Control & Clarity in Atlassian Platform direction, admin sanity, and real-world planning Atlassian is evolving fast — new platform concepts, new ways of organizing work, and increasing complexity for admins and teams. At the same time, many organizations are struggling with very practical questions: How do we stay in control? How do we keep things tidy and manageable? And how do we plan realistically as teams and environments grow? At this Atlassian Community Event in Prague, we’ll bring together Atlassian insights, partner experience, and real customer examples to explore how teams are navigating change — and what actually works in practice. 🎤 Agenda & Speakers Service Collection: Platform Direction & What’s Coming Next Darryl LeeSolutions Engineer, Atlassian Darryl will give a high-level introduction to Service Collection — what it is, why Atlassian is investing in it, and what it means for existing customers. The session will also include a look at the roadmap and upcoming changes, helping attendees better understand where the Atlassian platform is heading and how to prepare for it. Atlassian Cloud and the Loss of Control Ed LetifovTechTime Initiative Group Limited Sometimes it feels like too much is happening in Atlassian — too fast, with too little visibility. User identities, access, and numbers stop making sense, and admins are left feeling overwhelmed. In this talk, Ed will share real approaches implemented by TechTime’s customers to organize user identities in Atlassian Cloud, reduce chaos, make data consistent, and ultimately lower admin stress. A practical session focused on regaining control and clarity. When Estimation Breaks: Collaborative Planning in Jira at Scale Maria MelnikCTO, Teamlead Jira’s estimation model assumes one person owns one issue. In real teams, work is collaborative — and that’s where estimation starts to fall apart. Subtasks, custom fields, and manual roll-ups can help, but they often create noise, overhead, and unreliable data for admins. This session explores how teams handle collaborative estimation in Jira today, where native approaches hit their limits, and what practical patterns partners use to restore clarity. A real-world discussion focused on reducing admin effort and making planning data usable again. Understanding Team Capacity in Jira: Native Features vs. Real-World Usage Ostap ZaishlyiSenior Product Manager, Reliex Jira offers multiple native ways to view workload and capacity — boards, calendars, and Jira Plans — but how well do these tools work as complexity grows? Using a real customer example, this session explores: What Jira’s native features can (and can’t) tell you Where teams typically hit limitations How add-ons like ActivityTimeline are used to complement Jira and gain clearer visibility into workloads, availability, and constraints — enabling better planning decisions in real-life scenarios 🤝 Networking & Catering As always, the event will conclude with networking, food, and drinks — a great opportunity to: Connect with fellow Atlassian users, admins, and partners Ask follow-up questions to the speakers Share experiences and challenges in an informal setting Whether you’re an admin, a team lead, or simply curious about where Atlassian is heading, this event is designed to give you clarity, perspective, and practical takeaways. We’re looking forward to seeing you!

This month we bring you a seminar from the host of Prague's famous Cafe Philo, Albert Hoffman, entitled “The God of the Philosophers”. In this seminar, we'll be **exploring the concept of god not through the lens of holy scriptures or divine revelation, but through that of reason.** When philosophers speak of “god,” they are often speaking of something very different from that presented by most religious traditions. In his Metaphysics, **Aristotle** carries out a metaphysical inquiry not with questions concerning the sacred or worship, but with motion, causation, and the structure of reality itself. He arrives at a **conception of god not as a mythic figure ready to reward or punish us, but something more similar to a law of nature.** **Thomas Aquinas** inherits this framework centuries later and deepens it. Drawing on Aristotle's metaphysics, he asks whether contingent beings can account for their own existence, whether causes can regress infinitely, and what it would mean for something to exist necessarily rather than dependently. He presents to us an image of god not merely as first in a sequence, but as the very **ground of being itself**. You don't need any prior knowledge or expertise on these subjects to participate in this discussion, so come and join us as we move through the logic underpinning these conceptions of god and discover whether these arguments still carry any force today! \*\*\* We’ll have tea and light snacks, but please feel free to bring any drink or snack you’d like to share! This event will be hosted in an apartment with a well-trained dog who will be happy to meet you. If anyone has concerns about dogs, let me know so I can be mindful about keeping her from bothering you. The buzzer is Everett and Mainous—we’re on the 5th floor, apartment 16.

Through guided breathing and music, participants are supported in reconnecting with inner steadiness and allowing recent experiences — personal, emotional, or relational — to land in the body with greater clarity and calm. This session emphasizes nervous system regulation, integration, and a felt sense of orientation before moving forward. The practice is gentle, accessible, and does not require previous breathwork experience. The evening includes a short introduction, approximately 50 minutes of guided breathwork, and a sharing circle with tea afterward. Masculine / Shiva / Yang Ground. Direct. Build. This ceremony is an exploration of the masculine current within us — the part that moves forward, sets boundaries, and creates structure. When distorted, it can easily turn into aggression or rigidity. It is often said that we live in a world largely driven by masculine power. Let’s explore together how the masculine shows up in your life and in your body. This journey is about restoring clean strength. Shaking up rigidity. Gaining inner clarity, stability, and direction.

Projects that are over budget, delayed, or that fail to scale past the POC phase are very common. In many of these scenarios, choosing the right approach can be as critical as the solution itself. Should you build a tailored machine learning model, leverage the power of large language models (LLMs), or integrate with AI copilots? Each option has unique strengths, trade-offs, and resource requirements, and the key to success lies in aligning your choice with your business goals and technical constraints. In this talk, we will go beyond the basic concepts and definitions to provide a practical guide that allows attendees to navigate these decisions through real-world case studies. We will examine scenarios in which different AI paradigms were chosen, discuss the factors that influenced those decisions, and outline the process for evaluating needs, constraints, and outcomes. From assessing data availability and team expertise to balancing cost and scalability, you'll gain insights into the critical considerations that guide the selection process. By the end of this session, you’ll have a clear process for determining whether machine learning, LLMs, or copilots are best suited to your AI challenges and understand the resources and strategies needed to bring your chosen solution to life. This talk is ideal for decision-makers, technical leads, and innovators seeking to demystify AI implementation and maximize the impact of their investments.

Window functions have nothing to do with the Windows operating system but provide a “window” to a result set when used in SQL queries. They are powerful, set-based methods to view data in unexpected ways. Window functions provide easy, set-based solutions to solve some common problems: * Using running totals * Performing operations in intervals * Identifying data gaps and islands * Performing aggregates without losing detail Many people are confused by window functions and do not know how to use them properly. This session will explore window functions, how they work, and how to use them. Demonstrations with several examples will solidify how window functions can simplify queries and make them more powerful.
