In Kubernetes, TLS certificates are typically stored in Secrets and mounted into pods. When a Secret is updated, for example, due to certificate rotation by cert-manager, Kubernetes updates the projected secret volume. Hot reload mechanisms detect these file changes and reload TLS certificates without restarting the pod. This enables live certificate rotation, maximizes availability, and reduces operational risk associated with restarts. The approach makes shorter-lived TLS certificates operationally viable. Janne is a Cloud Platform Engineer at the SIX Group, where he builds cloud platforms and services for the financial community. Originally from Finland, he now lives in Baar, Zug. Opinions are his own. Cloud-Native Application Definition and Delivery with OAM and KubeVela, Raffael Klingler (AXA) What if developers could focus on their applications instead of the platform beneath them? The Open Application Model (OAM) makes this possible by shifting the focus from containers and orchestrators to applications themselves. Instead of wrangling low-level Kubernetes manifests, developers define applications using modular, reusable building blocks. KubeVela brings this model to life, rendering abstract definitions into deployable resources. In this session, we'll explore how OAM enables application-centric definitions and see KubeVela in action. You'll see an application evolve from a simple definition to a sophisticated setup with cloud-managed services and GitOps integration. Raffael Klingler is a Platform Engineer at AXA Switzerland, where he helps development teams ship software faster and more reliably. He recently completed his Master's thesis on Internal Developer Platforms, diving deep into OAM, KubeVela, and the challenge of making application delivery less painful. When not wrangling Kubernetes manifests, he's probably thinking about how to make developers' lives easier. From Problem to Production: DevOps for AI with Kubeflow, Fabrizio Lazzaretti (Wavestone) and Marco Crisafulli (enki) Despite massive investments in AI, most enterprise AI initiatives fail to reach production — not because of model quality, but because of fragmentation among data science, platform engineering, and business teams. MLOps addresses this challenge by applying DevOps principles to machine learning, and Kubeflow has emerged as a de facto open platform for operationalizing these practices in cloud-native environments. In this talk, we explore how Kubeflow enables collaboration, automation, and repeatability across the entire ML lifecycle, from requirements gathering and experimentation to deployment and continuous improvement. Using a real end-to-end example, we’ll demonstrate how Kubeflow Pipelines, training workflows, and integration with the CNCF ecosystem help teams move beyond ad-hoc experimentation toward production-grade AI systems. Attendees will see how a vendor-neutral Kubeflow-based MLOps architecture supports multi-cloud deployments, enforces operational best practices, and creates continuous feedback loops between stakeholders. Whether you are introducing MLOps for the first time or refining an existing platform, this session provides practical insights into using Kubeflow to turn AI from a research activity into a sustainable business capability. Fabrizio Lazzaretti is a Managing Consultant at Wavestone and CNCF Ambassador who bridges cutting-edge cloud-native technologies with enterprise architecture. As maintainer of the CloudEvents Rust SDK and co-author of "Crafting Great APIs with Domain-Driven Design," he brings deep expertise in event-driven architecture and microservices to complex challenges. With over 10 years of experience in software architecture, development, and DevOps, he currently drives architectural transformation and AI initiatives across sectors, connecting business and IT through collaborative API design. Marco Crisafulli is the co-founder of enki, a Swiss machine learning company focused on training, consulting, and implementing practical ML use cases for Swiss enterprises. With a strong background in enterprise software and cloud-native infrastructure, he specializes in MLOps, Kubernetes, and production-grade ML platforms, and has deep hands-on experience with Kubeflow. He works closely with organizations to bridge the gap between experimentation and reliable ML systems in production, helping teams operationalize ML at scale. Bye-bye Ingress-NGINX, hello Gateway API The Kubernetes ecosystem is undergoing a major transformation as the legacy Ingress model, long dominated by the NGINX Ingress Controller, reaches its limits and faces discontinuation. This talk explores why the Kubernetes Gateway API is emerging as the new standard for security and architecture. We'll dive into the shortcomings of traditional Ingress (including "annotation hell" and recent security vulnerabilities) and highlight the architectural and operational advantages of Gateway API. Finally, we will present a few options on how you can move forward and implement a new solution. Urs Zurbuchen is a Senior Security Consultant at Airlock. As an engineer and consultant for the design and implementation of IT security solutions, he is familiar with the requirements for secure digitalisation processes. Urs has more than 20 years of experience in designing and integrating web application security solutions (web application firewall, authentication, single sign-on, access control) as well as in designing and implementing identity & access management projects (user management, authorisation management, processes, provisioning). Mr Zurbuchen can advise on the conception of non-technical topics such as organisation, guidelines, compliance requirements and regulations, as well as on the implementation of application and system architecture audits.

Hare (someone to set the route) is Granny Muff. Come join us! Car bag drop A to B - your bag will be at B along with some of the best Pizza in town, not far from A. **Where**: See location. ‘Hard’bridge station - car park of Restaurant Rosso. Look for English speakers wearing running gear. **When:** We'll meet at 6:50 pm to start at 7:00 pm. There's a charge of CHF 5 for participating, which covers all you can drink beer/cider (and non-alcoholic alternatives) plus snacks afterwards. **All Welcome:** If you are new, curious, and want to get out of the house, stretch your legs, talk shit, enjoy a drink, and hopefully a laugh, then here's what you need to know: • We are a social running/walking group, physical fitness is not required, but a sense of humour is useful. • The aim is to find the '*Beer Stop*' at the end of the '*trail*' and have fun. • 'True Trail' is typically 4-7 km. Some will go less (especially those walking or walk/running), and some over-achieving fast runners will go further. • The '*Hare*', which changes each event (along with location), cleverly lays the trail (typically with flour marks) so that everyone reaches the end at the same time. • There is always a place to deposit your bag and sometimes a place to change. • **After Trail**, we group for \~20-40 minutes for drinks, snacks, and some fun. This '*Circle*' is typically outside, so leave something warm in your bag in winter (and bring a flashlight when it's dark). If you don't want to stand around drinking afterwards, you can head home. We occasionally all go to a restaurant afterwards. **Why bother leaving your warm & dry sofa?** If you enjoy getting outside, being around people, and doing something a bit different, you will probably enjoy hashing. Exercise is important, and this is probably the least boring way to get it. 'Hashing' and the idea of some physical activity to work up a thirst, have been around for almost 90 years and there are groups (*Hashes*) in most major cities. Its humor and 'traditions' can be explored on the internet - **or you can just come along and find out.** *See you there.* We are of many nationalities, all ages, full of misfits and idiots (at least there is no one taking themselves seriously!) and always welcome newbies 'Virgin Hashers' and visitors from other groups.

After a long hiatus of the compiler social, Lorenzo is joining us to talk about the exciting work happening at NVIDIA that you have probably heard about, namely cuTile/TileIR. As usual there will be pizza, snacks, beer, and soft drinks after the event for participants, sponsored by NVIDIA. **Astract:** GPU programming has evolved significantly over the past decade, driven by rapid hardware innovation such as Tensor Cores and new numerical formats. However, the gap between high-level productivity frameworks and low-level performance-centric programming models continues to widen. In this talk, we introduce cuTile and TileIR, a new block-level programming model and intermediate representation designed to simplify high-performance GPU development while preserving forward compatibility with evolving NVIDIA architectures. cuTile provides a tile-centric abstraction for data-parallel workloads, accessible from Python, while TileIR—an MLIR-based low-level IR integrated with CUDA—offers a stable, portable foundation for targeting tensor cores and future hardware generations. Together, they establish a middle ground between usability and control, enabling expressive kernel development without sacrificing performance. We present the programming model, illustrate it with examples, discuss performance considerations, and, if time permits, take a deeper dive into the core abstractions behind TileIR: https://github.com/NVIDIA/cuda-tile **Location:** The event is taking place in the room G59 in the CAB building of ETH Zurich at the Zentrum campus. Enter from Universitätstrasse 6.

**INNOtalk #18** presents "**Vom Unternehmens-Pain Point zur Lösung: Abschlussarbeiten mit Business Impact mit Studyond & Kühne+Nagel**" *«Wenn Abschlussarbeiten echten Business Impact schaffen»* Jährlich entstehen rund 95’000 Abschlussarbeiten an Schweizer Hochschulen – jedes Mal mehrere Monate Forschung, Analyse und Lösungsentwicklung. Und doch bleibt der grösste Teil dieses Wissens ungenutzt. Dabei bieten Abschlussarbeiten Unternehmen einen direkten Zugang zu Top-Talenten, aktuellem Fachwissen und neuen Lösungsansätzen. Richtig aufgesetzt, werden sie zu konkreten Innovationsprojekten – ohne klassische Projektbudgets und mit minimalem Vorlauf. Der INNOtalk #18 zeigt diesen Weg anhand eines konkreten Studyond-Projekts mit Kühne + Nagel: \- wie aus einem realen Unternehmens\-Pain Point eine wirksame Abschlussarbeit entsteht – und welche Learnings andere Unternehmen daraus mitnehmen können\. Moderiert wird die Diskussion von Viktoria Mauz, Active Member der swissICT Fachgruppe Innovation. **Worum geht es im Panel konkret?** Anhand eines realen Projekts mit Kühne+Nagel diskutiert das Panel, wie verlässlich daten- und KI-gestützte Prognosen in hochdynamischen Märkten tatsächlich sind. Im Fokus steht die Frage, wo wirtschaftliche Erklärbarkeit endet und wo Prognosemodelle unter realistischen Markt- und Schockbedingungen an ihre Grenzen stossen – und welche Konsequenzen dies für unternehmerische Entscheidungen hat. **Warum sollten Sie an diesem INNOtalk teilnehmen?** * ***Abschlussarbeiten neu denken***: Warum sie ein unterschätzter Innovationshebel sind - und wie daraus echter Business-Impact entsteht. * ***KI als Enabler***: Wie Unternehmen konkrete Herausforderungen in erfolgreiche Studierendenprojekte übersetzen. * ***Innovation skalierbar machen***: Welche Rolle Plattformen wie Studyond dabei spielen, Zufall durch Struktur zu ersetzen. **REFERENT:INNEN & PANEL** **[Dr. Alexandra Allgaier](https://www.linkedin.com/in/alexandra-allgaier/)** Mitgründerin bei ***[Studyond](https://studyond.com/)*** **[Jonas Bläser](https://www.linkedin.com/in/jonasblaehser/)** Global Head of Sea Logistics Business Intelligence bei ***[Kuehne+Nagel](https://www.kuehne-nagel.com/de)*** **[Lino Reye](https://www.linkedin.com/in/lino-reye/)** Masterstudent Business Innovation, ***[Universität St. Gallen (HSG)](https://www.unisg.ch/de/)***[ ](https://www.unisg.ch/de/) **MODERATION** **[Dr. Viktoria Mauz](https://www.linkedin.com/in/viktoria-mauz/)** Active Member der ***[swissICT Fachgruppe Innovation](https://www.swissict.ch/professional-group/innovation/)*** Campus Sales Manager bei ***[Nokia](https://www.nokia.com/)*** **DETAILS** 🗓️ Datum und Uhrzeit: **Donnerstag, 12.

**mit Elana Andermatt und Andrea Bergamini** Beim Kuscheln geht es um Körperkontakt zwischen Menschen. Genauer gesagt, um entspannten, nicht erotischen Körperkontakt. Daher ist es beim Kuscheln auch nicht wichtig, ob das Gegenüber männlich, weiblich oder divers ist. Wir kultivieren beim Kuscheln absichtslose, liebevolle und nährende Berührung. Es soll möglich sein, sich fallen lassen zu können und in einem sicheren, gehaltenen Rahmen im eigenen Körper anzukommen. In verschiedenen sensitiven, achtsamen Begegnungs- und Berührungs-Übungen, bei denen wir uns auf das Berührt-Sein einlassen, werden wir miteinander vertraut. Wir können mit Nähe und Distanz experimentieren und wie es ist, sich an jemanden oder gleich zwei anzukuscheln und dann doch weiterzuziehen oder auch liegenzubleiben und den Körperkontakt zu geniessen. Die „Kuschel-Energie“, das ist der nährende, entspannte Kontakt zu anderen, ohne dass es in erotische oder sexuelle Bereiche abgleitet. Es geht um achtsame und absichtslose Berührungen und den 100%-igen Respekt deiner individuellen Grenzen! Und wenn wir dann beim Zusammenliegen immer weniger tun, sondern nur noch sind, dann kann sich das schon mal wie ein “Kuschelhimmel” anfühlen … * Die Sicherheit des klar strukturierten und geleiteten Abends und gleichzeitig die Freiräume für deine individuellen Bedürfnisse und Grenzen. * Die verschiedenen Ebenen von Kontakt und Verbindung: Berührungen, Worte, der energetische Kontakt (z.B. nur im Augenkontakt) und die Resonanz im Gruppen-Feld. * Die Stärkung von Selbstkontakt, Eigenwahrnehmung und “Gut-zu-sich-selber-sein”, denn der Kontakt zu anderen kann sich nur in dem Masse vertiefen, wie wir den Kontakt zu uns selber vertiefen können. * Die Öffnung für “die grösseren Räume”, die uns auf einer spirituellen Ebene nähren und verbinden, so dass Gefühle von Frieden und „Nach-Hause-kommen“ durch die Gemeinschaft UND durch die Verbindung zum Grösseren genährt werden. * Die ganz persönlichen Momente, in denen du ganz entspannt, offen und echt anderen herzoffenen Menschen begegnest. \*\* Wenn du JA sagst bei deiner Anmeldung, sagst du JA zu den **klaren Kuschelregeln**: * Keine Berührung im Intimbereich und an erogenen Zonen. Keine Küsschen oder Hände unter dem TShirt. Erotische Energie wird nicht angefacht. Wir bleiben auf der Ebene des brüderlichen und schwesterlichen kuscheligen Herzens. * Du kannst dein Tempo jederzeit wählen, wie schnell und nahe du mit anderen sein möchtest oder wie oft du auch Momente für dich alleine brauchst. * Ein NEIN ist ein NEIN. Achte drauf, dass du deine und andere Grenzen des Wohlbefindens respektierst. **Zeiten:** 19:30-22:00h Einlass 19 Uhr bei einer Tasse Tee An FreitagAbenden mit optionaler Verlängerung bis 23h (wer will). **WO:** JupiterSpace, SeminarPavillon vom Jupiterhaus im Frankental; Frankentalerstrasse 55, 8049 Zürich **Mitbringen** bitte bequeme Kleider, warme Socken und bei Bedarf eine verschliessbare Wasserflasche. **Ausgleich:** 30.-, oder das, was du zahlen kannst. **Infos und Anmeldung:** Elana [elana@sensual-healing.ch](mailto:elana@sensual-healing.ch), 079 437 22 22 [https://kuschel-tempel.ch](https://kuschel-tempel.ch) Wenn du regelmässig einen Reminder haben magst, kannst du dich gerne hier zum \*\*[Kuschel-Tempel-Newsletter ](https://kuschel-tempel.ch/#newsletter/)\*\*anmelden. *Sichere, wohlwollende Nähe und Körperkontakt ohne Erwartungs- und Beziehungsdruck, ist eine tief nährende Medizin für unser System.

The Humanist Monthly Program is our longest running event and still a community favorite. In the old days it used to be called "Going to HCCO" and we still like to think of it as our flagship event. Food and drinks will be provided at the event. Feel free to show up a little bit early to hang out and talk. Our March speakers are Molly Gaines and Zack Parrish, co-organizers of the Secular Education Association: They will share their story of how a small group of Ohio parents grew into a national organization tracking released-time religious instruction and other church–state issues in public schools. The presentation will cover SEA’s early wins and hard lessons, what we’re seeing nationally right now, and how local advocates can play a meaningful role in protecting public education. Attendees will leave with a clearer understanding of the landscape — and practical ways to get involved. Going forward our meetings will be hybrid.

Window functions have nothing to do with the Windows operating system but provide a “window” to a result set when used in SQL queries. They are powerful, set-based methods to view data in unexpected ways. Window functions provide easy, set-based solutions to solve some common problems: * Using running totals * Performing operations in intervals * Identifying data gaps and islands * Performing aggregates without losing detail Many people are confused by window functions and do not know how to use them properly. This session will explore window functions, how they work, and how to use them. Demonstrations with several examples will solidify how window functions can simplify queries and make them more powerful.
