In many organizations, APIs are treated as technical contracts — neat documentation of endpoints and payloads. But what if APIs could become something more: living expressions of the business domain itself? This talk examines how Domain-Driven Design (DDD) and modern API craftsmanship converge to establish a shared language between people and systems. We’ll walk through how techniques like Domain Storytelling, Event Storming, and Context Mapping can lead directly into OpenAPI and AsyncAPI specifications that reflect real domain intent — not just data structures. **How can LLM help?** Along the way, we’ll see how Large Language Models (LLMs) can amplify human creativity — helping teams turn visual domain artifacts into executable API contracts while preserving intent and nuance. Instead of replacing design thinking, AI becomes a collaborator in the craftsmanship process. Through practical examples, we’ll explore how bounded contexts define API boundaries, how ubiquitous language shapes resource and event models, and how contract-first design enables safe, evolutionary change. By the end, you’ll see APIs not merely as integration points, but as living domain boundaries to align architecture, business, and shared understanding. **About the speaker** [Annegret](https://www.linkedin.com/in/dr-annegret-junker-141a99a4/) is Chief Software Architect at codecentric AG in Germany. She has worked in software development for over 30 years. She worked in quite different roles and domains. She is especially interested in DDD, microservices, and everything else. She is working on a large integration project and defines APIs for partners. **The Sponsor** This time, the location, food, and drinks are sponsored by [TechTalk](https://techtalk.at/). Thank you very much, TechTalk, you rock! 🎉 This will be a joined event with the Domain-Driven Design Vienna Meetup ([https://www.meetup.com/ddd-vienna/](https://www.meetup.com/ddd-vienna/)) and it is enough to register for only one of the meetups. It is not necessary to register for both! Space is limited, so please register if you want to come. As always, we're very much looking forward to seeing you! Best regards, Daniel and Gottfried

**Freches deutsches Comedy Open Mic in Wien! Junge Comedians + erfahrene Pros, gratis Eintritt & Drinks – jeden Mittwoch im Comedy Pub.** ## [HOL DIR DEINE RESERVIERUNG!!!](https://www.universe.com/events/checkst-du-comedy-freches-stand-up-open-mic-thecomedypub-tickets-8S49H0?ref=MeetUp) Willkommen zu **Checkst du? Comedy**, der mittwöchlichen Stand-up-Show im *The Comedy Pub*, bei der junge Talente und erfahrene Comedians gemeinsam für einen Abend voller Energie sorgen. Frech, direkt und immer spontan – hier wird Stand-up neu gedacht und live getestet. Diese Show ist der Spielplatz der neuen Generation von Comedians in Wien. Sie bringen frische Ideen, mutige Witze und ungeschliffene Jokes auf die Bühne. Erfahrene Profis runden den Abend ab und zeigen, wie Timing und Bühnenpräsenz funktionieren. Das Publikum bekommt so einen spannenden Mix: jung, wild, frech – und trotzdem mit Comedy-Handwerk auf höchstem Niveau. ## 🤔 Was ist ein Open Mic? Ein Open Mic ist der Ort, an dem Comedy geboren wird. Hier probieren Newcomer ihre allerersten Jokes, während Profis ihre neuesten Texte testen. Manche Gags knallen sofort, manche landen vielleicht erst beim zweiten Versuch – aber gerade das macht den Reiz aus. Du bist live dabei, wenn Comedy entsteht, wächst und manchmal glorreich scheitert. Und genau das ist **echtes Stand-up**. ## 🍻 The Comedy Pub – Der Comedy-Hotspot in Wien Die Bühne von **Checkst du? Comedy** ist der historische Altbaukeller im *The Comedy Pub* (Kettenbrückengasse 7, 1050 Wien). Oben: Irish-Pub-Flair mit Drinks, Bar-Snacks und guter Stimmung. Unten: Kelleratmosphäre pur – nah dran, direkt und perfekt für Stand-up. Dank der Lage direkt an der U4-Station Kettenbrückengasse bist du in wenigen Minuten mitten im Comedy-Geschehen. ## 💡 Eintritt frei – Spenden willkommen Lachen soll für alle zugänglich sein! Deshalb ist der Eintritt frei. Aber Comedy lebt auch davon, dass Publikum und Künstler\*innen sich gegenseitig unterstützen. Wenn du gelacht hast, zeig’s mit einer Spende – fair, ehrlich und der direkteste Applaus überhaupt. ## 🎟️ Regeln für das Publikum Damit die Show für alle funktioniert, bitten wir dich um ein paar Basics: * Sei pünktlich – die besten Plätze sind schnell weg. * Lachen ausdrücklich erwünscht – am besten laut! * Keine Gespräche während der Show, Fokus auf die Bühne. * Kein Heckling – die Comedians sind funny genug. 😉 * Spenden sind willkommen – Support your locals! ## 🎉 Warum Mittwoch? Weil der Mittwoch sonst der langweiligste Tag der Woche wäre. **Checkst du? Comedy** macht aus der Wochenmitte ein Highlight: jung, frech, energiegeladen und mit Line-ups, die jede Woche neu überraschen. Wenn du Lust hast auf ehrliches Stand-up ohne Filter, dann bist du hier genau richtig. #CheckstDuComedy #ComedyWien #StandupWien #OpenMicWien #DeutschComedy #ComedyNightWien #ComedyClubWien #StandupComedyWien #WienLacht #LachenInWien #ComediansWien #ComedySzeneWien #ComedyShowWien #WienEvents #WienNightlife #ComedyLovers #WienOpenMic #GermanComedy #ComedyVienna #ViennaComedy #StandupVienna #ViennaEvents #ViennaNightlife #ViennaOpenMic #ViennaStandup #ViennaFun #ViennaUnderground #ComedyLifeWien #WienHumor #StandupSceneWien #LaughsInVienna #ComedySpotWien #FunnyInWien #AltbaukellerComedy #ViennaLaughs #WienWednesday #FrecheComedy #NewComediansWien #ComedyNewGen #YoungComedyWien

**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 Flux’s 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.

FlashAttention is one of the most important pieces of software infrastructure for both training and serving any relevant AI model on cutting-edge GPUs. Let's have a look under the hood. The paper comes with a blog post that may be easier to read: [https://tridao.me/blog/2024/flash3/](https://tridao.me/blog/2024/flash3/) Find the paper here: [https://arxiv.org/abs/2407.08608](https://arxiv.org/abs/2407.08608) We are trying out a new Location -- right at the Westbahnhof IKEA.

Extensions allow developers to customize the editor with new features, integrations, and workflow improvements tailored to their needs. In this session, we’ll cover what extensions are and the different types available, including full extensions written in TypeScript or JavaScript, along with lighter-weight extensions such as color themes, language packs, language support, code snippets, and keymaps. We’ll also look at practical reasons a developer might create an extension, from automating repetitive tasks to adding custom tooling. The session includes a hands-on walkthrough of creating a new extension, testing it locally, and understanding the basic project structure. We’ll close with a brief overview of how extensions are packaged and published to the Visual Studio Marketplace and other distribution options. **YouTube Link** TBD
