Expert-led talks featuring four Angular Core Team speakers from Google: Alex Rickabaugh, Miles Malerba, Pawel Kozlowski, Doug Parker.

Join Amanda Cavallaro for a workshop to learn more about fraudulent attacks and ways to mitigate them. We will begin by discussing the types of fraud and how the 5G Network APIs can help us combat them.

The entire workshop has tools for you to learn it in different ways: step-by-step tutorials, videos, learning from participating, and asking questions. We will also have some networking and refreshments.

You can learn how to improve your multifactor authentication using our Vonage SIM Swap and Verify APIs. We also use Firebase Services to store our functions with Cloud Functions, data in the Cloud Firestore database, and our web app using Firebase hosting.

Agenda

6:00 PM: Arrivals and Check In

6:30 PM: Welcome / Community Update

6:45 PM: Natalie Godec - But can you really run your app on 2 clouds at the same time?

We've all heard about this concept - you should run your app in more than one zone, more than one region, more than one... cloud? But how can this be done, without a major re-architecture of every component of every system? Let me take you through a real world implementation, where the 2 clouds were AWS and GCP, and the app - a major platform that has to deal with images. We'll look into the infra, networking and DNS setup, how to configure data availability and consistency, and what happened when we actually switched dual run in production. Whether you need multi-cloud for resilience, for serving customers with different requirements, or you just want to see who's mad enough to implement this - this talk is for you.

7:15 PM: Alessandro De Maria - Code & Reload: A Call of Duty "Zombie mode" inspired approach to Technical Debt in Startups

In this talk, we'll explore the parallels between surviving Call of Duty's Zombie mode and managing technical debt in startups. Just as players face increasingly difficult zombie waves with brief moments to regroup, startups experience intense development sprints that accumulate technical debt, followed by critical recovery periods. Learn practical strategies for recognizing when to sprint and when to strengthen your codebase foundations, how to prioritize technical debt paydown during "breather" phases, and why ignoring these cycles leads to inevitable project death. Whether you're a developer, tech lead, or founder, you'll walk away with actionable frameworks to survive your startup's technical zombie apocalypse

Agenda

6:00 PM: Arrivals and Check In

6:30 PM: Welcome / Community Update

6:45 PM: Natalie Godec - Balancing tight security with fluid devex, powered by GKE

The most secure server is one that is disconnected from the Internet and unplugged. And the most convenient environment for devs is where they have admin access to production and the freedom do what they want. How do you marry the two? Let's look at a real-world scenario where we built a cloud-native fintech platform on GKE. The vision? A robust, flexible, and secure foundation that supports SOC2-compliant deployments and empowers developers to be as productive as possible, contrary to the typical for the financial sector blown-out processes and approval chases. This solution is powered by Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) and the cloud's niftiest security tools from the Secure Supply Chain toolkit.

7:15 PM: Jai Campbell - Site Reliability Engineering: Adapting to the AI Revolution

Large language models (LLMs) capabilities and adoption are increasing at an exponential rate. With this change in technology, there is an increased emphasis on ensuring the reliability of applications and services that utilise AI including the platforms they are deployed on.

In this presentation I will discuss the transformative impact of AI across various industries and highlight the crucial role of Site Reliability Engineers (SREs) in managing and maintaining AI-driven systems. I will provide an overview of AI's integration into technology, discussing the benefits and challenges, such as improved decision-making, automation, data privacy, and ethical considerations. I will define the SRE role, contrasting traditional responsibilities with those in AI-enhanced environments, including, MLOPS, AI model deployment, advanced monitoring, and incident response.

We will have an indepth look at essential tools and technologies for SREs in the early stages of the AI era, Gemini for Google Cloud, AI integration with CI/CD pipelines, AI powered code suggestions and code reviews, root cause analysis, advanced monitoring and alerting. I will end the session taking a look at future trends, emphasising the synergy between AI and SREs, the importance of continuous skill development, and the ethical responsibilities of SREs in ensuring reliable and responsible AI systems.
