From info at uksmalltalk.org Mon Sep 28 14:32:49 2026 From: info at uksmalltalk.org (UK Smalltalk) Date: Mon, 28 Sep 2026 22:32:49 +0100 Subject: [GemStone-Smalltalk] UKSTUG Meeting: Norbert Hartl - The ins and outs and ups and downs of deployed Smalltalk images - 30 September 2026 Message-ID: Deploying a Smalltalk image as a service raises a new class of questions, and answering requests is the least of them. What are the ins and outs of a running image ? what do you put in, what does it report back out? And what about its ups and downs, now that staying up is the job? Canopy ( https://github.com/ApptiveGrid/Canopy ) , grown out of running ApptiveGrid ( https://www.apptivegrid.de/en/ ) in production, is one way to look at those differently: two things you normally maintain separately turn out to be the same thing. Along the way we work out what actually matters when you have to keep a service running ? and what follows from that is the rest of the talk. Norbert Hartl ( https://github.com/noha ) is an experienced software engineer and entrepreneur with a strong track record of delivering business projects and developing key libraries and frameworks. As the co-founder of ApptiveGrid he focuses on creating efficient, zero-dependency software solutions that drive business innovation and streamline operations. This will be an online meeting.
