Summit 2016: "Operations" - you keep using that word, but I don’t think it means ... / Avishai Ish-Shalom

DevOps, #NoOps, #serverless - every few years yet another movement to get rid of those pesky Ops engineers no one likes pops up. But like cockroaches, we can’t seem to be able to get rid of the buggers. Can it be we just don’t really understand what “operations” is all about?
When people hear “Operations”, they think of managing servers, of automation, CI and deployment pipelines. But Operations is not about any of that - operations is about making the machines you built/purchased/programmed earn money (or whatever the goal of the organization is). Making your business work is what operations is about.
This talk introduces the principles and history of Operations Engineering, the challenges and responsibilities of practitioners and the transformations IT Ops world is experiencing in recent years.

Summit 2016: You're great at writing code. You need to be greater at telling stories / Boaz Gaon

I've spent most of life amongst storytellers in journalism, stage and screen. I've spent the last two hiring and working with great engineers at Wisdo.com. It's my profound belief that great code writers are artists in soul and practice and that the architecture of stories can and should be taught to those who spend more of their days - solving stories rather than writing them. Code needs to serve a greater purpose. Stories provide that greater purpose efficiently. Finally, engineers who want to take the leap and become co founders - will need to know how to walk into a room, and make that room listen. There's a shape to that that can be taught.

Summit 2016: Simple, Battle Proven, Microservices Strategy / Erez Lotan

This is not yet another technology list, buzzword packed, look-how-good-we-are show off. Actually it is technology/language agnostic and I promise not to say Docker even once ;)
The newcomer into this world is overwhelmed with information, patterns, tools and practices. Having delivered numerous such projects, I'll try to separate the wheat from the chaff.
This is a clear recipe for the key practices you should keep when building continuously delivered microservice.

Summit 2016: The way to unified CI/CD using Ansible / Hadar Davidovich

At Ravello Systems we were relying heavily on CI/CD since the very early days. During the first 4 years of the company, our CI/CD framework changed and evolved to the point it went out of control and we decided to take all the experience from these years into a new and improved CI/CD. This session will share the lessons that we learned when we used multiple different tools as part of our DevOps work and why we choose to move to Ansible for provision environment on demand, setup vm, deploy code and orchestration of our tests flows.

We would discuss the process of re-doing the CI/CD from the beginning in small steps over more than a year while a large always developing group continue to push changes to production on daily basis.

To support the move we added new Ansible provisioning module that create environments in Ravello and new inventory for those environments. Since our backend is deployed in AWS directly and our tests runs on top of Ravello we added abstraction layer that allow us to write roles and playbooks that works on both environments without change. We will describe the technical aspects of this move including Jenkins integration, deployment module we developed and how we build and install client product we develop on multiple OSs.

Summit 2016: How to make a Lisp interpreter in 56 languages / Dov Murik

Mal (Make-a-Lisp) is a Clojure-like Lisp language invented by Joel Martin for educational purposes. It has interpreter implementations in 56 programming languages, including C, Java and Python, but also Make, PL/SQL, Vimscript and many others.
Building a Mal implementation is a great way to learn about Lisp in general and about the specific language you're implementing in. The talk will present the step-by-step process of building such an interpreter, incrementally adding features like variables, conditions, tail-call optimization and macros, finally reaching the last step which is capable of self-hosting (running the Mal interpreter which is written in Mal).

Summit 2016: Dealing with "Conway law" / Guy Doulberg

Considering “Conway's Law” as an axiom, I aim to consider several aspects of how the organizational communication structure effects software design. Rapid changes within cross-timezones organizations influence software architecture processes. What can engineers or architects do to guarantee a productive and quality assuring design and implementation process, that foresees ongoing organizational changes. Organizational changes are another requirement of the design and implementations of software system.

Summit 2016: Software Punk: examining controversial ideas in Software Development / Lior Bar-On

Let's discuss some "provocative" ideas in Software Development, that beyond being provocative - make some sense:
Inheritance is a bold violation of OOP Principles.
Duplicate code when you are not sure about the abstraction.
Copy-paste as a legit method of code reuse.
Git is not so good for you.
You spend too much on Unit Tests.
Reduce testing, and replace it with better production monitoring.

Summit 2016: Subdivision - a tiny library for building highly decoupled and modular web apps / Boris Kozorovitzky

https://github.com/BorisKozo/subdivision
Subdivision is a somewhat opinionated JavaScript library that helps you structure your code in a highly decoupled way. It is conceptually based on a battle proven Addin-Tree concept used in projects such as SharpDevelop (C#) but with a JavaScriptish flavor. I developed the library based on my experience working on both SharpDevelop and HPE VuGen while considering the special requirements one may have when developing a web application.
The library runs both in the browser and Node.js, is fully documented and has ~100% coverage in unit tests. Feel free to star/fork it on GitHub.

Summit 2016: Front End Test Automation: past, present and future / Oren Rubin

In this talk we will delve into one the biggest challenges of front end development, Test Automation. If you think unit testing is hard, getting started with end to end testing is horrific. The ramp up huge and the maintenance is hell. In this talk Oren will walk the audience into this world, starting with the differences between writing Unit Tests, show how to deal with asynchronous challenges, delve into UI validations, provisioning browser instances, and most importantly, creating robust tests which work in high fidelity while your app undergoes daily changes.

Summit 2016: The Next Linux Superpower: eBPF Primer / Sasha Goldshtein

Imagine you're tackling one of these evasive performance issues in the field, and your go-to monitoring checklist doesn't seem to cut it. There are plenty of suspects, but they are moving around rapidly and you need more logs, more data, more in-depth information to make a diagnosis. Maybe you've heard about DTrace, or even used it, and are yearning for a similar toolkit, which can plug dynamic tracing into a system that wasn't prepared or instrumented in any way.
Hopefully, you won't have to yearn for a lot longer. eBPF (extended Berkeley Packet Filters) is a kernel technology that enables a plethora of diagnostic scenarios by introducing dynamic, safe, low-overhead, efficient programs that run in the context of your live kernel. Sure, BPF programs can attach to sockets; but more interestingly, they can attach to kprobes and uprobes, static kernel tracepoints, and even user-mode static probes. And modern BPF programs have access to a wide set of instructions and data structures, which means you can collect valuable information and analyze it on-the-fly, without spilling it to huge files and reading them from user space.
In this talk, we will introduce BCC, the BPF Compiler Collection, which is an open set of tools and libraries for dynamic tracing on Linux. Some tools are easy and ready to use, such as execsnoop, fileslower, and memleak. Other tools such as trace and argdist require more sophistication and can be used as a Swiss Army knife for a variety of scenarios. We will spend most of the time demonstrating the power of modern dynamic tracing -- from memory leaks to static probes in Ruby, Node, and Java programs, from slow file I/O to monitoring network traffic. Finally, we will discuss building our own tools using the Python and Lua bindings to BCC, and its LLVM backend.

Summit 2016: Performance Limitations of React Native and How to Overcome Them / Tal Kol

React Native holds great promise in terms of excellent developer experience with Javascript and code reuse between platforms. The big question is  —  do these benefits come at the price of performance? How well can React Native hold its own against purely native implementations?

Background
I’ve been developing native mobile apps professionally for the past 7 years. I’ve seen many magical “cross-platform” solutions but eventually nothing beats pure-native in terms of app quality. The main thing developers are skeptical of is performance. React Native is unique in its ability to achieve amazing performance, but it requires developers to understand what goes on under the hood. The aim of this talk is to ease concerns for new-comers and teach existing developers a few important guidelines.

Summit 2016: A call out to engineers to become product managers / Yuval Samet

We have a great market gap in Israel when it comes to product management. The demand for world class product management is strong as our ecosystem creates companies at a greater global scale, however the supply of great product management talent is weak. In this talk I will try to convert engineers to product managers as I believe it is one of the best levers to pull in order to solve the gap. I will explain how product managers make engineers' life miserable, how to excel at product management as an engineer and hopefully inspire engineers to solve one of the biggest gaps our ecosystem currently struggles with.

Summit 2016: How to (really) create transparency / Iris Shoor


One of the main reasons developers and managers leave companies is lack of transparency. While most companies are all for transparency, very few manage to practice it. On this talk I'll cover different methods which all teams can easily adopt. Using dashboards, working better with Slack, internal podcast and even using democracy for some decisions. The talk will also focus on how to communicate business/ sales updates and how to handle 'bad' times.
