Drupal as a web framework /slideshow/drupal-as-a-web-framework/7866688 drupalasawebframework-110506145727-phpapp01
Drupal isn't a content management system. It's an application development platform that happens to ship with a great CMS as it's default implementation. Look at any chart comparing features of development frameworks and you'll see user management and authentication, forms management and validation, data storage, database migrations, internationalization and translation, MVC model with flexible templating, unit testing, and caching. Sounds a lot like Drupal. We'll look at why Drupal is an ideal application development platform for apps beyond content management, talk about where Drupal can improve in these areas, and look at an example application.]]>

Introduction to jRuby /slideshow/introduction-to-jruby/4773312 sacruby-jruby-100716131529-phpapp02
jRuby allows a developer to run Ruby applications in a Java Virtual Machine. Adam Kalsey from Tropo explains why you'd want to do that, what jRuby can do for you, and show how Tropo uses jRuby in building a real-time communications cloud service. Includes how to deploy apps on jRuby, and some of the pitfalls to watch out for.]]>

Tuning Drupal for Scale and Performance /slideshow/tuning-drupal-for-scale-and-performance-presentation/601795 scaling-drupal-1221603319288351-8
"Drupal can't scale" has almost reached urban legend status. Talk to anyone not familiar with Drupal and you're certain to hear this criticism of Drupal. WorkHabit has scaled sites to handle the traffic from millions of active users and we'll explain strategies for scaling Drupal. This session will show you how to make Drupal scale on everything from shared hosting to large-scale clusters. You'll learn things you can do immediately to improve performance, reduce your server load, and increase the number of users your site can support. Whether you're a new site administrators or an old Drupal hack, you're sure to pick up some useful tips from this session. We'll talk about caching, tuning your code and database, and how to make Drupal handle billions of pageviews per month. This is an interactive session and asking questions during the presentation is encouraged.]]>

Drupal Module APIs /slideshow/drupal-module-apis-presentation/601794 module-apis-1221603303407172-9
Providing an API for your modules can make them more popular, reduce support requests from your users, and help you find new uses for your code. In this session, you'll learn how to add APIs to your modules, special considerations for modules with APIs, and find out about the APIs your module has by default. We'll talk about security, validation, and how to release and document your APIs to make life easier on other developers. Adam Kalsey created the Activity Stream module to build lifestreaming services into Drupal. Activity Stream's API allows any developer to add third party services to a lifestream. This talk will use real-world code samples from Activity Stream and from Drupal Core.]]>
