Talk 1 - AWS vs. Azure: The Key Differences That Matter
- Description: Think AWS and Azure are practically the same, just with different service names? Think again. As someone who’s worked professionally with both platforms for years, I can tell you—they’re fundamentally different in ways that can significantly impact your projects.
In this session, I’ll share key insights into areas where AWS and Azure diverge, including feature parity, pricing, sustainability, developer experience and serverless capabilities. Whether you’re choosing between providers, managing multi-cloud environments, or seeking to leverage their unique strengths, this talk will give you the knowledge to make smart cloud decisions.
Join me to uncover the key contrasts between AWS and Azure that could save your team time, money, and frustration.

Q&A and Networking Break 🤔
- Following the first talk, we'll have a short Q&A session.
- Feel free to ask questions and exchange ideas with your peers.
Talk 2 - GitOps-Driven Terraform Automation with Atlantis
- Description: They say Atlantis was a mythical lost city — full of mystery, magic… and probably a lot of unmanaged infrastructure.
Thankfully, our Atlantis isn't lost — it's an open-source tool that brings order to Terraform chaos.
Having worked extensively with Terraform in team settings, I know the headache of maintaining infrastructure manually: copy-pasting terraform plan outputs, resolving merge conflicts, chasing approvals, and hoping nobody ran terraform apply in the wrong directory.
In this session, I’ll share how Atlantis helped us eliminate manual CLI steps, improve collaboration across the team while get faster, safer feedback on changes and scale infrastructure workflows with confidence.
If your team is growing and your IaC process is starting to feel like a lost city, it’s time to meet Atlantis.
