In 2016, it is expected that 6.4 billion connected ‘things’ will be used worldwide growing to over 26 billion connected devices by 2020. Value will be gained from the extra data that is produced if it can be captured and analyzed in time. For example retailers might be able to mine new sorts of product usage data to increase sales whilst car manufacturers will be influenced by the mass of engine management information to create new value added services like engineering intervention.

In this session we'll build a recommendation engine from scratch while paying particular attention to the modelling choices made along the way. The data and use-cases will come from meetup.com's social gatherings.
We want to provide recommendations to attendees for finding interesting topics, groups to join and events to attend. For organizers it should help them find non-competing, optimal schedules, optimize their events and...

Microservices need to be loosely coupled, and we know that messaging good for that, so why are there so many services communicating exclusively over HTTP? In this session we look at how to turn the tables and use messaging where it is appropriate with the minimum possible fuss using Spring Cloud Stream. While developing a sample application, you'll also see it deployed as part of a larger distributed system using Spring Cloud Data Flow (the new manifestation of Spring XD), which unifies...

Do you often look at example CD pipelines and think "If only our process were that simple"? Do you need to separately build multiple modules / components and then assemble them into a release? Does your unit of release need to contain more than just a single application? Are these delivered by multiple teams? How do you go about assembling these parts and then putting them through a pipeline to validate and deploy the whole assembly? And what about version numbers - do you version the...

Many things have changed over the last 10 years. The next 10 years will be no different. Though some key concepts such as integration are very unlikely to dramatically change, it doesn’t mean the systems you build today will last for decades either.
As a vendor, we have seen many customers at various levels of maturity. While some organizations have kept legacy baggage going for decades, others have kept iterating to a level...

The term "Microservice Architecture" has sprung up over the last few years to describe a particular way of designing software applications as suites of independently deployable services. (Martin Fowler).
The term MicroServices describes the componentisation of a complex deployment architecture into smaller independent deployable units that can be independently updated and scaled. The source of each component often winds up in...
