### **Agentic SDLC with GitHub Copilot**
Speaker: **Burak Unuvar**
This session explores how GitHub Copilot enables an agentic software development lifecycle, where software delivery tasks can be executed end to end, from issue assignment to pull request creation.
The talk will include a live demonstration of Copilot in action across multiple surfaces, including the IDE, UI, and CLI, while highlighting multi-model and multi-agent capabilities from providers such as Anthropic and OpenAI.
About **Burak**
Burak draws boxes and lines and says the word “Kubernetes” a lot. Recently, he has been prompting heavily while letting GitHub Copilot do the magic.

### **GitHub Copilot as an Incident Triage Teammate**
Speaker: **Farid Nouri Neshat**
We would all appreciate having a fast teammate who can help troubleshoot incidents and find the needle in the haystack.
This talk will demonstrate how to build your own automated agent with GitHub Copilot. The agent can be triggered by alerts, safely gather vital context from observability tools, cloud APIs, and runbooks, and then provide actionable next steps directly to your team.
About **Farid**
Farid is a freelance cloud engineer with around 15 years of combined experience. He started his journey in full-stack development with Node.js and gradually shifted toward backend engineering and AWS infrastructure.

### **Presentation From tab completion to AI workforce**
Speaker: **Radek Radosław Kowalski**
Ten months ago, when Radek and his team launched their project under a tight deadline and limited budget, it seemed nearly impossible. Fortunately, it was 2025—and agentic coding tools were ready to help.
The team embraced these tools as a lifeline, developing a workflow where engineers and AI agents built software side by side. The result: delivery ahead of schedule and within budget.
In this talk, Radek shares how the team’s approach evolved, the practical strategies they developed, and the lessons they learned to overcome constraints in time and cost.
About **Radek**
Over a 20+ year career in IT, Radek has grown from software engineer to architect to senior leader—before returning to the trenches to embrace the AI revolution and shape it firsthand. In the past year, he has helped organizations and engineering teams embed AI into both their business and daily workflows.

Azure Thursdays - May 2026
Join us for the next Azure Thursdays meetup.
On **May 7th** we are welcomed by **Sopra Steria** at their Headquarters in **Nieuwegein**.
**Confirmed speakers:**
* Wesley Camargo (Tata Consultancy Services)
* Jacco Rademaker (4Dotnet)
**Program:**
17:30 \~ 18:00 Walk-in
18:00 \~ 18:45 Dinner
18:45 \~ 19:30 First session by Wesley - Your Azure Is Wrong And I Can Prove It
19:45 \~ 20:30 Second session by Jacco - The long running battle between Azure DevOps and GitHub: finally peace?
20:30 \~ 21:00 Drinks & wrap-up
**Session 1:**
*Speaker:* Wesley Camargo
*Title:* Your Azure Is Wrong And I Can Prove It
Many Azure environments are functioning, but that doesn’t mean they are designed to scale, stay secure, or meet enterprise requirements. Short-term decisions like using Resource Groups as environments, relying on a single subscription, manual scaling, and adding governance only when problems appear often lead to fragile platforms that break under growth.
In this session, we uncover the most common Azure architectural anti-patterns and explain how the Microsoft Cloud Adoption Framework (CAF) provides a practical path from “it works” to Enterprise Ready. The focus is on the Ready, Govern, and Manage phases, where platform foundations are defined and long-term success is determined.
You’ll get a clear overview of key CAF design areas, based on real production environments, not theory:
• Identity and access
• Networking
• Governance and security
• Monitoring
• Automation
• Cost management
**Session 2:**
*Speaker:* Jacco Rademaker
*Title:* The long running battle between Azure DevOps and GitHub: finally peace?
Are you currently working with Azure DevOps, but also have an eye on GitHub for its AI features? Do you need the functionalities Azure Boards offers and would you also like to use with AI agents? Or has your organization heavily invested in Azure Pipelines, which you do not want to rebuild using GitHub Actions? And when you would move your repositories, will you still have your pull request history?
You do not have to go all-in with GitHub and leave Azure DevOps behind. Why choose, when you can combine them!
You'll learn how to connect Azure DevOps to GitHub, what features this will open up for you and what your workflow can look like.
This session will help you decide on how to move forward with your team or your whole organization!

9.5km hike from Soest-Zuid to Amersfoort CS via Soesterduinen
For our next hike we'll be following a beautiful 9.5km route starting at Soest-Zuid train station and ending at Amersfoort Central Station. On the way we'll pass by the Soesterduinen dunes and the Birkhoven forest. Will you join?
Utrecht Hiking Community aims to organise one hike per month in the Utrecht Region. Anyone is welcome to join, no matter whether you're a beginner or an experienced hiker, a local or an expat, a professional or a student, as long as you bring a good mood. We are not about fast hiking, but about social hiking: being active, exploring places, meeting like-minded people and just generally having a fun walk.
We'll be starting from Soest-Zuid train station at 10.30AM. This time we won't be following a circular route, which means we won't end at our starting point, but we'll end at Amersfoort Central Station instead. Those who want to return to Soest-Zuid station afterwards to get back to their car, can take bus 70 from Amersfoort, which is going every 15 minutes.
Please try to arrive to Soest-Zuid on time. We'll start our hike at 10.30AM and won't let the whole group wait for you in case you're arriving later. Only in case the train scheduled to arrive at 10.24AM has some delay, we'll wait for that train to arrive. If you're arriving after we have departed, you can send a message on WhatsApp to +31621177691, so we can share our location with you and you can try to catch up with us.
Soest-Zuid station has a toilet, but please don't count on it to work. When checking the route, it was closed. On the way there are no public toilets, so please use a restroom before you arrive.
The route is going over both paved and unpaved roads and we'll even be walking through the sand of the Soesterduinen dunes for a bit (not for long, as it's harder to walk through the sand than on the paths). Please wear good shoes, bring something to drink for on the way and use SPF if it'll be a sunny day
Dogs are allowed on the route, but need to be kept on a leash on parts of the route.
After the walk, those who want can join for lunch/drinks in the center of Amersfoort. This is not directly next to Amersfoort Central Station, but at a distance of another 15-20 minutes of walking.
Since we do make some costs while organising our hikes (MeetUp subscription, travel expenses), a small donation would be very much appreciated. You can do so by following this link: https://www.ing.nl/payreq/m/?trxid=s9tT34cUyD97YuSHhIYbTIqN4LfxLAn9
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.
See you on Saturday 9th of May at Soest-Zuid train station!

Building Scalable Customer Identity Resolution Pipelines on AWS Using AI
Customer identity resolution becomes increasingly complex as organizations scale across multiple systems, regions, and data formats. Traditional rule-based approaches often fail to keep up with data variability, require constant manual tuning, and struggle with real-time processing needs.
This session presents a practical approach to building a scalable identity resolution pipeline using AWS services and modern AI techniques. The architecture combines data ingestion through Amazon S3 and AWS Glue, transformation pipelines using Spark on EMR, and machine learning models deployed via SageMaker for entity matching and standardization. Graph-based relationship modeling is implemented using Amazon Neptune to improve resolution accuracy by incorporating household and shared attribute context.
We will walk through how machine learning models can be used for name and address normalization, how intelligent blocking strategies improve matching efficiency, and how feedback loops can be introduced to continuously improve accuracy. The session also highlights how serverless components such as AWS Lambda can be used for orchestration and real-time processing.
