WSO2 Carbon and Stratos provides a complete middleware platform for Enterprise computing: from on-premise to a full cloud-enabled runtime. In this session we will spend the morning looking at the Carbon platform – including leading ESB, AppServer, Governance Registry and more. In the afternoon we will look at the way this runtime is also available in a multi-tenant scalable, elastic architecture. This session will cover SOA and Cloud middleware, PaaS as well as digging deep into Cloud concepts.
This hands-on workshop provides a real opportunity to understand Carbon, OSGi middleware, PaaS, Stratos, and get going with a Cloud Platform. StratosLive is a complete running platform in the cloud, and participants will be encouraged to set up a tenant using their laptops during the workshop, and will understand how to install and use Stratos in a Private PaaS environment.
Understanding the core model of Carbon, benefits and approaches. Why is modular middleware important. Open source licensing and approach.
How do the main components in Carbon fit together, what are the benefits of an ESB-based approach. Integration and SOA. Governance and monitoring.
Introduction to Cloud Middleware and PaaS. How to use Stratos and StratosLive. Benefits of multi-tenancy, elasticity and metering in a cloud environment.
A deeper look at the internals of Stratos. Data in the cloud. Polyglot and multi-tenant data. Building SaaS web apps.
How WSO2 works. Agile development and Quickstart models. Licensing and business model. Case studies.
This session is aimed at developers and architects with a focus on enterprise middleware.

Airbnb has redesigned its identity system to support privacy-first social features in Experiences. The platform introduces context-specific profiles that separate global user identity from externally visible profiles, preventing cross-context linkage. The migration leveraged automated auditing, manual validation, and AI-assisted refactoring to enforce correct identity usage across services.

JEP 533, Structured Concurrency, has reached integrated status for JDK 27. It refines exception handling and type safety in its API, particularly focusing on exception flow with a new ExecutionException type. Changes include an updated Joiner interface and a new open overload for easier configuration. The steady evolution signals ongoing development as feedback shapes the API.

Paulo Arruda discusses Shopify’s evolution in AI adoption, moving from simple chat tools to a sophisticated swarm of specialized agents. He explains the transition from massive "all-in-one" prompts to lean, narrow-focused agent microservices that slash task times from hours to minutes. He also shares a future-looking hypothesis on using filesystem-based adapters to solve context bloat.

Backlogs in distributed systems are arithmetic problems, not mysteries. This article provides practical formulas for calculating backlog drain time, sizing consumer headroom, and setting auto-scaling triggers. It covers key failure modes — retry amplification, metastable states, and cascading pipeline bottlenecks — plus when to shed load instead of draining.
