Apache Maven (Standardized Java Build System) -
Speaker: Neil Hall, Technology Specialist, Capital BlueCross
Neil has been in software development for 11+ years in the Insurance
industry. Over the past six years, his Java development work has
entailed developing batch and web applications, web services, core
API's in addition to third-party software integration. Various Java
frameworks have been used and ANT scripts were leveraged to build and
deploy software. Neil was a primary influence in implementing an
Apache Maven build and software lifecycle to replace an ANT-based
build and deployment process at CBC. The Maven implementation
standardized project development, eased deployment, handled jar
dependencies, and generated project documentation.
Neil's degrees include a B/A in Communications, an Associate in
Computer Science, and a Masters in Information Systems.
