Wroclaw Open Source Meetup #2

Get ready for Wroclaw Open Source Meetup #2!

23rd February 2019 - this time, we're booking the wonderful Barbara venue for a Saturday evening so that everyone can enjoy a longer night out with the Wroclaw open source community.

Two talks, a Q&A session with Zephyr-capable devkit giveaways and the networking afterparty, naturally.

Agenda:

Singularity - open source file-based containerization

Singularity is an open source container technology designed to encapsulate reproducible application stacks into a single file. Created at Berkeley Lab / Sylabs with HPC use cases in mind, Singularity is quickly gaining momentum as in other areas, providing secure and reproducible containers e.g. for ML training or industrial vision.

The presentation will cover the basic features and benefits of Singularity, some examples of practical use cases, a showcase of docker interoperability, and insights into the future.

Zephyr - small, scalable open source RTOS for IoT embedded devices

The Zephyr Project is a scalable real-time operating system (RTOS) supporting multiple hardware architectures, optimized for resource constrained devices, and built with safety and security in mind.

This presentation will cover the practical aspects of using an open source RTOS in real-life commercial projects varying from IoT-class gadgets to safety-critical application devices. Learn about the opportunities - and challenges - arising from the openness of the system and follow our guide on how to start using and developing with Zephyr.

Don’t miss this talk for one more reason: this time we will be giving away development boards capable of running Zephyr to our most active participants!
