Important note: please sign up on the Google Developer Group platform to attend the meetup: https://gdg.community.dev/events/details/google-gdg-cloud-zurich-presents-gdg-cloud-zurich-19-march-2026-meetup-32/ Join the GDG Cloud Zürich community for an evening of technical talks on Google Cloud, real-world insights, and networking with local practitioners. This meetup is intended for developers, architects, and engineers working with Google Cloud technologies. Agenda ⏰ 17:30: Doors open ⏰ 17:55: Doors close (late entry may not be possible due to building security) ⏰ 18:00: Welcome – Graham Polley, Thomas Hug, Filippo Broggini, Erin La, Alessandro Recca and Rachel Werner (organizers) ⏰ 18:05: Talk 1 – Fundamentals of securing your GCP workloads, Natalie Godec, Zencore ⏰ 18:35: Talk 2 – How Google SREs Use Gemini CLI to Solve Real-World Outages, Riccardo Carlesso & Ramón Medrano Llamas, Google ⏰ 19:05: Networking & Apéro – Supported by Google Cloud, Zencore, ABB, and Datwave Talk details Talk 1 Title: Fundamentals of securing your GCP workloadsSpeaker: Natalie Godec, ZencoreDescription: So you've vibe-coded your Super Smart AI Agentic App and are ready to set it free on the Internet. You are sure it will do well, it solves this amazing use-case, with such clever technology! You pick your favourite cloud provider, decide on a runtime - perhaps, Kubernetes or Cloud Run - buy a domain, ask Gemini to wire up a deployment pipeline. Happy days! But here's the thing. You can't vibe-code security. Every single thing you deploy to the cloud needs to be secured. And it's a hard task! Even for cybersecurity professionals. But fret not. Cloud providers, such as Google Cloud, have already put in the work to make your job easier. And in this talk, you will learn the fundamentals of securing your workloads, (almost) end-to-end. Talk 2 Title: How Google SREs Use Gemini CLI to Solve Real-World OutagesSpeaker: Riccardo Carlesso & Ramón Medrano Llamas, GoogleDescription: Google Site Reliability Engineers (SREs) use Gemini CLI to accelerate mitigation during live production outages. Acting as a tightly constrained, terminal-based agent, it uses the Model Context Protocol (MCP) to integrate live operational data. This allows operators to quickly triage alerts, execute human-approved fixes, pinpoint codebase bugs, and generate automated postmortems, ultimately eliminating toil and speeding up recovery.

## (Lesson 2) ## What to expect Project Equilibrium is an in-person introduction to disciplined, rule-based trading automation. This first event is designed to be clear, practical, and approachable no hype, no pressure, and no prior technical background required. ### Why we meet (two-session structure) This meetup is structured as **two lessons**: **Lesson 1 — The “Why” (mindset + framework)** * What Project Equilibrium is (and what it is not) * Why we focus on process, rules, and execution discipline * What “24/7 execution” means in practice * Q&A and open discussion **Lesson 2 — The “How” (step-by-step setup)** * A simple walkthrough of the basic tools you need * Step-by-step guidance to install and prepare the required exchange apps/accounts * A clear checklist to be ready for future sessions (You won’t be left alone—everything is explained calmly and in order.) ### What to bring To make the second lesson smooth, please bring: * **A smartphone** (for authentication and exchange app setup) * **A laptop** (for the setup steps and configuration) If you only have one device, you can still join Lesson 1. The setup lesson is simply easier with both. ### Who this is for * People curious about algorithmic execution and portfolio discipline * Beginners who want a structured approach * Experienced traders who want more consistency and less stress ### Agenda * Welcome + introductions * Lesson focus of the day (Why / How) * Guided walkthrough (where applicable) * Q&A + next steps ### How to find the group * Arrive a few minutes early and look for the **Project Equilibrium** group. * I will be there to welcome attendees if you’re unsure, simply ask the venue staff for the Meetup group name.

**Important time note:** Please plan on arriving between 5:30 and 6:00 as the elevators lock after 6 and you'll need to message us and we'll need to come get you. The building address is 4450 Bridge Park The entrance is 6620 Mooney St, Suite 400 **Abstract** Web Forms gave .NET developers a powerful abstraction for building reusable UI controls long before design systems were a thing. Web Components finally bring that same idea to the browser natively. This session explores how the Web Forms mindset translates into Custom Elements, Shadow DOM, and HTML templates. We’ll examine how Web Components enable design systems that work across frameworks, how they differ from server‑driven controls, and why they’re becoming a foundational layer for modern UI. Whether you’re maintaining legacy apps or building greenfield projects, you’ll leave with a practical understanding of how to apply familiar patterns in a modern, standards‑based way. **YouTube Link** TBA
