🥇P — anticipation, as well as the Preliminary DUMP Program in Kazan. Watch the reports that have gone through the selection process

Every third speaker DUMP said during the selection: "Wow, everything is so serious here!" or "Can there be several runs?" Maybe, maybe…
Hardcore and practice, practice and hardcore — this is what mid-level professionals expect when they come to DAMPs. The program committee filters each application through 3 selection stages.

November 8 in Kazan will feature Alexander Orlov (Stratoplan), Grigory Petrov (Evrone), Alexey Kataev (Skyeng), Polina Gurtovaya (Evil Martians), Maxim Arshinov (HighTech Group), Pavel Malyshev (Mustlab), Denis Kolesnikov (Avito) and other top-notch and simply excellent speakers.

Workshops

Automated Machine Learning using Azure Machine Learning Service

(duration 80 minutes)
Instructor: Mikhail Komarov, Microsoft MVP

In the workshop, we will go through all the steps from creating and configuring Azure ML Service to deploying a Web application in Azure with the obtained model.

Participants need to have:
A laptop with Windows/Linux with the default software installed.
Visual Studio Code code.visualstudio.com
Anaconda 3.7 www.anaconda.com/distribution
Register for a trial subscription to Azure.

A Simple Fault-Tolerant Cluster on Postgres, Patroni, Consul, S3, Walg, Ansible

(duration 80 minutes)
Instructor: Andrey Fefelev, mastery.pro

Patroni is becoming the de facto standard for building fault-tolerant Postgres clusters.
In the workshop, we will build a simple fault-tolerant cluster of 3 nodes using the mentioned stack. (At first glance, it doesn't look simple).

We will briefly introduce Patroni's architecture and discuss the most interesting configuration parameters.

We will explore how the file ver works and the ways to initialize the cluster.

After the workshop, you will be able to launch such a cluster from scratch using the provided Ansible playbooks.
We won't waste time at the workshop setting up the necessary versions of Docker or virtual machines.

You will need: a laptop with internet access and a websocket-compatible browser (Chrome, Firefox).

You wanted features, I have them! Programming practice in C# 8

Facilitator: Andrey Karpov, JetBrains

C# continues to evolve intensively, adding new features.
We will explore the most interesting innovations of the language and learn how to apply them in practice.

After the workshop, you'll be able to start using C# 8 in your work.

You will need a laptop with Visual Studio 2019 installed and the ReSharper 2019.3 EAP plugin (https://www.jetbrains.com/resharper/eap/) or Rider 2019.3 EAP (https://www.jetbrains.com/rider/eap/).

"Good slides" or "Helping, not hindering"

Facilitator: Alexander Shushunov, EPAM Systems

The modern IT world is becoming increasingly demanding of the soft skills of its inhabitants. We are communicating more frequently, engaging others in our projects, and selling ideas (and projects). As a result, we are increasingly presenting to other people: at conferences and universities, in front of colleagues, management, clients, and investors.

In the workshop, I will show real examples of how to create a quality presentation that will truly convey your message to the audience and change their perception of the subject of your talk. Join us; it will be useful, interesting, and fun!

From us, the organizers: Usually, we are taught to present by business trainers, coaches, managers, and other mentors. But this is not an ordinary workshop. This time, a developer will teach developers how to present! Alexander is a Senior Software Engineer at EPAM Systems.

In the workshop, you will need any convenient tool to take notes.

The program is 95% ready, and the ticket price will remain low until October 15. If you were planning to attend DUMP Kazan, now is the time to secure your spot..

Additionally, there will be entertainment from conference partners, networking areas with speakers, a lot of food, and an after-party at Lock Stock Bar, but more about that in the upcoming news.

Goodbye for now! See you at #DUMP!
