This year, we're happy to announce 3 days of Java and Android training and 2 days of great talk, focusing on key areas where Java and open source are driving innovation: Java, Android, HTML5, JavaFX and JavaME.

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.
