Live event streams are handled using KQL/Eventhouse, enabling low‑latency dashboards and operational insights with minimal processing overhead. In parallel, near real‑time and batch data is processed using governed, lightweight Fabric patterns designed for efficiency and scale. The outcome is a single, capacity‑aware Fabric platform where real‑time and analytical workloads coexist cleanly, with Power BI as the unified consumption layer. **About The Speaker** Arjun Shankar has over a decade of experience turning data challenges into scalable, cloud-first platforms that drive real business decisions. He has worked across banking, finance, transport, insurance, and energy, specialising in the Azure stack: Synapse, Data Factory, Databricks, PySpark, and Fabric. From reducing platform costs, to accelerating delivery, and putting self-service analytics in the hands of the people who need it. Outside work, he's usually out on a trail, training for his next marathon, or keeping up with two young boys. We’re excited to bring the Data Engineering Melbourne Meetup group together for an evening with Arjun and his insights!

Located on Station Street in Fairfield, Narai Classic Thai Restaurant is a vibrant spot that perfectly blends tradition with innovation. Try their signature dishes like the special Thai noodle dish, red duck curry, and a delightful whole fish dish, all crafted with fresh ingredients. It's pretty reasonably priced in a great area. Why not come down and join us for some food and conversation. If you haven't been before, don't be shy. Still not sure? Why not check out their menu. https://www.canva.com/design/DAGzFmLIkS4/A7_q-xhXSs3zvhm5udmbeQ/view?utm_content=DAGzFmLIkS4&utm_campaign=designshare&utm_medium=link2&utm_source=uniquelinks&utlId=h6c983791ce#1 A $20 non refundable deposit is required for this event and will be refunded on the night. The deposit will be required 48 hours from RSVPing to the event or you will be moved removed from the event. Please make payment to the following account only if you are on the going list. Please note the new bank details. BSB 013125 Account 150808654 Please let me know once payment is made. PLEASE USE YOUR NAME AND VENUE AS YOUR REFERENCE. Please only RSVP to an event if you fully intend to show. Pulling out of a dinner or another booked event (with a venue) on the day is a kick in the teeth for both the venue and the organiser. I understand there are instances where this is unavoidable, but you are short changing the venue on the revenue they are reliant upon, especially when it comes to paying their staff. It may be too late to rebook those tables with other patrons. Not to mention the stress this puts the organisers under. Please be considerate.

Join me for an evening of live classical music at Hamer Hall as the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra performs Jaime conducts Dvořák, Smetana & Coll. We’ll meet outside Hamer Hall first, say hello, then head in together for the 6:45pm pre-concert talk in the Hamer Hall Stalls Foyer before the 7:30pm concert. The program includes Smetana’s Vltava, Francisco Coll’s Piano Concerto, and Dvořák’s Symphony No. 7. MSO lists Francisco Coll’s Piano Concerto as the Australian premiere of an MSO co-commission. The performance duration is listed as approximately 1 hour and 45 minutes, including a 20-minute interval. This will be a relaxed, low-pressure meetup for anyone interested in orchestral music, whether you already attend classical concerts or just feel like trying something different. You’re very welcome to come solo. We’ll meet before the talk so people do not have to arrive alone, and after the concert we can optionally grab dinner nearby if anyone is interested. **Links** Meetup start point: [https://maps.app.goo.gl/xjaqi6gBm3z7q8ai7](https://maps.app.goo.gl/xjaqi6gBm3z7q8ai7) Event: [https://www.mso.com.au/performance/2026-jaime-conducts-dvorak-smetana-coll](https://www.mso.com.au/performance/2026-jaime-conducts-dvorak-smetana-coll) Please check your eligibility for the promo code here: [https://www.mso.com.au/first-look-seats/first-look-seats-faqs](https://www.mso.com.au/first-look-seats/first-look-seats-faqs) **Rough timeline** 6:20pm — Meet outside Hamer Hall 6:45pm — Attend the pre-concert talk in the Hamer Hall Stalls Foyer 7:30pm — Concert begins Interval — Short break 9:15pm — Concert finishes and meetup wraps up Afterwards — Optional dinner nearby if people are interested **Tickets** You’ll need to purchase your own ticket for the concert. I’ve already bought mine. My seat is Stall R35, and I purchased it for $23 using the FIRSTLOOK promo code, though prices, promo eligibility, and availability may vary depending on what is still available. Please check your own eligibility before using the promo code. MSO’s First Look Seats page says these tickets are for first-time MSO attendees, with limited allocations and conditions. **What to bring** * Your concert ticket * Anything you need for the evening * Optional: money/card for dinner afterwards **Important notes** Please arrive on time if you want to join the pre-concert talk with the group. If you are running late, you can still attend the concert independently, but it may be harder to meet once we have gone inside. Everyone is responsible for buying their own ticket. Seating may be separate depending on what tickets are still available. You’re welcome to leave straight after the concert. Dinner afterwards is optional and will depend on who is interested on the night. **Other info** This is a social meetup, not a formal music lecture or guided event. The main idea is to enjoy the concert together in a relaxed way and make it easier for people to attend live classical music without feeling like they have to go alone.

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." The film continues John Carney’s “long run of success with yet another charmer” and “a sharp, hopeful crowd-pleaser that strikes the right notes!” SUMMER OF ICE CREAM, VOL 2: SHAKE NO. 8! Ranked the #1 Ice Cream Shop in Columbus, this is a perfect early stop on our Summer of Ice Cream!
