Rencontre Airflow Paris : Les Nouveautés d'Airflow 3.2
**Rejoignez d'autres passionnés et leaders d'Airflow sur le magnifique rooftop d'Ippon Technologies pour une soirée de conférences captivantes, bonne nourriture, boissons et cadeaux exclusifs !**
Nous entendrons des leaders locaux de la communauté Airflow parler de la derniÚre version d'Airflow 3.2, ainsi que des présentations de cas d'usage concrets qui vous donneront des idées sur la façon dont vous pouvez utiliser Airflow dans votre propre entreprise.
**PRĂSENTATIONS**
**Conférence #1 :** Les Nouveautés d'Airflow 3.2
* Fabrice W. Ingénieur commercial senior chez Astronomer
* Suite Ă la sortie majeure de la version 3, Apache AirflowÂź continue de s'imposer comme la principale plateforme d'orchestration de workflows open-source. Airflow 3.2 apporte des avancĂ©es en matiĂšre de fonctionnalitĂ©s de gestion des assets et de la data, l'Ă©largissement des intĂ©grations clĂ©s, ainsi que des amĂ©liorations du cĆur d'Airflow. Ce webinaire offre un aperçu complet de la nouvelle version et vous montre des façons concrĂštes de tirer parti de ces mises Ă jour dans vos propres environnements.
Au cours de cette session, vous apprendrez :
* Les principales nouvelles fonctionnalités telles que les partitions d'assets, les intégrations mises à jour et les améliorations de l'interface
* Comment appliquer ces nouvelles fonctionnalités de la version 3.2 à vos workflows d'orchestration existants
* Ce qui est nouveau et ce qui a changé afin de planifier sereinement votre prochaine mise à jour
Que vous utilisiez Airflow 3.0 ou des versions antérieures, cette session vous préparera à tirer pleinement parti de ce qu'offre la version 3.2.
**Conférence #2 :** Comment on a unifié l'orchestration data pour 80+ engineers
* *Intervenant:* Ismail Mezzour, Ingénieur en plateforme de données cloud chez Accor
* Snowflake, Talend, Control M, Terraform, des outils maison, AWS CloudWatch EventsâŠ
Six briques, six interfaces, six façons de debugger.
RĂ©sultat : des Ă©quipes cloisonnĂ©es, un onboarding interminable, trois heures pour comprendre oĂč ça casse, puis deux de plus pour relancer et vĂ©rifier que tout sâenchaĂźne correctement.
On a dĂ©cidĂ© de tout centraliser pour aligner plus de 80 engineers autour dâune seule façon de travailler, et surtout retrouver une vraie vision de bout en bout de nos pipelines.
Dans ce talk, je partage notre retour dâexpĂ©rience, les gains concrets, les erreurs quâon a faites, et ce quâon referait diffĂ©remment.
Un retour honnĂȘte pour ceux qui envisagent une migration, ou qui commencent Ă se demander si leur stack actuel ne les ralentit pas dĂ©jĂ .
**AGENDA**
* **18h30-19h00 :** Arrivées, réseautage, nourriture et boissons

Collages éphémÚres
Venez vous poser le temps d'une crĂ©ation ludique inspirĂ©e par la matĂ©rialitĂ© qui nous entoure. L'atelier vous amĂšnera Ă observer diffĂ©remment et Ă composer avec toutes sortes d'objets, naturels ou recyclĂ©s, plastiques ou mĂ©talliques, fonctionnels ou pas, pour aller vers une crĂ©ation Ă©phĂ©mĂšre libre, car sans enjeu de rĂ©sultat. Les crĂ©ations, comme des sortes de collage Ă plat ou en volume, seront dĂ©construites Ă la fin de l'atelier, mais il sera possible d'en garder une trace. Cet atelier vous aidera Ă sortir d'une crĂ©ation basĂ©e sur les outils de la peinture et du dessin traditionnels pour dĂ©velopper votre regard et mettre un peu de crĂ©ativitĂ© dans votre quotidien. Un atelier pour ĂȘtre dans le plaisir du toucher dans l'instant plutĂŽt que dans l'objet fini et pour retrouver le goĂ»t de l'exploration !
Cet atelier est fait pour vous si vous avez envie de vous laisser surprendre par vous-mĂȘme, par les objets et plus largement par tout ce qui vous entoure.

Artiste peintre et médiatrice artistique, ma création est centrée sur le vivant, la nature et le monde qui m'entoure.

Soirée improvisation théùtrale !
Une soirée impro dans ce groupe ?
Voici longtemps que ce groupe consacré au management agile n'a pas eu de réunions. Je vous propose de venir à un spectacle d'improvisation théùtrale au Café de Paris, ce mercredi 22 avril.
**Quel rapport avec les sujets du groupe ?**
Comme pour le management dans un contexte qui change, l'impro théùtrale nécessite une écoute active du groupe et une importante capacité d'adaptation pour créer ensemble une histoire qui tient la route.
Pour ceux qui ne connaissent pas : un groupe d'improvisateurs va créer un spectacle unique devant le public sans aucun texte rédigé à l'avance ni aucune répétition. Tout est fait en improvisation, à partir des contraintes de l'animateur et de propositions amenées par le public.
**Chaque spectacle est unique !**
Offrez-vous une belle soirée découverte hors du commun dans une salle parisienne mythique, ça change de l'ordinaire et c'est trÚs drÎle !!!
**Tarif : une consommation et tarif libre**

Ready-Set-Write! Paris Saturday morning - BohÚme Café Coworking
## Details
Hello writers, we are happy to meet you in our new permanent home: BohĂšme Coworking, located at 21 rue Sedaine in the 11th arrondissement.
When you arrive, just tell the friendly folks at La Boheme reception that you are with the writing group. They will give you a little wooden knick-knack with the wifi codes and a number that they use to determine the cost based on time spent (it's 3,80 ⏠per hour, paid at the end).
***Now, about Ready-Set-Write! ..*.**
Ready Set Write! is a regular meeting of motivated writers who grab a beverage, then shut up and write.
***What it is:*** An opportunity for writers to get together and do short, intense bursts of writing. We write for 45-ish minutes, take a 15 minute break, rinse & repeat.
***What it is NOT:*** neither a forum for critiquing each other's work, nor shameless self-promoting your projects or groups.
You pay for the time you spend, and have access to coffee, tea, and wifi.
**AND FINALLY ...**
* Register in advance, and only if you will join us in-person.
* Update your RSVP if you cannot make it.
* Please be respectful and considerate with our writing colleagues.
***Stay tuned for location updates!***

What If Your AI Could Be a Team? - Chad Green
**Important time note:** Please plan on arriving between 5:30 and 6:00 as the elevators lock after 6 and you'll need to message us and we'll need to come get you.
The building address is 4450 Bridge Park
The entrance is 6620 Mooney St, Suite 400
You will need to scan your ID at the door to get a visitor badge.
**Abstract**
GitHub Copilot is powerful, but what if you could scale from a solo AI assistant to an entire team of specialized agents working in parallel? This session introduces Squad: an open-source framework for multi-agent orchestration that lets you define teams of AI agents with specific roles, responsibilities, and expertise.
We'll progress from Copilot basics to the Copilot CLI, explore how Agents add autonomy, and see how Instructions and Skills let you customize agent behavior. Then, the climax: a live demo where a Squad team of 3 agents (Lead, Developer, Tester) stands up and builds a working application in real-time, showcasing true multi-agent collaboration.
Whether you're new to AI or exploring how to scale your use of Copilot, this session will show you what's possible when agents work as a team.

Free in-person event: Take Control of Your Mental Health
Itâs time to take control of your mental health. How do you get rid of stress, anxiety and uncertainty? These emotions are buried deep in your reactive mind. Find out what the reactive mind is, and in the process find yourself.
Have you ever suffered from a traumatic experience, a deep loss or been through a painful breakup? Has your ability to communicate suffered as a result? And after that, even though you "moved on" did you find that things were never quite the same? Have you ever looked at childhood photos, or reminisced your early life and wondered where that happiness and spark went?
Are your emotions out of your own control? Have you ever felt, even if you arenât aware of it, that possibly you are getting in your own way of your happiness and success? How does this affect your self-confidence?
Find out what is at the root of all stress, anxiety, depression and self-doubt. Find out how and why you hold yourself back from achieving your goals and having the life you have dreamed of. As soon as you learn what is at the root of these unwanted conditions, youâll see it is something you can DO something about. You will not be labeled or categorized at this MeetUp.

The Story So Far: A WiA Reflection Circle
A WiA Collective Wisdom Exchange
At the start of this year, we gathered to look back, set intentions, and imagine the next chapter.
This is the follow-up.
Not a check-in. Not a progress report. A small, facilitated circle to reconnect with what you said mattered â and honestly explore whatâs actually happening now.
Together, weâll explore:
âą What you intended at the start of this year - and what that looks like three months in
âą Whatâs surprised you, supported you, or shifted
âą What the next chapter needs now that you know what you know
If you were at our January gathering, bring whatever you made or wrote â your word, your artifact, your intention. Weâll look at it with fresh eyes. If this is your first time, you belong here too. Youâll start where we all started: with whatâs true right now.
Optional art materials will be available for anyone who wants to reflect creatively alongside conversation. If you brought something home from January, youâre warmly invited to bring it back.
The intention is the same as always: everyone leaves feeling more clear, more connected, and a little lighter.
Space is intentionally limited to keep the experience intimate.
What to Expect
âą A small, welcoming circle (not a large meetup)
âą Structured conversation so everyone has space to speak
âą Reflection, listening, and lived experience â not advice-giving
âą Optional creative reflection alongside conversation
âą A calm, supportive environment
Who This Is For
Women and underrepresented folks working in or around agile, product, technology, leadership, or organizational change â especially those looking for honest conversation and community beyond frameworks and buzzwords.
Good to Know
âą No preparation required
âą If you attended in January, we invite you to bring anything you created or wrote (or something that represents your intention at the start of the year) - itâs optional but invited
âą Participation is invitational; listening is always welcome
âą Creative activities are optional
