Hello OrlandoJUG folks!
Join us for an Open Spaces meeting this month, hosted by your JUG Leader, Mike. Open Spaces is a style of meeting in which everyone gets the chance to contribute. Mike has had many meaningful and enjoyable experiences over the years both leading and participating in Open Spaces meetings.
This will be a pot luck dinner style meeting with sponsors Cambridge Web Design, www.cambridgeweb.ie and another sponsor TBA. So, please bring a tasty dish and or beverage if you can. Don't worry if you can't bring anything. Just bring some energy to participate and an appetite.
Please RSVP here on this event announcement (you must be a Codetown member to see the RSVP option here, otherwise it's invisible!)
And, please help us by spreading the word about these meetings, and invite some friends. The Codetown invite feature us a great way to spread the word. Also, be sure to join the OrlandoJUG group here on Codetown to be notified about all the OrlandoJUG activities.

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.

Tom Akehurst explains strategies for overcoming microservice pain points like environment dependency and slow development. He advocates using realistic API simulation at scale, supported by contract testing , API observability, and GenAI integration. Learn to compose observations, simulations, and contracts to maximize confidence and reduce the toil of maintaining realistic, up-to-date mocks.
