Microservices in a Monolith

Using Git as a NoSql Database

Git is not just a source control system. It’s a content tracker we can (ab)use as a NoSQL database. Git has two features that traditional databases don’t support: deduplicated storage and automatic history tracking. This talk discusses how to leverage it and what the benefits and drawbacks are. The goal of this talk is three fold: show attendees creative usage of existing tools, demonstrate the capabilities of Git and how to leverage its power and dive into Git’s internals to gain a deeper understanding of a system a lot of developers use, but usually only know on a more superficial level.

All your money belongs to us (me) – In this talk, we’ll take a look at current (banking) “hacks” and demo our very own mobile hack.
There has been a surge in news articles about hacked and unsafe banking applications in the last months. During the last project at a client I had to switch sides and come up with various ways to hack our mobile app. This talk showcases how easy it is to create a “hype” hack.
Afterwards we’ll reflect on the impact level of those hacks and follow up actions.
