How can you benefit from this in your own environment? The immutability requires you to think differently when it comes to updates and organization of your applications. In this session we will show how bootable containers work and what to be aware of. Talk 2: **We Broke Free From Cloud-Managed Kubernetes: Now What?** Speaker: Kārlis Akots Gribulis and Per Hedegaard Christiansen from Saxo Bank Have you ever wondered what happens after moving from cloud-managed Kubernetes to self-hosted clusters? One year into Saxo Bank’s journey, we’re sharing the full story: what worked, what surprised us, and what we would do differently.

Join us for a cosy artsy evening, where I'll take you through the process of making botanical cyanotype prints.

It is easy, less toxic and less expensive than most other photographic print-making techniques.
The workshop requires no prior experience and I will provide all necessary materials for you to make two A5-sized prints. Nb! Please be aware that the app might lead you to the wrong address. The correct address is Glasvej 3, 1st floor (Studio NV) **Les Amis** is a women-only community of friendly souls.
