*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 โ AI Agents and CI Trust**
Weโve 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.
Organ Summer Festival Kickoff Concert

AI Future-Club Projects #1
**The direction is set. Now let's build.**
Our first session shaped what this group is about, now we get to see it in action.
A member is showing off a real project: what they built, what broke, and what surprised them. Then we open it up: Q&A, war stories, and a honest conversation about the tools, lessons, and struggles we're all running into.
Come ready to dig in and share.

Python Users Berlin (PUB): An introduction to PySpark
๐ Agenda
* 19:00 Welcome to the PUB (Python Users Berlin) โ setting up
* 19:15 Main talk
* 20:00 Lightning talks
* 20:30 Social gathering
๐ Main talk by [Sam Bail](https://www.meetup.com/de-DE/members/57634242/): PySpark
PySpark is a powerful library that brings Apache Sparkโs 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 Sparkโs 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.
๐ฉโ๐ป About [Sam Bail](https://www.meetup.com/de-DE/members/57634242/)
Data engineer and engineering leader with 10+ years building platforms and teams across healthcare, marketplaces, and data infrastructure at NYC tech startups. I teach data engineering courses on LinkedIn Learning and OโReilly, focused on making complex topics accessible to everyone.

Meetup for laid off folks in Berlin
Please RSVP on luma: https://luma.com/xmc1l5eg
# Laid off? Same!
Barely anyone I know hasn't been laid off at least once. Layoffs feel like another Tuesday right now. That's why I call us "Generation Layoff."
If you've been laid off, or feel one coming - this is your space. This meetup is for everybody pre-, during or post-layoff.
Whether you stressed out about an upcoming layoff or you've been laid off and now job-hunting or want to start something of your own - come and share.
No judgment, no pressure.
We share where we're at, what we're going through, and what's coming next.
This isn't another networking event where we hunt opportunities and call being laid off "impacted by company restructuring."
We connect people based on the challenges they're actually facing - so everyone leaves with something useful, whether that's a contact, a resource, or just knowing you're not alone.
Being laid off is often treated as a taboo topic - and it shouldn't be. We'll exchange all the insider tips and tricks and get stronger together.
What to Expect:
โ A chill, zero-judgement safe space
โ Addressing your challenges
โ People helping people
ORGANISATIONAL STUFFS:
โ We'll meet in a park, bring a blanket to sit on, a drink of your choice and some snacks, whatever it is you need for a picnic style.
โโ In case of rain we will go to the BRLO Brewery.
โIf you can't find us, call +4917626669794
โI will carry a sign with "GENERATION LAYOFF" though :D
โWe meet in Gleisdreieck park here: [https://maps.app.goo.gl/rC6fh9EprxEHnxEL7?g_st=ic](https://maps.app.goo.gl/rC6fh9EprxEHnxEL7?g_st=ic&utm_source=luma)

Founders & Builders - Co-Working Session (Deep Work + Social)
Hey everyone, Iโm organising a structured co-working event for those who are tired of grinding at home alone.
To ensure that we have both **socialising** + **working**, we'll be using the โPomodoroโ technique:
**50min of deep work** (silent), followed by **10min of break** to socialise. Then repeat! If you get into flow, you're also welcome to skip the breaks.
โโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโ-
AGENDA:
* **15min Intros -** Get to know everyone, talk about what you will work on today
* **Pomodoro Session** - *Each Pomodoro session consists* *of...*
* ...**50min** of uninterrupted โdeep workโ (no talking, no interruptions, no phones)
* ...**10min** of break: share your progress with others, talk about what you are stuck on etc.
* Repeat x3
* **15min** Conclude and celebrate your progress
Share your progress, socialise and meet new people. Or just get some work done :)
โโโโ
We'll be at the Social Hub Berlin (they have a food menu in case you get hungry). After the structured part ends, you're welcome to stay longer. See you there ๐ฉต
**\*\*We'll be at the long table. Please update your RSVP in advance if you can't attend!\*\***
How to Structure AI Prompts Effectively
**This event is taking place online.**
You write a prompt. You get something back that's almost right, or completely off, or weirdly generic. You tweak it. You try again. Sound familiar?
Better prompts aren't about magic phrases, they're about giving the model what it can't guess: who you are, who this is for, what shape the output should take, and what it needs to do.
This session shows you the difference on a real example, gives you time to try it on something from your own work, and covers some prompting best practices along the way.
17:00 โ Intro & live demo
17:20 โ What made the difference? A discussion round
17:35 โ Test your own prompt against a shared document 17:50 โ What we noticed, what to keep, and where to go next
Optional but great: Bring something you've tried to use AI for and hasn't quite landed.
Facilitator: Anca Trif

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 โ the good, the "not quite ready for prime time", and the hidden awesomeness.
