What we’re about
The longest running and largest community for Cloud Native (inclusive of all CNCF projects, from sandbox to graduation) professionals and enthusiasts in The Netherlands. We now talk about AI too (of course:))! Kubernetes plays a pivotal role in training and inference, so obviously we are very interested in the intersection of Cloud Native&AI.
We organize monthly gatherings where folks from all backgrounds (developers, CxOs, sales, engineers, cooks and more :)) are welcome to share their stories and connect over food, drinks and technical talks; we run regular workshops to introduce anyone that wants to learn to cloud native technologies, including observability, security and AI.

1st Talk:
Title: Infrastructure Organization that scales
Infrastructure Organization that scales: what paradigms (Infrastructure as Code, Platform Engineering, API first) and what mindset do you need for your infrastrucutre to scale ? What makes the AWS, Google, the hyper scaler seem to scale their infrastructure without friction whilst many companies seem to struggle on this and revert to a more human centric approach. What are the stragegies at play and what are the benefits of both and what's a way forward.
Speaker:
Sjuul Jannsen is a developer & team architect that is not afraid for a challenge, in face of struggle Sjuul Jannsen tries to ask why are we doing this and how can we improve the organisation ?
Together with Thomas Reichel who is a Enterprise Architect they are on a mission to change how ASML thinks about infrastructure.
2nd Talk:
Title: Architect for change and failure, because both are guaranteed
Description:
When we design modern platforms, escpecially in envorioments as complex at ASML, we cannot assume stability or permanence. New workloads appear. Teams scale. Hardware evolves. Vendors shift direction. And things break sometime at the worst possible moment.
How do you design a system that copes with this from the get go ?
Speaker:
Laura Dragen is a cloud architect at Dell, she worked at Google before joing Dell where she was a part of their AI divsion before the AI boom.
