Re: ApacheCon '09 Geronimo Track Call for Papers
Just wondering what happens to the proposals submitted through conference web site. On Fri, Jul 17, 2009 at 8:34 AM, Kevan Miller kevan.mil...@gmail.comwrote: This years ApacheCon US Conference (Oakland, CA, USA - Nov 2 to 6 2009) will include a 1/2 day Geronimo Track. This is a call for session proposals. Please have submissions in by Monday 12 Noon EDT. We need to finalize the session contents early next week. Apache Geronimo is a lightweight, flexible, component-based server for building dynamic application server environments. Geronimo plugins can be assembled into a fully compliant Java EE Server. However, it can be easily assembled into a server providing a subset of functionality or a minimal subset required to meet the requirements of a set of applications. In addition to the Apache Geronimo Server, the Geronimo project is also comprised of a number of subprojects: Development Tools, XBean, Yoko, GShell, JavaMail, Connector/Transaction, etc. Potential topics for the Geronimo Track include, but are in no way limited to: * Geronimo architecture, * Systems management, * Custom server assemblies, * Application development and user experiences, * OSGi Blueprint, * Kernel restructuring, * Java EE 6, * etc. Please submit Talk proposals on this mail thread. Each suggestion should include: * Title * Speaker name(s) * Abstract (Short overview of the talk contents) Thanks! Look forward to seeing you at ApacheCon! --kevan -- Vamsi

Re: ApacheCon '09 Geronimo Track Call for Papers
So, just to be a little bit more clear. I'm going to give this call for papers a little more time. Hoping that Vamsi will respond with his proposal. We've had a few last minute proposals. Given that part of the time was the weekend, want to be sure that everyone has a chance... Heck, I may work up a proposal of my own... ;-) --kevan

* Title Administering Apache Geronimo 2.x * Speaker name(s) Vamsavardhana Reddy Chillakuru * Abstract (Short overview of the talk contents) Apache Geronimo 2.x is certified Java Enterprise Edition 5.0 container suitable for everything from a development environment to enterprise-level deployments. Geronimo leverages many Apache projects, such as Tomcat, OpenEJB, ActiveMQ, Derby. This session will cover administering Geronimo from two points of view: configuring an existing Geronimo server directly through the powerful web based administration console or editing configuration files, and secondly through Geronimo plugins containing configuration information either used in a custom server assembly or installed into an existing server. Some of the topics covered are: - First steps in getting Geronimo ready for a production environment, - Administering embedded Tomcat, ActiveMQ, Derby. - Managing keys, digital certificates and configuring SSL. - Running a cluster of multiple server instances from the same installation. *Bio: Vamsavardhana Reddy Chillakuru a.k.a. Vamsi is an Advisory Software Engineer working with IBM India Private Limited since 1996 and has over 12 years experience in the IT industry.

Re: ApacheCon '09 Geronimo Track Call for Papers
* Title Securing Java EE 5.0 Applications with Apache Geronimo * Speaker name(s) Vamsavardhana Reddy Chillakuru * Abstract (Short overview of the talk contents) Security is always a high priority in application development, and with complex applications the task becomes even more daunting. While the Java EE specification, JAAS and JACC provide a step in the right direction, every application server is free to implement container security differently. Apache Geronimo, a JEE 5.0 certified container, enables storing user credentials in a variety of data stores viz., simple text files, a database, an LDAP server and digital certificates. In this session we see how these data stores can be used to configure application security and how the necessary infrastructure can be run in Apache Geronimo itself. The session presents: a) Prerequisites for PropertiesFile, Database, LDAP and CertificatePropertiesFile realms and shows how to create these realms. b) Advanced features like auditing, lockout after repeated failures, prinicipal wrapping, single-sign-on, etc. c) Configuring Web/EJB/EAR application security. After completing this session, the audience will gain knowledge on their choice of data stores for user credentials, create various security realms and deployment plans necessary to secure their applications with Geronimo. * Bio: Vamsavardhana Reddy Chillakuru a.k.a. Vamsi is an Advisory Software Engineer working with IBM India Private Limited since 1996 and has over 12 years experience in the IT industry. He is a committer on Apache Geronimo and Apache Tuscany projects and member of the Apache Geronimo PMC. He received his B.Stat.(Hons.) and M.Stat. degrees from Indian Statistical Institute, Kolkata, India in the years 1994 and 1996 respectively.

* Title Load balancing and high-availability with Geronimo clusters * Speaker name(s) Vamsavardhana Reddy Chillakuru * Abstract (Short overview of the talk contents) Apache Geronimo 2.x is certified Java Enterprise Edition 5.0 container suitable for everything from a development environment to enterprise-level deployments. Geronimo can be clustered in different ways, for e.g. using clustering capabilities provided by Tomcat, using the WADI integration of Geronimo, etc. This session details on various clustering options available with Geronimo and configuring load-balancing and failover of web applications using mod_jk Apache HTTP Server. After completing this session, the audience will be familiar with the clustering and farming features provided by Geronimo, running multiple instances of Geronimo server from the same installation, preparing their applications for deployment on the cluster and know how to configure Geronimo clusters to suit their needs. *Bio: Vamsavardhana Reddy Chillakuru a.k.a.

Re: ApacheCon '09 Geronimo Track Call for Papers
Here's a talk proposal about Blueprint Container Specification. However, it might fit better within some more general talk about Geronimo and OSGi (if there is going to be one like that).
