Sessions


We want to help build a new and exciting era: entire businesses that are enhanced, if not outright powered by, technology. This means radically rethinking how we approach IT.

It should be taken as a given that IT cannot survive in its current form, and the architectures and ways we build systems today must be torn down and rebuilt.

Architecture and Engineering are vital parts of that equation. They are certainly not the only cards needed to create a winning hand, but are two of the most vital and most often overlooked.

We aim to cure the problem by providing the medicine that we’ve used successfully over and over again: lightweight architecture, lean culture, and DevOps.

Architecture Strategy vs. Architecture Tactics: difference between Architecting at the Enterprise level and at the Application level

Accenture Open Web Platform

Matt Lancaster (Accenture, USA)

Accenture Open Web Platform

Docker

Ilkka Anttonen (Accenture, Finland)

Docker

Lightweight Architecture Patterns

Dominik Wagenknecht (Accenture, Austria)

Lightweight Architecture Patterns

Crash Into to Angular 2

Jesse Warden (Accenture, USA)

Jesse will give you a crash course into what the new features of Angular 2 are, how they benefit you, and the new workflows emerging around it.

He’ll cover ES6 and TypeScript, the Gulp build system, the Traceur compiler, Component development, and other noteworthy Angular 2 syntax changes.

Architecting Modern Web Applications

Slavomir Kubacka (Accenture, Slovakia)

Starting Web application development from scratch brings a lot of questions and sometimes also a lot of trouble. Without proper rules and architecture it can take up to few weeks to just set up initial project skeleton.

In this session you will learn how to kickstart your web app development and how to force your architecture decisions.

This talk will cover following technologies: Backbone.js/Marionette, Grunt/Gulp, ES5/ES6, RequireJS/WebPack, Yeoman

Building modern apps with React/Flux

Lukas Jusko, Pavol Szorad (Accenture, Slovakia)

React became one of mainstream libraries used for developing modern applications. Accenture Open Web Platform (AOWP) is adopting modern stack based on React/Flux as an alternative to currently recommended Backbone/Marionette and AngularJS stacks. Presentation will cover architecture of the complete reference application built on this stack, inluding decisions behind used technologies - ES6, Babel, Webpack, Karma, Universal (Isomorphic) JS.

By the end of this presentation you will understand how to tackle some of the architecture requirements by modern lightweight technologies.

The speakers are certified Accenture technology architects with extensive experience in designing and delivery of the platform, client’s applications and integration.

Words are just not enough, you will have a chance to touch and feel it.

A Microservices Primer: Introducing the concepts, along with mobile-specific microservice considerations Hands-on example how to build some simple microservices A benchmarking exercise revealing the impact microservices-based architectures can have on mobile.

Docker and Java Development

Thomas Qvarnström (Red Hat, Sweden)

Docker and Java Development

Making Enterprise Java Architecture Sustainable

Markus Eisele (Red Hat, Germany)

In the past we've built component oriented applications with the tools we had at hand. This has been driven by the features available in the Java EE standard to be "portable" and easy to use.

Whilst this has been a perfect fit for many customers and applications, now there is increasing demand for highly integrated applications using already available services and processes from all over the place - think departmental, central and even cloud services. So our old approach feels more and more outdated, not just from a technology perspective but from all the requirements around it. We'll take a look back, in order to look forward by showcasing more diverse ways of building (Java EE) applications that better suit todays requirements and landscapes.

Hybrid Cloud

Wojciech Furmankiewicz (Red Hat, Poland)

Hybrid Cloud

Building Cloud-Native Applications

Michal Jemala (Mimacom, Slovakia)

This talk discusses various characteristics necessary to embrace cloud-native application architectures as oposed to the traditional monolithic and service-oriented approaches. We provide concrete recipes which will help you to decompose monolithic applications into microservices and incorporate fault-tolerant patterns.

In-Memory Data Management goes mainstream

Manish Devgan (Software AG, USA)

This session will cover Ehcache and Terracotta Server, one of the most popular open source projects backed by Software AG, its recent milestones, and how it continues to help developers easily leverage in-memory storage for current and emerging workloads. Two real world use cases – one of which leverages multi-terrabyte off-heap storage will be unboxed.

In the modern era we are overwhelmed by the amount of the data that we receive and generate. Internet companies, public state offices, IoT devices and many other generate massive amount of data which is easily available for us. But we still need to transform the data into information that gives us some value - we need to analyse it. We have cheap processing power available for almost any project, but implementing parallel data processing can be tedious and error prone task.

One of the Big Data tools that allows to use the processing power available today is Apache Spark. Apache Spark provides a generic engine for large-scale in-memory parallel processing of data. It allows to process streams of data, access it via SQL similar language, use machine learning and graph processing algorithms. By using high level primitives it abstracts us from implementing complex MapReduce jobs and by keeping the data in memory, it provides unprecedented performance.

In our presentation we will give an overview of Apache Spark, show how you can use Apache Spark to create your own computation cluster and use its distributed computing power for parallel execution of data analysis tasks.

Behind the modern Internet Banking

Marcel Valentko (CSOB, Slovakia)

How to deal with demanding world of current web applications? Pressure for fast development, high quality, frequent deployments and no outages are hard to fulfil without automation. Right way of integrating automation tools for testing, deployment and quality checks can boosts your deliveries while maintaining high quality and low overhead.

Everyone is talking about microservices these days! So the question is should you also jump on that bandwagon and why those somewhat older colleagues of yours (yep, those that still remember the EJB 2 revolution) are not that enthusiastic? To help you make the right decisions, this talk will first focus on explaining complexity - the problem microservices claim to solve. It then will concentrate on modular architecture and how it compares to what most people understand by microservices! Live demo will present multiple ways to modularize exiting JEE application going from "monolithic" Glassfish EJB/JSF style app through SpringBoot and OSGi to reach a distributed system with a portal as front-end.

Targeted audience is anyone interested in modular Java applications. Attendees will be provided with minimal introductory and historical information followed by some "getreal" type of statements that will hopefully discourage buzzword based decisions. The major part will be practical live demo (based on publicly available, pre-ready, commited in a stop-by-step fashion code).

And one more thing…

NOE: New Order Engine - Innovative & Lean BSS

Jaroslav Blazek (Accenture, Czech Republic)

The world is changing faster than ever and businesses are forced to make significant changes to their operations. Rising complexity, and growing interconnectivity together with push on agility of developments is perfect storm for transformations towards Lean Digital BSS systems using mature than ever Open Source platforms.

Example of such transformation is delivery of Award Winning Innovative solution based on RedHat Open Source platforms (BRMS/FSW) for Telecommunication Tier 1 operators. Implementation of mission critical systems with industrialized open source assets is also good example of cooperation between System Integrator (Accenture) and Red Hat (Platform Vendor) on large Business Transformation.
