An AWS Container Journey (AWS UG Nürnberg 04/26)
An AWS Container Journey (AWS UG Nürnberg 04/26)
**Hey fellow AWS enthusiasts! ✨** This April we welcome **[Philipp Hoyer](https://www.linkedin.com/in/philipp-hoyer-621555174/)**, Lead Engineer at Rackspace Technology. He'll walk us through a journey of AWS' popular containerization services Amazon ECS and Amazon EKS running on Fargate by discussing which fits best for which use case, where EKS can make you go nuts and when ECS might shines brighter - or vice versa. **📆 Tonight's Agenda** 19:00 - Welcoming **19:15 - Talk by Phillip** 20:15 - Networking Thanks to our friends at **[CodeCam:N](https://www.codecamp-n.com/)** who open their offices for us and sponsor food and drinks for this evening. Looking forward to seeing you 👋🏻 Nora & Frank \-\-\- The talk ⤵️ **An AWS Container Journey - The Good, The Bad and The Ugly featuring ECS and EKS** EKS on Fargate promises fully managed Kubernetes with zero node management—but the reality is often more complex than expected. This talk explores the journey of building a production workload on EKS Fargate, starting with the initial motivations and architectural decisions. It uncovers three non-obvious pitfalls that only surface during real-world implementation, including challenges with load balancing, EFS integration, and logging. For each case, the underlying issues and the required workarounds are dissected to reveal the hidden operational complexity behind the “serverless” promise. Based on these insights, the talk takes a critical look at whether ECS on Fargate would have been the simpler alternative. It provides a concise overview of ECS, highlights its own limitations, and delivers a direct comparison between ECS and EKS. The session concludes with clear, experience-driven guidance on when to choose which service—helping teams avoid costly assumptions and make better architectural decisions in AWS container environments. The speaker⤵️ Philipp is a Lead Engineer at Rackspace Technology who enjoys turning complex cloud architectures into solutions that actually work in practice. He started in software development, moved through the DevOps world of pipelines, containers, and Kubernetes, and eventually specialized in AWS. He has built and operated cloud solutions ranging from big data and streaming platforms to containerized and serverless workloads. With experience in both insurance and automotive, his focus today is on real-world cloud challenges—especially the ones that don’t show up in the docs. Get in contact with Philipp on [LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/in/philipp-hoyer-621555174/) \-\-\- **Please note:** At the event, photos and videos will be taken for marketing purposes both by our hosts and our location sponsors. We try to offer a hybrid experience by providing a video stream of the talk. There will be no recording published after the event. Please also keep in mind, that we try our best effort to provide a good streaming experience. We don't offer a professional stream, so delays, technical issues or other interference are a matter to be tolerated.
English Bookclub Maiden Voyage: "The Shipping News" by Annie Proulx
English Bookclub Maiden Voyage: "The Shipping News" by Annie Proulx
Do you love to talk about books, and you want to practice your English? Perhaps your German isn't so good, but you are itching to share a great book you read with others. Come join the new Bookclub in English! Join our maiden voyage! Our first book selection is "The Shipping News" by Annie Proulx. I hope you love this book! Tell us all about it on our 13th April 2026 meeting! We meet on the second Monday of each month in a positive and welcoming space in the Chur Library: Stadtbibliothek Chur Grabenstrasse 28 7000 Chur After a brief round of introductions, we review and discuss the selected book of the month, in English! What did you think of the writing style? Did the author deliver a hidden message? Were you surprised to identify strongly with one of the characters? Let's talk about it. The discussion will be gently moderated to keep participants engaged and focused, to ensure a break, and to keep the meeting between 90 and 120 minutes, depending on the density of the book under discussion. As the discussion winds down, time is allotted for participants to propose and select next month's book. Perhaps the preceding discussion inspired you to recommend a relevant follow-up book. Or you would like to mix it up and switch to different genre, or perhaps to a lighter book of short stories, or poetry, or manga. Once the participants select the next book, they may purchase it at a 10% discount at Schuler Bücher.

**Integrating LLMs into Existing Applications: The Boring Approach** by [Luca Pircher](https://www.linkedin.com/in/lucapircher/) Or: the approach that actually worked for us. This talk covers how we found a use case we felt confident automating, the small bets we made along the way, and what we deliberately chose not to do. We'll share what worked, what didn't, and what we're still figuring out. No rewrites, no hype, no guarantees it'll work for anyone else. **Teaching PHPStan New Tricks** by [Christian Sciberras](https://www.linkedin.com/in/sciberras/) Extend PHPStan with custom rules and extensions to enforce domain-specific constraints and catch what default analysis misses. Make static analysis work for your codebase—not just against it.

Free In-Person Events: How to Let Go of the Past and Move Forward
Free In-Person Events: How to Let Go of the Past and Move Forward
The emotional pain from past bad experiences easily lingers in the present, making it hard to enjoy life and create your future. Even when you think you've moved on, the negative emotions can be triggered, sending you back into the pain of that experience. And we are talking about pain; emotions such as grief, depression, anxiety, fear (or terror), boiling anger, simmering resentment, feelings of shame, blaming and regret can leave you incapacitated to a greater or lesser degree. In this local event we will be discussing the reasons why these past bad experiences have the power to affect you long after they occurred. We'll go over why the emotional pain can be so strong. We'll also discuss some simple solutions to overcome your emotional pain and be free to fully enjoy your life again. Examples of painful experiences include: * A broken relationship or divorce. * Death or loss of a loved one. * Death of a pet. * A sudden shock or bad news. * A betrayal. * Being part of an abusive relationship. * A bad injustice. * Loss of a job, position or business. * A grave illness or injury. The negative emotions from these experiences don't just go away on their own. But the good news is there is a way to clear them out of your way. 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 sponsored the Dianetics & Scientology Self-Improvement Center.
