Philly ETE 2017 #8 – C# and F# everywhere: inside open source .NET – Scott Hanselman

It’s finally happened. .NET Core and ASP.NET Core are open source and run everywhere. You can develop with .NET Core languages in the open on GitHub and iterate quickly. How did this happen? How does .NET and C# run on linux, windows, Mac, Raspberry Pi and Apple Watch? What language features do C# and F# bring to the table? Join Scott Hanselman as he delves into 15 years of .NET history and what it took to reach this point. [*Due…

Philly ETE 2017 #7 – The Swift Melting Pot – Daniel Steinberg

When the Swift programming language was released people argued about what sort of language it was. “It’s functional,” some argued and then criticized it for not being functional enough. “It’s OO,” others scoffed and then bemoaned the features they longed for from Objective-C. “It’s a Protocol Oriented language,” said Apple at the famous Crusty talk at their annual developers conference. In this fast-paced technical talk, we look at code examples that demonstrate how you can write better, more readable, more…

Philly ETE 2017 #6 – Cost-effective Telemetry Solutions: Balancing Between Blind & Broke – B. Wong

The modern operator faces a tension between varying levels of blind and varying levels of broke. Operational Telemetry solutions at scale are some of the largest, most expensive yet mission critical systems that exist. This talk focuses on the strategy and use of multiple providers to provide a suite of cost-effective telemetry solutions that work together.

Philly ETE 2017 #5 – “Somm” Lagom: Building Systems that Age Like Wine – Kiki Carter

Keeping up with the pace of change in emerging technology is an ever present challenge for enterprises. Trying to build systems that age and evolve gracefully over time is not a small task. We are all familiar with frameworks that help us implement architectural patterns, especially application architecture. In this session we will investigate Lagom, a new class of framework designed for system building, specifically, Reactive Systems. I will discuss common challenges I’ve encountered implementing large scale Reactive Systems and…

Philly ETE 2017 #4 – Saving Black Friday: Clojure to the Rescue – Alexander Solovyov

Two years ago it already was one of the largest ecommerce platforms in Ukraine. Built in Python/Django it couldn’t handle any spikes in traffic and was hard to maintain and improve. How do you change a platform on the fly? A tale of Clojure and ClojureScript, its incredible ecosystem and a crazy team which brought bleeding edge technologies on the screens of hundreds of thousands of people.

Philly ETE 2017 #3 – DevOps Disaster Recovery-Lessons from 50 Years of Aviation Disasters -M. Rogish

In this talk, we examine the failures of modern airline operations – from United Airlines flight 173 in 1978, to Air France flight 447 in 2009 and First Air flight 6560 in 2011 – and how the NTSB investigation and aftermath has dramatically improved flight safety. We take those lessons learned in disaster recovery and analysis, teamwork, task saturation, and systems design and apply them to modern software application and infrastructure architecture at scale to achieve higher availability, reduced errors,…

Philly ETE 2017 #1 – Loving Lean Android Layouts – Huyen Tue Dao

Layouts are the foundation of Android UI, and while they are seemingly straightforward, understanding how to develop efficient layouts is sometimes less so. However, efficient, “lean” layouts can be vital to both user experience and app performance. This session examines the importance of lean layouts, tools for analyzing layouts and their performance, tips and techniques for making layouts leaner, common mistakes and misconceptions, and general good practices.

Philly ETE 2016 #39 – Building Wireless Sensors with Don Coleman

This session will look at building wireless sensors on a variety of hardware: the super low cost ESP8266, the Particle Photon and it’s cloud services, and the new Arduino MKR1000.

Philly ETE 2016 #38 – Adventures in Elm: Events, Reproducibility, and Kindness – Jessica Kerr

This session gives an overview of Elm, then focuses on the Elm Architecture: how it overturns what is essential in object-oriented and even backend functional programming.
