Cloud Native @ ING
Cloud Native @ ING
**🚀 We're thrilled to announce the next Cloud Native Meetup @ ING!** Come join us for an evening of talks, great conversations, and good food. Expect fresh insights, real-world stories, and the kind of hallway chats that spark your next big idea. **Agenda** 🕕 18\.00 — Doors open \| Food & drinks 🎤 19.00 — Welcome 🔐 19.15 — What I'll Tell My Kids About K8s Security *(Lars Lefebvre, ING)* 🚀 19.45 — K8s-wish and other LLM adventures *(Andrew Yourtchenko)* ☕ 20.15 — Break ⏳ 20.30 — Kubestronaut Panel 🤝 21.00 — Networking **Getting here** **No on site parking available**, instruction on how to get there [over here](https://drive.google.com/file/d/1FYT8vBU513koHhvOyqW8tQshbzAhlzQ_/view?usp=sharing). **If coming by car, please only refer to the public car park instructions.** Access via entrance A, then follow the signs. **Sessions:** **Session 1:** **What I'll Tell My Kids About K8s Security (Lars Lefebvre, ING):** What I'll Tell My Kids About K8s Security is a creative and story-driven talk that makes Kubernetes security approachable — even for those who aren't deep in the weeds of K8s. Framed through metaphors and everyday analogies, the talk explores complex security challenges in a fun and memorable way. In the second half, I'll share the story behind an open source tool we built at ING to help teams uncover and understand real-world security issues in their clusters. *Bio:* Lars is a dedicated Cloud and Application Security Engineer with a strong background in the Cloud Native stack. He’s experienced in managing multi-cloud environments, promoting cloud-native practices, and enhancing security measures in software development lifecycles. **Session 2:** **K8s-wish and other LLM adventures (Andrew Yourtchenko)** Can we use LLMs to avoid writing YAML? This talk explores two approaches — a single-shot LLM call and a full agentic loop — using two open source projects, and what each gets right and wrong. *Bio*: After 25 years at Cisco across three lives — TAC Security, IPv6 technical marketing, and high-performance networking software — Andrew is now building open source agentic AI tools and doing occasional consulting. He is a coauthor of DHCPv6 and other RFCs, and holds 4 US patents. **Session 3: Kubestronaut Panel** *30 minutes \| Q&A* Meet a panel of Kubestronauts, some even Golden. We'll kick off with a quick intro to what a Kubestronaut (and Golden Kubestronaut) actually is, then dive straight into an interactive Q&A. Hear about their journey, what the grind really looks like, and what they'd do differently. This session is all about the conversation. *Bio Olivier Calzi (Golden Kubestronaut):* From pulling Ethernet cables as a student in France to becoming a Golden Kubestronaut, I have spent 10 years learning the stack from the ground up. Now a Cloud Native Expert with 15 CNCF certifications, I focus on SRE and infrastructure architecture. I'm a firm believer in the "work-study" model and a lifelong student who still finds engineering deeply fun. *Bio François Duthilleul (Golden Kubestronaut):* François Duthilleul is a Principal Solutions Architect at Red Hat, leading the security domain in the EMEA Telco CoE, co-author of the OpenShift Security book, and contributing to O-RAN and Sylva standardisation. The first Belgian Golden Kubestronaut and 2025 Top SSA, he brings 15+ years of network cloudification experience — and you'll find him at rock concerts, on a road bike, or talking cloud-native over a craft beer. *Bio Evelien Schellekens (Kubestronaut):* Evelien is a Principal Solutions Architect at Elastic. She enjoys sharing knowledge through public speaking and interacting with the technical community. She’s passionate about observability and open source technologies like Kubernetes and OpenTelemetry.

Rooftop Sunset Chill– The Club
Rooftop Sunset Chill– The Club
A weekly rooftop gathering to end the day properly. 📍 Secret Rooftop by Warwick, Brussels 🕠 From 17:30 **What this is** A relaxed, social rooftop evening with a simple goal: **good conversations**, good drinks, and a sunset over Brussels. This is **not** a typical meetup where people stand around awkwardly or treat it like a low-effort dating market. ⸻ **The difference** – The host actively **introduces people** and connects the group – You won’t be left standing alone unless you want to – We keep the atmosphere **social, balanced, and respectful** ⸻ **The people** – Mix of locals and internationals – Multiple languages spoken (EN / FR / IT / ES and more) – Open-minded, curious, and social Everyone is welcome — as long as you come with the right attitude. ⸻ **The vibe** – Sunset, rooftop, clean energy 🌇 – Easy conversations, no pressure – **No creepy behavior,** no pushy dynamics This is a place to meet people naturally, not force interactions. ⸻ **Dress code** Not formal — but **make an effort**. You’re on a rooftop in the city, not at home on your couch. ⸻ **Practical** – Drinks at the bar (support the venue) – Come and leave whenever you want – Weather dependent (we adapt if needed) ⸻ **Why this works** Because the right setup + the right people = good moments without trying too hard. ⸻ Join us above the city.

Saturday Morning Coffee at 10:00 @KAWA - Galerie Bortier!
RSVP opens on 4 April 2026, 10:00 am Hi everyone, This coffee morning event is @ KAWA - Galerie Bortier! Saturday, 11 April 2026, from 10:00 - 13:00. It's limited to 65 attendees. Therefore, please, cancel if you can't join anymore. **Galerie Bortier opened its doors about a year and a half ago, and KAWA café is inside the gallery.** **The bar, however, is at the entrance of the gallery. Get your drink there, and then walk into the gallery to the café/sitting area.** Its Instagram channel: https://www.instagram.com/gallery.bortier/ https://www.instagram.com/kawaclub.bxl/ **The address is:** KAWA - Galerie Bortier Rue de la Madeleine 55 1000 Bruxelles *** 1. The **prime time** of the event is **10:30 - 12:30**. That's when most people will be there. 2. When you enter the gallery, it's either on the right-hand side or left-hand side of its hallway, depending which entrance you take. 3. If you intend **to join past 12:00** (high noon), then there is no need to register. Just come and join! 4. **DON'T forget to cancel** if you can't join! 5. **Please, be respectful towards each other during the event. (And after ;))** **As always, feel free to follow us on INSTAGRAM!** [https://instagram.com/weekendmorningcoffee?igshid=OGQ5ZDc2ODk2ZA==](https://instagram.com/weekendmorningcoffee?igshid=OGQ5ZDc2ODk2ZA==) **THE STRUCTURE of THE EVENT:** * I will post the event on Saturday/Sunday evening for the following Saturday. * I send out a reminder to everyone on Friday. * There is sometimes a waiting list. * In case RSVP is closed (once there are 10-15 people on the waiting list), I might reopen it on Friday, depending on the number of cancellations in the meantime. * **For everyone on the waiting,** please check your status and messages on Friday evening the latest. I message everyone on the waiting list on Friday. * **Please, move to "not going" AS SOON AS you know that you can't come anymore, that includes everyone who is on the waiting list.** **IMPORTANT:** * **Please, be respectful towards each other during the event. (And after ;))** * When you register yourself, be careful not to register accidentally a +1 guest (unless you bring a guest). It happens very often. * If you have any questions then, message me. *** **A MESSAGE FOR NEWCOMERS:** *In the three years of hosting this coffee group, I have met many people who struggle with anxieties when coming to an event for the first time. Sometimes, it took them more than one attempt before being able to join.* *Occasionally, people reach out to me before the event, and I have always been grateful for that as it offers the opportunity to communicate with each other and to find the best and most gentle way for that person to join the group.* *I would like to encourage everyone who struggles with this to contact me before. It would really be too bad if you can't join us, as it mostly gets better the second or third time you come.* *In addition to that, if you arrive and notice any signs of nervousness or fear, you can always let me know right then.* **THANK YOU AND SEE YOU ALL ON Saturday!**

AI is changing how art is made. But when does it stop being your work and start being the machine’s? This month we're going to be doing a panel with with digital image, music, and written word artists, talking about at what point, while using AI in the creation process, does the work become not the artist creation? We encourage audience participation during this event that will be moderated by Chris Slee. Whether you’re deep in the field or just getting curious, come connect with others building and exploring AI in Columbus.
