Hosted by Zalando Sponsored by incidentist.io (and last year by SOK.fi) **Agenda** 17:00 Doors open 17:30 Welcome / DevOps Finland & Zalando 17:45 A perfect storm: how a tiny change in a CMS service authentication once broke up the Zalando Fashion Store? / Uri Savelchev, Senior DevOps Engineer @ Zalando Finland 18:30 \*\*\* break \*\*\* 18:45 Start SLOw! - How to ru(i)n your services using Service Level Objectives / Vitek Urbanec, Chief Resiliency & Governance Consultant @ incidentist.io 19:30 Free discussion 20:30 Doors close **A perfect storm: how a tiny change in a CMS service authentication once broke up the Zalando Fashion Store?** Is it possible that a little mistake in update of a CMS, that is pretty far from the "hot path" and the customer traffic, could break up the operations and lead to a high-profile incident? I'll tell you a thrilling story about one of the most puzzling incidents I have ever dealt with. For the last fifteen years I'm specializing in DevOps/SRE and Platform Engineering. **Start SLOw! - How to ru(i)n your services using Service Level Objectives** In the vibe-coded world, it's essential to know when your change broke your company's stream of income (again), and how much more of that can your customers take before they vibe-code their own SaaS (with blackjack & webhooks). Calculating good_events / total_events \* 100% is just the beginning. You've done the calculation, you've set a made-up arbitrary objective, but what do you do next? In this talk, we dig beyond the trivial topics, our starting line will be "we already have the SLOs, what now?" Vitek Urbanec is a Chief Resiliency & Governance Consultant at incidentist.io, who has spent the better part of 13 years making sure other people's production systems don't catch fire — and occasionally helping them understand why they did. He's worked across industries in fintech, gaming, and SaaS, most recently embedded with a platform team, helping squads turn uptime feelings into actionable SLOs. **Streaming:** https://app.sli.do/event/4456cs3cfWgSemSQaYXVm4 **Join our Slack and other channels:** https://www.devopsfinland.org/ **LinkedIn:** https://www.linkedin.com/company/102919614

That is one of the reasons people like our Finnish language café: you get to practice Finnish with Finns :) The events are completely free and there is always a native speaker to facilitate the conversation and to help find the right words. The coffee is good too ☕😋🇦🇹 Tervetuloa!

Welcome to our **April** meetup hosted in collaboration with the non-profit **[Founders House Helsinki](https://founders-house.fi)**! Schedule: **17:00 Doors open** **17:00 - 17:45** **Networking** **17:45 - 18:00** **Host & organizers - Welcome and practicalities** **18:00 - 18:30** **Software Supply Chain Attack Vectors when using Generative AI** by a Software Engineer at CRACI **18:30 - 19:00 Break, networking** **19:00 - 19:30** **Right-sized Kubernetes Access Control with Conditional Authorization, by Lucas Käldström, Kubernetes contributor** Have you ever struggled writing least-privilege access control policies for Kubernetes? Are you concerned about the wide permissions of installed Helm charts? Do you manage to regularly audit who has access to sensitive resources? In this talk, Kubernetes contributor Lucas introduces you to open source tools that help you on your defense in depth journey for securing the Kubernetes API surface. They demonstrate how to right-size your RBAC rules semi-automatically, audit who can access sensitive resources, and check whether policy refactors are correct. This talk is part of a journey to improve Kubernetes access control in core. However, to make this initiative successful, user feedback is needed throughout the process. You’ll learn about the planned Kubernetes Conditional Authorization feature, which will make authoring right-sized policies easier. **19:30 - 20:00 Break, networking** **20:00 - 20:30: The LLM Gateway Is an Ingress Controller. Treat It Like One, by Juan Antonio Osorio, Software Engineer, Stacklok** The AI gateway has quietly become the most valuable credential aggregator in the enterprise. One process holds OpenAI, Anthropic, Bedrock, and Gemini keys for every team. The March 2026 LiteLLM TeamPCP supply-chain compromise showed what that costs: one backdoored PyPI release, every credential in the gateway exposed in minutes. This talk is about what you do before that lands. Every LLM gateway is an ordered pipeline, and the security of the pipeline is a property of its ordering, not of any individual stage. The worked example is upstream Envoy AI Gateway (CNCF project under the Envoy umbrella); the lens applies to any gateway that fronts LLMs. **20:30 - 21:00 Networking** **NOTE:** The event will be live-streamed on the Cloud Native Nordics YouTube. **NOTE:** Signing up for the event gets you a seat at the onsite event. **NOTE:** Pictures might be taken during the event and be published to this meetup page. Also there will be a livestream during the event which picks up audio from the space. If you do not want to be included in any pictures, please let the organizers know.

【IMPORTANT SUMMARY】 * The purpose of social games is to know some people, do some exercise and enjoy the games together with others. Winning and getting points is not the focus of this session. Please play with consideration to your opponents' level. * Please purchase your slot through this link [https://7538e9.myshopify.com/](https://7538e9.myshopify.com/) 【SIGN-UP SYSTEM】 * Please sign up and pay through this link. [https://7538e9.myshopify.com/products/saturday-badminton](https://7538e9.myshopify.com/products/saturday-badminton) * We don't use the signup system on Meetup.com anymore. (Neither the waiting list) * It says this event is full on this meetup page, because I didn't open any slots here for you to sign up. You have to check this [sign-up page](https://7538e9.myshopify.com/products/social-game) to see if there is still a slot available there. * The background of using an external sign-up and payment system is because Meetup.com introduced a service fee to increase 21% of the fee in May 2023, and we want to reduce this cost. 【FEE and REFUND POLICY】 * Fee includes courts and plastic shuttles. Please sign up and pay before you come. NO refund if you do not cancel until 48 hours before the event. * Racket: bring one or rent one at the counter. * You can put a comment to sell your slot after the deadline of refund, or sell your slot in our whatsapp group. * No matter the reason is sickness, accident or anything, the group or I will not afford the cost caused by your absence. * Of course you CAN'T ask me, "Can I sign up for free for next week because I didn't come to use my slot this week?". Please remember, the court booked for you was there and it costs money. The court doesn't simply become "free of charge", just because you didn't come to use it. 【COMMUNICATION】 * Communication: our whatsapp group [https://chat.whatsapp.com/JJQbJlisbcj5YDnlcSu347](https://chat.whatsapp.com/JJQbJlisbcj5YDnlcSu347) * There are too many spams, so I only accept +358 number to join whatsapp group. Numbers from other countries will all be rejected. 【OTHERS】 * Please always keep 1 meter away from those courts where people are playing. Never step into the corners of other courts! If I see you do this, I probably will yell at you! * If you have some questions, you can put your questions in the comments on the event page. People will respond. * We play double games to 21 points. After each game, please let those who are waiting to play. Feel free to play with whoever you want, but please avoid playing with the same people all the time. * If you are new to badminton, please Google basic badminton rules in advance. Serve rules, double rules and point counting rules. You are always welcome to ask anyone in our group. Most of our members are more than happy to help you. * Badminton activity is organized for non-profit purpose, but I take a small fee for my work. * Want to restring your racket? I can do restring for you. €24 including the string. Please get contact with Ken.

Tired of surface-level networking? This is something different.

No pretending. Just real people helping each other move forward. 🎯 **Who this is for:** * People building, creating, or restarting something * Entrepreneurs, freelancers, creatives * Those who value depth, honesty, and growth 🎟 **Spots are limited to 6 people.** Your RSVP is only confirmed after ticket purchase.

It’s time to take control of your mental health. How do you get rid of stress, anxiety and uncertainty? These emotions are buried deep in your reactive mind. Find out what the reactive mind is, and in the process find yourself. Have you ever suffered from a traumatic experience, a deep loss or been through a painful breakup? Has your ability to communicate suffered as a result? And after that, even though you "moved on" did you find that things were never quite the same? Have you ever looked at childhood photos, or reminisced your early life and wondered where that happiness and spark went? Are your emotions out of your own control? Have you ever felt, even if you aren’t aware of it, that possibly you are getting in your own way of your happiness and success? How does this affect your self-confidence? Find out what is at the root of all stress, anxiety, depression and self-doubt. Find out how and why you hold yourself back from achieving your goals and having the life you have dreamed of. As soon as you learn what is at the root of these unwanted conditions, you’ll see it is something you can DO something about. You will not be labeled or categorized at this MeetUp.

Some trained COUNT volunteers work together once a month at RMH (http://www.rmhc-centralohio.org/volunteer.php) as Housewarmers (usually on the 1st Sunday from 1 – 5 PM). Some schedule other shifts at their convenience. You may try this out with less fuss by following a "Fast track" or go through the normal process. Fast track • Arrange a time to shadow a COUNT volunteer. Call Dave Nohle at 614-268-9558 (cell). • Show up and try it out. • Complete application, etc. later. Normal process • Complete an online application (http://rmhc-centralohio.org/volunteer/). • Attend orientation in advance. • At orientation you will complete forms agreeing to keep family/patient info private and allowing a background check and tour the facility. • Complete one training shift. Daily shifts are: morning 9 AM - 1 PM, afternoon 1 - 5 PM and evening 5 - 9 PM. • Schedule shifts online using the on the RMH scheduling system (http://www.volgistics.com/ex/portal.dll/?FROM=32895). The Ronald McDonald House (RMH) provides housing and meals for families with sick children. The Columbus RMH is the largest in the world with 137 rooms. COUNT has been volunteering there since May 2014. Housewarmers work with RMH guests to provide a home-like environment - greet, assist with family needs, answer phones, give tours, assist with checkin/checkout, prepare guest rooms after checkout, clean facility, laundry, restock supplies and staff the front desk. RMH Housewarmers volunteer at least one four-hour shift a month. All Housewarmers must complete an application and agree to a background check before they can be full fledged volunteers.

Feeling down? Sometimes depressed? Can't focus? Negativity & stress? Recent losses? Creativity in career and personal life hindered by mental blocks? Sometimes we never fully recover from traumatic experiences. Whether it was yesterday, last week or a year ago, traumatic experiences - a loss of a loved one, losing a job, a breakup - can leave you scarred. You talk about it and feel a little better, but it never goes away. After you hang up the phone, it's still there; the sadness, the cloud, the over-thinking, the worry, the guilt. You try to focus, but you're blocked. You try to look forward into new experiences, new relationships but a cloud is hanging over you, casting a shadow on what you once considered a bright, cheerful future. What happened to your courage? Your strength of character? You're 'why not' attitude? Whoever said 'time heals' must have had a special time machine, because after weeks, months, years, you're wondering - when exactly does that kick in? Sometimes it seems like drinking or drugs are the way to go. But they wear off, and now the problem is still there with added side effects from the drugs. At this free local Meetup event we will talk about: * What causes grief, anxiety and depression to become chronic. * Is it possible to regain your joy and happiness even after traumatic experiences? * How to break away from negativity and focus on the future * What are the steps to take to get control of your mind and your emotions? Learn about a safe, gentle, do-it-yourself counseling that can be done in the comfort of your own home. Let's explore safe, effective solutions for healing from traumatic experiences. Be sure to click on the red "Attend" button below to come to the event. We look forward to seeing you there. This group is sponsored by the Dianetics & Scientology Life Improvement Center.
