In partnership with the Souss Massa Regional Council, the 9th edition of #DevoxxMA took place in Taghazout-Agadir and was an absolute blast. We welcomed more than 2,000 participants, as well as 120 speakers from renowned technology companies. 3 days of growth, knowledge sharing, and fun were enjoyed in this vibrant region.
Explore the power of a childlike learning approach in the workplace and discover how fostering curiosity, playfulness, and experimentation can transform your programming experience. In a working environment that encourages creativity, safe risk-taking, and collaborative learning, we achieve better problem-solving skills, a higher rate of innovation, and more happiness. Get ready to embrace a journey towards a love of lifelong learning and a more joyful and fulfilling coding career.
The human brain is divided into two hemispheres and each specializes in different types of tasks. Your right brain is great at imagination, intuition, art, rhythm, feelings, and dreams. While the left brain is more analytical and focused on logic, sequencing, linear thinking, and mathematics. Just like a human brain, generative AI excels at certain tasks, especially those to do with right-brain creative activities. However, in the absence of relevant and up-to-date information this produces confusing hallucinations that are not grounded in reality. In this presentation we will explore how knowledge graphs built with factual and updated information can be used to complement LLMs via graph retrieval augment generation (GraphRAG) in order to produce more reliable results.
It is undeniable that Kubernetes served as the gravitational point for the cloud native landscape. By elevating a pluggable system, multiple areas were developed in the industry, galvanizing solutions that set the fundamentals of interoperability, standardization, and open guidelines for tooling.
Today, the cloud native ecosystem is filled with solutions that enable practitioners to build their platforms based on their market criteria, with minimal compromises. However, very few of these practitioners are putting environmental sustainability on their agenda. Considering the critical point we have reached as a population regarding climate change, technologists must begin to think about their infrastructure from an environmentally conscious perspective and innovate through green technology.Â
Have you ever worked on a project that didn’t use any open source tools, libraries, or products? Didn’t think so…Using open source has been such an integral part of our daily work life that we don’t even think about it. We just expect it to be available, secure, stable, and bug-free. But how many of you are actually contributing back to an open source project?
This session will go through a couple of the aspects to consider when you are embarking on your open source journey. We will look at different kinds of open source projects, and what the open source foundations bring to the table.
Moving to Kubernetes opens the door to a world of possibilities, the amount of workloads that can be run and the flexibility it provides. However this comes at a cost on managing the resources used by many applications and teams. Java applications can be specially challenging when running in containers.
At Adobe Experience Manager we run our cloud service on more than 40 clusters. We make extensive use of standard Kubernetes capabilities to reduce resource usage and we have also built some solutions at several levels of the stack to improve it.
