This tutorial will teach how to automate infrastructures using Chef, including real examples of application deployment and system integration of infrastructure components such as load balancers, application servers and monitoring systems.
Trotter Cashion
(Mashion, LLC)
Having trouble ensuring that all your machines are provisioned properly? Find your system of bash scripts difficult to maintain? Come meet Chef and see how easy automated system provisioning can be. We'll cover the benefits of using a tool like Chef, how easy it is to get started with Chef Solo, and how you can scale up to hundreds and even thousands of boxes without breaking a sweat.

(Puppet Labs)
Efficient IT infrastructures must hold to several basic properties. Changes must be tracked. Automation must be maximized. Compliance against corporate standards must be preserved. Especially in days of limited resources, how can software help solve this problem? In this presentation, we'll show how Puppet can automate, enforce, and ensure sanity in the modern datacenter.

Presentation:
Evolution of Web Security_ Fundamentals, Emerging Trends, and Ideas for the Future Presentation
[PDF]
This tutorial explores new concepts in web security. After a solid grounding in well-known exploits, I'll demonstrate how traditional exploits are being combined together and with other technologies to launch sophisticated attacks that penetrate firewalls, target users, and spread like worms. I'll then discuss some ideas for the future to help you provide a better, more secure user experience.

Fancy is a dynamic, class based, pure object-oriented programming language heavily inspired by Smalltalk, Ruby and Erlang. In development since the beginning of this year, not all features have yet been implemented but the overall progress is coming along nicely.

(ThoughtWorks)
JRuby allows you to truly explore the potential of the Java virtual machine. This tutorial shows you concrete examples of why JRuby is the most powerful yet practical language for the JVM. It covers syntax, conventions, meta-programming, and other unique features of this elegant yet robust language.
Vineet Tyagi
(Impetus )
Would you like to know how to build an application server from scratch? This talk would provide an insight to the thought process and the key decisions made while building WebROaR from grounds up using C & Ruby.

(Engine Yard, Inc)
Mirah (formerly Duby), is a Ruby-inspired, statically-typed, lightweight,
platform-agnostic language with backends for JVM bytecode, Java
source, and more platforms planned. It borrows features from several
static and dynamic languages, but with a twist: no runtime dependency
on any additional library; everything is done at compile time.

No Callbacks, No Threads_ Async _ Cooperative Web Servers with Ruby 1_9 Presentation 1
[PPTX],

No threads, no callbacks, just pure IO scheduling with Ruby 1.9, Fibers, and Eventmachine. All the nice things we love about writing synchronous code, but completely asynchronous under the covers – the best of both worlds. A hands on look at the architecture, mechanics, and involved libraries towards creating the next generation Ruby web-servers.
Brian Ford
(Engine Yard)
In the past several years, PEGs (parsing expression grammars) have renewed interest in top-down parsing. Pegarus is an implementation on Rubinius of the LPEG pattern-matching tool for Lua. Poison is an implementation of _why's Potion programming language on the Rubinius VM using Pegarus.

Ruby apps can now be deployed to Google App Engine thanks to JRuby. New app instances spin-up on demand so there is no need to provision hardware but each new JRuby runtime can take several seconds. Mirah (formerly Duby) is a new language with Ruby-inspired syntax that compiles directly to Java bytecode. Duby is compelling for App Engine development because new instances can spin-up in a second.

Scratching the 40-Year Itch of Inheritance with Smalltalk-style Traits Presentation
[PDF]
For over 40 years, developers have argued over the proper use of inheritance. That a four decade-old code smell. We'll look at the debate, explain what the problem actually is and show how we solved it at the BBC using Smalltalk-style traits.

For this ropes course, members of the Envy Labs team will march you through the core concepts of Rails 3 while taking you through the development of a new Rails application. At the end of this course you will come away with a better understanding what’s new in Rails 3, and equally as important, what has changed since Rails 2.
Trotter Cashion
(Mashion, LLC)
Your QA cycle is broken and unit tests aren't enough to fix it. QA takes too long, is too error prone, and never covers as much as we need. To really do QA right, you need automated integration and acceptance testing tools like Cucumber. In this talk, we'll discuss why automated integration testing is a necessity, how you can do it, and why your coworkers and boss will thank you for it.
Michael Bleigh
(Intridea)
Rails has reached a degree of popularity among web developers, so there's a lot of Rails 2.x series code floating around. Of course, once Rails 3 is released, it's not like these apps will explode, ceasing to function in an any meaningful way, but it would be nice to get all the new hotness that this release brings.
