Summer is over, the Cloud is back

Join us for the GDG Helsinki Cloud meetup at the new Google Helsinki office! We'll have an evening of knowledge sharing and networking. If you have trouble finding the venue, call Marko at 0452193560.

Schedule:

17:00 Doors open

17:30 Welcome and Introduction

17:45 Infrastructure as Data with Config Connector (Mike Vainio @ Teamit)

Config Connector allows you to provision Google Cloud resources using Kubernetes custom resources. Some call this Infrastructure as Data (IaD), as opposed to Infrastructure as Code (Iac) with tools like Terraform. In this talk Mike walks through the trade-offs of IaC versus IaD, and also gives an introduction to Config Connector.

18:15 Break

18:30 Testing in the cloud: challenges and opportunities (Victor Rincón, Staff QA Engineer @ Ritchie Bros Finland)

The cloud has transformed software development, but it also introduces new complexities for quality assurance. This talk will share practical insights from leading QA efforts in cloud environments, exploring common challenges like managing ephemeral test environments and controlling costs. Victor will also discuss key opportunities, such as leveraging cloud-native tools and fostering a culture of shared quality ownership.

19:00 Networking
