Event Description

Hello GatorJUG,

This month, March, we have the pleasure of another presentation from a special very talented developer for our monthly meeting. Curtis McMillan will be our speaker.

TITLE

Why mock when Arquillian rocks?!

 

ABSTRACT

Unit testing is a waste of time.  Yep, I said it.  If your application runs inside a container, like say a Java EE application, how do you unit test code which depends on container provided services such as security, transaction management, and injection?  Well you simply mock the transaction manager, and the security layer, and the injected dependencies, and whatever else your code depends on and then, finally, you write your unit test.  Simple right?  Stop making a mockery of testing and start writing real tests, for real code, running inside a real container.  Come see how Arquillian makes this a snap and will make you cooler, smarter, and even better looking.

Presentation: The Way We Manage Compliance Is Wrong… And Is Changing! Bringing DevOps Principles to Controls and Audit

Ian Miell shares the open-source Continuous Compliance Framework (CCF), a tool for modernizing audits and controls. He explains how current manual, periodic compliance fails, especially with new regulations like DORA. He demonstrates how CCF leverages DevOps principles, agent-based architecture, and the OSCAL standard to provide continuous, centralized visibility across hybrid estates.

From Outages to Order: Netflix’s Approach to Database Resilience with WAL

Netflix uses a Write-Ahead Log (WAL) system to improve data platform resilience, addressing data loss, replication entropy, multi-partition failures, and corruption. WAL decouples producers and consumers, leverages SQS/Kafka with dead-letter queues, and supports delay queues, cross-region replication, and multi-table mutations for high-throughput, consistent, and recoverable database operations.

Mini book: AI Assisted Development: Real World Patterns, Pitfalls, and Production Readiness

AI is no longer a research experiment or a novelty: it is part of the software delivery pipeline. Teams are learning that integrating AI into production is less about model performance and more about architecture, process, and accountability. In this issue on AI Assisted Development, we examine what happens after the proof of concept and how AI changes the way we build, and operate systems.
