Hi folks! Welcome to our March Cloud Native London meetup! Join us to hear from our three great speakers and network with your fellow techies over pizza and drinks, or alternatively chat and following along on Youtube! 6:00 Pizza and drinks 6:30 Welcome 6:45 Predictable Systems in an Unpredictable World (Behrad Babaee, Aerospike) 7:15 Observability with HAProxy: detecting what is not working and why (Baptiste Assmann, HAProxy Technologies) 7:45 Break 8:00 eBPF: Revolutionizing Cloud-Native Security (Alam Ahmed) 8:30 Wrap up See you there! Cheryl (@oicheryl) **Predictable Systems in an Unpredictable World (Behrad Babaee, Aerospike)** Modern systems are challenged by volatility. Traffic patterns shift without warning, workloads evolve continuously, and failures are no longer exceptional events. In this environment, average performance is meaningless. What matters is whether systems behave predictably when conditions change. This session explores how system design choices determine behavior under volatility. We will discuss why many modern architectures rely on fragile assumptions about steady-state workloads, cache locality, or predictable growth, and how those assumptions break down in real production environments. Through concrete examples and architectural discussion, we will examine what it means to design systems that remain predictable as load, access patterns, and scale evolve. The goal is not to showcase tools or benchmarks, but to build a shared mental model for thinking about predictability as a first-class system property. *Behrad Babaee is a software engineer who leads Product Marketing at Aerospike, shaping positioning and go-to-market strategy for real-time data systems in the AI era.* *He began his career building scalable, distributed applications for organisations including Barclays and Credit Suisse, before moving into architecture and field leadership roles at Aerospike and DataStax.* *Today, he combines deep engineering expertise with strategic product leadership, focusing on how organisations design systems that remain predictable, resilient and performant under real-world volatility.* **Observability with HAProxy: detecting what is not working and why (Baptiste Assmann, HAProxy Technologies)** Is it the network, the app, or the database? In complex microservices environments, "mean time to innocence" is a critical metric for platform engineers. HAProxy sits at the convergence of these traffic flows, providing a unique vantage point to answer the ultimate observability question: "WTF is going on?". We'll do a deep dive into the metrics that matter, so you can detect anomalies before users complain. You will learn: * The difference between monitoring and observability in a reverse proxy context. * How to access HAProxy’s detailed logs, stats, and stick-tables. * How to analyze the "life of a request" using precise timers to pinpoint latency sources. * How to use HAProxy’s observability features to fix real-world issues (demo) * How HAProxy Fusion provides centralized observability and automation for enterprise deployments at scale. *Baptiste Assmann is Director of Product at HAProxy Technlogoes. He spent his carreer on networking and high performance architecture. Today, he plays a key role on HAProxy's ecosystem evolution: from bare metal to Kubernetes and from load balancing to advanced security at scale and always looking forward for what's next!* **eBPF: Revolutionizing Cloud-Native Security (Alam Ahmed)** eBPF: Revolutionizing Cloud-Native Security from the Kernel Up Cloud-native architectures have fundamentally broken traditional security models. While 67% of organizations now delay deployments due to Kubernetes security concerns, conventional tools remain blind to the dynamic, ephemeral nature of containers—operating from the outside looking in, missing critical kernel-level threats until it's too late. This session reveals how eBPF (extended Berkeley Packet Filter) is transforming cloud-native security by moving visibility and enforcement directly into the Linux kernel. Through real-world case studies from Meta, Google, and Cloudflare—where eBPF processes billions of packets per second and mitigates multi-terabit DDoS attacks—you'll discover how this technology delivers 10x performance improvements with <1% CPU overhead. We'll explore the production-ready CNCF ecosystem (Falco, Tetragon, Cilium) and demonstrate practical security observability patterns: process execution monitoring, network correlation with Kubernetes context, file integrity tracking, and syscall anomaly detection. No kernel modules. No code changes. Complete visibility. Whether you're battling container escapes, cryptojacking, or compliance gaps, this talk provides the architectural blueprint for security that matches the speed and scale of cloud-native—without sacrificing agility. *Alam Ahmed is a Junior Cloud & DevOps Engineer with NOC operations experience and a focus on cloud security. He has spoken at Elastic London and Yorkshire DevOps on Security as Code practices, contributes to open-source projects including Envoy AI Gateway, and is passionate about kernel-level observability and cloud-native defense.* ***Check out [https://www.oicheryl.com/cloudnativelondon](https://www.oicheryl.com/cloudnativelondon) if you're interested in speaking or sponsoring.***

**The House Believes Releasing The Epstein Files Was A Mistake** **Why Are We Having This Debate?** The Epstein Files, a collection of legal documents containing every bit of information from evidence collected against the disgraced financier Epstein to the court proceedings, victims and unending list of accusations from the notorious to the unsubstantiated. The US Justice department has released these documents under the "Epstein Transparency Act" signed by President Trump but such mass releases of sensitive investigative material of what is still an ongoing set of investigations is unprecedented. Are we ready for what comes next if this trend continues or would we have been better off letting the department of justice continue it's investigations behind closed doors? So we ask - Were we ready for the Epstein Files To be released? **Articles** **[Epstein Files Rocking The UK From Palace to Parliament - CNN](https://edition.cnn.com/2026/02/02/uk/epstein-files-britain-mandelson-andrew-ferguson-intl "https://edition.cnn.com/2026/02/02/uk/epstein-files-britain-mandelson-andrew-ferguson-intl")** **[Increasing Pressure To Release the Rest of The Files - The Indipendant](https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/epstein-files-khanna-doj-bondi-b2911743.html "https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/epstein-files-khanna-doj-bondi-b2911743.html")** **[No, Don't Release The Epstein Files - Lawfare](https://www.lawfaremedia.org/article/no--don-t-release-the-epstein-files "https://www.lawfaremedia.org/article/no--don-t-release-the-epstein-files")** Come along and have your vote! **What We Do** 3v3 panel debate where our members explore the strongest arguments for a given topic. A debate should tell the audience what they need to know and not just what the speakers think. If you feel the same way, then we want to meet you. Debate London is the year-round series of free public debates held weekly at venues across the capital. The series is run by Debate London, a social enterprise that helps its members to advance their personal and professional development by teaching them how to debate. All of our speakers are [Debate London members](https://www.debate.london/plans "https://www.debate.london/plans") who have agreed to defend a particular perspective the audience need to hear, rather than just share their own personal opinion. After presenting the point of view assigned to them, the audience are then given the floor to cross-examine them and share their own position. The only time we hear what the speakers really think is at the end of the debate when they tell us where they really stand and whether this changed at all while learning how to defend the perspective assigned to them. **After Debate Social** After all of our debates we have a post debate hang-out. This is a chance for our community to get to know new people, explore new ideas and generally have more fun as a club! Come along and join us for a post-debate social! **Venue** Our venues serve drinks (alcoholic and soft drinks) as well as brilliant food. All can be ordered from the bar **Do not bring external food or drink into our venues you will be asked to throw it away or to finish it outside. - This is a venue rule which we need to follow.**

I am a native, qualified teacher of English and this is a session designed for you to go over any particular issues that you have in English - grammar, exam preparation, pronunciation, vocabulary and so on - as well as to practise your conversational skills discussing current topics. Just let me know if there is anything you would like me to cover during the session. The fee of £5 can be paid on the day in cash or in advance online. Thanks, Keith

This month we have a visiting speaker from think-cell, Sebastian Theophil, who will talk to us about error handling in C++26 (with sprinkles of C++23). We also have space for a shorter talk, or lightning talks. If you would like to speak - even for just five minutes, please drop something into cppldn.uk/speak. **think-cell** will also be supporting the group by providing pizza and drinks - thanks **think-cell**! Thanks, also, to **Maven Securities** for hosting us again, this month. **As usual we'll need your full name for the door list, so we'll be asking for this on registration** (as this may be different to your username). This data will only be used for the door list/ registration and not published anywhere or used for other purposes. If you'd like to speak at a future event please get in touch at [cppldn.uk/speak](http://cppldn.uk/speak). **Here's the approximate schedule:** **18:30** *Doors open* **19:00** "Intro and news" - *Phil Nash* **19:10** *"compile_assert - Compile time C++ assertions" - Jonathan Grant* I present compile_assert(expression, message), a new C++ keyword proposal for enforcing assertions at compile time within ordinary (non-constexpr) functions. compile_assert provides advanced asserts at compile time, not runtime. Used for bounds checking, parameter validation and data validation at compile time. All three major compilers (GCC, Clang, MSVC) are supported with a sample implementation. The example implementation does this by using GCC’s attribute error which works with Clang. **19:25** "Compile-Time Data Layout Transformation with C++26 Reflection" - *Arturs Kalnins* We’ll use C++26 static reflection and injection to convert an AoS into a SoA at compile time, live on the latest GCC, with zero macros and zero boilerplate. **19:40** *break* **20:00** "To Err is Human: Robust Error Handling in C++26" - *Sebastian Theophil* A walk through the new error handling features in C++26 — including \`std::expected\`, \`std::stacktrace\`, contracts, and more — and how they can help us write more robust, maintainable code. **21:00** *Conclusion, and moving on somewhere else* \-\-\- **About the speakers** *Sebastian* has been working at think-cell since it was founded in 2002. In the last few years, among many other things, he has ported think-cell to run on macOS.

Private Group. Closed to the Public Knowing ourselves and understanding our abilities is the first step toward wielding our gifts with control and accuracy. In subsequent classes we will verify and hone our talents with activities and discussion. These are hands-on workshops and participation is expected. The goal of our series will be to develop expertise in areas of particular interest such as mediumship, channeling, divination, healing and, etc.. Our ultimate directions will be determined by class members as we evolve. I look forward to sharing and discovering with you. - Cynthia

We'd love to have you join us. COTA bus #5 comes to W. 5th and Wyandotte Rd. And it's a minute walk to the restaurant. *** Did you know that there are atheists everywhere?!?! You may not know it, but we are! We're in your schools, diners, police force, military, government, and some are even still in your churches! So come and join us and meet other local atheists, along with agnostics, heathens, humanists, skeptics, and anyone else who's 'hell bound'!

Most people would agree that a great night's sleep is one of the sweetest experiences in life. Crawling into a wonderfully comfortable bed, drifting off to peaceful slumber, and awaking, feeling refreshed, energized, and ready for the day is a gift everyone welcomes. Unfortunately, nights of perfect sleep and restfulness can seem scarce. Particularly, during the truly hard times in life, good sleep can seem an impossibility. The ancient shepherd-crowned-king, David, knew more than the average person about the challenge of getting a good night's sleep in the midst of being falsely maligned, hunted by enemies, and attacked by those who wanted him dead. He understood the terror of running for his life, and having thousands call for his death. What was his answer? Where could a man on the run find peace? What hope was there for a person in such circumstances? David's hope and peace were found in the One Who he knew was Perfect Truth, Justice, Mercy, and Grace, the God Who had delivered His people before and Who would do so again, and again, and again. Because of God's provision David twice details that even in the midst of his enemies, he would "lie down and sleep, and wake again." Psalm 3 and 4 point us to the hope in which those who follow after the Lord can be confident--that from the Lord comes deliverance.

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.
