We're looking forward to hosting another VlbgWebDev meetup at our ♥ly office in Dornbirn.

From Docs to Chat: Building a Knowledge Assistant with Onyx by Péter Vékony
Finding the right documentation shouldn’t feel like detective work.
Péter Vékony shares how he set up a knowledge assistant using Onyx — an open-source platform that connects to tools like Confluence and Google Drive to make company information searchable and conversational. A practical session on turning scattered documentation into a smart, accessible resource anyone can chat with.

From Cloud to Self-Hosted: A Monitoring Migration Journey by Erik Bessegato
This talk covers our journey migrating from the cloud-based UptimeRobot to a self-hosted Cloudprober setup. We'll explore the limitations of SaaS monitoring that triggered the change—from unpredictable scaling costs to a lack of flexibility—and walk through our process for choosing and implementing an open-source alternative. A practical case study on designing a new monitoring architecture, integrating it with Prometheus and Grafana, and the valuable lessons learned in gaining technical control while also achieving significant cost savings.
