SUMMARY:SHARE (Orlando\, Florida)
DESCRIPTION:SHARE\, an independent volunteer-run information technology association that provides education\, professional networking and industry influence\, invites you to join them in Orlando on March 3-7\, 2024. SHARE is an associate member of the Open Mainframe Project and Open Mainframe ambassadors will be on-site.  Check out these Open Mainframe Project -related sessions and register here. \n**All sessions are listed in Eastern Standard Time (EST) and will take place at the Rosen Centre Hotel. \nMonday\, March 4:\n9:15 – 10:15 am: Customer Success Stories with the Open Mainframe Project Zowe – Joe Winchester and Ross Cruickshank\, IBM\, and Murali P Panchalingam \nThis talk covers a number of success customer stories and use cases adoptiong Zowe technology\, focusing on Education and training of New to Z staff\, DevOps and automation scripting\, Db2 modernization through Zowe Desktop extensions and VS Code development\, as well as custom SDK dashboards to build situational apps for in-house productivy. Each scenario is backed up by quotes and videos from the customers together with sample code and tips and information for others in their Zowe journey\, whether getting started or wanting to learn from the success of others. \n1:15-2:15 pm: The “ABC’s” of Building Dashboards Using Zowe APIs – Rose Sakach and Toine Micheielse\, Broadcom  \nReady to build a mainframe app using APIs? Then don’t miss this session. We’ll walk through each step of creating a simple dashboard using Zowe APIs\, Python\, a data store\, and Kibana. Walk away with a handy checklist containing all the details – no notebook required! \n2:45-3:45 pm: IBM Z System Automation 4.3 – Exploit Zowe and REST APIs to Enable Next Gen Operators – Gunnar Freitag\, IBM \nLearn about exciting new Z Automation capabilities of the new SA z/OS 4.3 release supporting IBM Z and DevOps for enhanced operations management. Learn about – On-demand automated resources to dynamically adapt to changing business requirements – The new ability to access your automation environment via REST calls and a wide variety of added enhancements making your life easier. Come and learn about user scenarios and improvements delivered recently. \n4-5 pm: Learn How Zowe Explorer Empowers Both New and Experienced Mainframers – Joe Winchester\, Billie Simmons\, Ross Cruickshank\, IBM \nThe Zowe Explorer Visual Studio Code plugin is being adopted as “the new face of Z” across the specturm of mainframe experience from education courses “IBM Z Explore\, COBOL training” through to experienced system programmers and assembler developers using it as their preferred IDE and mainframe “all-in-one” productivity workbench. This talk covers the different scenarios and use cases that enable everyone to explorer the mainframe with Zowe as their navigator. \nTuesday\, March 5:\n7:15 – 7:45 am: BOF: Mainframe Open Education Project – William Cash\, Hunter JOhnson and J.J. Lovett\, Broadcom  \nWorking session to build upon research conducted by the Core Team Members regarding roles and responsibilities\, the most desired education topics for NextGen mainframes\, evolving education to meet and suit the needs of new mainframers. We are looking to maintain engagement to drive year-round learning and education for the entire ecosystem through various avenues. \n10:30 – 11:30 am: Enterprise Deployment and Configuration of Zowe – Joe Winchester and Ross Cruickshank\, IBM\, and Murali P Panchalingam \nAs Zowe grows in maturity and adoption\, more customers are deploying it at scale\, in production environments\, and relying on it for more critical infrastructure workloads. This talk covers the use cases and patterns to assist with Enterprise roll-out\, covering everything from initial install and configuration of the first POC\, through to securing with client certificates\, MFA\, high availability within an LPAR or cross syplex\, rolling out updates\, central configuration of connection details. \n1-2 pm: PSP: Next-Gen Mainframe DevX with IntelliJ IDEA\, Jenkins\, and GitHub – Uladzislau Kalesnikau (Software Engineer\, IBA Group \nIn this presentation\, we focus on enhancing the Developer Experience (DevX) for mainframe systems by developing mainframe source code within the IntelliJ IDEA IDE environment\, managed as GitHub projects. Specifically\, we will delve into the build stage of the IBA Group DevOps suite\, which is based on Zowe products. Our discussion will include an in-depth look at the testing options available in this setup\, as well as Jenkins’ role in automating and optimizing workflows. We will also test how easily we can expand our solution by adding more parts\, and how well it can function in different settings. This will involve using CICS and working with various programming languages like COBOL\, HLASM\, Java\, and Python. \nLooking ahead\, we’ll examine the potential impact of the Language Server Protocol (LSP) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) on enhancing mainframe development in upcoming versions. This presentation is crucial for mainframe developers looking to enhance their DevX and modernize their development practices using IntelliJ IDEA. \nWednesday\, March 6:\n5:30-6:30 pm: ZEN – The “Easy Button” for Zowe Installation – Jan Prihoda\, Broadcom \nZEN helps you speed the deployment of Zowe through a wizard-driven configuration guide. Easily exploit rich features such as variable value validation\, real-time security validation\, assistance with certificate management\, and configuration file validation with just a few clicks. Come and see for yourself what ZEN can do from the comfort of your desktop! \nCheck out the complete schedule for SHARE and register here.
