Technology

STANDING ON THE
SHOULDERS OF GIANTS

FOSS WILL GET YOU THERE

THE CONCEPT

FOSS will help you start your business, innovate, and
grow.

THE IDEA

I have this great idea ... but I want
to get it out there quick before
someone else does...

WHY FOSS?

Avoid lock-in
Cheaper? No.
More flexible licensing
"More than one way to do it"
No need to reinvent the wheel*
More eyes = less bugs
More secure
* let the developers do that

MYTHS

"Open Source copies, it does not innovate"

"Open Source is just for amateur hackers"

"Free = less reliable"

"OSS Projects are not into making money"

DEBUNKING THE MYTHS

(1) people work harder on stuff they like.
(2) the standard office environment is very unproductive.
(3) that bottom-up often works better than top-down*

Source: Paul Graham, What Businesses can learn from Open
Source

*exceptions : e.g. Apple

DEBUNKING SOME MORE

Open Source adoption in business up 26% in 2007.*

Large FOSS Projects

MySQL
ZOPE
Mozilla
eZ Systems
* Source - Open Logic

BUT REMEMBER...

Open Source Software may cost just as
much, if not more, than proprietary
software.

CROWDSOURCING

Crowdsourcing is the new outsourcing.

We already know that DevOps is a mix of Development and Operation. Based on that knowledge we can assume that DecSecOps is a mix of Development, Security and Operation. But is it important for developers? And, in case it is, how to get started? During my session, I will explain what OWASP is, what are the most common security risks, how to protect your app from them and how to do it in a repeatable and reusable way.

A ridiculously long presentation from IBM Connect 2013, formerly Lotusphere, from Rob Novak @IBMRockStar and Jerald Mahurin @SociallyCurious on the tools, language, and methods we used to transition from Domino, Quickr and overall web developers to becoming IBM Connections 4.0 developers. From the abstract: With IBM Connections 4.0, IBM has released the most important new platform - yes platform - for social business development since the Notes client. As a Domino developer, you have excelled. Now, faced with an entire new glossary of terms, new concepts in customization and development, and a whole new set of tools, it could take some time to get up to speed. This session will help you cut weeks off that ramp-up time by showing you exactly what a Connections development environment looks like. We'll cover how to choose your tools and toolkits as well as configuration for development and testing. From the fundamentals of skill gap identification to real working samples, this session is sure to give you a huge head start.

Media, messaging and telecommunications convergence is now accepted as the norm. Convergence has resulted in greater consumer choice, lower costs and incredible innovation. It is important to note that even incumbent vendors in this space have much to gain from such convergence as it results in the potential to offer higher value services to customers, thus creating more revenue opportunities. Enterprise IT has not yet seen convergence come home. We continue to create separation between BPM, SOA, EDA, WOA, SaaS, Cloud computing and more. Unlike the case of telecommunications convergence, however, in the enterprise IT world the incumbents are actually not incentivized to fuel convergence as they continue to "cash in" on old investments, slightly refreshed in some cases. Fortunately, all hope is not lost! As open standards focused on interoperability become more pervasive, many traditional technological boundaries are rapidly coming down and falling victim to convergence. Open source further accelerates the process by being the breeding grounds of untethered disruptive innovation resulting in simple, easy to use technologies which are made available freely, thus fueling rapid adoption. In this talk I explore the growth of convergence in enterprise IT and the radical simplicity it is delivering to enterprise architects & developers.

Building an Open Source iOS app: lessons learned Dec 12, 2016, Hacker Dojo (Santa Clara), 6pm In this talk I'm going to talk about lessons learned from building Sensorama (http://www.sensorama.org), an Open Source sensor platform for data science. The main theme of the talk will be Open Source: what is great about it, what is bad and how you must become a part of the Open Source community to really move quickly and benefit from it. For this project, I did both the code and the design, so you'll have a chance to see how solo-developer deals with time/feature constraints, which tools I've used and what my approach towards development in this mode is. In other words: I'll tell you what I did to stay sane. If the iOS development were a walk in a dark city park, this talk may turn out to be your flashlight.

In this presentation, you’ll get a practical high-level overview of how it actually works scaling development activities to many teams using serverless and cloud-native technologies. We’ll look at the tech itself, some example architectures and common concerns to address. While we are AWS-centric here, the lessons learned and advice are transferable to other clouds as well. First presented at AWS User Group Gothenburg, March 31 2022.

Machine Learning and Data Science are the hot technologies everyone is chasing this year, but sharing Machine Learning solutions is more complicated than simple source control. How do you share the process that allowed you to arrive at your solution? How do you effectively communicate between Data Scientists and Developers? How do I make it pretty so that I can present the work to non-technical stakeholders? This talk answers these questions using Azure Notebooks. We will walk through a real example of a Jupyter Notebook, its features and I how I created it. The topics covered include: • What are Azure Notebooks? How do they fit into the Azure Ecosystem? • What is Jupyter? What are it's strengths and weaknesses? • Mixing code snippets and execution results • Data Visualization for presentation and analysis • Markdown for exposition and formatting • Sharing and Source Control You'll leave with an understanding of Jupyter and Azure Notebooks and understand how to apply Azure Notebooks to real-world problems. TARGET AUDIENCE: Developers, Architects, Business Analysts, Data Scientists, Data Developers

AWS supports open source. AWS developers have contributed to key projects like Apache MXNet, Gluon API, EKS, and Serverless developer tools. Serverless services like AWS Lambda allow developers to build and run applications without thinking about servers. In 2016, we released an open specification called Serverless Application Model (SAM), a simple configuration file to define Lambda functions and other serverless resources. Since then we have open sourced the underlying implementation of SAM and several other tools to simplify the process of building serverless applications, including SAM Local, a popular CLI tool to run SAM-based applications on a local computer before deploying to the cloud. In this talk, we touch upon the story of open sourcing the SAM toolset. The talk will deep dive into how an open specification has kindled and nurtured an ecosystem of open source projects comprising of serverless examples, reference architectures, libraries, CLIs, and plugins. We will share some success stories of serverless projects like Chalice that went open and matured to become production-grade. We will also discuss the journey of SAM Local CLI from a weekend project to being open source with 6,000 downloads per month, 2,000+ Github Stars, 30+ contributors, and becoming an integral part of the toolchain. The developer community has helped SAM Local CLI work seamlessly on Windows, support APIs defined in Swagger files, improve unit test coverage, and support a lot of important features. The talk will also cover lessons learned and what worked for us in growing the serverless developer community.

This slide is prepared as a course work for E-Business Management undergraduate course at Yıldız Technical University, Industrial Engineering department. When we presented this subject we talked about relation between business and open source. For instance, some corporations has changed their models being from product provider to service provider. So this means a change in financial approaches. "Open source movement is strongly supported from open source software users and developers, according to their groups' agendas and discourses."

Generative AI refers to a class of machine learning algorithms that are designed to generate new data samples that are similar to those in the training data. Unlike traditional AI models that are trained to recognize patterns and make predictions, generative AI models have the ability to create entirely new data based on the patterns they have learned. This is achieved through techniques such as generative adversarial networks (GANs), variational autoencoders (VAEs), and transformer architectures, among others.

We will also discuss the various tools that support all aspects of Zero-ETL, providing attendees with an understanding of how they can adopt this innovative approach in their organizations. Lastly, the session will conclude with an interactive Q&A segment, allowing participants to gain deeper insights into how Zero-ETL can be tailored to their specific business needs and how they can get started today. Join us to discover how Zero-ETL can elevate your organization's data strategy.

The Zero-ETL Approach: Enhancing Data Agility and Insight

Safe Software

In today's digital world, trust is key to customer relationships, but keeping it is a huge challenge. Customers are well-informed and empowered, quick to change brands if their trust is broken, even if it costs them more. This puts a lot of pressure on organizations to handle trust and safety issues with great care and transparency. The challenge, however, is real. Fragmented solutions have left privacy, legal, and security teams in a perpetual cycle of catch-up, struggling to update privacy notices, manage customer data rights, and answer lengthy security questionnaires—all while trying to prove ROI to the business. It's a thankless job, filled with repetition, tedious tasks, and constant interdepartmental coordination. Combine this with fast regulatory changes and the quick evolution of AI, and it becomes overwhelming. Join this webinar to learn more about TrustArc's new innovative solution Trust Center, the only unified, no-code online hub for trust and safety information built for privacy, security, compliance, and legal teams. Trust Center streamlines your path to compliance, shortens the pre-sales cycle, and reduces both legal and regulatory risks, saving time, effort, and cost. This webinar will review: - Why companies are building unified Trust Centers for a robust privacy program. - How unified Trust Centers streamline sales cycles, ensure regulatory compliance, and reduce operational bottlenecks. - How compliance, legal, security, GRC, and privacy teams benefit from a unified Trust Center in terms of needs, pains, and outcomes. - How TrustArc Trust Center saves time and work while reducing legal, reputational, and compliance risk by effectively managing policies, notices, terms, and disclosures, and providing real-time updates on subprocessors.
