The Melbourne, FL Coders, Hackers and Founders will have a presentation on using Ruby in the Cloud with Heroku as the cloud target. Speaker is Keith Johnson. The meeting is near the water in Melbourne. Check out where you'll be that night:
Ruby's cool. Heroku is amazing, with James Ward as their evangelist, and the Melbourne Coders, Hackers and Founders group is the newest entry to Florida's dynamic tech meetup scene. Sounds great! Advice is to bring your laptop so you can follow along.
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.
