***Information about the talks:***
**Title:** **Automating away bugs with Error Prone in practice" by Rick Ossendrijver**
Error Prone is a powerful tool for detecting and preventing bugs and anti-patterns in Java codebases. As a compiler plugin, it is capable of automatically suggesting and applying fixes at scale. For years, Picnic has leveraged the capabilities of Error Prone to streamline our development process through large-scale automated refactorings across our entire Java codebase. This approach not only resolves bugs once and for all, but also leads to a more consistent and high-quality codebase. In this talk, we will provide a comprehensive demonstration of Error Prone's capabilities, as well as offer practical guidance on how to set up the tool for your own development team. Additionally, we will share our own experiences and learnings from Picnic's journey of using Error Prone, including the process of creating and enabling our own set of custom rules from our open-sourced Error Prone Support repository.
*About Rick Ossendrijver*
Rick Ossendrijver is a software engineer in Picnic's Java Platform team. He is a committer and enthusiast for the Error Prone project. His background includes a thesis and two research papers on extending Error Prone to automate library migrations. Rick is also a contributor to Picnic's open-source repository Error Prone Support.
**Title:** **“A Day in the Life of an Architect Designing an EDA Landscape" by Hari Rangarajan**
Event-driven architecture (EDA) is getting increasingly prominent in our lives, technology solutions, and underlying enterprise IT design processes. There are many introductions to EDA and its benefits out there, but most are theoretical descriptions that lack practical examples, which makes it difficult to fully understand and utilize it. In this session, Solace Developer Advocate Hari Rangarajan walks through the process by which an enterprise architect might design an event-driven system. Participants will gain a new appreciation of EDA, and inspiration for how to apply it in their day-to-day activities to achieve big results.
*About Hari Rangarajan*
Hari is a dynamic, creative, and innovative professional who is always looking for a challenge and understand different software development processes from both technical and business perspectives.
His main background is Software Engineering in Java, Microservices and EDA. DevOps and Agile is more about who he is and how he does things and cooperates with people.
Hari’s current focus is on evaluating emerging technologies, practices, frameworks and identifying how they can best serve the long-term interests and ambitions of my clients.
He is passionate about how programming can be a key participant in sustainability discussions, identifying points for consideration while making technology choices from a green perspective.
