Business Intelligence

Umjetna inteligencija sve više mijenja način na koji brendovi komuniciraju s publikom – od analize podataka i personalizacije sadržaja do automatizacije kampanja i kreativne produkcije. Na ovom panelu razgovarat ćemo o tome kako AI već danas pomaže marketingašima da rade brže, pametnije i učinkovitije, ali i gdje su njegove granice. Panelisti će podijeliti konkretne primjere iz prakse, alate koje koriste te savjete kako AI integrirati u svakodnevni marketing bez gubitka autentičnosti brenda.

We examine the limitations, advantages, and requirements of each model to provide a clear decision guideline for when to use each one. This session aims Power BI developers, data analysts, BI architects, and anyone interested in maximizing the efficiency and flexibility of their Power BI solutions. By the end of this session, atttendees will * know the main differences between Import, DirectQuery and Composit models * be able to choose (wisely) the right model for a given task * understand the impact on report design, user experience and governance If you want to avoid classic model type mishaps, this session is for you. Make your users (and database admins) happy and choose wisely!

**Cloud Native Night Munich** AI agents are no longer just generating text — they are opening pull requests, deploying to Kubernetes, and making autonomous decisions inside production systems. But how do we secure, govern, and observe systems that are inherently non-deterministic? In this meetup, we explore practical patterns for fine-grained authorization of AI-driven DevOps workflows and robust observability strategies for autonomous agents. Expect concrete architectures, cloud-native tooling, and real-world lessons for building agentic AI you can actually trust in production. THIS MEETUP WILL BE HYBRID. **\|** Zoom link will be available shortly before the meetup starts \*\*\* AGENDA \*\*\* * 6\.30 PM \| Doors open\. Grab some snacks & drinks\. * 7\.00 PM \| Welcome & Intro – **Start of hybrid meetup** * 7\.15 PM \| **Beyond API Keys: Fine-Grained AI Agent Authorization for DevOps**, Ankit Asthana (Cloud infrastructure Architect at SQUER), Tom Graupner (Head of Cloud & Platform Engineering as SQUER) * \~8:15 PM \| **Mastering Agentic Observability: Reliable Multi-Agent Systems with OpenTelemetry,** Nicolai Ommer (Software Architect at QAware) * afterwards: More snacks & drinks, and a lot of time for networking with all attendees and speakers. \*\*\* ABSTRACTS \*\*\* **Beyond API Keys: Fine-Grained AI Agent Authorization for DevOps**, Ankit Asthana (Cloud infrastructure Architect at SQUER), Tom Graupner (Head of Cloud & Platform Engineering as SQUER) AI agents are increasingly performing powerful DevOps actions like opening pull requests and deploying to Kubernetes. Yet most teams still rely on static tokens for authorization, which creates security and governance risks. In this talk, we present a practical pattern using OpenFGA and an Agent Gateway to enforce relationship-based, auditable authorization for AI-driven DevOps workflows—ensuring automation remains fast, controlled, and explainable. **Mastering Agentic Observability: Reliable Multi-Agent Systems with OpenTelemetry,** Nicolai Ommer (Software Architect at QAware) The software landscape is undergoing a paradigm shift. Agentic AI. While microservices operate deterministically, AI agents act probabilistically and often unpredictably, making them autonomous. This presents a significant challenge for platform engineers and DevOps teams. How can you monitor a service whose response varies with each call? How can you debug a 'hallucination' or an endless loop in decision-making? In this talk, we will demonstrate why traditional 'golden signals' (latency, traffic and errors) are insufficient for AI agents and explain how they must be expanded. We treat agents as the new microservices and use the well-established OpenTelemetry (OTel) standard to shed light on the inner workings of LLMs and agentic workforces. \*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\* Please comply with our [Code of Conduct](https://www.greenmanifesto.de/en/code-of-conduct).

Un viaggio nel mondo dell'homelab: dall'hardware al software, passando per WordPress, Docker, Proxmox e modelli AI locali. Perche' montarsi un server in casa nel 2026? Per imparare, acquisire competenze reali e divertirsi un sacco. Vedremo come si e' evoluto il self-hosting negli ultimi 15 anni, cosa serve davvero per iniziare, quali tool vale la pena provare e come accedere ai propri servizi da fuori casa senza impazzire col networking. Per chiudere, un po' pratica: apriremo il terminale per "deployare qualcosa" qualcosa insieme. Non serve un datacenter.

## (Lesson 2) ## What to expect Project Equilibrium is an in-person introduction to disciplined, rule-based trading automation. This first event is designed to be clear, practical, and approachable no hype, no pressure, and no prior technical background required. ### Why we meet (two-session structure) This meetup is structured as **two lessons**: **Lesson 1 — The “Why” (mindset + framework)** * What Project Equilibrium is (and what it is not) * Why we focus on process, rules, and execution discipline * What “24/7 execution” means in practice * Q&A and open discussion **Lesson 2 — The “How” (step-by-step setup)** * A simple walkthrough of the basic tools you need * Step-by-step guidance to install and prepare the required exchange apps/accounts * A clear checklist to be ready for future sessions (You won’t be left alone—everything is explained calmly and in order.) ### What to bring To make the second lesson smooth, please bring: * **A smartphone** (for authentication and exchange app setup) * **A laptop** (for the setup steps and configuration) If you only have one device, you can still join Lesson 1. The setup lesson is simply easier with both. ### Who this is for * People curious about algorithmic execution and portfolio discipline * Beginners who want a structured approach * Experienced traders who want more consistency and less stress ### Agenda * Welcome + introductions * Lesson focus of the day (Why / How) * Guided walkthrough (where applicable) * Q&A + next steps ### How to find the group * Arrive a few minutes early and look for the **Project Equilibrium** group. * I will be there to welcome attendees if you’re unsure, simply ask the venue staff for the Meetup group name.
