We’ll discuss the benefits of local development and the pitfalls of other methods.

Shift Left Testing & Continuous Collaboration
Testing has become an integral part of Drupal development but often it's often only focused on technical aspects and implemented at the end of the project lifecycle.
Shift left testing is the process of moving the testing phase left of its usual position in the delivery pipeline so that it occurs as close as possible to the build process. By proactively testing integrations early and often, you can isolate most defects sooner for faster remediation, resulting in more efficient projects with higher quality.

While there are many powerful contrib modules that do some amazing things, sometimes you will have a unique problem for which a contrib module hasn't been developed for.

In this session, I will talk about modules and settings you can implement while building your site to make search engine optimization even better. These tools will also give site administrators the tools they want to do all their SEO tweaking without modifying templates and needing FTP access, if possible.

The Future of Internet Security
The year is 2030 and between your house, your car, and all your gadgets are connected to the web. Wait. That’s today. If all we do is connected to the web today, what does that look like 20 years from now? With the rate of integration increasing at a blazing rate, what does this mean to our personal and online security? How will we be able to leverage machine learning into this and at what point does machine learning become too powerful? These are all questions we’ll have to face over the upcoming decade.
