This month, we're venturing over to GONG HQ to her two talks from staffers SDE Vanja Tesin, and Senior Engineering Manager Anthony Brady. DETAILS & OFFICIAL BOOKING >>>>> https://ti.to/dublin-java-user-group/264-gong-hq Check your schedule first (it's not cool to not show!) ## **Talk 1:** GONG & Agentic AI Tools Gong built an agentic AI solution called Claude Code to help developers work more effectively across its complex microservice architecture of over 100+ repositories. Using a multi-agent system with specialised rules, skills, and subagents, it automates development tasks and reduces time spent on research and context switching. The result is faster development and better pattern compliance, reducing complex tasks from days to hours. Join Vanja Tesin to discover how. ## **Talk 1:** **Resilience in Microservices** In the distributed landscape of modern backend architecture, the question isn’t if a service will fail, but when. Without robust fault tolerance, a single latent dependency can trigger a cascading failure across an entire ecosystem. Anthony's talk will focus on how Gong overcame some of those challenges and how they are implementing resilience utilising patterns such as Circuit Breakers, Rate Limiters and others to maintain stability and provide graceful degradation even when downstream services are under duress.

Welcome to lockpicking at Tog. Join us as we teach the various methods of picking and bypassing common locks in Ireland. All equipment provided. Warm clothes reccomended as the heating isnt the best.

Dear fellow Gaeilgeoiri, Cead mile failte / a warm welcome to this group of Irish language lovers and enthusiasts. Hope you will enjoy everything it has to offer and feel free to suggest new events, and, why not step in as an event organizer? What this group is not: - A group limited to those with perfect proficiency in the language, where any single word of English is banned, and where you will get corrected for every séimhiú that, God forbid, you might be forgetting What this group is: - A forum of Gaeilge enthusiasts willing to share their interest and love of the language. We all started learning a language, including our own, from scratch at some point in our lives. Absolute beginners are welcome and should not feel intimidated. Near perfect and native Irish speakers are also welcome to share their vast knowledge of the language. Hopefully this will create a thriving community of lovers of the language at any level. Beir bua Alex (organizer)
