We also have two awesome speakers that will fill the night with AWS content as usual! 18:30 - Warming up and networking chat 18:45 - Intro by AWS UG Berlin & Exasol 19:00 - 19:40 - **Philipp Hoyer // An AWS Container Journey - The Good, The Bad and The Ugly featuring ECS and EKS** EKS on Fargate promises fully managed Kubernetes without EC2 management, but it comes with more hidden complexity than expected. In this talk, I compare running containers on AWS Fargate with EKS versus ECS based on real project experience. Philipp is Senior AWS DevOps Engineer at Rackspace Technology, where he helps automotive customers design and operate reliable cloud and container platforms on AWS. 19:40 - 20:00 - Network break with snacks & drinks 20:00 - 20:40 - **Piotr Pabis // How we cut ECS Startup by 30% - SOCI Deep Dive** "What are docker images anyway? How are they formed? What is a other container registry? I want to go from first principles - presenting TAR files, composing an image, combining it with a JSON manifest and explaining how SOCI technology improves the speed of lazy loading required files and layers. HTTP range requests, GZIP table of contents, many things. I will try to make it understandable for the casual Docker user as well as nerds who want to know how this works under the hood." Piotr is a Senior Platform Engineer at About You and a well-known Community Builder in AWS. He works mostly improving legacy projects, Terraform and migrating old stuff to ECS. =================================================== **Very Important: There is no "waitlist" for our regular sessions.** However, there are limited seats available.

EN: **Film Screening at Babylon Berlin** **“Nanoplastics – Threat to Life”** March 7 \| 2:00–6:30 PM This documentary explores one of the most urgent environmental and public health issues of our time: micro- and nanoplastics — invisible, yet already present in our environment and even in our bodies. Nanoplastics affect our health, ecosystems, and climate processes. The film brings together current scientific findings and highlights what makes nanoplastics particularly dangerous: their ability to accumulate electrostatic charge — a largely overlooked factor with far-reaching consequences. 🧬 What impact does this have on our health? 🌍 What does this mean for our future? A global environmental problem that urgently requires societal responses. 🎬 Language: English with German subtitles A discussion and Q&A session will follow the screening. 🎟 Free admission 📩 Please register in advance 📍 Address: Rosa-Luxemburg-Straße 30, 10178 Berlin (Mitte, opposite the Volksbühne) Link to the free tickets at Babylon Berlin: https://babylonberlin.eu/film/9776-nanoplastik-die-unsichtbare-lebensgefahr?highlight=WyJuYW5vcGxhc3RpayJd DE: Filmvorführung im Babylon Berlin „Nanoplastik – Die unsichtbare Lebensgefahr“ (Nanoplastics. Threat to Life) Am 7.03. von 14:00–18:30 Uhr Die Dokumentation beleuchtet eines der dringendsten Umwelt- und Gesundheitsthemen unserer Zeit: Mikro- und Nanoplastik – unsichtbar, aber längst in unserer Umwelt und sogar in unserem Körper angekommen. Nanoplastik beeinflusst unsere Gesundheit, Ökosysteme und Klimaprozesse. Der Dokumentarfilm fasst aktuelle wissenschaftliche Erkenntnisse zusammen und zeigt, was Nanoplastik besonders gefährlich macht: seine Fähigkeit, elektrostatische Ladung zu akkumulieren, ein bislang wenig beleuchteter Faktor mit weitreichenden Auswirkungen. 🧬 Welche Auswirkungen hat das auf unsere Gesundheit? 🌍 Was bedeutet das für unsere Zukunft? Ein globales Umweltproblem, das dringend gesellschaftliche Antworten braucht. 🎬 Sprache: Englisch mit deutschen Untertiteln Im Anschluss gibt es eine Diskussions- und Fragerunde. 🎟 Der Eintritt ist frei. 📩Um kurze Voranmeldung wird gebeten. 📍 Adresse: Rosa-Luxemburg-Straße 30, 10178 Berlin (Mitte, gegenüber der Volksbühne) Link zu den freien Tickets im Babylon Berlin: https://babylonberlin.eu/film/9776-nanoplastik-die-unsichtbare-lebensgefahr?highlight=WyJuYW5vcGxhc3RpayJd
