Four F.U.D.s of the Cloud
Roll back

nil |

Cloud computing has quickly evolved from marketing terminology and buzzwords to a valuable and often vital way to conduct business and deliver services. With the rapid rate of cloud adoption and the constant change in the industry, it can be confusing to sift through all the information and get to the facts. Join us as we discuss “The Top Four FUDs of the Cloud” in a fun pub environment.
The Four FUD Topics and Presenters Are:
Differences in Service Delivery (SaaS and on Premise Solutions) --Jorge Zelaya, VP of Client Services at EasyStreet will discuss integrated vs. customized, the importance of renewals (B4B vs. B2B) and the focus on strategy and business outcomes.
Security and Compliance -- Adam Shnider, Managing Director, NW Coalfire Systems will discuss SSAE16, HIPPA, PCI, etc. and what customers expect from cloud vendors from a compliance support standpoint, customer requirements, and the minimum requirements everyone should have, and how not all cloud providers and services are created equal.
Financial Impacts -- Chris Wheaton, VP of Services at Jive Software will discuss services revenue models and how they differ from being subscription based vs. traditional license and maintenance. He will also discuss how to generate incremental services revenue when there is no longer a defined maintenance revenue stream.
Success Stories – Adam Lynch, Founder and Director of Product Development, Hubbub Health will share success stories despite all the F.U.D!
The speakers will then host a now classic Reddit-style AMA (Ask Me Anything) session after their presentations, giving attendees a chance to ask questions and add to what’s sure to be a lively discussion.
This event will be moderated by Claire Hernandez, VP of Client Services, HealthSparq.
Who Should Attend
•Decision makers searching to find how cloud fits with their business
•Those managing or subscribing to existing cloud based services

When: Wednesday, March 12th
Time: 5:30 PM – 8:30 PM

### What's new in WildFly 8?
WildFly 8 (née JBoss Application Server) is Red Hat's open source Java EE 7 compliant application server. It contains robust implementations of WebSocket, Batch, JSON, Concurrency, JMS2, JAX-RS 2, CDI 1.1, and all Java EE 7 technologies. Undertow is the new cutting-edge web server in WildFly 8 and is designed for maximum throughput and scalability, including environments with over a million connections. The number of ports is reduced used by multiplexing protocols over HTTP using HTTP Upgrade.
Role Based Access Control support organizations with separated management responsibilities and restrictions. Roles represent different sets of permissions such as runtime operation execution, configuration areas that can read or written, and the ability to audit changes and manage users. In addition a new restricted audit log can be enabled including the ability to offload to a secure syslog server.
WildFly also provides a "core" distribution that is ideal for framework authors that want to build their own application runtime using the powerful WildFly 8 architecture.
NetBeans, IntelliJ, and Eclipse allow WildFly to be used for development, deployment, and debugging.
### Speaker
James Perkins is a software developer at Red Hat working remotely from Portland, OR. He works on the WildFly Application Server, JBoss EAP, logging frameworks and JBeret (a JSR 352 batch implementation). |

You will hear from both the industry perspective and the media/marketing perspective on how companies are and should be using these new social media tools foster innovation on company products, services, distribution and customer service. They will discuss collaboration, creating community environments, data mining, facilitating customer feedback and how to integrate this information and collaboration into the company’s product/service development culture. Learn to balance the opportunity promised by Social Media with the real need to protect your Intellectual Property.
Join us for this informative breakfast meeting and learn how your organization can make the most of this powerful tool.
Speakers:
- Kent Lewis, President, Anvil Media, Inc.

Brandon Philips will talk about etcd, a highly-available key/value store, and how it was built with and can be used from Go. He'll cover the basics of running an etcd cluster and the underlying consensus algorithm called raft.
He'll also get into a practical use case for service discovery and shared configuration and wrap with how you can use etcd from your Go programs using go-etcd.
**About the Speaker**
Brandon Philips is helping to build modern Linux server infrastructure at CoreOS. Because of this, he was recently disowned by one of his Linux kernel friends for being "one of those weirdos on the other side of the syscalls".
**About the Meetup**
Lytics is happy to host as well as provide pizza and beer!

## An exploration of the purpose of rules ... ##
We're iconoclasts who reject arbitrary constraints yet long for understandable, predictable, changeable applications. We want code that follows rules yet we refuse to let rules to get in our way. We're deeply attached to the little rules that help get things done (No trailing whitespace! Indent using two spaces!) and despise the big, complicated ones that impose one-size-fits-all straitjackets on otherwise sane programming problems.
This talk proposes 5 'little' rules for writing object-oriented code. These rules are determinedly simple yet produce code that experts love and novices can be trusted to change; they fill the space between anarchy and order with practical, common sense. The rules guide without impeding, help without hindering and constrain without binding, and let you create applications that are easy to change and fun to work their whole life long.
*This is the 4th event in a series of free monthly FutureTalks from disruptive Developers, innovative Technologists and world-changing Creatives. Doors open at 5:30p for food, drinks and networking. The presentation will begin right at 6p.*
Please RSVP via Eventbrite [HERE](http://bit.ly/1dlKC91)
*Sandi Metz is a programmer. In the past 30+ years she has written innumerable applications, many of which are still running today. Dealing with long lived applications has left her deeply biased towards practical solutions that produce working software that is easy to change. She is also someone who explains things, but has difficulty speaking without drawing on the whiteboard and feels inarticulate unless the conversation includes at least three colors. She believes in simplicity; simple code, and straightforward explanations, and strives for it in her code and in her writing.*

Flux is an all volunteer run space for making stuff.
We recognize that the technology world is often a binder full of testosterone, and are working to make technology inclusive for people of all backgrounds and genders. We do our best to maintain an explicitly intersectional feminist space that welcomes members and guests of all genders, racial and cultural backgrounds, and levels of ability. |

TiE Panel: Founders' Funding Stories
Roll back
| description |
We often see headlines like these:
* "Verizon Investments Leads Funding Round in MobileRQ"
* "OpenSesame Lands $8M"
* "OnTheGo Raises 700K Seed Funding from Foundry Group's AngelList Syndicate"
If you are an entrepreneur pitching at PitchFests and to groups of investors, an outcome like that can often seem like a pipe dream. You might think it's just a question of luck, or that you just have to have a lot of passion for your idea; but it takes the right combination of factors to make such deals happen.
The basic premise is obvious: investors want a return on their investment. But how do you get introduced to the right investor for your company? What is going to convince them that they will get a return on the investment? How do you negotiate the deal?
One great way to get answers to some of these questions is by hearing the stories of founders who have received funding in the last 6 months.
Join us for a panel discussion on closing a round of funding with the founders of the very same companies that featured in the headlines above.
Our panelists are Tyler McKinley (CEO/Founder of MobileRQ, Josh Blank (SVP/Founder of OpenSesame), and Ryan Fink (CEO/Founder of OnTheGo Platforms).
The discussion will be moderated by Monica Enand (Founder/CEO of Zapproved, TiE Charter Member).

PDXScala Monthly Meeting
Roll back
| description |
Come join other Scala fans, whether you're a seasoned oldtimer or complete beginner. We'll have open discussions and a variety of presentations and examples. If you have topics you're interested in hearing more about or something you'd like to give a presentation on, please let us know! Also, feel free to bring code you'd like to show off or get input on from the rest of the group!
This month we’re stoked to have [Rob Norris](https://github.com/tpolecat) present some fancy stuff about scalacheck or zippers or something. Sure to be rad and/or mind-blowing, as per usual.
We can try collaboratively taking notes on talk(s) on [etherpad](http://etherpad.stumptownsyndicate.org/p/02-2014-pdxscala).
As we've been doing for some months now, the first hour of tonight's meeting will be oriented towards people who are new to Scala. If you have questions you'd like to ask about general usage, specific libraries, or overall understanding of the ecosystem, we'll be here to help you find your way. For everyone else, we'll have plenty of extra time tonight for any other discussions and topics, so if you have something you'd like to talk about or code you'd like to show, come prepared! We'll have pizza here at 6, so come early if you're hungry.
We look forward to see you all there! |

Based off an idea from the pdxruby mailing list, this event is for any ruby programmers who want to informally co-work from a cafe. I'll be at Floyd's Coffee (http://workfrom.co/floyds-coffee-old-town), probably wearing a green hoodie and working on ruby.
If you'd like me to email you about each weekly co-working session, you can email me (Mike LaPeter) at my first initial + last name at gmail. |

World Information Architecture Day 2014
Roll back
| description |
Join us for a day of learning about Information Architecture! You'd be surprised just how much all of our disciplines are connected.
From UX to Architecture to Photography to Creative Writing, the design of information requires processes to create the ideal outcome for something that did not exist before.
Meet fellow practitioners, get a better understanding of what others do and how you can use that knowledge to make what you do even better.
Our lineup starts at 9a and ending at 6p, with one hour break for lunch. Come to one, a few or all! Your ticket price is good for the day, so you can come and go as you please.
9: Kate Ertmann-Owner and Animation Process Expert at Animation Dynamics
10: Craig Peters-CEO, Awasu Design San Francisco
11: Josh Romberg-Photographer and Visual Designer
LUNCH
1p: Corey Pressman-Owner and Chief Strategist at Exprima Media
2p: Crystal Rutland-CEO and Director of Research and Strategy at Empirical UX
3p: Juliana Lukasik-TV Commercial Director and Owner, @Large Films
4p: Tyler Phillippi-CMO & Co-Founder at OnTheGo Platforms
5p: Michael Adcock-Technical Support Analyst at ProQuest
_____
In between talks, there are some great opportunities for networking, asking questions and uploading pix of the event. We couldn't be more thrilled to bring this content to you!

<p>We all seem to have our little niches in this group, so how about a show-and-tell? Bring in your wearable devices, be it Google Glass, Nike Fuelband, or a hearing aid. There are so many <a href="http://medium.com/p/6076b32cdf71">categories</a> of wearable computers, it'd be useful to see them all. If you've written some software for these devices, show that off too. So much the better.</p> <p>Join us even if you aren't wearing, it's a good time to play around.</p> |
