React SSR at Scale — Insights from Bol.com’s Cloud Architecture - Robin Aldenhoven, Staff Engineer at Bol
Scaling React SSR to thousands of requests per second requires more than just fast code — it takes the right architecture. Join me as I share how we evolved Bol.com’s SSR setup to thrive in the cloud: tackling performance bottlenecks, managing concurrency, and achieving production-scale reliability.

From Manual to Velocity: The Spec-Driven Way - Keyvan Mahmoudi, Senior Frontend Consultant at iO
Transform weeks of manual API work into seconds of automated generation with Orval and OpenAPI specs. Learn how to build type-safe BFFs, generate DTOs automatically, and create complete frontend clients from a single source of truth.

Scaling on national level: Engineering Lessons from Buienradar - Neel Bhatt, Solutions Architect at Buienradar
Discover the technology behind Netherlands' biggest weather platform and how we serve millions of users daily with accurate forecasts. We'll explore our scalable infrastructure, Kubernetes journey, platform engineering approach, and how we use Grafana for observability while processing massive data volumes to deliver reliable weather predictions at scale.
