On the practical side, you'll see how to work with Event Storming to map out business needs, and discover new opportunities in the domain. Then, you'll see how to use Event Storms as the basis for slicing up the business into domains and subdomains which are the candidates for software architecture and team boundaries (using various flavours of Event Storming (big picture, process modelling, software-design).


You'll also get a chance to analyze scenarios presented in other formats like Domain Message Flow Modelling and the Bounded Context Canvas. And you'll get to switch into the architect role and design architectures with these techniques yourself.


Throughout this course, you'll get to experience a diverse number of scenarios from different domains, based on the real world experiences of Max and Nick. While the course is largely hands-on, you will also learn the necessary theory even if you have no previous experience of Domain-Driven Design.

Strategic Domain-Driven Design: Analysis, Architecture, and Modelling

Architecture

Let us venture on a journey into the wonderful world that is software exploitation and learn how to use gamified safe environments to build skillsets to help us write better and safer software. Because once you learn how to hack, you never go back.

In this workshop, we go in-depth and learn and perform exploits.


This is a hands-on workshop. All attendees need to bring a laptop to follow along with labs and exercises.

Best practices for building at cloud scale

Tips & Tricks for leveraging Docker and Kubernetes

We'll look at the commands and ecosystem around building infrastructure as code, local and cloud clusters, and best practices with containers. Come see why devs and ops love Kubernetes.

 running on your machine in Kubernetes mode.

Teach you the skills to leverage Docker and Kubernetes in your environment today.

Why are we learning Docker too? The Kubernetes story begins with "so you've got a Docker container ...". Docker is how we build the images; Kubernetes is how we run these containers at scale.


Because Docker leverages the OS's virtualization technologies, the install requirements for Docker are 

 specific. Ensure you exactly meet these specs to get the most from our time today:


- 2010 or newer model with Intel's MMU virtualization
- OS X 10.15 or newer


- 64-bit Windows
- Windows 10 version 2004 or better
- Access to your machine's BIOS to turn on virtualization
- Administrator access to run Docker Desktop and a console as Admin


-64-bit Linux these versions or better: Ubuntu 14.04, Debian 7.7, CentOS 7, or Fedora 24 or better

Kubernetes Hands-on Workshop

Kubernetes

Roll up your sleeves and build an app that you’ll actually be able to hold in your hands! Over two days, we’ll learn all about .NET MAUI by building a real-time chat app that can run on desktop or mobile and see how you can use device and platform features with simplicity. Learn important concepts like layouts and controls, authentication, and enterprise development patterns and practices like MVVM.

Whether you’re building apps for enterprise or consumers, the concepts and topics we cover will give you a glimpse of the breadth and depth of what .NET MAUI has to offer.

Setting the Stage: Dive into project setup, tooling essentials, and kickstarting our .NET MAUI journey.

Device Dynamics: Harness key device features, transforming apps from static interfaces to responsive experiences.

Chat Mechanics: Understand real-time connectivity using SignalR, ensuring instantaneous communications.

Page turners: Explore intuitive page navigation and user experience elements.

Crafting maintainable apps: Familiarise with the MVVM pattern, organising your application's logic for maintainability and scalability.

Secure and personalise: Dive into user authentication techniques and craft tailored user profiles.

Beyond One-on-One: Grasp the nuances of creating chat groups and channels, fostering community interactions.

Engaging Practicality: Hands-on sessions to integrate your learnings, taking your chat app to the next level.

VS Code with the .NET MAUI extension installed

You’ll need a powerful enough Windows or Mac laptop to run the IDE and debug code while running on an emulator or simulator.

To get the most out of the workshop you’ll need a physical iOS or Android device to test your code on. For iOS devices, enrolment in the Apple Developer program will be helpful.

In this tutorial, we will look at distributed systems, such as microservices, and how we integrate them. We will understand why we would prefer to messaging, the fundamentals and key concepts of messaging and how to build an event driven architecture. If you have ever been put off moving from HTTP or RPC-based solutions to messaging because of the need to learn how to implement messaging-based solutions, this workshop will get you started. if you have been using messaging but want to gain a firmer understanding of how to build event driven architectures, this workshop will help you understand how to succeed with reactive approaches.



The material is presented in four parts: integrating distributed systems, an introduction to messaging (hands-on exercises), advanced messaging, and event driven architectures.

Hands-on exercises are offered in C#, JavaScript, Python and Go.



Messaging Architectures and Simple Patterns

Insights from Paper Offices and Flow-Based Programming

Commands or Event? Orchestration and Choreography.


We will use Rabbit MQ for examples. You need not have the latter installed on your machine, but you should have Docker installed on your machine, as exercises will use Docker Compose.

This is a Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) course. At BYOD courses delegates are required to bring their own laptop with the necessary software installed.

The exercises are self-paced and you will find it helpful to have headphones to listen to the material that accompanies each exercise (though scripts are provided for those who cannot use headphones).

This workshop has been updated to take advantage of new features in .NET 8 & C# 12 including Blazor, Minimal APIs, Identity Endpoints, container build, and more, as well covering the brand-new distributed application stack for .NET, Aspire. You’ll build a complete distributed application from scratch over two days, taught by the software and product architects responsible for ASP.NET Core and .NET Aspire.

This workshop is targeted at participants who are interested in learning how to build web and API applications in ASP.NET Core and .NET Aspire. You can be new to .NET, or be building ASP.NET Core applications already, but some basic development experience is expected.

Basic software development experience is required, including familiarity with basic programming language constructs, tools, and techniques.

Web development experience is preferred but not required.

Application Building with .NET Aspire & ASP.NET Core 8

The Engineering Manager doesn't need to be the most technical person in the team, a psychologist, or a bad cop. You only need to have enough leadership tools in your pocket.

In Atlassian, as one of the young industry thought leaders, engineering managers use a leadership framework called 4Cs. Using this approach can set you up for success in leading fully remote teams who work from anywhere.




Welcome to this interactive workshop which provides practical guidance and leadership recommendations and suits the following groups:

1. Techie ICs (Individual contributors like developers, OPS, architects, and computer engineers) who are keen to step up to a management role.


2. The managers who struggle with running remote teams in this new era and want to be more effective leaders

You will leave this workshop having developed the leadership skills you need and picked tools in the 4Cs framework to manage technical engineering teams. It also helps you make a determined decision on your next career path if you are hesitant.



Here are a few of the topics covered in this workshop to develop leadership skills:


- How to be a great connector to build psychological safety in the team?
- What tools and methodologies do you need to be a great conductor to contribute to the team’s success?
- What does it take to be a productive compass?
- How to be an effective coach helping with growth and performance improvement, providing feedback and making effective and constructive conversations yet difficult?

Each topic will be thoroughly covered using examples and followed by exercises that allow you to reflect and fully absorb.
