Platform engineering: making organizational, cultural and technical choices

This session explores key concepts of platform engineering, the responsibilities of platform and application teams, and the cultural dynamics essential for successful collaboration. Gain actionable insights from real-world examples to enhance your platform engineering practices. The speakers will share their practical experience with designing, building, and operating a standardized platform for running cloud-native applications.

Continuous validation, getting grip on your non-functionals

Validating non-functional requirements only at the end of the project can lead to significant rework in the architecture and software, making necessary changes difficult and costly.

If you're not testing these non-functionals in the development process, it might be harder to make the changes that need to be done when you test these criteria at the end of the project. Your architecture choices typically influence the system's performance, scalability and reliability.

Ensure you incorporate the validation of non-functionals as early as possible in your development process. This will identify potential issues early, allowing for timely adjustments and ensuring the final product meets all necessary criteria. In this session, Tom will show the audience how to leverage the possibilities in Azure to verify your non-functionals using real-world examples.

Securing NuGet's Supply Chain Flow

Software applications are no longer built entirely from custom code. Instead, they are made up of a variety of third-party components, including open-source libraries, frameworks, and modules. Many developers appear to be unaware of the risks inherent in the software supply chain.

If you include software of which you don't know the origin, you are exposed to the risk of including malicious code in your software. There can be vulnerabilities in the package that could be exploited and used as a backdoor to harm your environment. One of the most famous examples was the finding of a vulnerability in Log4J.

To mitigate these risks, it is essential to understand and manage the components you use in your software. In this session will explore best practices for identifying, assessing, and managing third-party software components to ensure the security and integrity of your applications.
