*Pepijn Schoen*
**From ClickOps to Scalable Platform**
For engineers and engineering leaders, on culture and decision making.
Abstract
We ran everything in one Azure subscription. Leads and sales, installations and steering energy systems. Everyone had access. Most resources were created manually. It was unclear who owned what.
As the tech org grew from 100 to 300 people, reinventing security and scaling individually stopped working.
We'll cover how we approached platform building as gardeners rather than architects: observing what already works, replicating it, and letting rituals emerge before encoding them. We'll look at some mistakes we made along the way and what we learned from each.
*Dayana Mick*
**It works… but no one understands it: The hidden problem in DevOps**
For several years, I kept asking the same question to senior developers, staff engineers, and mentors: “What is a build?” I rarely got a clear answer. Not because people didn’t know, but because the mental model had faded somewhere between Terraform, Ansible, Kubernetes, and “just run this command.”
At some point, I realized I could run pipelines, deploy services, and fix things just enough to move forward, but explaining what was actually happening was much harder. And I was not the only one.
This talk is about a pattern I’ve seen across every company I’ve worked at. Systems that work, but are not really understood. Teams running platform commands from memory. Platform teams becoming bottlenecks. Incidents where even experienced engineers hesitate. And situations where people rely on tools without a clear sense of what is actually happening underneath. With AI, this is only accelerating.
This is a talk for anyone who has ever copy-pasted a command, watched it work, and decided not to ask further questions. It is especially relevant for junior and mid-level engineers navigating DevOps complexity, and for teams who are trying to scale tooling without losing shared understanding.

Is the Design Process Really "Dead"? | Product Management Society x Miro Meetups
***🔗 Link to registration: [https://luma.com/s8mfiusl](https://luma.com/s8mfiusl)***
We’re excited to invite you to a special edition of our next meetup - for the first time ever, Product Management Society Berlin is teaming up with Miro 🤝
This session will explore a timely topic: the future of the design process in an era of rapidly increasing production speed. While some chief designers at major companies have declared the design process “dead” or no longer fit for today’s pace, others strongly disagree. What changes when prototypes can be created in minutes? What are the limits? What remains essential?
In the first part, we’ll open the floor to different perspectives from across the room. In the second part, we’ll work together to explore and shape ideas for a more resilient design process.
Whether you're a PM, designer, or simply curious, you’re very welcome to join the discussion and contribute your ideas.
👉 Spots are limited - register on Luma using the link above ^
Looking forward to seeing you there!

**📅 18:30 - Introduction & What's new at Datadog? (15 min.)**
**🎙️**Speaker: Marcel Drechsler, User Group Leader & Product Owner Internal Developer Platform @ **[andsafe](https://andsafe.de)**
Introduction into the evening and highlights of Datadog's recent new features and products.
**📅 18:45 - Powering Platform Engineering through Datadog (30 min.)**
**🎙️**Speaker: Marcel Drechsler, User Group Leader & Product Owner Internal Developer Platform @ **[andsafe](https://andsafe.de)**
In the rapidly changing landscape of Platform Engineering, Datadog has evolved from a monitoring tool into a comprehensive foundation for Internal Developer Platforms (IDPs). This session explores the journey of scaling observability and security into a unified platform strategy that reduces developer friction. We will dive into how Datadog’s expanding ecosystem provides the essential building blocks for modern self-service infrastructure. Attendees will learn how to leverage these integrated features to build a more resilient and transparent developer experience. Discover how to transform your Datadog instance into a strategic asset for your platform’s success.
**📅 19:15 - Logs as a First-Class Citizen - How Lightspeed Commerce evolved logs to unlock the full power of Datadog**
**(30 min.)**
**🎙️**Speaker: Rein Martha, Staff Software Engineer, Lightspeed Commerce
When Lightspeed started with Datadog, we didn't begin with traces or metrics — we began with evolving our logs. Raw, unstructured, and full of noise. The first step was making them worth keeping: trimming duplicates, removing what no one ever read, and transforming what remained into structured, queryable signals.
That foundation changed everything. Once logs became first-class — with clean attributes, consistent structure, and a clear purpose for every line — the rest of the observability stack followed naturally. Monitors built on log queries. Dashboards that actually meant something on incidents. Metrics generated directly from log attributes, giving us long-term retention without the cost of keeping everything raw.
**📅 19:45 - Best Practices for Alerting with Datadog (30 min.)**
**🎙️**Speaker: Santiago Gomez Saez, Datadog ambassador & Principal Cloud Architect @ **[dxone](https://www.dx.one.gmbh/)**
Operational excellence is the main objective of SRE teams. Focusing on alerting, this talk shares common pitfalls and best practices on how and when to alert when incidents occur. In addition, we show how to self-heal in some cases requiring no manual intervention.

Maintainable Frontends for Symfony & Why every CMS needs MCP
Hello fellow Symfonians,
we are thrilled to announce the next user group meeting of the year, featuring two insightful talks that you **won't want to miss**!
This time we are hosted by c-base (Rungestrasse 20
10179 Berlin).
Come by and enjoy an evening of learning, networking, and socializing with fellow Symfony and PHP developers.
**Agenda:**
18:30: Doors open
19:00: Welcome and Introduction
19:20: **Talk 1: "Maintainable Frontends for Symfony" by Daniela Berger**
19:50: Break & Snack
20:00: **Talk 2: "Why every CMS needs MCP" by Roland Golla**
20:40: Socializing
**Talk Details:**
**Talk 1: "Maintainable Frontends for Symfony" by Daniela Berger**
In many web projects we find more backend devs than frontend devs, sometimes significantly so.
This often leads to devs with little frontend experience being asked to do frontend development anyway, and they often end up shaping their frontends in ways that will make their lives unnecessarily hard.
One common result are frontends that are functionally unmaintainable because each change - whether it is a new feature or a bugfix - requires implementing an exception to existing code, thus making the code increasingly and unnecessarily complex.
This is especially upsetting because with a bit of experience it is possible to implement light-weight frontend components with equally elegant CSS and JavaScript that are easy to extend and to adapt to new requirements without digging oneself into a deeper hole with each PR.
And since Symfony is making frontend development steadily more accessible to backend devs with Symfony US / Stimulus, this is a good time to take a closer look at \*how\* to structure these frontends.
This talk aims to a) introduce core frontend concepts that backend devs might not be aware of, b) show best frontend practices both on the code level and on the architecture level, c) show a few common mistakes that can be found in inexpertly implemented frontends, and c) introduce tools that will make consistent frontend development easier.
**Talk 2: "Why every CMS needs MCP" by Roland Golla**
Your content team already works in ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini. Yet the content still lands in the CMS backend manually, clumsily, slowly. MCP changes that. One sentence in chat becomes a published article. No copy pasting, no formatting, no clicking.
And the content ranks. On Google, on ChatGPT, on Perplexity, on whatever comes next. Good content written by AI directly into the CMS goes live faster and gets found.
I show you the MCP plugin for Sulu CMS: open source, built on Symfony, ready to deploy. But this is not about implementation. It is about the three questions every content team must ask: Why does every website need MCP? What does good AI content look like? And why is conversational content management better than anything you click together in a backend?
MCP makes content creation as easy as chat. If you can write, you can publish. No CMS training, no workflow, no waiting.
Live on stage: a complete workflow from idea in chat to published article in Sulu CMS. Everything open source on GitHub.
Don't miss these insightful talks, engaging discussions, and networking opportunities. We can't wait to see you at the **April Symfony User Group**!"
If you have any questions or accessibility requirements, please reach out to us. Also, if your company wants to be the next host for the User Group, just let us know!
Mobile with Mendix: Current Capabilities, Future Direction
Join us in Berlin for an evening dedicated to the present and future of mobile development with Mendix.
In the first session, a developer from BlueBerk will share real-world insights from a recently completed large-scale Mendix Native project. The talk will cover the current state of native development, common limitations teams face today, and practical workarounds that proved successful in production.
In the second session, a Product Manager from Mendix will provide a forward-looking perspective on mobile development with the Mendix platform. He will discuss the available mobile options today and what’s coming next, helping you understand how to choose the right approach for your project. The presentation will compare native mobile and Progressive Web App (PWA) strategies and introduce the PWA Wrapper as a flexible and practical alternative for many scenarios.
Whether you are currently building mobile apps or planning your next Mendix project, this meetup will give you valuable hands-on experience, architectural guidance, and a clear view of the platform’s mobile

What If Your AI Could Be a Team? - Chad Green
**Important time note:** Please plan on arriving between 5:30 and 6:00 as the elevators lock after 6 and you'll need to message us and we'll need to come get you.
The building address is 4450 Bridge Park
The entrance is 6620 Mooney St, Suite 400
You will need to scan your ID at the door to get a visitor badge.
**Abstract**
GitHub Copilot is powerful, but what if you could scale from a solo AI assistant to an entire team of specialized agents working in parallel? This session introduces Squad: an open-source framework for multi-agent orchestration that lets you define teams of AI agents with specific roles, responsibilities, and expertise.
We'll progress from Copilot basics to the Copilot CLI, explore how Agents add autonomy, and see how Instructions and Skills let you customize agent behavior. Then, the climax: a live demo where a Squad team of 3 agents (Lead, Developer, Tester) stands up and builds a working application in real-time, showcasing true multi-agent collaboration.
Whether you're new to AI or exploring how to scale your use of Copilot, this session will show you what's possible when agents work as a team.

Columbus Code & Coffee 86 @ Improving
Columbus Code & Coffee is an inclusive, informal co-working session. People of all skill levels attend, and we love it that way. Many people (optionally) bring projects to work on, and many other people (optionally) socialize the entire time. It's entirely up to you!
**What to Expect at the Intro Circle**
\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~
Near the beginning of the event (1:30 pm), we do a standup:
* Organizer announcements, updates, and logistics
Round 1 - (7 secs max):
* Your name
* What you're working on
* What you can help others with
Round 2:
* Community events you wanna plug. If none, that's cool too.
Round 3:
* Job opportunities you're hiring for OR announce that you are looking for one. If none, that's cool.
After the introduction circle, everything is self-organized! Feel free to work alone, pair up, attend one of our workshops/presentations, or mingle!
