Python Users Berlin (PUB): An introduction to PySpark
📆 Agenda
* 19:00 Welcome to the PUB (Python Users Berlin) – setting up
* 19:15 Main talk
* 20:00 Lightning talks
* 20:30 Social gathering
🎙 Main talk by [Sam Bail](https://www.meetup.com/de-DE/members/57634242/): PySpark
PySpark is a powerful library that brings Apache Spark’s distributed computing capabilities to Python, making it a key tool for processing large-scale data efficiently. In this talk, data engineer and analyst Sam Bail provides a structured and hands-on introduction to PySpark, starting with an overview of Apache Spark, its architecture, and its ecosystem, such as Databricks. Learn about Spark’s core concepts, such as the DataFrame API, transformations, lazy evaluations, and actions, before setting up a lab environment and working with a real dataset. Plus, gain insights into how PySpark fits into a broader data engineering ecosystem and best practices on running PySpark in a production environment.

⚡️ Lightning talks
We would like you to give a lightning talk (shorter than 10 minutes) about what you are doing with Python.
📍This will be a face-to-face meeting.
Become a Landlord/lady. Werde Vermieter:in. On Demand: MON THR 6pm-7pm R.s.v.p.
We make landladies and landlords. They buy a flat and pay just 1/4. Tenants and tax cuts pay 3/4. It's not a trick. It's government policy. Our Federal Governments, past and present, want taxpayers to become landlords and landladies, buy property, rent it out to tenants and enjoy passive income later. Come check this out. No strings attached. No sales. Just a meet and greet for orientation. And an after work drink.
Wir machen Vermieter. Steuerzahler kaufen eine Wohnung und zahlen dafür nur 1/4. Mieter und Finanzamt zahlen 3/4. Das ist kein Trick. Das ist Politik: Alle Bundesregierungen wollen, dass Steuerzahler Wohnungen kaufen, Mieter reinnehmen und später Beton‑Rente bekommen. Info-Abend nur zur Orientierung. Kucken kostet nichts.

*Christoph Ebeling*
**Running K8s with AI: Automating** **the SRE Lifecycle with Grafana MCP and GitLab**
What does it look like to run 30+ microservices, 8 databases, and a Kafka cluster almost entirely through AI agents? This talk walks through a practical demo of automating the full SRE lifecycle: from incident investigation to deployment validation, using Grafana MCP and the GitLab Agent Platform, and where humans still need to stay in the loop.
*Serhii Vasylenko*
**The Pipeline Was Green — AI Agents and CI Trust**
We’ve spent years building CI/CD pipelines that tell us when code is "technically correct," but are they capable of telling an autonomous AI agent if a change is safe to apply? This talk explores a real-world incident where an AI-powered automation -- pairing Renovate with Claude Code -- successfully executed a "green" pipeline that broke a critical QA cluster for three days, how the team reacted, and how we evolved our vision toward the future of human-agentic collaboration with code.
*Frithjof Hoffmann*
**Managing Uninvited Guests: Securing Open Source Dependencies**
Open source software is the ultimate neighborhood party, but what happens when an uninvited guest slips through the door? This talk digs into the messy reality of dependency hell and its role in software supply chain security: from typosquatting attacks to maintainer account takeovers, and the abandoned projects with known CVEs quietly living in your codebase rent-free.

Real Long Term Friendship
Nice! You are looking for real long time friendship! You might have already lived in Berlin or other big cities and experienced the "Anonymous" culture for a while. Meeting random people over and over and never see the same person again! In order to find "Real Long Term Friendship" in Berlin, do as follows:
* You should not care how many people are joining this meetup.
You RVSP. Even if only one person is joining. Because if everyone are waiting for everyone else to RVSP, nobody joins and nobody finds a new friend.
* You do not care how many people of the opposite sex are joining.
You are looking for friends. Finding the best romantic partner in the world, while avoiding not very attractive others, can be your other goal, for another time. Here we are looking for Friends. Real ones.
* You are going to risk a very precious property of yours: Your time!
Yes, there are thousands of opportunities in Berlin, there might be a rock concert for free, a birthday party you might miss, an important person might call you and invite you spontaneously, but you never find new friends until you decide to risk your time and meet people anyway. "I will check my calendar and get back to you" also does not work. Commit your time and spend it. Trust me, you won't go bankrupt ;-)
* You are ready to use your phone as a real phone!
You might have been using your phone as a tablet to visit Instagram and Facebook and watch movies. But if you want to find friends, you must know that people might take your phone number and give you theirs. That means they will Call you! And you have to pick up the phone and answer it. If you want to find new friends, you must be ready to do something really hard for the first time after years: Call people first, and if they called you: Answer your phone!
* You are going to meet some people twice!
That's the point of friendship. We already can experience random encounters with random people in random places one at a time. But that is not called friendship. If you want friends, you must be ready to meet the same person more than once.
If you agree with above, RVSP and COME! You will meet other people who think the same way.
P.S: Now that you've read all the way down to here, I suggest you [watch this animation](https://player.vimeo.com/video/547249272?h=22f3dd0f6f).
Longevity Berlin Running Club

Authentic Belonging Connection Circle
***An Evening of Authentic Relating, Attunement and Connection***
What becomes possible when authenticity and belonging meet?
This first Authentic Belonging Circle is an invitation to slow down, arrive more fully in yourself, and explore genuine connection with others.
Together we'll create a space rooted in play, supported by clear boundaries, and open to depth.
During the evening, we'll explore a blend of Authentic Relating games, partner exercises, embodied practices, and Circling. Some moments may be light and playful, others more intimate and reflective.
You are invited to:
• connect with yourself and others in new ways
• practice deep listening and authentic expression
• explore what it feels like to stay connected to yourself while relating
• cultivate greater presence, attunement, and belonging
No previous experience is needed. Whether you're new to these practices or already familiar with them, you're warmly welcome.
The circle is held by Manuela, a systemic coach and facilitator trained in Authentic Relating, Heart IQ, TEPP, and other relational and embodiment-based approaches. (Learn more at [authentic-belonging.com](https://authentic-belonging.com/))

Networking & Language Exchange - 🍖international🍻
This is a 3 phase meetup. You can come at any time.
1.) 6:30 - 7:00 p.m.: Gathering at the meeting spot (see link and photo!).
2.) 7:00 - 7:30 p.m.: Walk & Talk through Tiergarten.
3.) 7:30 - 10:00 p.m.: Immerse conversations in the Zollpackhof beer garden (reserved tables for the meetup).
**1.) Meeting spot is Henriette Herz Park.**
Copy the coordinates into your maps app: **52°30'38.9"N 13°22'24.1"E**
The exact meeting spot can also be seen in the photo.
Look for a meetup sign or organizer wearing a black or red lanyard with "staff" written on it.
**Best ways to get there:**
1\. S\-Bahn:
Get off at Potsdamer Platz by S1, S2 or S25 and walk to the designated meeting spot.
2\. U\-Bahn \(subway\):
Alternatively you can get off at Potsdamer Platz by U2 and just walk 5 min straight to the park.
3\. Bus:
If you change at mainstation you can take the M41 or M85 to
S Potsdamer Platz /Voßstr. and walk to the park.
**2.) Walk & Talk through Tiergarten** (the best part imho). During these weird times it essential to connect with nature and like minded people. You will feel instantly energized and an inner calmness afterwards.
**3.) How to the find the Zollpackhof beer garden:**
https://goo.gl/maps/vDYYaJcFvTmd7hei7
Elisabeth-Abegg-Straße 1, 10557 Berlin
We will be sitting outside. Click the gmaps link with the exact meeting spot if you can can't find us!
If you enter from the Magnus-Hirschfeld-Ufer, just go to the left part of the beer garden where the self-service is.
If you enter from Elisabeth-Abegg-Str, enter the beer garden from the right.
*Who is this meetup for:*
1\. Internationals who want to practice German or any other language\.
2\. Germans who want to improve their language skills\.
3\. Anyone who is interested in cultural exchange and wants to socialize\.
*What you can expect:*
1\. A professionally organized meetup that can adapt to any changes given the current situation\.
2\. A Walk & Talk to break the ice\.
3\. A collaborating venue where you can further socialize with other members\.
*important:* This event is at the same time and meeting location like the "Asian Languages & Culture Exchange 日本語, 한국어, 汉语" one. So I'm basically organizing 2 events at the same time which means that you can expect way more people than on the list.
***
Whenever you attend a meetup, the most common as well as first question you get is: "Where are you from?"
You probably heard this question a million times. Well, at least I did.
From my own experience of attending over 200 international meetups in various countries such as Germany, Japan, Australia and Thailand, I can tell you that asking for the name is a better approach.
“A person’s name is to that person, the sweetest, most important sound in any language.” - Dale Carnegie
If you really want to connect with like-minded people you should remember their name, but you don't have to remember every persons name you've talked you. Be picky about that, don't be me who can somehow remember everyones name easily.
Don't tell yourself sth. like "I'm bad at remembering names." It's all about developing the habit of asking for a name and keep the conversation going on.
Furthermore, you want to learn German or any other language. Learning the local language is crucial to connect with the locals and developing a true friendship.
This can be accomplished with immersion. My goal is to inspire you to go out of your comfort zone and improve yourself each time you join this meetup.

Reading Party ☕️📚
\*\*\*\*\*\*
***For address and more details see the website www.pausify.org***
\*\*\*\*\*\*
**Event Info:**
Pausify is the **biggest community and most active** of book lovers and creatives in Berlin.
Impressions: Instagram: **[@Pausify (Co-Reading Space)](https://www.instagram.com/pausify_org/)**
Events happen every Sat and Sun at 11 AM.
Bring along your **current book to read** (or something **creative** to work on) and join us for this mix of a shared focus time + discussion.
\- 11:00\-11:30 \- Meet & greet
\- 11:30\-12:30 \- Silent focus time
\- 12:30 \- Discussion of books/ projects over coffee
Afterwards, join for lunch if you'd like (optional).
**Drinks & snacks are included** ☕️
* **To reserve your place, a ticket (€9,90/event) or a community pass (only €17,90/MONTH) [from the website ](https://pausify.org/)*www.pausify.org* is required**
* **Attendance here doesn’t show all sign-ups from other platforms. We usually have about 50 to 100 people at each event.**
***FAQ: Why does it cost money if I bring my own project?***
Because we rent a beautiful, central space for every event. Ever thought your monthly apartment rent was too high? Well, multiply that – that’s what commercial spaces in big cities like Berlin cost *per hour*.
Of course, if all you want is just some quiet time, your home or a library is perfect. But if you’d like to focus & connect with others in an inspiring space – with drinks, snacks included – that’s what your ticket helps to cover.
See pics from our events below - and on our Instagram: **[@Pausify (Co-Reading Space)](https://www.instagram.com/pausify_org/) ☕️**

CBusData - Highlights and Hidden Gems in SQL Server 2025
Highlights and Hidden Gems in SQL Server 2025
With so much emphasis on cloud data platforms and AI these days, SQL people can feel left behind by all the marketing hype. SQL Server 2025 was officially released in November of 2025, though, and contains a ton of improvements that will make our SQL Server deployments a bit faster, better, and more secure. There are even more improvements tucked into the release that never made a marketing blog or press release that you'll likely be learning about for the first time in this session!
Join this session to learn about what makes your high availability a little more available, your performance a bit more performant, and your database more developer and app-friendly. Come spend an hour with SQL people talking SQL Server 2025 – the good, the "not quite ready for prime time", and the hidden awesomeness.
Columbus PHP: Monthly Meetup
Our monthly PHP meetup.

Marketing Monday Networking
Monthly working lunch for Columbus business owners. One specific topic, one to three actions you can run this week.
You can be the best at what you do and still be invisible. If local buyers cannot find you, the phone does not ring.
Marketing Monday Lunch + Learn is a monthly working lunch for Columbus business owners focused on building relationships, local networking, and local marketing. Every kind of local business welcome. No pitch round, no pressure, no upsell.
**This month**
Most local businesses pick one or two places to be visible and call it good. The result is inconsistent calls and a feeling that marketing is not working. We will walk through the three places every local business needs to show up, plus the fourth place most owners ignore that quietly produces the warmest leads.
**What to expect**
Doors open at noon. Order lunch and drinks at the cafe counter or bring your own. You get real conversation with other local owners and a focused marketing lesson. You leave knowing people and with one to three actions to run that week. The room is reserved through 1:30 PM.
**Who this is for**
Any local business owner who wants clearer marketing direction and real local relationships. Service businesses, retail, home services, professional services, online owners building local presence, anyone serious about being part of the Columbus business community.
**Not the right fit if**
You are here to pitch the room or recruit for an MLM.
**Details**
* Second Monday of every month
* 12:00 to 1:30 PM
* Good Cafe Easton, 4400 Easton Commons, Ste 150, Columbus, OH 43219
* Order lunch and drinks at the counter when you arrive
* Free to attend, RSVP required, space is limited
