See all- Validating Java with Policy as Code (PaC)Ippon Technologies, Richmond, VA
Jimmy Ray has been writing and speaking for over 25 years. For the past several years he has focused on providing security, compliance, and governance solutions with Policy as Code (PaC) in the areas of cloud computing, containerization, and software supply chain. Jimmy is recognized as a subject matter expert in PaC and software supply chain security.
This talk will introduce PaC, and how it is used to validate Java code and Java project artifacts. Jimmy will discuss solutions used to parse Java project artifacts (including code), and then use PaC solutions to validate the artifacts. Using PaC with Java projects extends the reach of automated Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) for Java projects, beyond the out-of-the-box features of your typical Open Source Software (OSS) and Commercial off the shelf (COTS) solutions.
- GraphQL for Java DevelopersNeeds location
REST is all about endpoints that perform specific queries or operations. This works fine, but the client is limited by which queries have been exposed. What if the back-end exposed the data, but the client could decide which subset of data it needed, or how to interact with that data? That’s the promise of GraphQL — simplify the back-end, give the client more power, and make it easier to evolve APIs. In this talk, we’ll explain what GraphQL is, how it works, and look at a JavaScript client and a Java back-end.
