How to Simplify SOA Development Using Connext DDS, Part 3 of 6
By:
Type: Talk
The design and development of distributed systems is challenging. Currently there are multiple ongoing efforts that aim to simplify development by providing reusable patterns and architectures that can be applied across different industries. RTI ConnextⓇ DDS provides a holistic solution for distributing data that follows, at its core, a data-centric publish-subscribe communication model. This communication pattern is extremely flexible and is often considered a super pattern upon which many well-known patterns, such as request-reply and queuing, can be constructed. In this Tech Talk, we explain how to implement Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) using standard Data Distribution ServiceTM (DDS) features. In particular, we will demonstrate how to leverage mechanisms defined in the OMG® Remote Procedure Calls (RPC) Over DDS specification to create DDS Services, and will show how to leverage RTI Connext Request-Reply APIs to use them. As part of the presentation, we'll take a sneak peek into some of the upcoming features in Connext DDS that aim to simplify the development of SOA and perform a live demonstration that showcases a few examples of these applications. Attend this Tech Talk to learn: - Specific Connext DDS features that can simplify the implementation of SOA - How Connext DDS helps developers leverage the OMG’s RPC Over DDS specification to create DDS Services - How to establish flexible communication patterns such as request-reply and queuing

Type: Video
Financial institutions face many major challenges across all IT services as their cloud journey progresses. Cyber security governance, risk management, compliance, third-party vendor management, and assurance and accountability are just a few that scratch the surface. An essential component to solving these challenges is a standardized and mature security control framework. CSA’s Cloud Control Matrix (CCM) has been adopted by several financial institutions and is recognized and appreciated by regulators. In 2022, CSA established a partnership with the Cyber Risk Institute (CRI), that lead to the creation of the “Cloud Profile,” an extension of the CCM and of the CRI Profile. The goal of this collaboration is to support financial institutions in navigating the complexity of cloud security compliance and assurance. CSA is also working alongside organizations such as the European Cloud User Council, the European and UK Cloud Pooled Audits groups, and IBM Financial Services, to further extend the CCM, the Financial Service Addendum, and ultimately improve its relevance for Financial Institutions and their Regulators.

Women in Leadership: Set 2024 Goals with Olympic Medalist Shannon Miller

January often invites us to hit reset, and to set resolutions or goals for the year ahead to level up our personal and professional lives. Though, any month can serve as that reset button, and in this sphere, the terms “resolution” and “goal” are often used interchangeably.
