Cloud Platform Engineering London - #16

Speaker: **[Sean M. Tracey](https://www.linkedin.com/in/seanmtracey/),** Founding Technologist at Mitchell Technologies Session Title: I've built a Cloud Platform, and You Can Too! Description: How do you build a cloud platform? Where do you even start with something like that? Can one person do it on their own? Well, it starts with getting a hold of a bunch of computers, and then it gets a little more complicated from there. In this talk, I'll cover everything I've learned from building fledgling.cloud - a PaaS Cloud built specifically for developers and their side-projects, and how you can build one too! Speaker: **[Immo Hüneke](https://www.linkedin.com/in/immo-huneke-27b121/)**, Expert DevOps Engineer at Zühlke Engineering Session Title: The Platform Plane - an instant software factory Description: The Platform Plane simplifies your development process, boosts productivity, and helps you deliver better software faster while integrating all your existing technology. This presentation and demo will show how Zühlke employs its Internal Development Platform to be productive from Day One of a customer project, "shift left" and let developers concentrate on developing.

In-Person Event: The Answers to Depression & Anxiety
In-Person Event: The Answers to Depression & Anxiety
This is an in-person meeting. At this meeting you will get answers to depression and anxiety. Find out the source of them and how to get rid of them. Did you know that unwanted emotions like anxiety, depression, unhappiness, loneliness, hopelessness, anger, fear, or feelings of irritation don’t just fall on you for no reason. They are not random occurrences that simply happen to people's minds. They are definitely not due to a chemical imbalance in your brain from some nebulous chemical reaction "by chance". Your negative emotions are the symptoms of the painful experiences that you have which are not healed, and which are still affecting you. The effects of these painful experiences are exacerbated by the pressures or difficulties of the other problems in your life. 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. Be sure to click on the red "Attend" button below to come to this local event. We look forward to seeing you there. This group is created by the Hubbard Dianetics Foundation of Central Ohio and Church of Scientology of Central Ohio.
