Build a Data Warehouse in Less Than 30 Minutes
Don’t think it’s possible to build a data warehouse in less than 30 minutes?
The same approach used by Shopify to create e-commerce websites and Salesforce App Builder and Microsoft Power Apps to develop applications, can be applied to building data warehouses, by using low-code data estate builders.
This session will explain how to ingest data to an Operational Data Exchange (ODX), create a Modern Data Warehouse (MDW), map tables from the ODX to the MDW, create a Date dimension, create a Product dimension, create a Customer dimension, create a Sales fact table, relate the dimensions to the fact table, create a semantic model, deploy and execute the solution, and connect to the semantic model from Microsoft Power BI, all in less than 30 minutes.

Five things I've learned as a new Engineering Manager
I’ve been a software engineer for my entire career. I’ve worked in various industries building and extending software that ranges from digital communication, to financial software and most recently healthcare technology.
When I first took the leap into people management, my career changed drastically. This talk covers important lessons I’ve learned as a new engineering manager and how you can apply those same lessons to your day to day, regardless of your role.

How is "works on my machine" still a thing in 2022?
The goal of every great developer is to ensure that they are doing the best job that they can. Yet, with the advancement of software and the move to cloud-native ecosystems these past few years, things have become more difficult.
While developers used to be able to focus solely on the code that lived in their local machine, they now are also responsible for what happens once it leaves their machine and deploys to production.
Understanding what happens to your source code when you’re done writing it is a must-have skill for developers, starting from the building stage, integration, testing, and all the way through the CI/CD process.
In this talk, we’ll discuss everything the code goes through from the minute it leaves your local machine. We will dive into all the practicalities that developers need to fully own in order to step up their coding game and why they need to do so. Finally, I will share my real-life experience on what it takes to be a next-level developer through owning your whole development process.

Iteration in projects?: The importance of gathering critical information.
In this talk, you will learn the importance of not skipping the steps of gathering information with the client and defining the acceptance criteria, either by phases (sprints) or one development at a time.
If you are one of those who feel that clients keep asking for changes and more changes after the software project is delivered and you keep falling into this time-demanding never-ending game, then this talk is for you.

Powering up your React app as a PWA
As web performance and user experience across both mobile and desktop devices continue to increase in importance, so do progressive web apps (PWAs). PWAs are becoming more popular because they have lots of enhancements that help your application perform better and they make apps accessible even to users with limited internet connections. In this talk, you are going to learn the advantages of using PWAs and how to turn your React application into a PWA.
User experience(UX) is extremely important to retain and scale your number of users. An important factor to increase your UX is web performance and accessibility, PWAs can help you increase this. PWAs are being used more every day and companies like Google and Microsoft invest millions of dollars a year to make this technology better for developers and end-users.

Benefits of Being a "Real" Polyglot Programmer
Professional Value and Cross-pollination
– Increase your market value
– Improve mobility
– Cross-pollinate communities and tools
Design By Contract (from Eiffel)
– Preconditions
– Postconditions
– Class Invariants
Test First Development (from Rust)
– Test and Production code as a single entity
Multi-branch with exception when none match (from Eiffel and many others)
– if-then, if-then-else,
– Traditional `switch`
– Pattern matching `switch`
Control flow structures as expression (from many functional languages)
– No need for ternary operator (e.g. from Kotlin)
Simple and powerful DTOs (a.k.a Records and Data Classes)
– Kotlin Data Class (20015)
– Java Record (2020)
– C# Record (2020)
AOP as DBC bridge
– Preconditions -> before
– Postconditions -> after
– Class invariants -> before and after “each”
Garbage Collection Strategies
– JVM’s Garbage Collection Algorithms
– .NET Framework stuck in just one
Speed vs Fragmentation
– The Gen-4th problem
– [De]Fragmentation and Speed
Avoid common pitfalls
– Similar languages (C#, Java, …)
