<p>Docker & Java: What I wish I had been told!</p>
<p>Containers are nowadays more than a cool new tool to play with. They simply revolutionized the way we develop, architect and ship our softwares and become part of our day to day operations. On the other hand, Java has been around for more than 2 decades now, dominating the entreprise world. Both advocate the “RUN anywhere” principal! But, is it that easy ? No! Your perfect working local container, will, most probably fail on production because of MEMORY &/or CPU issues, since jvm apps assume they OWN the server they are running on.</p>
<p>In this session, will look at the gotchas of running JVM apps in containers & how to avoid costly pitfalls. What updates Java 10 brought to the table to improve container awareness. What are the issues related to prior versions and how to address each one of them to avoid the mess.</p>
<p>We will also highlight some tricks to obtain smaller images & best practices while writing your DockerFiles, showcase some plugins to helps none containers expert to integrate docker in their development process. We’ll finally introduce the concept of “Distroless” Docker Images and how to benefit from it.</p>

<p>Server-side micro frontends</p>
<p>This presentation will provide an overview of the microfrontend approach/architecture, and share some learnings from our experience in Standard Chartered Bank.</p>
<p>Microfrontend is an extension of the existing microservice architecture, pushing the concept even further towards the frontend domain. While the prior concept has existed, the evolution of web standards and browser technologies allows for a fresh take on it.</p>
<p>We will start by covering the concepts and principles behind microfrontends: what it is, how it is compared to existing architecture and development approach, and showcase existing adoptions.</p>
<p>Most importantly, we will discuss some of the learnings of a microfrontends implementation in Standard Chartered: what works well, what we felt could have been done differently, and some challenges for the future.</p>

<p>Chris Thalinger is a software engineer working on Java Virtual Machines for over 14 years. His main expertise is in compiler technology with Just-In-Time compilation in particular. Initially being involved with the CACAO and GNU Classpath projects, the focus shifted to OpenJDK as soon as Sun made the JDK open-source. Ever since Chris has worked on the HotSpot JVM at Sun, Oracle and now at Twitter.</p>
<p>Twitter’s quest for a wholly Graal runtime</p>
<p>Twitter is a massively distributed system with thousands of machines running thousands of JVMs. In any similar big system, a small change in performance and CPU utilization is multiplied thousandfold and results in big savings. Electricity costs, cooling costs, and possibly a reduction of server farm size. One way to improve Java performance and reduce CPU utilization is to simply generate better machine code. Simply is obviously not trivial but doable. Twitter is going down that road and experimenting with Graal to generate better code and reduce cost.</p>

<p>The age of micro-frontends</p>
<p>In recent years, we have done well to evolve from the big monolith, hard to change products, to developing small, independent, specific and highly scalable solutions in form of micro-services. Though one area, that hasn’t witnessed the revolution as yet in the front-end, plagued by complex, unstructured and hard to maintain implementations.</p>
<p>Won’t it be nice if you could develop front-ends with SRP, and as highly decoupled independent features that can be plugged with any web app, be it an age-old monolith, a SPA or PWA? Ever wondered if you could readily combine the powers of Angular, React and Vue in one single application?</p>
<p>Join us to discover the power of micro-frontends and know how?</p>

<p>Accelerate your career by establishing a feedback culture</p>
<p>Do you know what your co-workers value most from you? Do they give you advice where they see you in a couple of years? Tell you what you can improve?</p>
<p>We’ll have a look beyond code reviews and team retrospectives. Let’s look into techniques of giving feedback and how you can use your co-worker’s opinion as valuable career advice. Be warned as soon as you start asking for feedback you will learn a lot about yourself – and others want that too. Let’s also get prepared into giving valuable feedback!</p>

<p>He loves to think over the boundaries, mixing tinkering, communication, business, hobbies, games, etc. He wants to find some simpler truths that connect them.</p>
<p>He tries to share as much as he can by coaching others and by sharing my learnings in public workshops and conferences.</p>
<p>Originally from France, he is based in Singapore working as an independent consultant and coach.</p>
<p>How to run your transformation right</p>
<p>So many Agile Transformations drags and struggle. If you’re through a Transformation, could you describe its strategy? What’s the plan? If the only audible strategy is “let’s go Agile!” (aka wishful thinking) and the plan “roll out Agile across the organisation” (like a Windows upgrade), this is going to drag.</p>
<p>Habits, processes, politics, legal, etc., a random deck is stacked against you. The outcome is sad. The stretch of keeping the old while doing the new, the change fatigue is real and takes a huge toll on the people in the organisation. How’s your attrition rate by the way?</p>
<p>Us, Agile evangelist/managers/ directors, should have some strategic tools to manage the Agile « shock wave » in our organisations. There are real examples out there that tell us we can do better. There are approaches that have shown more effective. In this session, we will refer to the one I found most effective, 8 steps for leading change proposed by J.Kotter. We will cover * how to set up a strategy instead of a plan * change leaders Do and Don’t * how to see if your transformation is going well * patterns and anti-patterns of transformation.</p>

<p>The Importance of Culture in Innovation</p>
<p>There are many factors that determine the success of any organization, but the need to embrace technology, become responsive, and innovate has become increasingly critical.

<p>How to protect your company culture while growing?</p>
<p>Zenika was created 10 years ago and now has around 500 employees across the globe. It has been a long way and our employees have always been afraid of seeing our company growing. At the time we had thirty employees, our employees already had discussions about the fact that we should be afraid of growing too fast.</p>
<p>I always wondered why until I understood it’s not about the size but for a deeper reason. In fact, when you feel comfortable with the company culture, you are afraid to loose what you have, and the size of the company is one of the reasons that can change its culture and values.</p>
<p>My advice is not to focus on the size, but on the culture, how to maintain it, how to detect when things could change…</p>
<p>In this talk I will share our experience, what worked and did not work in total transparency (transparency being one of our company values).</p>
