Greetings, GatorJUG!
This month we'll talk about OSCON 2012. I ran into Clint Collins of GatorLUG there. Clint and I had the fortune to have lunch with Ward Cunningham, creator of the wiki wiki website, eXtreme Programming and Design Patterns co-author. Loads of new topics were explored and I hope to convey many to you.
This meeting is sponsored by Cambridge Web Design (CWD) ::: Working Software Developers!
Please invite some friends and RSVP here so we'll know how much pizza to order. Note: you must join Codetown to enable the RSVP - otherwise you won't see it!

Codetown is a social network. It's got blogs, forums, groups, personal pages and more! You might think of Codetown as a funky camper van with lots of compartments for your stuff and a great multimedia system, too! Best of all, Codetown has room for all of your friends.

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.

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.
