Pykonik #73: Django policy-based access controls and Python apps performance!

Pykonik Tech Talks #73 will be hosted in "Działownia" on Politechnika Krakowska, details how to get here are in the sidebar on the right, or in "Location" section below.

We will have 2 longer talks with pizza break in-between and a lightning talks session at the very end.

ABAC-like - implementing a policy-based access control in Django - Maria Lowas-Rzechonek

Django comes with its own access control system based on permissions. But sooner or later, business requirements force us to implement more and more complicated `ifs` to handle a business logic on top of Django perms, sometimes to the point that we lose control over it.

I want to talk about implementing a policy-based access control in a Django app that provides a central point to manage such requirements in a consistent way. It doesn’t fight the framework, but uses its power, and it’s easily extendable.

Programista zoptymalizował aplikację ale nikt mu nie pogratulował bo była w Pythonie - Sebastian Buczyński

Wokół tematu wydajności w Pythonie narosło wiele mitów. Rozwiejmy te fałszywe przekonania opierając się na twardych danych.

Porozmawiajmy jak być lepszym inżynierem oprogramowania w ciągle zmieniającym się świecie, wymagającym podejmowania decyzji i balansowania między różnymi wymaganiami.

Lightning talks

There is no synopsis there, as there is no topic yet! Lightning talks are determined on the spot, during meeting! Each participant can ask for a mic and projector screen to present for 5 minutes any python related or completely unrelated topic! Just raise your hand when the announcer asks who wants to give a Lightning talk or approach one of the organizers during the meeting.
