Ti è mai capitato di avere tutto sotto controllo… e comunque non capire cosa stava succedendo? Benvenuto nel mondo moderno: microservizi, eventi, pipeline, e una valanga di dati che promettono chiarezza. Spoiler: non basta. Search, observability e open source condividono lo stesso obiettivo: trasformare dati grezzi in qualcosa che abbia senso, e il farlo mentre il sistema cambia, scala, e a volte ...si rompe. Non è (solo) una questione di tool. È capire come leggere, collegare e interpretare quello che abbiamo davanti. Da qui partiamo. ​ **Agenda** (in aggiornamento) * 18:30 – 18:45 Arrivo e Check-In * 18:45 - 19:15 **Le architetture di observability sembrano sempre perfette… finché non le metti in produzione *(Fabio Marzotti)*** * 19:15 - 19:40 **SBOM, SBAM: chi ha messo questo nel mio codice? Sicurezza della supply chain software di livello enterprise, a budget zero (Maurizio Argoneto)** * 19:45 - 20:00 **Community slot** * 20:00 - 20:30 **Networking & Q&A** * 20:30 Fine meetup **Le architetture di observability sembrano sempre perfette… finché non le metti in produzione.** *Quando i dati aumentano, i tenant si moltiplicano e ogni team ha esigenze diverse, iniziano le vere sfide: isolamento, governance, costi, affidabilità. È qui che molte architetture, anche ben progettate, possono cedere.* *In questo talk partiremo da un caso reale per vedere cosa succede dopo: come si costruisce (e si mantiene) a livello di gruppo una piattaforma di observability, basata su **OpenSearch, fork open source di Elasticsearch e Kibana**, capace di gestire cluster distribuiti, carichi eterogenei e scenari multi-tenant senza perdere controllo.* *Vedremo cosa comporta davvero uscire da **Splunk** in un contesto enterprise: non solo come migrare, ma quando ha senso farlo, quali compromessi accettare e dove si nascondono i costi reali.* *Infine, sposteremo il focus dall’infrastruttura al suo utilizzo: come rendere logs, metrics e traces parte di un sistema coerente che supporti troubleshooting, affidabilità e operatività quotidiana, non solo dashboard.* ***Fabio Marzotti - Group log management & observability@Nexi Italy*** *è un IT Manager con ampia esperienza in ambito observability, automation, telemetry, log management e data streaming. Esperto nella progettazione e gestione di piattaforme di enterprise monitoring, con una solida background in system architecture e operations in contesti finanziari su larga scala.* **SBOM, SBAM: chi ha messo questo nel mio codice? Sicurezza della supply chain software di livello enterprise, a budget zero.** *Il software moderno non viene più solo scritto: viene assemblato. Quasi il 90% di una tipica applicazione è composto da librerie di terze parti. Se domani venisse resa pubblica una vulnerabilità critica come Log4Shell, quanto tempo impiegherebbe il tuo team a identificare tutti i microservizi impattati?* *Mentre le grandi aziende si affidano spesso a costose licenze “Ultimate”, PMI, team indipendenti e realtà con budget limitati rischiano di trovarsi esposti a un pericoloso gap di sicurezza.* *In questa sessione esploreremo come democratizzare la **Software Supply Chain Security** costruendo un perimetro di difesa automatizzato senza costi di licenza.* *Attraverso **una demo basata su un prototipo Docker,** analizzeremo un’architettura concreta che integra:* * ***GitLab Community Edition*** *per l’orchestrazione delle pipeline;* * ***Trivy*** *e **cdxgen** per la generazione automatica di SBOM, **Software Bill of Materials**, in formato **CycloneDX**;* * ***OWASP Dependency-Track*** *per il monitoraggio continuo e proattivo delle vulnerabilità.* *Andremo oltre il semplice vulnerability scanning, mostrando come **sfruttare l’intelligenza artificiale per l’analisi della raggiungibilità del codice** e per generare file **VEX**, **Vulnerability Exploitability eXchange**, utili a ridurre i falsi positivi e concentrare l’attenzione solo sui rischi realmente azionabili.* *Infine, discuteremo come questo stack possa aiutare le organizzazioni a prepararsi ai requisiti del prossimo **EU Cyber Resilience Act**, CRA.* **Maurizio Argoneto: AWS Hero \| CTO/Solution Architect \| Community Lead \(AWS\, GDG\, PLUG\) \| Co\-founder of 'Come To Code'** Maurizio promuove da oltre dieci anni cultura Open Source, community tech e innovazione digitale nei territori. Il suo lavoro unisce competenze cloud, architetturali e community leadership, con l’obiettivo di rendere l’innovazione accessibile anche fuori dai grandi hub tecnologici. C'è sempre nei nostri incontri un **community slot**, uno spazio dedicato agli interventi della community per raccontare un problema risolto in produzione, portare un tema tecnico su cui stai lavorando oppure condividere una domanda architetturale da discutere insieme. E, come in ogni meetup che vuole diventare una community vera, c'è spazio ampio per **Q&A, confronto aperto e networking**: perché spesso le soluzioni migliori nascono proprio dalle conversazioni informali tra persone che affrontano sfide simili. Sei benvenuta/io anche se non hai mai usato OpenSearch! Ti aspettiamo! **Call for Speakers ([Sessionize](https://sessionize.com/opensearch-milan-rome-usergroup-meetup/)\): candidati\|** **Seguici anche su LinkedIn: [link](https://www.linkedin.com/company/opensearchproject-rome-milan-usergroup/)** Siamo una community ufficiale OpenSearch Project, Il meetup è realizzato grazie al supporto dei community partner \- Seacom SB: contribuisce con competenze\, food e gadget \- Milano Luiss Hub: offre la location per il nostro meetup L’evento si svolge in uno spazio sicuro e inclusivo, in linea con i valori di rispetto e collaborazione della comunità OpenSource. Tutte le partecipanti e i partecipanti sono invitate/invitati a consultare e rispettare il **Code of Conduct della OpenSearch Foundation** per garantire un ambiente accogliente e libero da comportamenti non appropriati. In caso di disagio o comportamenti inappropriati, contattate le persone organizzatrici o referenti indicati. **Code of Conduct della OpenSearch Foundation**: [LINK](https://opensearch.org/code-of-conduct/)

American Idiot is a hilarious, high-energy journey through the mind of an American living in Europe. More specifically, through the mind of an American Idiot. In this self-deprecating, chaotic, and completely unfiltered comedy showcase, Edy takes the audience on a wild ride through his personal experience of life in Italy, cultural misunderstandings, the madness of the modern world, and the deeply questionable decisions that have shaped his love life, work life, and family life. Nothing is off limits. Not even his dignity. With sharp social commentary, manic storytelling, and a brutally honest look at the American experience abroad, American Idiot is both introspective and absurd, personal and universal, concerning and hilarious. Edy “U-The-Man” has performed in cities across Europe, including Barcelona, Madrid, Lisbon, Paris, Malta, Berlin, and several cities throughout Italy. As the organizer and MC of Divine Comedy Club Milano, he has helped build one of Milan’s first English-language comedy clubs, bringing together local and international comedians in the city’s growing stand-up scene.

Join us as we get together to see Paul Rudd in the latest comedy-drama-musical from John Carney, POWER BALLAD! The film follows a washed-up wedding singer, a fading boy band singer and a stolen hit song. Here’s a description, trailer and plan for this event: DESCRIPTION: Rick, a washed-up wedding singer, and Danny, a fading boy band star, bond over music and a late-night jam session. When Danny turns Rick's song into a hit, Rick sets out to reclaim the recognition he believes he deserves. Power Ballad is written/directed by John Carney, the master of the modern musical and creative mind behind Once, Begin Again and Sing Street! It stars Paul Rudd, Nick Jonas, Peter McDonald, Marcella Plunkett, Havana Rose Liu and Jack Reynor. BUZZ & ACCLAIM: The film premiered to rave reviews at this year’s Dublin International Film Festival where critics call it “a sure-fired crowd-pleaser” that “just might be the feel-good hit of the year!” Others say, “Paul Rudd delivers a career-best performance in this charmer” that’s both “hilarious and deeply moving!” SUMMER OF ICE CREAM, VOL 2: SHAKE NO. 8!

This is an in-person meeting. At this meeting you will get answers to depression and anxiety. Find out the source of them and how to get rid of them. Did you know that unwanted emotions like anxiety, depression, unhappiness, loneliness, hopelessness, anger, fear, or feelings of irritation don’t just fall on you for no reason. They are not random occurrences that simply happen to people's minds. They are definitely not due to a chemical imbalance in your brain from some nebulous chemical reaction "by chance". Your negative emotions are the symptoms of the painful experiences that you have which are not healed, and which are still affecting you. The effects of these painful experiences are exacerbated by the pressures or difficulties of the other problems in your life. Come to our Meetup, where we can introduce you to some of the knowledge, tools and techniques of the breakthroughs in the field of the mind that we can apply to this ever important area of life. Be sure to click on the red "Attend" button below to come to this local event. We look forward to seeing you there. This group is created by the Hubbard Dianetics Foundation of Central Ohio and Church of Scientology of Central Ohio.
