Monday is Montjuic ! Time update 19h30
Let's back to run !
We will meet by the Magic Fountain (Font Magica de Montjuic ([https://goo.gl/maps/RWPuTcn8htM2](https://goo.gl/maps/RWPuTcn8htM2))) - Plaça de Carles Buïgas at the end of the first stairs - just 2 minutes walking from placa Espana towards Museu Nacional d'Art de Catalunya.
We'll decide the route on the day.. or just follow Olivier... ;)
We'll meet at 7:30pm but we'll start running at 7:35pm. Please be on time.
Normally we do about 8-10kms in an hour during which we climb to the castle at the top of Montjuic. The accumulated elevation is about 300m depending on the route.
Note that this is *NOT* a beginner's run. It can be quite challenging. We recommend that you only join this run if, on a flat course, you can do 10km in 50mins or less or really like running up hill! If not it might be better to first start with one of the beach runs on Tuesday or Thursday.
Starting from October it is getting dark pretty early and not all the streets of the route have lights. If you have a headlamp please bring it with you but it is not mandotory.
Let´s do the entire route together and after the training we can go as usual for a fresh drink at a bar nearby
De vuelta en el Montjuic !
Quedamos en la Plaça de Carles Buïgas (donde está la Font Magica de Montjuic), exactamente aquí ([https://goo.gl/maps/RWPuTcn8htM2](https://goo.gl/maps/RWPuTcn8htM2)), al lado de la barandilla que está al final de las primeras escaleras. Si vienes desde plaça Espanya, son 2 minutos caminando en dirección al Museu Nacional d'Art de Catalunya.
Cada lunes hacemos un recorrido distinto por Montjuic que decidimos en el mismo día… o sencillamente seguimos a Olivier… ;)
Nos encontramos a las 7:30, y empezamos a correr a las 7:35.
Normalmente hacemos más o menos 8-10 km en una hora, subiendo hasta el castillo en la cima de Montjuic, con un desnivel positivo total de cerca de 300 metros.
Es un entrenamiento exigente aunque accesible si ya tienes algo de experiencia corriendo. No está hecho para debutante. Por favor apúntate solo si puedes correr 10km en 50 minutos mas o menos.
De octubre a mayo el recorrido es de noche por lo que es recomendable llevar frontal, aunque si no tienes, no hace falta.
Realizamos todo el recorrido juntos y después del entreno solemos ir a tomar algo a un bar cercano.

EXPOSICIÓN: "LOS NABÍS", visita comentada en La Pedrera
La propuesta de esta actividad es participar en una visita comentada de la exposición *“Los Nabís: de Bonnard a Vuillard”* que se celebra en la sala de exposiciones de La Pedrera.
Los Nabís fue un grupo de artistas franceses que emergió a finales del siglo XIX bajo la influencia de la pintura de Paul Gauguin y el arte japonés.
El grupo reunió a más de una docena de artistas de personalidad diversa, pero con intereses comunes, como la dimensión simbólica y emocional de la pintura, o el interés por las formas depuradas, los colores intensos y la exploración de la superficie plana del espacio plástico.
La exposición es una oportunidad de conocer con detalle a este grupo singular de creadores que se autoafirmaron como “los profetas” del nuevo arte, y que históricamente se sitúan en la transición entre el impresionismo y las primeras vanguardias históricas.
La muestra reúne cerca de 200 piezas de artistas como Paul Sérusier, Pierre Bonnard, Édouard Vuillard, Jan Verkade, Élie Ranson, Maurice Denis, Félix Vallotton o el escultor rosellonés Aristide Maillol.
La exposición está comisariada por la historiadora de arte Isabelle Cahn, especializada en Los Nabís y conservadora del Musée d’ Orsay, museo que ha colaborado en el proyecto que se presenta en La Pedrera de Antoni Gaudí.
La actividad tiene un costo de 16 euros que incluyen la entrada a la exposición y la visita comentada.

[Únete a nuestro grupo de Whatsapp](https://chat.whatsapp.com/DUg0NDBb4IhG50CVm9gDiW?mode=gi_t) Evento mejorado de las Imágenes de la discordia con vuestras sugerencias, y con nuevas e impactantes imágenes.
**¿Estás preparado para tomar partido… o quedarte al margen?**
**Descripción del evento:**
Llega una experiencia que no te dejará indiferente.
Un evento donde nada es predecible y todo puede cambiar en cuestión de segundos. Donde una simple imagen **puede desatar el caos, dividir opiniones y revelar mucho más** de lo que imaginas.
Aquí, cada momento comienza igual…
Se destapa una imagen.
Pero no es cualquier imagen.
Es una imagen impactante. Incómoda. Provocadora.
Y, sin darte cuenta, ya estás dentro.
Te verás arrastrado a situaciones inesperadas, adoptando distintos roles, poniéndote en la piel de protagonistas que jamás pensaste interpretar. Cada escena abre un nuevo escenario, una nueva tensión, una nueva historia.
Surgen bandos. Siempre surgen.
Algunos lo tienen claro desde el primer segundo. Otros dudan. Observan. Analizan.
¿Y tú?
Podrás posicionarte. Defender. Cuestionar.
O simplemente mirar… mientras todo arde a tu alrededor.
Chismes que no esperabas.
Debates intensos por lo absurdo… o por lo profundamente real.
Risas, tensión, complicidad y sorpresa constante.
Nada está guionizado.
Todo se construye en el momento.

DevOps BCN Meetup - May 2026
**Hello, fellow DevOps enthusiasts 🤓**
On **May 7th**, we'll meet again for a couple of insightful talks, hosted by **[Dynatrace](https://www.dynatrace.com/)**!
📍**Location**: Avda Diagonal 211 \- 14th floor\, Torre Glòries\, Barcelona \| [https://maps.app.goo.gl/22q31ECkaW7BzDMD8](https://maps.app.goo.gl/22q31ECkaW7BzDMD8)
\-\-\-\-\-\-
📅 **Agenda**
* **18:30 - 18:40** Welcome from the hosts
* **18:45 - 19:30** "The microservices kool-aid and what that means for SREs"
* **19:30 - 20:15** "Observability in the AI-Native DevOps Age"
* **20:15 - 21:00** Networking & Snacks
\-\-\-\-\-\-
**🎤 Talks & Speakers**
* **Title: "The microservices kool-aid and what that means for SREs"**
* **Speaker**: [Csaba Almási](https://www.linkedin.com/in/csaba-almasi/) - *Staff Platform Engineer at [Neonomics](https://www.neonomics.io/).*
* **Duration**: 30-45 mins
* **Abstract**: For years, the industry has treated microservices as the default architecture for any scaling project, but for SREs, this "Kool-Aid" often comes with a bitter aftertaste. This session moves past the hype to examine the true operational tax of service proliferation, specifically focusing on how fragmented architectures drive up observability costs and create silent performance bottlenecks through network overhead and resource contention. We will dive deep into the technical signals that reveal a "distributed monolith"—a system that shares the complexity of microservices but retains the rigid coupling of a legacy app—and provide a rubric for identifying when an architecture has become more of a liability than an asset.
Beyond the theory, we’ll explore practical guidelines for determining when to actually decompose a monolith and, perhaps more importantly, when to move in the opposite direction. Using real-world examples from the field, we will walk through the architecture and design decisions behind both successful service extractions and strategic consolidations of over-engineered distributed systems. You’ll walk away with a framework for balancing technical depth with operational sanity, ensuring your architecture evolves based on performance data rather than industry trends.
* **About**: Csaba Almási is a Staff Infrastructure Engineer at Neonomics, where he focuses on building reliable platforms and maximizing the business impact of observability. With extensive experience in SRE and distributed systems, he specializes in bridging the gap between technical architecture and operational efficiency in the fintech sector.
\-\-\-\-\-\-
* **Title: "Observability in the AI-Native DevOps Age"**
* **Speaker**: [Andreas (Andi) Grabner](https://www.linkedin.com/in/grabnerandi/) - *CNCF Ambassador, Book Co-Author, and Fellow DevRel at [Dynatrace](https://www.dynatrace.com/)*
* **Duration**: 30-45 mins
* **Abstract**: *AI is here to stay!*
*The question is: How to make it an efficient DevOps partner for the human to build, test and operate software?*
The answer is simple: Just like humans, the AI can use observability to understand and optimize the impact of generated and deployed code and configuration.
In this talk you learn the path through three important lessons on how observability as you know it is changing to become useful for the Human and the AI as we enter the AI-Native Age.
**1.** **The Observability Primer**: “What’s different in observing an app, an AI or a workflow?"
**2.** **The AI Delivery Lifecycle**: “How can my AI becomes better with observability?”
**3\. Cost and Impact**: “How can we speed up while staying within budget?”
You will walk away and know how to best apply open standards like OpenTelemetry and OpenLLMetry to get insights and optimize your own usage of AI. Whether its for coding, automation or to provide it as a business feature!
* **About**: Andreas Grabner has 20+ years of experience as a software developer, tester, and architect, and is an advocate for high-performing cloud-scale applications. He is a CNCF ambassador, a contributor to the CNCF project keptn, a Co-Author of Platform Engineering for Architects, and a Fellow DevRel at Dynatrace.
Andreas is also a regular contributor to the DevOps, Platform Engineering, and Cloud Native communities and a frequent speaker at technology conferences.
In his spare time, you can most likely find him on one of the salsa dancefloors of the world!

CBusData - Practical AI for Power BI Developers
Practical AI for Power BI Developers
A year ago, “agentic AI” was mostly hype for Power BI teams. Today, it deserves your undivided attention. For Power BI pros, there is now a real opportunity to reduce repetitive development work, accelerate delivery, and help developers do more, but only when strong DataOps practices are in place to make AI workflows effective.
This session is a no-nonsense introduction to effective AI patterns for Power BI and Fabric development. Along the way, we will make sense of the growing pile of terminology, including skills, plugins, hooks, and MCP. You will see examples of how modern AI tooling can help with development tasks across Power BI and Fabric, along with the prerequisites, guardrails, and DataOps principles needed to use it responsibly.
Whether you're burned out on AI hype or already using Copilot CLI daily, this session will show you the foundations that are finally making AI-assisted development genuinely useful.

Session Abstract
### Data Cleansing using Data Bricks
Machine Learning is highly dependent on adequate data. Not only does quantity matter, but more importantly quality. In this session we’ll cover how to build a custom automated process using Data Bricks. This will provide methods for cleaning data in a data lake using functions in Azure.
\*Please note, that we will be using Microsoft Teams for the online portion of this meeting. You may want to join a few minutes early to ensure you do not have any issues. If you are attending in person, there are large TVs at the office, and you do not need to bring a laptop or use Teams.
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.
