NewsTypemock CEO: Software Development Without Unit Testing is Reckless Pin
Thursday, May 16, 2013 11:17 AM by manny6
Tel-Aviv, May 16, 2013 – Typemock, (http://www.typemock.com/) the leading provider and pioneer of automated unit testing solutions held a corporate event to celebrate eight years since its founding. CEO Eli Lopian addressed the gathering and laid out his thoughts on the necessity of unit testing in software development: “Any software programmer that does not do unit testing is a reckless coder”, declared Lopian. “Unit testing is an essential part of any software development process. It allows you to deliver working code, with fewer bugs, faster. Typemock has made huge advances with its automated unit testing tools in the past eight years. The old arguments that unit testing is too hard no longer apply!”
 
Lopian noted that Agile Software Development has become widely accepted in recent years, but that some programmers still insist that unit testing is not an integral part of the Agile process. Lopian argues this point: “Without unit testing you may think you are Agile, you may be running fast but you are not healthy, you won’t be able to keep up to speed. Sooner or later, you, or even worse: your customers, will start finding bugs which will compel you to introduce changes to what is now legacy code - without any tests to show you what you’ve done wrong. In today’s hyper-competitive market, corporations cannot afford the resource and time drain of having to re-write their entire code every few years due to code decay.”
 
Lopian predicted that in the coming years all software will be developed with unit testing. He hopes the change will come from industry-made regulations similar to ISO, so that “software safety standards” will be in place. “As a developer myself, I have a dream”, Lopian ended, “that programmers will take the leap and become agile – really agile! This means not being afraid of legacy code, this means being proud of the software they've created, and this means building usable and sustainable code for millions of users. All this is within everyone's reach right now – with unit testing”.
 
About Eli Lopian
Eli founded Typemock in 2004 and serves as its CEO. A well-known figure in the agile and test driven development (TDD) arenas, Eli has over 17 years of R&D experience at large companies such as AMDOCS (NYSE:DOX) and Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC). In his previous roles, prior to founding Typemock, Eli was responsible for optimizing the development process and led the transformation of the development environment to support efficient processes and tools.
 
About Typemock
Typemock was conceived in 2004 to help programmers become agile through easy unit testing. Since the launch of the first version of Typemock Isolator in 2006, thousands of companies around the world use Typemock tools to make automated unit testing easy and to prevent bugs. Typemock users are developers from a wide range of sectors – such as defense, medical, and finance – that demand exceptionally high standards of quality and minimum bugs.

NewsNew WSO2 White Paper Explores Solution Architecture for Modernizing Big Data Analytics Within the Government Intelligence Community Pin
Thursday, May 16, 2013 7:47 AM by Member 9795673
White paper from WSO2 examines how to optimize the storage, management and analysis of big data using open source tools that are established and well vetted
 
Palo Alto, CA – May 16, 2013 – Today, commercial organizations are storing, retrieving, analyzing and exploiting large and disparate data sets, which are often geographically dispersed and subject to extraordinary security measures. As a result, the global IT industry has evolved powerful tools to optimize the storage, management and analysis of big data. For many valid reasons, military and civilian intelligence communities (IC) in the United States have been slow to exploit these tools, despite collecting orders of magnitude more information than ever. A new white paper from WSO2 examines how IC executives, CIOs and acquisitions managers can apply lessons learned by commercial IT organizations in using open source big data solutions to maximize organizational capabilities, mitigate analyst workloads, achieve more accurate and rapid intelligence analysis, and foster widespread adoption—all while lowering total cost of ownership (TCO) over time.
 
The white paper, “Managing Big Data for the Intelligence Community,” explores the nature of the big data problem facing the intelligence community. The paper examines the existing tools the IC has developed to handle intelligence collection, data ingestion, transport, storage, analysis and exploitation. It then explores the leading big data challenges facing the intelligence community and why IC executives and CIOs are re-examining their roadmaps for existing tools. The paper concludes by offering architects and developers a cost-effective prototype solution architecture for managing big data, which enables a timely implementation and is based on modern, established open source data management and analytics tools that are established and widely adopted.
 
The paper can be downloaded at http://wso2.com/whitepapers/managing-big-data-for-the-intelligence-community.

It is now available as a plug-in for MadCap Flare, the only software that lets authors create a single project and then directly publish it in multiple formats optimized for the Web, mobile devices, desktops, and print publishing. Additionally, the native XML architecture and support for Unicode and right to left (RTL) languages in Flare facilitate the ability to translate content into a broad range of languages. Using HyperSTE and Flare together, authors now have a powerful platform for developing content in STE once and then delivering it in the format and language of readers’ choice.
 
“Hand-in-hand with the global adoption of MadCap Flare and a rapid rise in the use of our software for multi-device publishing, we are seeing greater interest among our customers for the ability to author content in Simplified Technical English,” said MadCap Founder and CEO Anthony Olivier. “Through our partnership with Etteplan | Tedopres, we can now provide authors a fully integrated solution for standardizing their vocabulary and styles to further improve consistency, eliminate ambiguity, and reduce the complexity of their content—while ensuring compliance with corporate terminology and style guide rules. “The innovation of HyperSTE in ensuring quality STE content provides a powerful complement and natural extension to our cutting-edge Flare software.”
 
"MadCap Flare is in use at our company as well as at many of our customers where it has proven to be a comprehensive, state-of-the-art tool for creating and publishing content across multiple channels and facilitating translation into other languages,” said Berry Braster, marketing and sales director of Etteplan | Tedopres. “We immediately saw the synergies of partnering with MadCap to combine the power of our HyperSTE software with Flare to provide an integrated solution for delivering feature-rich STE content.”

NewsWSO2 Director of Defense and Government Solutions to Present Government PaaS Case Study Keynote at Cloud Computing East 2013 Pin
Tuesday, May 14, 2013 6:51 AM by Member 9795673
Presentation will examine how a governed cloud-based distributed system can effectively manage diverse developer groups across government organizations
 
Palo Alto, CA – May 14, 2013 – A governed cloud-based distributed development environment helps connect program managers and information assurance professionals with developers to facilitate application development. This enables software acquisitions program managers across government organizations to control and field applications both locally and remotely. WSO2 Director of Defense and Government Solutions Adam Firestone will examine the impact and benefits of this approach in his keynote presentation at Cloud Computing East 2013. The event runs May 19-21, 2013 at the Marriott Boston Copley Place in Boston, MA.
 
Adam Firestone will present his keynote examining governed platform as a service (PaaS) on Monday, May 20, 2013. The session is part of the event’s Cloud Computing for Government gCLOUD© Track, which focuses on government cloud computing deployments. In his talk, Adam will identify classic programmatic risks associated with distributed development teams and rapidly evolving information assurance requirements, and he will explain how a governed PaaS-based distributed development environment mitigates these risks. Adam then will explore how this architectural approach empowers program managers to effectively manage projects with multiple developer organizations and reduce the time and cost associated with the certification of traditional and mobile application development in the government sector.

NewsWSO2 to Present Webinar Series on Optimizing Enterprise Integration Through SOA Deployments Based on an ESB Model Pin
Thursday, May 9, 2013 1:10 PM by Member 9795673
Technical webinars will explore how to take advantage of an ESB model to support enterprise integration, REST services, and SOA deployment using the WSO2 ESB
 
Palo Alto, CA – May 9, 2013 – An effective service-oriented architecture (SOA) deployment relies heavily on an enterprise service bus (ESB), which serves as the backbone for connecting disparate systems based on a range of open standards and proprietary technologies. A new three-part webinar series from WSO2 will examine best practices that IT organizations can adopt to optimize their SOA deployments using an ESB model. The sessions, which run May 16-June 4, will be led by WSO2 technical experts responsible for WSO2 Enterprise Service Bus (http://wso2.com/products/enterprise-service-bus/) development, support and implementation services. The webinars include:
Enterprise Integration with the WSO2 ESB – An Introduction to the Fundamentals: Thursday, May 16, 2013
Enterprise Use Case Webinar – WSO2 ESB Integration with REST: Wednesday, May 29, 2013
WSO2 Advantage Webinar – Why the WSO2 ESB Should be Part of Your SOA Infrastructure: Tuesday, June 4, 2013
 
Each session will run from 9 a.m.-10 a.m. Pacific Daylight Time. To learn more and register, visit http://wso2.com/landing/wso2-esb-webinar-series.

May 16: An Introduction to ESB Fundamentals

High volume and the complexity of business requirements lead many organizations to move away from typical monolithic systems and adapt heterogeneous systems adhering to SOA standards. ESB middleware enables interoperability among heterogeneous environments where systems may include any combination of open standards, custom-builds, third-party technologies, or legacy systems. This webinar will explore the features and functions of an ESB, including background, architecture, applicability and benefits. Additionally, the session will examine fundamental enterprise integration patterns and demonstrate how to support them using WSO2 ESB.
 
Jointly presenting the session will be two WSO2 software engineers on the WSO2 integration technologies team: Isuru Udana and Pamod Sylvester. To learn more, visit http://wso2.org/library/webinars/2013/05/enterprise-integration-wso2-esb-introduction-fundamentals.
 
May 29: WSO2 ESB Integration with REST
Today, developers can define representational state transfer (REST) APIs in an ESB without writing additional code. However, exposing enterprise applications as RESTful APIs and managing them can present new challenges. This webinar will examine REST APIs, services and architecture; demonstrate a RESTful integration using WSO2 ESB; and examine how to design URL patterns for REST API support in the ESB. It also will examine the relationship between REST and SOAP, as well as introduce API management and OAuth security. Key questions the webinar will seek to address are:
• What is the proper mechanism to secure a REST service?
• How can thousands of APIs be managed effectively?
• Is it possible to address the data consumption needs of today?
• How can existing Web services be integrated following a RESTful style?
 
Joint presenters Dushan Abeyruwan, WSO2 senior software engineer, and Ravi Unduptiya, WSO2 software engineer, are members of the WSO2 integration technologies team. To learn more, visit http://wso2.org/library/webinars/2013/05/enterprise-use-case-webinar-wso2-esb-integration-rest.
 
June 4: Role of WSO2 ESB in an SOA Infrastructure
Facilitating interoperability among many heterogeneous software components in an SOA creates the potential for high scalability, high performance and high throughput. At the heart of many of these SOA implementation is an ESB. This webinar will examine architectural advantages of WSO2 ESB. It will review how the mediation engine has gained the ability to handle billions of transactions per day. Additionally, the session will explore how the event-driven asynchronous behavior of the design enables WSO2 ESB to process large loads of messages with very low latency. Other session topics will include:
• Mediation engine architecture
• New pass-through transport for ultra fast mediation
• The flexibility of the WSO2 ESB componentized architecture
• How WSO2 ESB can be deployed and used in the cloud
 
Leading the session will be two members of the WSO2 integration team who focus on WSO2 ESB: Ishan Jayawardena and Jeewantha Dharmaparakrama. To learn more, visit http://wso2.org/library/webinars/2013/06/wso2-advantage-webinar-wso2-esb-should-be-part-your-soa-infrastructure.

NewsNew WSO2 White Paper Explores Benefits of Composable Middleware Platform Architecture for Enterprise Application Development and Deployment Pin
Wednesday, May 8, 2013 7:10 AM by Member 9795673
White paper examines technical and business advantages of fully integrated, componentized WSO2 Carbon middleware platform based on Eclipse implementation of OSGi
 
Palo Alto, CA – May 8, 2013 – Too often, when IT organizations implement a vendor’s “suite” of middleware products, they discover the suite isn’t nearly as integrated as one might expect. As a result, enterprise architects and developers devote significant time on internal platform integration—increasing not only their cost of IT and risk of disrupting the business, but often stifling their ability to adopt new innovations and use IT agility as a competitive business differentiator. A new white paper from WSO2 examines how the company’s revolutionary componentized middleware architecture eliminates these integration roadblocks and enables more agile enterprise application development and deployment. The paper, “WSO2 Carbon: The Composable Platform,” can be downloaded at http://wso2.com/whitepapers/wso2-carbon-the-composable-platform-advantage.

IT Agility Through Platform Coherency

The white paper white paper introduces the core WSO2 Carbon architecture, as well as the WSO2 Carbon products built on this foundation, which comprise the WSO2 Carbon enterprise middleware platform (http://wso2.com/products/carbon/). It also examines how WSO2 Carbon relies on the Eclipse Equinox open source implementation of OSGi, the Java component technology popularized by the Eclipse integrated development environment (IDE) as its fundamental componentization technology. The paper then examines 10 top technical advantages customers have cited as benefits of adopting WSO2 Carbon middleware. It concludes with the resulting business advantages, including simpler, speedier projects; reduced risk of failure; and the ability to significantly reduce the need for specialized experts and consultants.
 
Among some of the concepts the paper examines are:
Platform coherency: functional components are shared across the entire platform, dispensing with overlapping functionality and eliminating complex intra-platform integration challenges.
Consistent usability: concepts, administration consoles, and APIs are common between all components of the platform, allowing developer skills to be applied broadly and efficiently.
Composability: architects and developers can easily add functional components as needed to a particular solution.

NewsTinkoff Boosts Performance While Trimming Operational Costs of Russian Internet Ad Platform Using Aerospike Real-Time Database Pin
Tuesday, May 7, 2013 9:30 AM by Member 9795673
New case study explores how Tinkoff’s DMP responds within milliseconds even as it scales to collect and manage data linked to hundreds of millions of Russian Internet users with Aerospike
 
Mountain View, CA – May 7, 2013 – From Madison Avenue to Moscow, online advertising is emerging as the fastest growing ad sector in the world. In 2012, a burgeoning Russian online advertising market reached nearly $2 billion and is expected to double to $4 billion by 2015. Tinkoff Digital is helping to accelerate Russian ad market growth through the development of new real-time technologies for the country’s booming online and mobile advertising sectors. A new case study examines how Tinkoff has increased performance while cutting operational and hardware costs associated with its previous NoSQL database using the Aerospike real-time hybrid memory and flash database. The full Tinkoff case study is available at: http://www.aerospike.com/why-aerospike/customers.
 
Tinkoff launched Russia’s first real-time bidding (RTB) platforms for online and mobile advertisers: DataMind and MADNET. More recently, Tinkoff strengthened its position as an early ad tech leader in Russia with the release of a new data management platform (DMP). Powered by the Aerospike real-time database, Tinkoff’s RTB-optimized DMP responds within milliseconds even as it scales, to collect and manage data linked to hundreds of millions of Russian Internet users.
 
Tinkoff Case Study
The new case study examines the factors that led Tinkoff to replace its existing NoSQL database with Aerospike. It also discusses how Tinkoff has deployed Aerospike across three data centers in Germany, the United Kingdom and United States to bring data closer to consumers while ensuring 100% uptime. Key benefits that Tinkoff has realized with Aerospike include:
 
• Delivers 20,000 parallel read/update operations per second with less than a 7-millisecond latency on half as many servers as were previously required, while managing hundreds of millions of profiles of Russian Internet users.
• Allows Tinkoff to achieve the same performance as its previous open source database with just a fraction of the hardware through Aerospike’s hybrid architecture combining RAM speed with flash reliability.
• Eliminates the need for workarounds in order to prevent performance degradation during parallel read/update operations, which Tinkoff experienced with its previous NoSQL database.
• Reduces work for engineers through Aerospike’s automated cluster configuration, significantly reducing maintenance and support costs.
• Enables Tinkoff to locate closer to consumers, deliver 100% uptime, and minimize hardware across data centers through Aerospike’s cross data center replication.
 
“Aerospike’s performance combined with the ability to reduce the costs of maintenance, support and hardware make Aerospike a truly attractive data management solution,” said Konstantin Kruglov, Tinkoff Digital CTO. “Given the results of adopting Aerospike for our data management platform, we are now planning to completely replace our previous NoSQL solution with Aerospike databases across our supply-side platform, demand-side platform, and mobile ad network.”
 
“Tinkoff is a leader in the Russian Internet ad market, which is expected to double in the next three years,” said Brian Bulkowski, Aerospike founder and CTO. “We are thrilled by the company’s success in implementing our Aerospike real-time database, not only to enhance performance and operational efficiency today, but also to provide a platform for sustainable growth that will enable Tinkoff to expand and meet market demand.”
 
About Tinkoff
Tinkoff Digital is а Russian developer of innovative Internet and mobile advertising technologies. Among its solutions are MADNET, the first RTB platform in Russia for mobile devices, and DataMind the first RTB platform in Russia for the Internet.

Tuesday, May 7, 2013 8:25 AM by Member 9795673
David Linthicum joins WSO2 technology executives in exploring key benefits and best practices in combining DevOps principles and PaaS characteristics for business agility
 
Palo Alto, CA – May 7, 2013 – In today’s dynamic business climate, IT agility is central to remaining competitive. However, enterprises seeking to capitalize on new market opportunities and technologies often have to work against outdated infrastructure to adapt applications, processes, decisions and services. In a new WSO2 webinar, renowned industry thought leader, David Linthicum, senior vice president of Cloud Technology Partners, will lead a discussion on how to combine DevOps principles and practices with platform as a service (PaaS) characteristics to enable business agility in today’s mercurial environment. He will be joined by John Mathon, WSO2 vice president of product marketing, and Chris Haddad, WSO2 vice president of technology evangelism.
 
The “Accelerate Business Agility with PaaS” webinar will be held on Wednesday, May 15, 2013. The session will run from 9 a.m.-10 a.m. Pacific Daylight Time. To learn more and register, visit http://wso2.org/library/webinars/2013/05/accelerate-business-agility-paas.

GeneralCreate & Manipulate PDF Files with Autoported Aspose.Pdf for Java Pin
Thursday, May 2, 2013 8:03 PM by sherazam

What's New in this Release?

The long awaited version of Aspose.Pdf for Java 4.0.0 has been released. This is the first autoported version of Aspose.Pdf for Java. This is a perfect time to rejoice and state that our Java product line is as robust in terms of features as its sibling .NET product line. When we look back into the history of Aspose.Pdf, we find that in July 2011, we introduced the first merged API release version of Aspose.Pdf for .NET. This enabled our customers to use a single component to create and manipulate existing PDF files. Over the years, we have been trying to further strengthen our .NET product and at the same time, we also have been working on porting Aspose.Pdf for .NET features to the Java platform, just to ensure that our Java customers get the same set of features and can play with PDF objects. Now the time has come and we are pleased to present the first release of the autoported Aspose.Pdf for Java.  With this release, Aspose.Pdf for Java has become capable to create PDF files from scratch, as well as now it offers the capability to manipulate existing PDF documents; because Aspose.Pdf.Kit for Java has been merged into this product and all its classes and enumerations are now present under com.aspose.pdf.facades package. Use this single component to fulfill all your PDF related requirements. This release also introduced a new Document Object Model (DOM). Previously it was introduced in Aspose.Pdf for .NET and to give the same leverage to our Java customers, we have ported this feature to Aspose.Pdf for Java. So now you get the capability to access PDF objects and manipulate them accordingly.  Keeping the legacy alive, in first release version, we are providing two Jar files (aspose.pdf-3.3.0.jdk1x.jar and aspose.pdf-new-4.0.0.jar). The intent of providing two jar files is to keep the migration impact as minimal as we can.

Newly added documentation pages and articles

Some new tips and articles have now been added into Aspose.Pdf for Java documentation that may guide you briefly how to use Aspose.Pdf for performing different tasks like the followings.
