April 6, 2015 at 12:16DevCon 2015: Announcement of Speakers - Community Representatives
Dear friends! We are pleased to present you the results of the selection of speakers based on applications that have been accepted for several months from the developer community to speak at the DevCon 2015 conference .
For several months we received dozens of applications from developers not only in Russia. but also other countries that have shown great interest in participating in our conference. Below you will find a list of speakers and their proposed reports, which were selected by the organizing committee of the conference (specific topics of reports with speakers will still be negotiated). In the selection, we were guided not only by the proposed topics, experience and fame of the speaker, but also took into account the voting results on the DevCon website.
Monitoring an ASP.NET application based on the Application Insights service
After launching the application in production, in most cases we send it free floating and do not know anything about its operation. The Application Insights service is designed to fill this gap and gain comprehensive knowledge about how your application works and what efforts we need to make to make it better.
ASP.NET vNext Application Configuration: Rethinking and New Concepts
The application configuration model in the new version of ASP.NET has undergone significant changes. In this report, we will see what exactly developers can expect from a new configuration system and how to survive current projects in the new reality.
IBeacon technology in payment solutions. Cross-platform solution using Azure and Xamarin (iOS, GoogleAndroid, WinPhone)
The payment solution is a quick purchase service using iBeacon technology. This is a platform useful for offline stores and customers - stores can put their iBeacon tags, and the platform will tell about the product and offer to buy it when the buyer passes by. A user with the application installed will receive a Push notification with product information and a discount on it. When you switch to the application, a product card will open with the option to pay by credit card. The goal is a one-click purchase. The report will be based on a demonstration of iBeacon in conjunction with iOS, GoogleAndroid, WinPhone. The program code will be written using Xamarin. The topic of integration with Azure and payment services (on the example of Yandex.Money) will be touched
Quick Developer's Guide to Promotion and Monetization of Windows Phone Applications
Many developers are more than capable of creating high-quality mobile applications, but unfortunately the quality of the idea and execution is often not enough to achieve success in the Store. In this report, we will look at the methods, techniques and tricks used by leading independent publishers to promote and monetize mobile applications.
SQL Server 2014 In-Memory OLTP Architecture and Internal Design
Undoubtedly, In-Memory OLTP technology is one of the key subsystems in SQL Server 2014. Many people wonder why this innovation provides such a significant increase in performance. The report will give a detailed description of the internal architecture and In-Memory OLTP device, and it will be useful to developers for a deeper understanding of the technology.
Application Development Considerations Using SQL Server 2014 In-Memory OLTP
Undoubtedly, the In-Memory OLTP technology is one of the key innovations in SQL Server 2014. This report will give a detailed description of this technology, its application scenarios and what must be taken into account in order to maximize the performance of your applications.
The whole truth about DML operations
Much attention is paid to optimizing SELECT queries, but at the same time, INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE operations are rarely affected. The report will examine in detail how SQL Server performs these actions, what difficulties can arise, and how to make them run as efficiently as possible.
Performance issues, reporting from the battlefield
The report will use real-life examples to examine what query performance problems in SQL Server you may encounter, as well as possible solutions to these problems.
Statistical analysis of processes
When developing software using flexible methodologies, many refuse metrics or draw incorrect conclusions based on them. How to choose what to measure and how to process the results? By collecting all the information about the project in TFS, you can not only accumulate it, but also analyze it in real time. In the report I will tell you what the Shekhart control cards are and how they can be applied to the metrics used in the development process.
Developing Web Applications with TypeScript
Today it’s hard to imagine developing web applications without using JavaScript. But JavaScript is frustrating for developers who write in C # or another typed language, and it’s justified. TypeScript language allows you to write code in JavaScript, while having typing and bypassing the pitfalls of the language. Come to the report and learn how to save a lot of time and nerves when developing web applications.
PowerBI - New Cloud Analysis Features
PowerBI is a new cloud analysis and visualization service. A recent update has opened up many service usage scenarios that will be in demand by both companies and web application developers. In the report, you will learn what features have appeared in PowerBI and how to apply them in your work.
Experimenting with sites in the cloud using Azure Website Testing in Production
When working with a large website, it’s important to understand that any change affects millions of people. How to make the right decision? To do this, A / B testing is carried out to understand how the new product will affect productivity and profit. Now, with the latest Microsoft Azure tools, experimenting is now easier than ever. In the report I will tell you what Websites Testing in Production is and how it can help your business.
