Badminton for Intermediate Players (Thu 19.00h-21.00h) U3 KendlerstraĂe
Hey Badminton Enthusiasts!
**This meet-up is only for intermediate players and up!**
Everyone is welcome to join our large weekly events, test their skills and have some fun together! However, ***this event is for the people that want to push their skill forward and would like to play during the week as well.***
The host will reserve courts in advance, that means please only register if you really plan to come (or cancel at least 24 hours before the event starts). The fee for this event is 12âŹ:
*If you plan on paying in cash, please bring the exact amount as the host might not have any change available
- you can also pay via card on the spot
We are meeting at about 18.55 pm near the reception by the lounge area (next to the courts). Come a bit earlier so you have time to change into workout/sports clothes. The locker rooms are free to use, but for the men lockers you need a padlock - or you can also take your bag of clothes upstairs to the courts if you do not have a padlock. Also, bring clean indoor sports shoes, your racket and a water bottle with you.
If you are just passing through town and do not have a racket, it is possible to rent rackets, either from the club or from us. Sometimes the host or other members have spare rackets - please ask in the comment section below!
If you are joining our events for the first time, **WELCOME!** We are an open and friendly group and we are sure you will develop connections with the people in our community in no time!
Without further ado - let's play some (intermediate) badminton and have fun together!
Mixed indoor volleyball
Mixed indoor volleyball. We play in a friendly atmosphere for fun and enjoyment at intermediate and advanced levels. Unfortunately, if you are a beginner, you cannot participate. If you have registered but are unable to attend, please cancel your registration 48 hours before the start of the match so that others can join. Otherwise, you will be charged the fee. The game costs âŹ10 per person. Thank you for your understanding.
THURSDAYđâœFOOTBALL FRIENDLY 20:30-22:00 (Donaucity) w/ SORIN & Video Highlights
Things to know before playing:
Ladies and Gentlemen, boys and girls;
We play Thursday Night Football (outdoor only) . We play 90 minutes (kick off is at 20:30, and we meet at least 15 minutes before for a warm up phase). Post-Corona football matches are most likely between 14-16 and 28-32 players. If you would like to join please bring artificial turf shoes (like the ones for indoor turf) and shin pads (not mandatory but definitely recommendable).
All I ask is that you come with a good mood, be respectful to everyone, and pay online using the link below.

Other methods for payments.

We play light: no sliding, hard tackling, fighting, screaming, & hopefully no injuries. We need to respect current regulations in Vienna, Austria.
The main priorities are to have fun and being safe. The drinks are relatively free after the game in the local pub, served to those who have shown fantastic football fair-play skills. Weâll confirm the location, the pitches, and the dressing room numbers via our dedicated Football WhatsApp group. Keep an eye out for the group messages. See you all soon.
Sorin SMS/ WhatsApp +43 6764276984 (please ask to be added to our football groups). We will probably need to confirm your presence if you are coming for the first or second time.
Important management rule:

One small final note:
Please avoid trying to take justice in your hands. If someone is talking bad, complaining, insulting someone, fouling on purpose or committing the usual football shenanigans, please let the organizers know. Measures will be taken, we assure you. Any misbehavior on your part, such as responding in an obscene way, fighting, or leaving the pitch is not a practical and diplomatic way of resolving the issues (it tends to create more tension and cause more problems). Letâs be respectful and mature and try to enjoy the game we all love. Thatâs why weâre all here. Get to know people from all over the world and have fun!
Thank you.

Cloud Native Vienna: June 2026 MeetUp
**IMPORTANT UPDATE:** Due to unexpected sick leaves within our speaker and organizing team, **we have to postpone this MeetUp to June 25th**. Everything else stays the same.
**@everyone: Please review and update your RSVP status accordingly.**
\-\-\-
We'd like to invite you to our fourth installation for the Cloud Native Vienna MeetUps in 2026!
Again we'll have two deep-dive talks and time to network and chat with friends in the Viennese cloud native community.
A big thank you to **WKO Inhouse GmbH** for hosting us and providing food and drinks!
**Agenda:**
* **17:30:** Doors Open & Networking
* **17:55:** Welcome from the Organizers
* **18:00:** **Talk 1:** Rober Klonner (WKO Inhouse GmbH)
**GitOps Visibility: Precise Argo CD diffs on every Pull Request**
* **18:45:** Break & Refreshments
* **19:00:** **Talk 2:** Thomas Hanser (Untis GmbH)
**The Untis Platform Engineering Journey: GitOps Multi-Tenancy with Flux, GitLab, and Friends**
* **19:45:** Open Networking
We look forward to seeing you there!
\-\-\-
**Talks:**
Rober Klonner (WKO Inhouse Gmbh)
**GitOps Visibility: Precise Argo CD diffs on every Pull Request**
Today's GitOps deployments are generated through layers of templating - Helm charts, Kustomize or ApplicationSets. Modifying these abstractions and trying to mentally render the output is error-prone.
This talk introduces a method that uses Argo CD itself to render accurate diffs of Helm charts and Kustomize overlays between branches and posts the result directly on your pull request.
We'll walk through a production setup using the Argo CD Operator, Argo CD Diff Preview, and GitLab CI, optimized for performance, minimal maintenance, and security. Through real-world use cases, we'll show what issues this approach catches before they hit your cluster.
Thomas Hanser (Untis GmbH)
**The Untis Platform Engineering Journey: GitOps Multi-Tenancy with Flux, GitLab, and Friends**
Operating in the European education sector means juggling compliance, student privacy and massive traffic spikes when school starts. Historically at Untis, keeping this running in production was the burden of a single operations team. This session details our transition to an automated, multi-tenant GitOps platform managing a fleet of internal and external Kubernetes clusters. We share our approach of building a platform that gives product teams actual autonomy without compromising on security or control:
* **Structured Multi-Tenancy:** Mapping GitLab groups to namespaced tenant projects using Fluxâs multi-tenant model.
* **Secure Access Control:** Leveraging the GitLab Agent for Kubernetes to enable scoped, declarative self-service cluster access.
* **Flexible Delivery Models:** Supporting multiple decentralized deployment strategies by balancing governance and freedom for both internal teams and external guest environments.
Prepare for an honest demonstration of challenges like managing secret lifecycles across a growing fleet, moving from script-driven tenant onboarding to true automated self-service, and wrestling with the classic "chicken-and-egg" problems of bootstrapping Flux and handling GitOps release management.
