A special edition meetup with a very special guest! International speaker Daniel Afonso will talk about the Framework wars and what he learned from them! Don't miss out! 🚀 ────────── **18:30: Welcome** **18:45 Intro by Host Neciu Dan** **19:00 React-Driven Development: Career Lessons from the Framework Wars** Speaker: Daniel Afonso, Senior Developer Advocate at PagerDuty "No one uses what I built!" "Why can't I get support to do this?" "I don't even know why we're using that?" "Why am I always the one doing everything?" Sound familiar? The truth is, friction is ever-present in our careers — in our influence, processes, relationships, and even the code we ship. But we're rarely taught how to handle it. Here's the fun fact: React's history is full of lessons in dealing with friction. From the early skepticism around JSX and the Virtual DOM to the chaos of Server Components, the React team has navigated many friction points you'll face: skeptical stakeholders, unclear messaging, delayed initiatives, and the challenge of getting buy-in. So let's recap the highlights since its birth to the latest release, understand what React got right (and wrong), and extract practical takeaways you can apply to your career, team, and developer experience initiatives. Whether you're leading a team, building internal tools, or advocating for a technical decision, you'll leave with concrete strategies for driving change, building trust, and shipping initiatives that actually get adopted. **20:00: Drinks and networking!** Do you want to talk at this meetup?

Mi pasión por el básquet no se detuvo aquí, así que después de 8 años como jugador federado, quise ver el básquet desde otro prisma. Este, me llevo a trabajar de forma autónoma como arbitro en la Federación Catalana por mas de 4 años sobre las distintas regiones de Catalunya. Ahora, como profesional de la salud y el deporte con mas de 13 años de experiencia en el sector y tras mi regreso a Barcelona después de estudiar un postgrado de entrenamiento de alto rendimiento, crear esta escuela de básquet junto Alexis, es uno de los proyectos mas emocionante que he tengo en mi ciudad natal.

**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.

**CICLE PRESENT I FUTUR DE L’HOSPITALET** El diumenge 23 de maig de 2027 es celebraran les eleccions municipals. Els ciutadans i les ciutadanes de L’Hospitalet decidirem, amb el nostre vot, la composició del consistori en el període 2027-2031. A un any vista dels comicis, sembla bon moment per reflexionar, de forma pausada i dialogant, sobre quin és l’estat de la ciutat en aquests moments. Al llarg de cinc sessions raonarem i dialogarem sobre els punts febles i els punts forts de la nostra ciutat, així com dels reptes que tenim en el futur i que s’hauran d’afrontar. I volem fer-ho, com sempre fem a Espai de Reflexió, des de l’exposició raonada i el diàleg constructiu. Dedicarem cinc sessions a la discussió de diferents punts de vista amb la presència dels partits polítics: PSC, ERC-EUIA, PP i ECP-ECG. A més, iniciarem el cicle amb el portaveu d’Espai de Ciutadania, que és un punt de trobada de 55 entitats que, de forma transversal, treballen la defensa de valors com ara l’Estat del Benestar o les llibertats. Creiem que obrir un debat constructiu i plural ha de servir per analitzar la nostra realitat amb la finalitat de trobar pautes i proposicions de futur que millorin la nostra ciutat. Participa, reflexiona i debat amb nosaltres en aquest cicle!

🚀 Hey, everyone! The **largest English-speaking tech & business community from Andalucía** is now coming to Barcelona! What started as a bi-weekly morning coffee uniting like-minded entrepreneurial minds in Málaga ☕️ is expanding — and we’re bringing that same raw energy, openness, and connection to Barcelona. As always, there’s no formal agenda or moderation — just real, unfiltered conversations in English (and a bit of Spanish) 🗣️ Our focus remains the same: cultivating meaningful relationships, creating space to exchange ideas, share journeys, and learn from others building in the startup ecosystem 👥 It’s the perfect environment to test ideas, form new alliances, and spark unexpected collaborations — all over great coffee and breakfast. Let’s gather, connect, and dive into thoughtful conversations in a relaxed setting. Barcelona, we’re coming!

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. **SPEAKER BIO** Mosaic Syed is a Senior Data Engineering and Cloud Solutions Architect with over 20 years of experience designing and delivering scalable, secure, and high-performance data solutions across global enterprise environments. https://www.linkedin.com/in/mosaic-basha-syed-92300856 **CALL FOR SPEAKERS** Learn more: [https://www.awscolumbus.com/get-involved/](https://www.awscolumbus.com/get-involved/) **THANK YOU** *VEEAM* for hosting our meetup!

**Total Eclipse of the Chart: School Redistricting Dashboards** In this presentation, we will explore the utilization of maps, sets, and SQL within a Tableau dashboard to help provide “what-if” analyses generated through the use of a mapped dashboard, providing different scenarios and the potential implications of these. While in this use case we are focused on a large school district, the concepts of utilizing existing data to explore the future impacts of modifying different geographic boundaries can be useful to many industries, balancing the mix of maps with visual analytics. **About Our Speaker** Robert Kramer is the Data Systems and State Reporting Coordinator at South Western City Schools in Grove City.

We’re bringing back Adult Field Day. Last year was a good mix of competition and just hanging out, so we’re doing it again with some new games mixed in. Think team-based challenges, simple races, and a few things inspired by game shows. You don’t need to be athletic. Most of the fun is just being part of a team and getting to know people you wouldn’t normally talk to. The goal isn’t really winning. It’s meeting people, laughing a bit, and leaving knowing a few more names than when you showed up. If you stick around after, we’ll have a potluck cookout. This is at a racetrack and there is a race that night be sure to check it out $15 cash only after the race about 11:30 or so we’ll start partying by the bonfire. BYOB free camping or sleep sober up in your vehicle do not drink and drive!! Bring: * Please Bring Something to share for the potluck cookout signup sheet [https://www.signupgenius.com/go/10C0E49ABA92EA2FAC70-63781787-saturday](https://www.signupgenius.com/go/10C0E49ABA92EA2FAC70-63781787-saturday) * Clothes you can move around in A **small contribution** helps keep events sustainable and ensures those who RSVP actually show up. **Great events** take time, effort, and consistency to organize. **Most people contribute** $3–5 per event to help keep these going.

We will show how to build custom agents with Microsoft Agent Framework. Attendees will learn how to build and custom host agents when Microsoft Foundry is not a viable option.

Columbus Code & Coffee is an inclusive, informal co-working session. People of all skill levels attend, and we love it that way. Many people (optionally) bring projects to work on, and many other people (optionally) socialize the entire time. It's entirely up to you! **What to Expect at the Intro Circle** \~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~ Near the beginning of the event (1:30 pm), we do a standup: * Organizer announcements, updates, and logistics Round 1 - (7 secs max): * Your name * What you're working on * What you can help others with Round 2: * Community events you wanna plug. If none, that's cool too. Round 3: * Job opportunities you're hiring for OR announce that you are looking for one. If none, that's cool. After the introduction circle, everything is self-organized! Feel free to work alone, pair up, attend one of our workshops/presentations, or mingle!
