[Virtual] PRO WORKSHOP(API): Mock-first API Prototyping
Tuesday November 12, 2024 9:00am - 9:50am PST
Dan Perovich, WireMock, Solution Engineering and Customer Success Lead

Internal APIs are ubiquitous in modern software development. However, the handover between the team building the API and the team that’s meant to consume it tends to break down - resulting in late feedback and considerable delays in shipping features and products.

In this workshop, we'll use WireMock Cloud's API prototyping feature, which allows developers to collaborate and iterate better from the initial design discussions through integration testing. We refer to this approach as mock-first API prototyping.

[Virtual] OPEN WORKSHOP (API): API CTF: Learn the FUNdamentals of API Security
Tuesday November 12, 2024 9:00am - 9:50am PST
David Warburton, F5, Director, F5 Labs
Malcolm Heath, F5, Senior Threat Researcher


Join us for an exciting and educational Capture the Flag (CTF) event focused on API security, designed specifically for beginners! No prior experience with API security is required, making this an inclusive and welcoming environment for anyone eager to learn how APIs are commonly attacked — by doing the attacking themselves!
Participants will engage with a series of hands-on challenges aimed at teaching fundamental concepts of API security. You'll explore vulnerabilities often found in APIs and learn how attackers exploit these weak spots to compromise systems. Each challenge is designed to introduce you to core techniques used in the field of cybersecurity, guiding you step by step toward understanding how APIs work and where their security gaps lie.
This event is all about learning by doing, but don’t worry — you won’t be left to figure things out entirely on your own. While the focus is on self-discovery and problem-solving, the session will end with a detailed walk-through of all the challenges. So, even if you're unsure of how to solve a particular problem, you'll leave with valuable new skills and a deeper understanding of API security.
What to Expect:
  • A series of beginner-friendly CTF challenges that focus on API vulnerabilities.
  • No pressure, inclusive atmosphere where the goal is to learn, not compete.
  • Guidance on how to approach and solve common API security challenges.
  • A final walk-through session where the team demonstrates solutions for each challenge, so you'll understand the techniques used, even if you struggled to solve them on your own.
What to Bring:
  • Your own laptop. Most challenges can be solved using a standard web browser like Firefox or Chrome, but you’ll have an edge if you're able to run Python scripts or use tools like Postman, which can make testing APIs easier and more efficient.
While this event is geared toward beginners, having a basic understanding of HTTP requests and headers will be helpful but not essential. Don’t worry if you don’t have that background, as the walkthrough and explanations provided during the event will help bring you up to speed.
Whether you’re completely new to the world of API security or just looking to reinforce your understanding, this CTF game will be an engaging and fun way to dive into the subject. By the end of the session, you’ll leave with practical knowledge and the confidence to further explore API security on your own!

[Virtual] PRO WORKSHOP (CloudX): Your Serverless Streaming Data Pipeline in Python
Tuesday November 12, 2024 10:00am - 10:50am PST
Bobur Umurzokov, GlassFlow, Developer Advocate

We often hear stories from Kafka users about taking nine months to implement production-ready Kafka-based data pipelines. We see customers having 50 teams relying on a single Kafka cluster managed by one person. Data engineers cannot easily simulate a production environment without a complex initial setup. Or data scientists struggle with data integration, building an offline ML pipeline to experiment, reproduce models, and debug them locally. Let's explore how to skip the headache of creating computing clusters, managing partitions, shards, and workers' setup.

The talk demonstrates a different way of implementing a cost-efficient serverless streaming pipeline using pure Python. We will leverage technologies like KEDA (Kubernetes Event-Driven Autoscaling) with integrated NATS Jetstream for the distribution of real-time events and Fission serverless framework to run lambda-like functions on Kubernetes.

[Virtual Exclusive] PRO WORKSHOP (API): Learn to Maximize AI performance through Open-Source Computer Vision based Retail Solution
Tuesday November 12, 2024 11:00am - 11:50am PST
Neethu Elizabeth Simon, Intel, Senior Software Engineer
Antonio Martinez, Intel, Software Engineer
Brian McGinn, Intel, Software Solution Developer
 


Computer vision is revolutionizing various industries, and retail is no exception. While AI applications have many benefits, proof-of-concepts do not scale successfully into larger, implemented deployments. Retailers, independent software vendors (ISVs), and system integrators (SIs) require a good understanding of both hardware and software, maintaining AI models in production and having in-depth knowledge of costs involved in setting up and scaling these systems. Vision workloads are significantly larger, complex, undergo multiple stages of processing and therefore require systems to be architected, built, and deployed with several considerations. To make it easier for software developers to understand the optimizations and hardware capabilities, Automated Self-Checkout is developed- an open-source initiative for vision-enabled retail use cases, providing optimized code blocks, documentation, and performance benchmark data to enhance and accelerate developer’s product and project work.

This Open-Source project is a community developed project that provides the tools needed to launch and benchmark a computer vision-based workload on your local device.

In this hands-on workshop we will demonstrate how to utilize the automated-self-checkout solution to run Docker containers with open-source Intel OpenVINO toolkit and benchmark their performance on different hardware platforms. Through this interactive workshop, attendees will be able to setup and run the AI computer vision-based retail pipelines using this solution. Attendees will also gain knowledge on how to benchmark the workloads using this tool for obtaining maximum hardware performance.

How could we design an API for querying data across all kinds of sources? How could we describe complex queries that join data across them? This problem is tough enough when all the sources are, say, Postgres, but what about when we need to join data from Postgres to MongoDB? Or an arbitrary CSV file? Or even another API? How do we talk about data access and manipulation in a way that makes sense for all these possible backends?

In this talk, we'll discuss how we've been designing a solution to this problem. We'll talk about some of the challenges in keeping API design consistent across data sources, balancing simplicity and expressivity, and even making all of this performant behind the infinite number shapes that a GraphQL request can take.

[Virtual] PRO WORKSHOP (API): Using Vector Databases for Multimodal Search and Retrieval Augmented Generation
Tuesday November 12, 2024 1:00pm - 1:50pm PST
Zain Hasan, Together AI, Senior ML DevRel Engineer

Many real-world problems are inherently multimodal, from the communicative modalities humans use such as spoken language and gestures to the force, sensory, and visual sensors used in robotics. For machine learning models to address these problems and interact more naturally and wholistically with the world around them and ultimately be more general and powerful reasoning engines, we need them to understand data across all of its corresponding images, video, text, audio, and tactile representations.

In this talk, Zain Hasan will discuss how we can use open-source multimodal embedding models in conjunction with large generative multimodal models that can that can see, hear, read, and feel data(!), to perform cross-modal search(searching audio with images, videos with text etc.) and multimodal retrieval augmented generation (MM-RAG) at the billion-object scale with the help of open source vector databases. I will also demonstrate, with live code demos, how being able to perform this cross-modal retrieval in real-time can enables users to use LLMs that can reason over their enterprise multimodal data. This talk will revolve around how we can scale the usage of multimodal embedding and generative models in production.

[Virtual] PRO WORKSHOP (API): Catalyst APIs: Your Solution for Fragmentation, Code Sprawl and Vendor Lock-in
Tuesday November 12, 2024 1:00pm - 1:50pm PST
Fernando Rocha, Diagrid, Customer Success Engineer

Starting a new project can be daunting. Choosing a technology for messaging, storage, workflows (and others) is a big commitment that takes time for developers. An ever increasing number of libraries, frameworks, cloud services and infrastructure lead to code sprawl, refactoring, lock-in, and security vulnerabilities, forcing developers to become experts of everything and ship code that’s hard to maintain. Switching between technologies is a risky, incredibly complex, and costly process. The flexibility is there, but it has a big price.

Meet Catalyst!

Powered by Dapr (Distributed Application Runtime), the 12th largest Cloud Native Computing Foundation project, Catalyst provides developers with APIs that remain consistent while the underlying infrastructure can be swapped out with little to no code changes. For teams using multiple programming languages or running in multiple clouds, Catalyst provides a single API for interacting with the underlying infrastructure, drastically reducing the amount of code and maintenance you’re on the hook for. Not only that, these APIs already embed best practices on security and reliability. If that's not amazing enough, Catalyst runs as-a-service, so there’s nothing to install or manage!

Join us to learn how Catalyst can add infrastructure flexibility, zero trust security, and fault tolerance to your distributed solutions with no extra development time!

[Virtual] PRO WORKSHOP (API): AI Needs APIs: Dynamic Data Access for Next-Gen Experiences
Tuesday November 12, 2024 2:00pm - 2:50pm PST
Andrew Carlson, Apollo GraphQL, Principal Field Architect

Gartner predicts that by 2026, more than 30% of the increase in demand for APIs will come from artificial intelligence and tools using large language models. API sprawl is a hazardous form of technical debt. It has hard costs from hosting and scaling a fleet of APIs, real security risks and an increased operational burden from the sheer number of APIs that platform engineering teams need to manage. With GraphQL, any client, even an LLM, can request exactly the data they need without over or under-fetching. And with federated GraphQL, the data can come from any underlying API.

Learn popular use cases for implementing the graph in an AI-driven experience, how organizations can safely adopt AI on a spectrum from low to high trust, and why GraphQL is an ideal API access layer for AI.

[Virtual] PRO WORKSHOP (API): The Wild West…East, North and South: Design Patterns for Multi-Region Microservices
Tuesday November 12, 2024 2:00pm - 2:50pm PST
Amit Chauhan, Yugabyte, Principal Engineer

The infrastructure of major cloud providers and private data centers spans countries and continents. This makes it possible to build multi-region microservices that serve user requests with low latency from nearly anywhere, tolerate all sorts of possible outages, and comply with data regulatory requirements.

This hands-on session introduces you to design patterns for building scalable and fault-tolerant microservices that span distant locations. You'll learn the patterns by building a sample microservices. We'll start with a traditional single-region configuration and then switch to a multi-region setting. In the end, we'll have a working prototype of an microservices that handles user traffic with low latency in North America, Europe, and Australia.
