Title: Innovative ideas for Integration Solutions through JBoss ESB

Target Audience:

Java/SOA/Integration Developers & Architects

Abstract:

JBoss ESB is not only one of the best opensource ESBs in the market nowadays, but is also a very easy solution to learn, allowing you to create highly scalable SOA Architectures. Because its capabilities are very easy to extend, JBoss ESB fits well as a suitable platform either for a Central Solution for Systems Integration, or as a Foundationfor ISVs, creating very sophisticated products for the Systems Integration niche.

In this presentation, we will show how to create new Listeners/Gateways for JBoss ESB, showing a practical example

involving GoogleDocs, OpenFire/XMPP/GoogleTalk Protocol and a special way for integrating with Apache Camel. This presentation will be very "demo-like", counting on only a few slides and having a lot of live demos and source code.

Title: JBoss Marshalling - A Better Serialization Framework

Target Audience: Any Java developer who uses Java Serialization

Abstract:

Java object serialization is a notion that is losing popularity in the face of myriad portable object serialization formats and libraries.  However, Serializable and Externalizable objects are still at the core of many applications and frameworks today.  These applications are stuck with classic Java serialization, which does not scale well in many usage patterns, and has many API limitations.

JBoss Marshalling is a zero-dependency framework which allows pluggable marshalling implementations (multiple protocols), flexible configuration (performance tuning, pluggable object and class resolvers and tables, and pluggable externalizers), as well as a powerful cloning API, and is designed for scalability whether you're dealing with small or large messages.  This talk will illustrate the framework API and usage examples.

Title:

PicketLink AuthZ - A Rule-based Authorization Framework

Target Audience:

Java Application Developers/Java Container Developers

Abstract:

PicketLink AuthZ is a Rule based Authorization Framework. It provides the ability to create complex security rules taking into account valuable contextual data. Security “Facts” can include Identity, Roles/Groups, Arbitrary Http Headers, Java Method parameters, Java Fields, Date/Time information, IP Address information, etc. There is no restriction on what information can be used for making an access decision. This is a breakway from frameworks that are designed primarily around the concept of "user roles and permissions".

Technical Features:

• Built on top of a standards compliant XACML rule engine (implementation: JBossXACML)

• Externalizes Security (Logic + Data) from the core application

• A developer friendly component API (insulation from low-level XACML details)

• A common/central SecurityManager for all your applications, without having to write/maintain a separate Security subsystem for each functional module

• Dynamic Policy Provisioning (no need to restart application/cluster)

Next Generation Web Applications using GWT and JBoss

Target Audience:

Web Developers, Enterprise Application Architects

Abstract:

The presentation will cover an overview of where web applications are going, how we think it applies to the world at large, and how it applies to JBoss. The first part of the presentation will be a high-level discussion about thinking of the web browser as a platform. As opposed to a simple HTML renderer.

Title:

CDI and Weld for Spring Users

Target Audience:

Java Developers/Architects who are using Spring and JBoss

Abstract:

A significant portion of the JBoss user community uses Spring for their applications. With the advent of Java EE 6 and Spring 3, how can they benefit from Java EE 6's standardization of development concerns such as dependency injection and contextual instance management, without investing in a general overhaul of their existing code?
The presentation is highly-technical, and developer oriented, addressing concerns such as:
- why would I want to use CDI if I'm using Spring, after all?
- how to use Spring in such a way that it can easily interoperate with CDI?
- how to reuse existing Spring code when building a CDI application?
- are there any differences of interpretation?
- what happens underneath, from a technical standpoint - what to pay attention to?
- what is Seam 3 offering in terms of interoperating with Spring?
The last part will include a demonstration of using the JBoss Tools CDI support as well as the Spring IDE  to create a Spring/CDI mixed application.

Speaker/s:

Marius Bogoevici is a Senior Software Engineer with Red Hat, leading the JBoss AS/Spring integration efforts. He is currently the lead for Snowdrop, a utility package that contains JBoss-specific extensions to the Spring Framework, and for Seam 3's Spring interoperability module. He makes regular contributions to Weld, the JSR-299 Reference Implementation.

Beautiful Java EE - Use PrettyFaces to Harness SEO, Improve User Experience, and Ease  Development

Target  Audience:

Web Application Developers, Marketing Professionals and Entrepreneurs

Abstract:

Java EE is already the  perfect solution for complex business/enterprise systems, and JSF 2.x is  the perfect chance to reach out to the consumer and small business  market. JSF is easier to use than it's ever been before, but small  businesses have different needs than larger companies and corporations.  PrettyFaces is for all projects, small and large; this session will  present why "pretty, bookmark-able URLs" are important for client-facing  applications, addressing SEO optimization, and creating clean,  consistent, intuitive client interactions on the web.

How PrettyFaces works: The talk introduces you to URL  rewriting, storing contextual information, and managing page  configuration data with address and query parameters (resource  identification, table pagination, data filters.) PrettyFaces'  centralized approach uses URLs to retain the state of pages, meaning  less information must be stored in session or application scoped beans.

Rethinking navigation: Navigation from the eye of the client. JSF  supports page flows well, but managing simple transitions from one page  to another can be complex. Examples of PrettyFaces integrated  navigation, hyper-linking via outbound URL-rewriting, and Components will show how  developers gain increased control over all aspects of navigation out of  the box, and how this is accomplished without extra configuration.

SEO: You will be presented with concepts of how to  improve client experience, confidence, and trust through creating a  consistent look and feel - the importance the browser URL plays an in  establishing and trust through all client interactions.

Title: TestedBy: Tracking your test cases' metadata using annotations and Javassist

Target  Audience: All Java developers

Abstract:

Javassist allows a developer to instrument classes at load time and thereby
keep track of method invocations when running JUnit test cases.

The purpose of the TestedBy project (http://code.google.com/p/testedby/) is to
collect metadata that represents the links between the class under test and the
test classes.

The metadata will generated based on annotations on the classes under test or
instrumentation of test classes during test execution.

This metadata can then be used for various tasks like running only tests stressing a particular set of classes
(f.ex. classes changed since last compilation) or give a graphical representation to provide a better understanding of the
entire test suite.

TestedBy will change your view of TDD: You should focus on the class being tested; you will consider the test as
the well-defined contract of your classes or interfaces that defines your API.

I'll discuss how TestedBy does all this magically when you run the tool using Apache Maven or Apache Ant.

Title: Wise: Invoke Your Services Easily

Target  Audience: Application developers using web services in an application server environment
or an enterprise service bus (ESB) environment.

Abstract:

The Wise project is building a Java framework to invoke web services easily,
usable as base for a zero-code web service invocation application.

Wise could be a solution when you need a total and effective decoupling of the client
and server using WS to interoperate. It’s matter of fact that wsconsume
tools is great for Java developers, generating needed stub classes, but it
introduces a new (or renewed :)) level of coupling very similar to CORBA
IDL. Generating a web service stub you are in fact coupling the client
and the server.

• Wise core:
    • Support of WS-*
    • Integration in ESB
    • One line WS calls
    • API to explore the dynamic generated stubs

• Wise-wegui:
    • A tool to help business analysts during validation tests of WS
    • The legacy web GUI and how it has been used in my company during the last year
    • The upcoming GWT gui

• LMS: Logging Meta Service
• The Wise Code donation: why have I donated my pet project to JBoss.org
