Greetings All,
You are invited to join us at the next GatorLUG meeting in "Innovation Central" Gainesville, Florida.
The Laboratory is closing at the end of this month. So, this will be the last month we will be able to enjoy the hospitality that Larry extended to us in this venue. My sincere thanks to Larry for allowing us to take over your entire space on the third Wednesday of the month and for all the great food and drinks.
Meetings are always free and open to the general public.

GatorLUG Meeting Agenda for October 17, 2012
6:00 - 6:30 Announcements / General Discussion
6:30 - 7:45 Highly Available Apache for the Masses | Martin Smith, Dan Stoner
(Attempts at) Highly Available, Fault Tolerant, Distributed Apache for the Masses
The Apache HTTP Server, commonly referred to as Apache, is a web server software notable for playing a key role in the initial growth of the World Wide Web. [1] Apache httpd has been the most popular web server on the Internet since April 1996, and celebrated its 17th birthday as a project this February. [2]
The Apache HTTP Server Project is an effort to develop and maintain an open-source HTTP server for modern operating systems including UNIX and Windows NT. The goal of this project is to provide a secure, efficient and extensible server that provides HTTP services in sync with the current HTTP standards.
Martin Smith and Dan Stoner are members of the Linux team at the UF Computing & Networking Services' Open Systems Group. They will be presenting an evolution of designs for highly available, fault tolerant, and distributed Apache servers for bulk hosting customers.

The Swift SDK for Android, recently released as a nightly build, is designed to help developers to port their Swift packages to Android, making it easier to share code across platforms. While the SDK is still in preview, over 25% of packages in the Swift Package Index can already be compiled for Android.

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.

Microsoft has announced a new Sponsorship feature on NuGet.org, designed to help package maintainers receive direct financial support from the community. As stated in the official announcement, the goal is to “make it easier than ever for consumers to recognize and support the authors behind their favorite packages,” while strengthening the overall .NET ecosystem.

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.
