Presentations
Introduction to the SpringSource dm Server
The SpringSource dm Server is the next-generation modular middleware platform. In this session, Project Lead Rob Harrop and SpringSource CTO Adrian Colyer will present a rapid, hands-on introduction to the dm Server.
Topics covered will include:
- What is the dm Server?
- Getting started with the dm Server
- Building modular applications on dm Server
- Using the dm Server tools
- dm Server Roadmap
At the end of this session attendees will have all the knowledge needed to get started with the dm Server and modular applications. Delegates can attend the Advanced SpringSource dm Server session to learn more about using dm Server in their organization
Attendees should have an intermediate understanding of Java SE and Java EE web applications
Advanced SpringSource dm Server
Following on from the Introduction to the SpringSource dm Server session, Project Lead Rob Harrop and SpringSource Distinguished Engineer Glyn Normington will discuss advanced dm Server use cases and internals.
Topics will include:
- dm Server architecture
- Advanced OSGi wiring
- Deployment, personalities, and profiles
- Diagnosing common developer errors
- Serviceability and support infrastructure
- Migrating Java EE applications
Attendees should be familiar with the SpringSource dm Server and should have an intermediate understanding of Java SE and Java EE web applications.
Building Large-Scale, Modular Software
In this session, SpringSource dm Server Project Lead Rob Harrop and SpringSource Distinguished Engineer Glyn Normington will discuss the design and implementation of large-scale, modular software using the dm Server as a case study.
Topics covered will include:
- Designing for modularity: responsibility driven design
- Reliability and serviceability
- Environmental issues
- Systems, layering, subsystems, modules, and dependencies
- Conceptual integrity and convergence
- The use of formal methods and multiple models
- Concurrency
- Causally Connected Self Representation (CCSR) concepts
Attendees should have an intermediate understanding of Java SE, design patterns and common architectural challenges.
Advanced Concurrency: Design and Construction
Following on from his popular concurrency session from last year, Rob will present a hardcore discussion of concurrency in Java and beyond.
Attendees will learn about:
- Concurrency in Java 6 and Java 7
- Patterns for concurrent applications

Spring—the open source Java–based framework—allows you to build lighter, better performing applications. Written by Spring insiders Rob Harrop and Jan Machacek, Pro Spring is the only book endorsed by Rod Johnson, founder of the Spring Framework. At over 800 pages, this is by far the most comprehensive book available and thoroughly explores the power of Spring. You’ll learn Spring basics and core topics, as well as share the authors’ insights and real–world experience with remoting, mail integration, hibernate, and EJB.
From the foreword: “Rob's enthusiasm for Spring—and technology in general—is infectious. He has a wide range of industry experience and a refreshingly practical, common sense approach to applying it. All those qualities come out in this book. It’s evident on nearly every page that it reflects in–depth experience with Spring and J2EE as a whole. Rob is not only an author and open source developer—he is an application developer, like his readers. I firmly believe that the best writing on software development comes out of experience in the trenches, so this is my kind of book.
If you’re new to Spring, this book will help you understand its core concepts and the background in areas such as transaction management and O/R mapping that underpins them. If you’re already using Spring, you will learn about features you haven’t yet seen and hopefully, gain a deeper understanding of those features youre already using.”
