Seven talks will be about ownCloud: driving the technological improvements in the cloud area. Also some ownCloud employees are giving talks to contribute to the technological progress:<\/p>\n<h2>Talks about ownCloud<\/h2>\n<h3>ownCloud in large scale environments<\/h3>\n<div id=\"attachment_14429\" style=\"width: 210px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-14429\" class=\"size-full wp-image-14429\" src=\"https:\/\/owncloud.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/ownCloud-J\u00f6rn-Friedrich-Dreyer-1.jpg\" alt=\"ownCloud J\u00f6rn Friedrich Dreyer\" width=\"200\" height=\"200\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-14429\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Senior solutions architect <a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/butonic\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">J\u00f6rn Friedrich Dreyer<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/butonic\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>J\u00f6rn Friedrich Dreyer<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0(ownCloud senior solutions architect since 2012),\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/DeepDiver1975\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>Thomas M\u00fcller<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0(ownCloud chief architect since the beginning) and <a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/patrickjahns\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>Patrick Jahns<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0(head of ownCloud quality assurance), three ownCloud experts, will talk about their <a href=\"https:\/\/indico.cern.ch\/event\/663264\/contributions\/2818174\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">research into ownCloud scalability<\/a>. This recently led to <a href=\"https:\/\/owncloud.com\/news\/owncloud-refactored-ldap-app-brings-significantly-improved-sync-performance\/\">enormous performance improvements<\/a> to the ownCloud LDAP Integration app. ownCloud is running in more and more large-scale environments, e.g. <a href=\"https:\/\/owncloud.com\/government-india-banks-owncloud-digilocker-project\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">India offers ownCloud to millions of its citizens<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Gregory Vernon<\/strong>\u00a0&#8211; a valued member and contributor of the ownCloud community &#8211; already gave a talk about <a href=\"https:\/\/occon17.owncloud.org\/class\/greg-vernon-improving-owncloud-database-performance\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">database performance improvement<\/a> at the last ownCloud conference. At this years CS3 conference he is talking about his experience with taking over a service running ownCloud on virtualized infrastructure (Openstack\/CEPH), and how he mastered this complex task. After he took over the responsibility for SWITCHdrive last summer, he managed to adapt to the very complex SWITCHdrive system, and even enhanced it.<\/p>\n<p>They say: &#8222;Over the past year <a href=\"https:\/\/www.switch.ch\/about\/foundation\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">we at SWITCH<\/a> were able to get our SWITCHdrive service to perform much better with improved assistance from ownCloud support. Together we were able to identify the root cause of some database issues and have received a number of patches that have helped our stability. The teamwork between our engineers and ownCloud&#8217;s Engineers have allowed us to make remarkable performance changes.&#8220;<\/p>\n<p>See the details to his talk <a href=\"https:\/\/indico.cern.ch\/event\/663264\/contributions\/2818160\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"clear: both;\">ObjectStore integrations<\/h3>\n<p>At the ownCloud Conference 2017, <strong>Thomas M\u00fcller<\/strong> presented the outlook on integrating ObjectStore in ownCloud, and called it &#8222;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=0k1JqE1SBbk\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">a Love Story<\/a>&#8222;.

After having more experience with large scale environments, the ownCloud developers have reflected on ownCloud&#8217;s architecture.
