How can a JavaScript-based search engine retrieve millions of records in a matter of microseconds? Why is JavaScript the right language to implement a true isomorphic application to be deployed everywhere, from mobile applications to edge networks? In this talk, we will see how Lyra, a full-text search engine written in JavaScript, is challenging the search industry with an incredible combination of performance and developer experience.

Spline is an easy to use 3D design tool geared for any designer regardless of their 3D experience. It's simpler to learn than full featured 3D apps—such as Cinema 4D or Blender—because it doesn't bog you down with loads and loads of settings and features. Best of all, it is browser-based and FREE, so literally anyone can use it no matter what computer you have! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rqTrvNLFono

In the past year, the standards around Wasm and WASI have started to solidify and become reality. One of the most interesting emerging standards has been the Component Model. Similar to how interchangeable parts dramatically changed manufacturing, Wasm components have the potential to change we build software. However, there is still confusion among those following the growth of Wasm about how the Component Model works and what it can do. Using practical examples, code drawn from recent work on wasmCloud, and the Component Model as a backdrop, this session will explore what the Component Model is, how it works, and how it will change how software is consumed.
