Data Center and Operations Automation

**Hello, fellow DevOps enthusiasts 🤓** On **February 19th**, we'll meet again for a couple of insightful talks, hosted by **[Allianz Technology Spain](https://tech.allianz.com/)**! 📍**Location**: Avda Icària 199\, Barcelona \| [https://maps.app.goo.gl/sijgHEbtZC9yEx1b6](https://maps.app.goo.gl/sijgHEbtZC9yEx1b6) \-\-\-\-\-\- 📅 **Agenda** * **18:30 - 18:40** Welcome from the hosts * **18:45 - 19:30** Beyond Docker Builds: Declarative, Reproducible and Secure OCI Containers with Nix * **19:30 - 20:15** How to operate and scale 72 Kubernetes clusters in 12 regions worldwide * **20:15 - 21:00** Networking & Snacks \-\-\-\-\-\- **🎤 Talks & Speakers** * **Title: Beyond Docker Builds: Declarative, Reproducible and Secure OCI Containers with Nix** * **Speaker**: [Arik Grahl](https://www.linkedin.com/in/arikgrahl/) - *Senior Software Engineer at [SysEleven GmbH](https://www.syseleven.de)* * **Duration**: 30-45 mins * **Abstract**: The Open Container Initiative (OCI) standardized the foundation of cloud-native infrastructure. However, most build systems lack determinism due to network access during builds, leading to non-reproducible artifacts and complicating software supply chain security (SSCS). While OCI supports layering for storage and cache efficiency, reflecting shared dependencies across artifacts remains complex. Nix, as a package manager, enables declarative and reproducible builds in hermetic, network-isolated sandboxes, requiring all dependencies to be specified up front for long-term reproducibility. Dependencies are treated as first-class citizens, making it easy to generate accurate Software Bill of Materials. With dockerTools in the Nix standard library, these benefits reach the OCI ecosystem. This talk highlights the advantages of fully declarative, reproducible OCI builds with Nix, offering deep insights and benefits to SSCS. Let’s not just build containers, let’s declare them reproducibly! * **About**: Arik Grahl is a Senior Software Engineer living between Berlin and Barcelona having more than 13 years of experience in full-stack development and operation of infrastructure on bare metal. At the moment he mainly develops Golang applications close to Kubernetes and the broader cloud native ecosystem. Furthermore, he is excited about everything evolving around Nix(OS) and enjoy contributing to Nixpkgs. *** * **Title: How to operate and scale 72 Kubernetes clusters in 12 regions worldwide** * **Speaker**: [Josef Rosel](https://www.linkedin.com/in/josef-christoph-rosel/) - *Senior Cloud Engineer at [Dynatrace](https://www.dynatrace.com)* * **Duration**: 30-45 mins * **Abstract**: Managing global infrastructure across multiple cloud providers is complex, requiring robust architecture and automation. This session explores proven strategies and tools (OpenTofu, ArgoCD, ArgoWF, Helm, Renovate) for operating large-scale multi-cloud environments, including Kubernetes orchestration, GitOps-driven workflows, and automated dependency management. * **About**: Josef Rosel is in DevOps for over a decade, originally from Austria and in Barcelona for two years. Started out with Docker, Mesos, Ansible in a private OpenStack, went over to Azure Devops and RKE to end up in Dynatrace working on both internal, build, test and product clusters. \-\-\-\-\-\- 🔑 **Important Access Note** Our host requires the attendees to provide their ID to grant us access to their offices. **Do not forget to fill in the "NIF - NIE - Passport" field** when registering!

**Volvemos con El Futuro (Im)posible: Una serie animada sobre los problemas y soluciones que definen nuestro futuro.** Mientras nuestras series y películas de ciencia ficción nos entretienen con relatos apocalípticos muchos de los chichés del Sci Fi, (los mundos desertificados, inundados, manejados por tecno-corporaciones e inteligencias artificiales) pareciera que tenemos que elegir entre el colapso económico o el ecológico, como si no hubiese manera de generar puestos de trabajo y redistribuir riqueza sin destruir el planeta. **Por suerte existen miles de movimientos que trabajan para construir otro futuro posible.** Las economías locales, circulares y del bien común, el diseño regenerativo, los biomateriales, la permacultura, los códigos libres y abiertos, la democracia participativa, son algunas de las muchas ideas y herramientas que tenemos para diseñar alternativas. **Esta es la historia de algunas de las personas y los movimientos inspiradores que trabajan día a día para construir un futuro regenerativo, alimentando a un mundo hambriento, empleando millones de personas, redistribuyendo la riqueza y sanando los ecosistemas en el camino.** **Los capítulos buscan concientizar y poner en movimiento al espectador hacia futuros posibles.** **Os invitamos este 19 de Febrero a las 18.30h :** \- 18\.30h se abren puertas \+ introducción al evento \- 18\.45h proyección de la serie \(3 capítulos\) \- 19\.15h Discusión & Brainstorming \(grupos\) 💡 Cómo va a funcionar la sesión de brainstorming? Tendremos palabras clave por tema de la serie (permacultura, gobernanza, biomateriales, economía circular, blockchain, etc.) Podrás identificar personas con intereses similares y formar grupos El objetivo: salir con soluciones concretas o ideas que puedan madurar y/ o personas con quienes realmente conectes :) La proyección y moderación será en castellano. La proyección tiene subtítulos en inglés, importante! Registro en Meetup para el acceso. Os esperamos para seguir creando futuros posibles :)

**Abstract:** The Advanced Photon Source (APS) is an X-ray light source at Argonne National Laboratory where researchers perform imaging, diffraction and spectroscopy experiments at 68 specialized beamlines. APS recently completed a major upgrade that made it the brightest synchrotron in the world and upgraded many of the beamlines to take advantage of the dramatically brighter, more coherent beam. These new capabilities are increasing the facility’s raw data production from <10 PB/year before the upgrade to >100 PB/year once all instruments are back online. To meet this data challenge, the APS Beamline Data Pipeline project team is partnering with beamline staff to develop and deploy science data pipelines that use a common set of open-source software tools (many written in Python) to link instruments with the Polaris supercomputer at the Argonne Leadership Computing Facility (ALCF) for data processing. This talk will describe the APS data systems, our file-based and streaming pipeline templates, and some of the open-source software we use to extract scientific insights from beamline data. **Audience Takeaway:** Open source Python data acquisition and analysis tools are ubiquitous at the APS. Many of the packages that are mentioned can be found at [https://github.com/AdvancedPhotonSource](https://github.com/AdvancedPhotonSource). This is a *hybrid* event.

"The Python library `dlt` provides a powerful [REST API toolkit](https://dlthub.com/docs/dlt-ecosystem/verified-sources/rest_api/basic) to ingest data. Combined with our [LLM scaffolds](https://dlthub.com/workspace) and [MCP server](https://dlthub.com/docs/hub/features/mcp-server), you can build a custom connector for any of the 8k+ available sources in 10 minutes by following this guide. Building with LLMs is an iterative process. We will follow this general workflow and give practical tips for each step." See Our [Parking Map](https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1u2A4fLNlxwLJn0KA_hKc8bnFlFHLvsHBDh-_8wzX_tk/edit?usp=sharing) We meet on the last Monday of each Month. Presentations are given by members and friends of this group. If you would like to do a presentation (small or large) on a python topic, please contact centralohpython@gmail.com
