SQL Server On Linux: Will It Perform Or Not?
Will SQL Server perform on Linux better than on Windows? Have you been wondering whether the multi-layer architecture the team revealed recently will hurt SQL Server’s performance? Are you still not convinced about the entire endeavor. Come, listen to the talk, learn about SQL Server’s platform agnostic architecture then derive the answers for yourself. The talk will briefly go over history of the project, high level architecture and dive fast into core of I/O Manager, Memory Manager, and Scheduler. To make the talk more fun, every topic will include lessons learned and experiences behind the scenes.

Property-Based Testing In Practice
Testing is a cornerstone of modern software development. It provides us with a safety net against bugs and regressions – without testing, it would be impossible to write large-scale applications. The traditional approach to testing relies on hard-coded examples: fire some specific inputs into...

Assuring Crypto Code with Automated Reasoning
Bugs in software are ubiquitous, but the impact of these bugs can vary widely. Sometimes they are largely benign, and at other times they can have catastrophic effects. Bugs in cryptographic software tend to be especially serious. To add to that, cryptographic algorithms are difficult to design...

Panel: What's Next for Our Programming Languages?
Types, testability, tooling, paradigms, productivity, managed, native, concurrency, parallelism, performance, asynchrony, integrations, memory management, security, resilience, or, maybe, simple readability? What are the important things crossing the minds of language designers today as they...

Power of the Log:LSM & Append Only Data Structures
This talk is about the beauty of sequential access and append only data structures. We'll do this in the context of a little known paper entitled “Log Structured Merge Trees”. LSM describes a surprisingly counterintuitive approach to storing and accessing data in a sequential fashion. It came...

Pony: Co-Designing A Type-System And A Run-Time
Pony is an actor-model, capabilities-secure, native programming language. I will talk about reference capabilities (a type system for data-race freedom influenced by object capabilities and deny guarantee reasoning), the ORCA and MAC protocols for fully concurrent no-stop-the-world garbage...
