Another first: This week's guest Máté Thurzó presents a brief 37000ft overview over Staging. Yes, this is literally 37000ft - we both were lucky to be invited to the North America Symposium 2014 and had the same flight back. Yes, this episode has been recorded 11277m over the atlantic ocean on the flight from Boston to Frankfurt, and it's also a first time that you see me use imperial units voluntarily. We talked about
- The problem that staging solves
- "Workflow" for a whole site
- What's new in staging in Liferay 6.2?
- Staging in custom portlets
- sample LAR portlet on github
- Service Builder builds a lot of code required for staging
- my Ridiculously Simple Portlets and Máté's Staging appearance on dev.life, extending those simple portlets
- How LAR import/export relates to staging
- Local vs. Remote Staging
- The new staging UI: Visible Progress, Background processing
- Performance rule of thumbs: "it depends" - I don't give the numbers here. Listen to the conversation to find out what it depends on.
- Staging through multiple stages
- The future of staging (in 7.0, available in the current milestone)
- The effect of customer feedback on the future of staging. Hopefully you gave your feedback at Devcon, where Máté was attending to get more feedback. This episode should have been out by then; sorry, postprocessing took a while longer than anticipated.
