Intro | List Recordings | Other Lists of Recordings

The UGTV site holds links to recordings from user group speakers all over the world (primarily on ColdFusion but also other Adobe topics. More on the intro page.) While it's offered as a free service by Charlie Arehart and carehart.org, anyone can add links using this easy form. If you're looking for downloadable recordings, see the note at bottom here.

The list currently holds 886 presentations from 377 presenters, totaling 964+ hours of video, that I and 67 others have added so far. (Note available RSS feed below, including an available feed based on search criteria.)

Play: CFMeetup: Using LaunchDarkly for feature flag management in CF applications (Show Description) Feature flags are a system of enabling certain functionality in your app based on test groups, cross-cutting segments of users, and your internal release processes. Feature flags can be updated on the fly at any time by any user and don't require deploying new code to your servers. LaunchDarkly is a system that helps you manage your feature flags and how they respond to the users of your site. It offers detailed tracking of each user, each flag, and a robust set of rules for determining which users see which features. In this session, we'll see an overview of how to use the new LaunchDarkly SDK which can be used in ColdFusion applications. Demos will include both ColdBox apps and non-ColdBox legacy apps.

Play: ColdFusion at 25: not the kid most have stuck in their minds (Show Description) As ColdFusion turns 26 next month, many seem stuck remembering it only as the "teen" they knew or even the "child", when instead it's grown up to be a capable "adult", impressive in many ways, and even more so recently. In this session, we'll look back at how CF has indeed evolved into a very capable platform, with quite modern features that seem to surprise many--including people working with it currently. If you struggle "finding CF people" or "getting buy-in", perhaps these observations could help you with both challenges. If nothing else, they're things designed simply to help you get your job done, while keeping up with modern practices. We'll start with many modern coding techniques--which will be familiar to those using more "modern" languages but that many don't realize CF supports, and may have for years. We'll then look at ways things such as CF installation/deployment, configuration/administration, monitoring, security, and more have improved over the years. And we'll look not only at CF itself but the community surrounding it, ranging from resources for help and learning to tools and services that others have created, making CF a far more complete ecosystem than most give it credit. Put another way: it's not your father's CF!	Charlie Arehart	1:04	2021-06-22	2021-07-15	charlie arehart
Play: CFMeetup: CF Modernization Challenges - Improving Legacy Code (Show Description) Every ColdFusion developer is a builder and an artist. We want to create and craft beautiful, elegant solutions with CFML that are powerful and dynamic... but sometimes, we still need to deal with the legacy code that was built a decade ago by a developer who has long since left the organization and didn't know what they were doing to begin with. Or, maybe the company direction has shifted (again) and what was a priority in the past is no longer relevant. Maybe the approach you originally took to a problem can be done cleaner, and more efficiently. Maybe there's new functionality in ColdFusion that renders old approaches obsolete. At some point, modernization of your approach becomes necessary to retain your sanity! In this group therapy session, I will discuss legacy code, why it's difficult to manage, how to take incremental approaches to improving it and some techniques on how to modernize your development approach.

Play: CFMeetup: Getting Started with FusionReactor (Show Description) New to FusionReactor? Perhaps you have a license but aren't sure how to tap into the features? We'll cover the basics of using FR to profile code, view your running and recent requests, and how to tell what is making a request slow. We'll cover tracking JDBC requests, HTTPS calls, and using the Profiler feature. There are many more features in FR, but we'll cover enough to get you started.

Play: API's Part 6: API Monitoring and Alerting (Show Description) Learn how to use analytics features, write Elastic queries, set up reports and create rich dashboards. It will also look at simple ways to build an alerting system for problematic APIs, along with real-time monitoring of errors.	Brian Sappey	0:52	2021-05-24	2021-06-10	charlie arehart
Play: API's Part 5: Security and How to Protect Your Organization (Show Description) Get a detailed look at Adobe ColdFusion's security standards, with respect to your APIs and the API Manager. Learn about OAuth, along with the configuration of user stores, to secure your organization's services. (Part 5 was originally to be another session, to be held the day before, "Policy Management and Access Controls", but it had to be postponed.)	Brian Sappey	0:53	2021-05-13	2021-06-10	charlie arehart
Play: CFMeetup: Installing CF2021: choices, challenges, and solutions (Show Description) If you're considering moving to CF2021, there are some things to consider before or as you may install it. First, there's a new "zip" install option, in addition to the traditional full installer. What's that about? why should you use it? what are some challenges, and why might you not want to? We'll cover that. Second, even with the full installer there are new options and choices, and perhaps it's been a while since you have installed even other CF versions. We will cover some of the key choices presented. We'll also discuss aspects of migrating CF admin settings from an old version to a new, and touch briefly on the pros and cons of installing a new CF version alongside an old one. There are certainly other challenges with installing ColdFusion, and we will also open the floor for questions about that and cover whatever else we can in the hour allotted.

Play: CFMeetup: To the future with cbFutures! (Show Description) In this session we will explore the asynchronous and parallel programming constructs built into the ColdBox 6 Async Package. Java has supported a robust and functional approach to asynchronous programming since JDK8 and now it is available to us all in the Coldfusion (CFML) ? World! To the future!

Look for this interface to improve over time...

...including categorizing (vital as more are added), perhaps using Flex or Ajax. Additionally, I'd like to offer the option to capture more details about each presentation as well as to add a mechanism for viewers to share comments with each other on each presentation.

If you have other ideas, let me know at charlie (at) carehart.org.

About "no description"

If there's "no description available", it's just that the submitter didn't offer one. It could be that there simply was none they could offer, or they didn't know where to find one. I don't want to hamper people submitting presentations by forcing them to come up with descriptions. The field is there if they have one to offer. In the future, I'll enable a mechanism for folks to offer comments on each presentation, and from those I would gladly update the description (or allow the submitter to).

Looking for downloadable versions?

Are you looking for downloadable versions of these recordings? I'm afraid that's not something I can control for most of these recordings. TO be clear, this UGTV resource is just a repository of *links* to recordings (which can be posted by anyone at all). I do not host the *recordings*. I only offer a place to point to them in an organized fashion.
