<p>Description:
<br>Python is a widely used general-purpose, high-level programming language. Its design philosophy emphasizes code readability, and its syntax allows programmers to express concepts in fewer lines of code than would be possible in languages such as C++ or Java. Python supports multiple programming paradigms, including object-oriented, imperative and functional programming or procedural styles. It features a dynamic type system and automatic memory management.</p>

<p>Description:
<br>I would like to talk about an open data solution built around CKAN, an
<br>open source data portal, and an optimized OData plugin developed to
<br>specific requirements for the Chinese market. This solution leverages important technology components from the China software development market with cloud platform to provide open source developers easy access and publishing tools with prevailing open data sources.</p>

<p>Description:
<br>Everyone loves the Raspberry Pi or Arduino, they are amazing little
<br>developer boards that drive almost all of the Internet of Things devices. Unfortunately they have one small problem... They're very, very expensive. Why do I need to shell out 30$ for a simple dev board, and 69$ for a GSM shield, when I can get a full smartphone for just 25$?! In this talk Jan Jongboom will literally break apart phones, introduce you to his alternative smartphone OS, hack volume buttons to control LEDs, solder some batteries and even juggle some devices.</p>

<p>Description:
<br>Most sys admins have a love-hate relationship with Icinga/Nagios based monitoring solutions. Utilitarian and backed by a sizable community, users have learned to live with shortcomings in scaling, configuration and integration with tools common to modern architecture. After tiring of fiddly hacks and convoluted configs, the Icinga team decided to build a new, accessible and flexible core. Icinga 2 was born – infinitely and easily scalable, even as a cluster-ready solution, with load balancing, automated replication and business process monitoring out of the box. The talk will introduce Icinga 2’s innovative multi-threaded architecture and explain how it allows countless clusters of monitoring instances to run at speeds as yet unseen, all while minimizing maintenance. It will demonstrate how popular tools such as Graphite, Logstash and Puppet integrate better and easier than ever before. In addition to that the talk will introduce the new Icinga Web 2 interface and give a brief introduction into the technical architecture. A live demo will follow and well as a look into development plans to come.</p>

<p>Description:
<br>Virtualization was the next Big Thing. Then cloud. Now, containers are at the peak of hype, led by the excitement surrounding Docker and containers. Project Atomic hopes to temper innovation with better
<br>management and control, and it's not alone: CoreOS, Docker's suite of enterprise products, and most recently, Ubuntu's Ubuntu Core all hope to capture this market. But what is the market? Is container technology the best plan for DevOps and an increasingly cloud-oriented IT?</p>

<p>Description:
<br>MariaDB is a community-developed fork of the MySQL relational
<br>database management system intended to remain free under the GNU GPL. Being a fork of a leading open source software system, it is notable for being led by the original developers of MySQL. The intent is also to maintain high compatibility with MySQL, ensuring a "drop-in" replacement capability with library binary equivalency and exact matching with MySQL APIs and commands.</p>

<p>Description:
<br>The LiMux project has gained worldwide attention in 2003 when the City Of Munich decided to replace Windows with a linux--based client. Today more than 15.000 clients run LiMux. LiMux heavily relies on popular FOSS components like (K)Ubuntu, LibreOffice or Firefox but also adds some self-made magic ingredients. This talk will shed some light on the techniques used and how they work together.</p>

<p>Description:
<br>systemd is a core component of most major Linux distributions. The
<br>project has been progressing fast in the past years, and there's a lot
<br>more to come. In this talk I want to give an overview on the areas we
<br>worked on in the past year (kdbus, nspawn, ...) how they are
<br>progressing and what's coming next. In this talk you'll hear first all the
<br>exciting stuff we have queued up for systemd!</p>

<p>Description:
<br>Bunnie will discuss underlying trends in technology that have conspired to enable small teams backed by user communities to create potentially disruptive open hardware ecosystems. Novena, an open hardware laptop that bunnie and his collaborator, Sean 'xobs' Cross, created will be presented as a case study of a project enabled by such trends.</p>

<p>Description:
<br>Web application testing is all about validating the user flow and
<br>checking the functionality available to the end user. We would explore
<br>some tools we can use to test the front end of a web application. Talk
<br>a little about tools like Selenium, Wait and see if we can use these
<br>along with the programming language of our choice. Also, I would be
<br>considering some of the common issues faced while front end testing
<br>comes to picture and discuss some best practices.</p>

<p>Description:
<br>Tools like Puppet, Ansible and Chef are well known for their power in
<br>managing thousands of servers. They're not as well known for
<br>managing workstations. The unique nature of workstations makes this
<br>use case challenging in occasionally surprising ways. Lyle Kozloff has
<br>been managing hundreds of desktops and laptops in an education
<br>environment using Puppet Open Source for the past two years and
<br>will share some insights, provide some tips and show some code that
<br>will help anyone wanting to leverage a configuration management
