupled, API-focused content repository that Drupal 8 is evolving toward. Drupal’s paradigm shift will vastly improve the way organizations ingest, store, publish, and distribute content through multiple channels. But is the investment worth it? For the enterprise, our answer is an enthusiastic yes. In this session, discover: How Drupal 8’s structure fundamentally changes the way organizations approach platform building The impact of Drupal 8’s configuration management improvements The benefits of integrated front-end tools and external libraries The challenges enterprise organizations will face adopting Drupal 8 (and how to overcome them) How other enterprise organizations are already harnessing the power of Drupal 8 How to get started!

Memorial Sloan Kettering is preparing to launch two websites in Drupal 8. As one of the first organizations to migrate its Drupal 6 content management system onto an enterprise Drupal 8 platform, Memorial Sloan Kettering has learned first hand the major challenges and advantages of building in Drupal 8. In this session, project members from MSK, Phase2, and Digitas will explore the decision to take the leap to Drupal 8 and the reality of building in D8 while it is still a beta. Get details on the brute force migration process, front-end integrations and wiring up with twig in practice, and community contributions to accelerate Drupal 8 in the process of a flagship redesign for one of the leaders in the healthcare space. We’ll elaborate on the challenges we faced and strategies we used to build on Drupal 8 and how you can learn from them! Finally, we’ll answer some of your most burning questions: How did you accomplish moving an existing Drupal 6 site with 25,000 plus pages of content to Drupal 8 while redesigning at the same time? Should other organizations consider building in Drupal 8? What tools and best practices were used by developers/sys admins? What contrib modules are being used? How difficult was it for the team to learn Drupal 8? What is being used for layout and webforms?What external libraries and APIs are being used?

Not surprising then, that issues with Teams calls are among the most common problems users call their helpdesk for. Having in depth insight into everything relevant going on at the user’s device, local network, ISP and Microsoft itself during the call is crucial for good Microsoft Teams Call quality support. To ensure a quick and adequate solution and to ensure your users get the most out of their Microsoft 365. But did you know that ‘bad calls’ are also an excellent indicator of other problems arising? Precisely because it is so noticeable!? Like the canary in the mine, bad calls can be early indicators of problems. Problems that might otherwise not have been noticed for a while but can have a big impact on productivity and satisfaction. Join this session by Christoph Adler to learn how true Microsoft Teams call quality analytics helped other organizations troubleshoot bad calls and identify and fix problems that impacted Teams calls or the use of Microsoft365 in general. See what it can do to keep your users happy and productive! In this session we will cover - Why CQD data alone is not enough to troubleshoot call problems - The importance of attributing call problems to the right call participant - What call quality analytics can do to help you quickly find, fix-, and prevent problems - Why having retrospective detailed insights matters - Real life examples of how others have used Microsoft Teams call quality monitoring to problem shoot problems with their ISP, network, device health and more.

The presentation explores the development and application of artificial intelligence (AI) from its inception to its current status in the modern world. The term "artificial intelligence" was first coined by John McCarthy in 1956 to describe efforts to develop computer programs capable of performing tasks that typically require human intelligence. This concept was first introduced at a conference held at Dartmouth College, where programs demonstrated capabilities such as playing chess, proving theorems, and interpreting texts. In the early stages, Alan Turing contributed to the field by defining intelligence as the ability of a being to respond to certain questions intelligently, proposing what is now known as the Turing Test to evaluate the presence of intelligent behavior in machines. As the decades progressed, AI evolved significantly. The 1980s focused on machine learning, teaching computers to learn from data, leading to the development of models that could improve their performance based on their experiences. The 1990s and 2000s saw further advances in algorithms and computational power, which allowed for more sophisticated data analysis techniques, including data mining. By the 2010s, the proliferation of big data and the refinement of deep learning techniques enabled AI to become mainstream. Notable milestones included the success of Google's AlphaGo and advancements in autonomous vehicles by companies like Tesla and Waymo. A major theme of the presentation is the application of generative AI, which has been used for tasks such as natural language text generation, translation, and question answering. Generative AI uses large datasets to train models that can then produce new, coherent pieces of text or other media. The presentation also discusses the ethical implications and the need for regulation in AI, highlighting issues such as privacy, bias, and the potential for misuse. These concerns have prompted calls for comprehensive regulations to ensure the safe and equitable use of AI technologies. Artificial intelligence has also played a significant role in healthcare, particularly highlighted during the COVID-19 pandemic, where it was used in drug discovery, vaccine development, and analyzing the spread of the virus. The capabilities of AI in healthcare are vast, ranging from medical diagnostics to personalized medicine, demonstrating the technology's potential to revolutionize fields beyond just technical or consumer applications. In conclusion, AI continues to be a rapidly evolving field with significant implications for various aspects of society. The development from theoretical concepts to real-world applications illustrates both the potential benefits and the challenges that come with integrating advanced technologies into everyday life. The ongoing discussion about AI ethics and regulation underscores the importance of managing these technologies responsibly to maximize their their benefits while minimizing potential harms.

Created by Mozilla Research in 2012 and now part of Linux Foundation Europe, the Servo project is an experimental rendering engine written in Rust. It combines memory safety and concurrency to create an independent, modular, and embeddable rendering engine that adheres to web standards. Stewardship of Servo moved from Mozilla Research to the Linux Foundation in 2020, where its mission remains unchanged. After some slow years, in 2023 there has been renewed activity on the project, with a roadmap now focused on improving the engine’s CSS 2 conformance, exploring Android support, and making Servo a practical embeddable rendering engine. In this presentation, Rakhi Sharma reviews the status of the project, our recent developments in 2023, our collaboration with Tauri to make Servo an easy-to-use embeddable rendering engine, and our plans for the future to make Servo an alternative web rendering engine for the embedded devices industry.
