​​*A 'Humans in the Loop' community event with Elastic, Uptime Labs & PagerDuty in collaboration with OOPS!* ​​We’re taking over the Greenwich Design District for an evening dedicated to the unsung heroes of the stack: **The Humans in the Loop.** AI adoption offers a range of benefits, but while our systems get more complex, the role of the human in incident response has never been more critical. ​Come trade your real-time operations stories, share your best 'oops' moments, and learn how to keep the 'human' in your high-availability architecture. 📅 **Date and Time:** Monday, June 1, from 6:00-9:00 PM 📍 **Location:** Design District Address: 19 Soames Walk, London SE10 0AX, UK ​​**What to expect:** * ​​🎤 **Lightning Keynotes** \- short\, sharp and stimulating\, local experts share their takes\. * ​​🍻 **Sip & Savour:** Delicious pizza and refreshing drinks to fuel the conversation. * ​​🤝 **The OOPs Group:** Connect with the outage ops + incident response community, because misery loves company, but resilience loves a party. ​🧠 **Talks** **Many Humans in Many Loops** by **Carly Richmond**, Developer Advocate Lead (Elastic) *Human in the Loop, or HITL, provides us the ability to validate AI output using friendly and knowledgeable humans. But is that the only human loop in AI incident management systems? Join Carly as she covers other human loops, including reinforcement learning with feedback and context engineering, and how loops with a low threshold encourage alert fatigue.* **Incident Response Reimagined: Accelerating Resolution with AI Agents** by **Daniel Afonso**, Senior Developer Advocate (PagerDuty) *Learn how PagerDuty is leveraging Agentic AI to transform the incident lifecycle from reactive firefighting to proactive prevention.* *Daniel demonstrates how new tools like the SRE Agent and Scribe Agent assist engineers during high-pressure outages by autonomously triaging alerts, querying logs in tools like Grafana, and transcribing context directly into incident channels.* *Beyond immediate response, this demo highlights a "shift left" strategy using the new PagerDuty MCP server and Claude Code plugin, which allows developers to assess the risk of code changes against historical incident data before deployment, ultimately aiming to reduce the frequency of on-call.* ✍️ ​​**RSVP now before we reach capacity**

**For our next London meet-up on the 1st of June we have teamed up with CAAT (Campaign Against Arms Trade).** Join us to discuss the role of Big Tech companies in the military-industrial complex, Palantir, and how technologies that we use every day are being deployed in wars and genocides. We will be also talking about what Tech alternatives exist, how we can move away from these Big Tech companies, and how we can fight back for our digital independence. **Sign up here:** [https://supporters.openrightsgroup.org/civicrm/event/info/?reset=1&id=14](https://supporters.openrightsgroup.org/civicrm/event/info/?reset=1&id=14)

This crossover event brings together platform engineers, cloud architects, data and AI leaders, SREs, engineering managers, technology executives, and practitioners exploring how AI is reshaping modern cloud platforms, developer workflows, business transformation, and enterprise engineering. This is a special **Community Stack ecosystem event**, bringing together several of our cloud, platform, and data-focused communities for an evening of practical talks, senior technical discussion, and cross-community networking. A huge thank you to **[Arrows](https://www.arrowsgroup.com/)** for hosting and sponsoring this event, and for supporting the growth of the cloud, platform engineering, data, and AI community in London.

In this session, Nora will explore how organisations can achieve a stronger return on investment from AI business transformation.

But how can those years of learning be applied to build the next generation of agentic systems for users? In this session, Ryan Cormack and Luke Marrai from Motorway will explore how they are enhancing the functionality of Motorway’s platform to provide more accurate search results for dealers looking to acquire stock through the online marketplace. The talk will cover how Motorway is using **AWS AgentCore** to run its agentic systems, and how evals are being used to ensure the system performs as expected. Ryan Cormack is a Principal Engineer at Motorway, the UK’s leading used car marketplace, where he leads technical strategy and drives AI-powered transformation across the engineering organisation. With over 14 years of experience building and scaling systems on AWS, Ryan specialises in turning architectural best practices into practical engineering outcomes, from cloud modernisation programmes to the adoption of agentic workflows and AI-native developer tooling.

Hi folks! Welcome to our June Cloud Native London meetup! Join us to hear from our two fantastic speakers and network with your fellow techies over pizza and drinks, or alternatively chat and following along on Youtube or LinkedIn! 6:00 Pizza and drinks 6:30 Welcome 6:45 Universal Mesh: Connect and Secure Everything (Mark Boddington, HAProxy Technologies) 7:15 Building Abstractions That Matter: A Developer Platform on Kubernetes (Chaamini Mangaleswaran, WSO2) 7:45 Wrap up See you there! Cheryl (@oicheryl) **Universal Mesh: Connect and Secure Everything (Mark Boddington, HAProxy Technologies)** Managing connectivity across diverse business units, clouds, locations, and partners is a complex challenge for large organizations. Traditional solutions like VPNs and firewalls provide network-level connectivity, while Service Mesh offers application-aware traffic management for cloud-native environments – but there’s a huge difference in how these connectivity models are managed, secured, and observed. Universal Mesh bridges this gap with a unified interconnectivity model – delivering the benefits of Service Mesh in a resource-efficient model that works across your entire infrastructure. Universal Mesh brings together North-South and East-West communication in a consistent pattern to connect every cloud, app, and service. Join us to discover how Universal Mesh simplifies connectivity management, unifies security and governance, and provides consistent control over traffic flows—regardless of where your applications run or how they’re built. **Building Abstractions That Matter: A Developer Platform on Kubernetes (Chaamini Mangaleswaran, WSO2)** Kubernetes provides powerful building blocks, but turning those blocks into a usable developer platform is hard. Many platform teams end up assembling CI pipelines, deployment tools, portals, and monitoring systems, only to pass the resulting complexity on to developers.In this talk, I’ll share the thinking behind OpenChoreo, an open-source, modular platform designed to sit on top of Kubernetes and make it easier for developers to build and run software without needing to understand everything underneath. The key idea is simple: introduce the right abstractions, so developers can focus on shipping features while platform teams retain control and consistency.In this talk we will discuss practical examples of what to hide, what to expose, and how to avoid turning Kubernetes itself into a developer-facing interface. If you’re building or struggling with an internal developer platform, this talk is for you. *Check out [https://www.oicheryl.com/cloudnativelondon](https://www.oicheryl.com/cloudnativelondon) if you're interested in speaking or sponsoring.*

Join us as we get together to see Paul Rudd in the latest comedy-drama-musical from John Carney, POWER BALLAD! The film follows a washed-up wedding singer, a fading boy band singer and a stolen hit song. Here’s a description, trailer and plan for this event: DESCRIPTION: Rick, a washed-up wedding singer, and Danny, a fading boy band star, bond over music and a late-night jam session. When Danny turns Rick's song into a hit, Rick sets out to reclaim the recognition he believes he deserves. Power Ballad is written/directed by John Carney, the master of the modern musical and creative mind behind Once, Begin Again and Sing Street! It stars Paul Rudd, Nick Jonas, Peter McDonald, Marcella Plunkett, Havana Rose Liu and Jack Reynor. BUZZ & ACCLAIM: The film premiered to rave reviews at this year’s Dublin International Film Festival where critics call it “a sure-fired crowd-pleaser” that “just might be the feel-good hit of the year!” Others say, “Paul Rudd delivers a career-best performance in this charmer” that’s both “hilarious and deeply moving." The film continues John Carney’s “long run of success with yet another charmer” and “a sharp, hopeful crowd-pleaser that strikes the right notes!” SUMMER OF ICE CREAM, VOL 2: SHAKE NO. 8!
