Hi everyone! Thursday is the offical book meeting day, so let's gather and share our reading. As usual, we will meet at the fourth floor of the Central Library as it has good facilities for book clubs and it is also free to use. No extra cafe money to spend. Idea is to meet and connect over books. Each participant present 1-2 books they would like to recommend or just talk about, and then we'll see where conversation leads us. Again, there is no limitation to genre or type of book you are reading. The point is that we are free to read whatever we want and then share those reading experiences, so remember to be respectful to each other. I hope to see as many of you as possible. :)

Azure Skåne invites you to yet another community evening — hosted on‑site at **Knowit, Malmö**. ***Please note that this is not our regular venue, so double‑check the location before you arrive.*** Agenda: * 17:15 - 17:45 Meet and Greet * 17:45 - 18:30 Session * 18:30 - 20:00 Food and Mingle "**Azure Durable Functions on the move**" Many companies rely on enterprise route-planning platforms that promise optimisation, flexibility, and scalability. In reality, they often become expensive black boxes that are hard to adapt, slow to evolve, and difficult to operate. In this talk, we will share the story of how our team replaced an enterprise route planning solution with our own system built on Azure Durable Functions. Instead of fighting the limitations of a monolithic product, we designed a cloud-native orchestration engine that is simpler, faster to iterate on, and easier to understand. By leveraging Durable Functions, we implemented complex routing workflows, parallel processing, and long-running optimizations without introducing heavy infrastructure. This talk is not about theoretical architecture. It is s a practical story of replacing enterprise software with a cloud-native approach, and what worked (and what didn’t) along the way. If you’re working with Azure, serverless architectures, or complex workflow orchestration, this session will give you real-world insights and ideas you can apply to your own systems. Speakers: •⁠ ⁠**Afolabi Abass**. Engineering Manager @Mover •⁠ ⁠**Yegor Lopatin**. Director of Engineering @Mover

**New Dojo Location!** **Draft Day Columbus** 1130 Dublin Road Columbus, OH 43215 We're going to try a new dojo location for a few weeks and see how it works Dojos are informal Python group study sessions where everyone interested in Python gathers to learn about Python, help others with Python, or just hang out. Everyone is welcome from Python beginners to experts. Bringing a laptop is encouraged (we'll have extension cords and power strips). If there's something you want to learn leave a comment on this invite so we can plan ahead. We're looking for topic suggestions and people interested in presenting at our monthly meetings. To this end we've set up a survey form at [https://docs.google.com/forms/d/15eBKF1nQQ2XS5gzD4rvhVRHMBEj7lJtHuA9wXupS3Uc](https://docs.google.com/forms/d/15eBKF1nQQ2XS5gzD4rvhVRHMBEj7lJtHuA9wXupS3Uc)

While some are still meeting online, this is an in person event. Please note that we have attendees of all levels of speaking, including some native speakers. All are welcome! Also, as we meet at the same time and place each week, many don’t RSVP on the app, so we will likely have more attendees than noted here. Note: if you are asked to pay and upgrade the Meetup app, this is not necessary. You can ignore this and still attend our meetings.
