Van de betrouwbare basis van SUSE Linux Enterprise Server (SLES) tot multicluster Kubernetes-beheer met Rancher en zero-trust containerbeveiliging met SUSE Security: SUSE biedt een compleet, onafhankelijk open-source ecosysteem van besturingssysteem tot cloudtechnologieën. We starten met de basis van SUSE en kijken terug naar de ontwikkeling van een Duitse open-source pionier in 1992 tot een wereldwijde enterprise speler van vandaag. Daarbij prikken we door de marketingverhalen heen en delen we praktijkvoorbeelden van organisaties die het volledige SUSE-portfolio inzetten om complexe infrastructuuruitdagingen op te lossen. Ook laten we zien hoe klanten de overstap maken van een Amerikaans georiënteerde infrastructuur naar een Europees alternatief. Tot slot geven we een live Rancher-demo, waarin je ziet hoe alle componenten naadloos samenwerken om moderne IT-landschappen te beveiligen, beheren en schaalbaar te maken. Wat kun je verwachten: * **Het volledige SUSE-verhaal** Hoe een Europese open-source pionier een complete technologiestack heeft opgebouwd – van operating system tot Kubernetes. * **Meer dan alleen containers** Inzicht in het bredere portfolio (Linux & Cloud Native) en waarom dit aansluit bij de behoeften van moderne enterprises. Inclusief mogelijkheden om jezelf hierin te laten opleiden tot specialist. * **Praktijkvoorbeelden uit de markt** Hoe organisaties het volledige ecosysteem gebruiken voor stabiliteit, compliance en schaalbaarheid en waarom SUSE steeds vaker de nieuwe standaard wordt. * **Live demo** Zie het portfolio in actie en ontdek hoe SUSE de volledige keten verbindt: van infrastructuur tot en met de applicatielaag. Of je nu infrastructure architect, platform engineer of security specialist bent: sluit aan en ontdek waarom het SUSE-portfolio perfect aansluit op jouw moderne infrastructuurstack!'' *Het programma zal deze avond als volgt zijn:* * Vanaf 17.15 u: inloop * Rond 17.30/18.00 u: eten * 18.30 u: start sessie * 20.00 u: afsluiting We zien jullie graag dan!

The Rabobank Tech Community together with [CodeLab](https://www.meetup.com/codelabjug/) is organizing a Java meetup for our community. Victor Rentea will speak at Rabobank in the evening of July 2nd. Because of the limited number of seats, please keep your RSVP up-to-date, so we can welcome someone else if you can't make it. **IMPORTANT:** Due to Rabobank security measures, we need to present in advance an attendee list with everyone’s full names. This is partly because Rabobank is, well, a bank, but also related to safety measures in case of an emergency. That is why we need to ask you the following: If you do not use your real full name as profile name at Meetup.com, could you send us your full name in a private message? The attendee list presented to Rabobank will only be used for visitor's registration at the reception and will not be published anywhere, we only do this to comply with said safety measures. The meet-up will be held in a non-public area of the building. This means that without proper registration the security team will not be able to let you in. Hoping for your understanding. === **Agenda** 17:00 Walk in + Dinner 18:15 Talk 20:00 Drinks 21:00 Ending **Talk** **Agentic Engineering - Patterns and Anti-Patterns** A compilation of emerging patterns and common pitfalls observed in over 50 companies.

Join us for an hour of writing! We’ve discovered that it’s strikingly helpful to write with other writers. See if it’s true for you at Factor-ij Amsterdam on Thursday mornings. Be it a book, blog, script, essay, dissertation, resume, melody, poem or just plain work stuff, you are invited to write it with us.

SCHEDULE: 11: 15 AM - Quick introductions 11: 30 AM - Timer starts: write for 1 hour 12: 30 PM - The End: chat, take off, or keep writing OPTIONAL SOCIALIZING happens at 12:30 pm after the writing is wrapped. Writing is very solitary. Connecting (and sometimes even commiserating) with other writers is a cool thing. BEING LATE IS OKAY: just show up and get settled, then check-in with me after the session. (I’ll be the person with the Shut Up & Write! sign.) If you were on time, please be willing to make room for the friendly latecomer. Happy writing and I look forward to seeing you at Factor-ij! What Should I Bring? Whatever you need to be able to write! Bring earbuds/earplugs if you want to block the cafe’s overhead music or the occasional conversation by other patrons.

'THE SYMPATHIZER' by Viet Thanh Nguyen 'The winner of the 2016 Pulitzer Prize for Fiction, as well as seven other awards, The Sympathizer is the breakthrough novel of the year. With the pace and suspense of a thriller and prose that has been compared to Graham Greene and Saul Bellow, The Sympathizer is a sweeping epic of love and betrayal. The narrator, a communist double agent, is a man of two minds, a half-French, half-Vietnamese army captain who arranges to come to America after the Fall of Saigon, and while building a new life with other Vietnamese refugees in Los Angeles is secretly reporting back to his communist superiors in Vietnam. The Sympathizer is a blistering exploration of identity and America, a gripping espionage novel, and a powerful story of love and friendship.' ***Please read the book and join us for a lively discussion (in English) about the contents during our afternoon book club meeting.*** \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- **PLEASE NOTE:** This is an IN-PERSON event in Amersfoort, The Netherlands.

We meet at lunch each week and each meeting follows a fairly organized agenda. First all participants pass their business cards around. Then each member and guest is invited to give a one-minute overview of their company and what is a perfect referral for the week. We always have a 10 minute presentation from one of the members about their business in more detail. And finally we pass referrals. You're welcome to visit. Nobody is ever put on the spot. Bring plenty of cards!

Our monthly PHP meetup. A virtual shindig courtesy of Zoom. Check back here for the details around 6:15 pm

This is a free, in-person meeting on the subject of betrayals, losses and how to get over them so you can build lasting relationships. Burdened by a stressful relationship? Unhealthy relationships can trigger feelings of anger, despair or self-doubt. They can create dwindling spirals of fights and seeking to make-up, or trying to “pin the blame” on someone or something. If you don’t find the RIGHT reasons, or select the correct sources of the problem, the problem can just get worse and worse. Whether in love or personal ties, with friends or at work, our life really IS affected by the quality of our relationships. Good ones can promote pleasure and survival while less optimum ones can lead to annoyance, anger, self-doubt, stress, or even affect our health and ability to survive well. Whether you are suffering from a divorce, or a painful break-up, don’t know who to trust (or who to CHOOSE) as a partner, friend, boss or employee - the anxiety of relationship troubles can really make a mess of things. Maybe you’ve suffered a betrayal, or are dealing with hostility or criticalness or invalidation. Dwindling relationships can involve destructive behavior, where we hurt those we love, or start succumbing to self-destructive thoughts, attitudes or behaviors that spiral out of control and affect much more than our immediate relationship. Past losses in love or life can affect how we act or react to new people and situations and hold us back from even starting to create new, possibly great relationships! How can one get back onto a saner course of action? Come to our Meetup, where we can introduce you to some of the knowledge, tools and techniques of the breakthroughs in the field of the mind that we can apply to this ever important area of life: human relationships! Break free from self imposed limitations Here we will discuss: • How to “erase” the trauma of past hurts and betrayals so that one isn’t always repeating past mistakes. • Why and how do the negative emotions of others affect you? • Why is my partner withdrawing and what can I do about it? • Why do we sometimes feel compelled to hurt the ones we love? • Fights & arguments - what's really behind them? • What underlies “corrosive criticism” or the need to invalidate self or others? • How one can stably change one’s outlook on life so they can affect positive change? • Where do compulsive destructive behaviors come from and what can be done about them? • How to form closer bonds & keep growing the relationships with the people you care about? • How to enhance one’s own ability to survive and create positive healthy relationships whether in love, family & friendships or in work, business or one’s career? Relationships can be hard and life itself IS challenging. Why not arm yourself with the knowledge and breakthroughs that have been made about the mind, mental reactions & interpersonal relationships, so that one has better awareness and control over themselves and life in general. Learn where painful experiences are “stored” and how they can unknowingly affect us. You will also find out how one can “erase” those past painful experiences so that one is free to move forward without being tripped up by the past. Learn too, about what can lead some people to become “toxic” personalities and how to identify those traits in others so you won’t be tripped up trusting the wrong person. Our free Meet-ups occur in a safe environment where one can learn, without fear of judgment or criticism, and without the recommendation of harmful mental techniques or therapies, just how YOU can get yourself onto a happier & more successful path: in love & in life. We look forward to having you join us! This class is sponsored by the Dianetics & Scientology Life Improvement Center of Central Ohio.

How to be a Better Communicator Communication is everything in life Sunday, 23 February at 2pm. You are only as successful as your ability to communicate. \- What if you could confidently talk to anyone? \- What if you had the ability to calmly control every conversation? \- What if you could close that sale\, ask for that date\, make new friends\, repair problematic relationships\, get that raise\, or effortlessly express any idea with confidence? You can! The secret to success relies on your ability or inability to effectively communicate. Attend a free seminar and gain a better ability to communicate.

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.
