Whether you're building a new architecture, tweaking your Python unicode, or optimizing your Java for performance, there are ways that you can fine-tune your practices to improve your efficiency and quality of work while reducing errors. O'Reilly's first online conference for software architects focuses on these matters. In four hours, we'll take you from line of code to the big picture, including an introduction to microservices and David McKinley's session "Choose Boring Technology" on making broader business decisions.
Hosted by Rachel Roumeliotis, conference chair for OSCON and the O'Reilly Software Architecture, the event is free, interactive (bring your questions), and worth your time.
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.

By Michael RedlichA new ransomware campaign, dubbed Codefinger, has been targeting Amazon S3 users by exploiting compromised AWS credentials to encrypt data using Server-Side Encryption with Customer-Provided Keys (SSE-C). Attackers then demand ransom payments for the symmetric AES-256 keys required to decrypt the data. AWS has released recommendations to help users mitigate the risk of ransomware attacks on S3.
By Renato LosioAWS recently introduced Availability Zone (AZ) awareness in version 1.2 of the open source Valkey General Language Independent Driver for Enterprise (GLIDE) client library. By implementing AZ affinity routing in the open source key/value datastore, developers can reduce latency and costs by directing requests to replicas within the same AZ as the client.
By Renato LosioUber embarked on a strategic migration from on-premise data centers to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) and Google Cloud Platform in February 2023. A key component of this migration was integrating ARM-based computers into their predominantly x86 fleet to reduce costs, improve price performance, and ensure hardware flexibility amid supply chain uncertainties.
By Claudio MasoloAI security hacker Johann Rehberger described a prompt injection attack against Google Gemini able to modify its long-term memories using a technique he calls delayed tool invocation. The researcher described the attack as a sort of social engineering/phishing attack triggered by the user interacting with a malicious document.
