Go Meetup at Einride

Let’s get together and share thoughts and experiences on the Go programming language.

Agenda:

17:30 – 18:00 Meet and greet
18:00 – 18:20 Welcome

18:20 – 18:50 Golang on Wheels

Speaker: Oscar Söderlund

Modern vehicles are distributed systems on wheels where microcontrollers and computers communicate on decentralized networks known as CAN buses.

CAN (Controller Area Network) is a de-facto standard for networked
communication in vehicles and heavy machinery.

In this talk, we demo our Open Source CAN toolchain for Go, share some
learnings from developing it, and how we've drawn inspiration from Go's standard library and Google's protocol buffers.

18:50 – 19:30 Devops <3 Go

Speaker: Simon Aronsson

Much of the tooling used for infrastructure automation still consists of page after page of shell scripts. Our operations tools deserve the same level of care, quality and portability as the software we deliver!

What if, instead of building our ops tooling as scripts, we were to build them as services? With great golang features like cross-platform (and architecture) compilation, static linking, docker client api's and more - nothing is holding us back.

During 30 minutes, we'll be looking at some aspects of why golang is so awesome for doing devops work.

19:30 – 20:00 Drinks and mingle
