TokyoDev Talks Vol. 10: Hard Lessons in Abstraction / Short-Lived Certificates
イベント説明
Join us for TokyoDev Talks, where we have presentations that cut across the stack from engineers working at some of the most interesting tech companies in Japan.
Note that attendance for this event is limited to software developers, those aspiring to become one, or working in an adjacent position (e.g. Product Managers, UI/UX Designers, Security Engineers, QA Engineers, etc). If you're unsure whether you're qualified to attend, please get in touch.
This event is being held at Tokyo Innovation Base (TiB). When attending it, you'll also need to complete the free registration process with TiB if you have not already done so. You are strongly encouraged to complete this in advance, as otherwise you'll need to complete it on site before you're allowed into the venue.
Agenda
18:30 〜 19:00 Doors open
Enjoy talking with the other participants before the presentations begin. Drinks and a light meal will be provided by TokyoDev.
19:00 〜 19:05 Opening - Paul McMahon
We'll kick things off by welcoming everyone and giving a short introduction of the event.
19:05 〜 19:30 Hard Lessons in Abstraction: What I Learned Wrapping Map SDKs — Masashi Katsumata
When I started building a unified abstraction over multiple map SDKs, I assumed the main challenge would be implementation.
That assumption was wrong.
This talk focuses on the engineering challenges of abstraction fundamentally different systems behind a single interface.
I'll share concrete mistakes and trade-offs, including why "just wrapping the API" failed,
how conceptual differences caused unexpected behavior, and how performance constraints forced architectural redesigns.
Drawing from both my own experience and a previous open-source project with a similar goal,
I'll discuss what worked, what didn't, and the lessons that apply for beyond map SDKs.
Masashi Katsumata (Freelance Software Engineer)
Masashi is the author of three books about the Google Maps API, creator of the Google Maps plugin for Cordova, and has experience working as a software engineer in both Japan and the US.
19:40 〜 20:05 Long Live Short-Lived Certificates! Updates on Public Key Infrastructure — Alexis Hancock
Certificates are used in TLS (the protocol behind HTTPS) to authenticate servers and enable encrypted communication between clients (such as browsers) and servers. Recent changes have reduced maximum certificate lifetimes from 90 to 45 days and introduced short-lived certificates valid for as little as 160 hours. This presentation explores these changes and why they came about.
Alexis Hancock (Director of Engineering at Electronic Frontier Foundation)
Alexis works to keep the networks strong and encrypted by managing the Certbot project. As well as ensuring external EFF tools for the public are well supported. She researches an intersection of issues on digital rights, encryption, and consumer technology. She believes in an open and equitable web through encouraging expansion of security by default, bridging engineers and security research, and advocating for better and stronger tech policy and standards.
20:05 〜 20:45 Open Networking
Discuss the presentation or anything else with the other attendees.
