Title: Three levels of API gateway sophistication
Speaker: Michael Stenskjær Christensen
Description: The API is the universal interaction medium in a world where still more computational work is distributed, tasks are outsourced to providers, and concerns are separated within an organization. But exposing your application to the big and wild internet can be difficult. In the presentation we go through three levels of API surface maturity and sophistication. We start with a very basic solution and move to sophisticated handling of authentication, monitoring, routing and different levels of user tiers for monetization. We will see how this is done by rolling our own security before moving on to Google Endpoints and finally going all-in with Apigee.

Title: Why serverless never really worked for me until now!
Speaker: Kevin Simper
Description: In this presentation I want to talk about how I have tried serverless many times but always had issues. I could see the potential but it was always difficult to see it end to end, and when you are busy to often end up defaulting to what you already know. Now Google has launched Cloud Run and it looks to be the perfect solution, but does such a solution exist? Come and hear how I approach serverless with Cloud Run, Cloud Build, Berglas, Cloud KMS and bazel.build

Can I present something at the meetup?
Yes, you are very welcome to come and present your ideas/solutions. We really appreciate and actively promote talks that help the community to get a new look at something or see how something is used in other companies! Reach out here on meetup or on email!

Looking forward to see you,
