On **19th March 2026 at 18:00**, we’re gathering again at **Teads office (Dunajska cesta 5, 3rd floor, Ljubljana)** for an evening dedicated purely to backend engineering 📅 **Date:** 19th March 2026 ⏰ **Time:** 6:00–8:00 PM 📍 **Location:** Dunajska cesta 5\, 1000 Ljubljana \| 3rd floor \(Teads office\) 🎟 **Admission:** Free 🍕 **Food and drinks:** Provided after the talks **🗣️ When Things Break at Scale: Production Failure Patterns from GitLab** *John Jarvis – Engineering Manager @ GitLab* What actually happens when things break in a large, high-traffic distributed system? In this session, John walks us through real production incidents from GitLab 2025–2026 operations. We’ll look at how failures are detected, how teams respond under pressure, and how systems recover. More importantly, we’ll extract patterns — the recurring failure modes and resilience strategies that backend engineers can apply in their own systems. If you care about reliability, observability, scaling, and learning from real outages instead of theoretical examples — this one’s for you. **🗣️ Backend in a Coffee Break** *Miha Jakovac – Software Engineering Manager, Predictum Inc.* Modern backend development often means spending more time wiring infrastructure than writing actual business logic. This talk shares the story behind **Nomirun**, a toolkit that rethinks how .NET backends are built and run. You’ll see how services can be created and executed in a fraction of the usual time without sacrificing modularity or cloud readiness. We’ll cover: * Reducing backend boilerplate to near zero * Switching between modular monolith and microservices instantly * Standardizing infrastructure without slowing down development * How AI agents are accelerating backend business logic implementation If you enjoy pragmatic tooling, cleaner architectures, and faster iteration loops — this session will resonate. **👥 Who should come?** Anyone working with or interested in backend technologies—developers, architects, students, or anyone eager to dive deeper into backend engineering. The sessions will be in English 🇬🇧. Expect deep backend discussions, production war stories, and practical engineering takeaways, followed by relaxed networking over pizza. See you on March 19th.

**Cloud Native Night Munich** AI agents are no longer just generating text — they are opening pull requests, deploying to Kubernetes, and making autonomous decisions inside production systems. But how do we secure, govern, and observe systems that are inherently non-deterministic? In this meetup, we explore practical patterns for fine-grained authorization of AI-driven DevOps workflows and robust observability strategies for autonomous agents. Expect concrete architectures, cloud-native tooling, and real-world lessons for building agentic AI you can actually trust in production. THIS MEETUP WILL BE HYBRID. **\|** [Zoom](https://qaware-de.zoom.us/s/89829670174) \*\*\* AGENDA \*\*\* * 6\.30 PM \| Doors open\. Grab some snacks & drinks\. * 7\.00 PM \| Welcome & Intro – **Start of hybrid meetup** * 7\.15 PM \| **Beyond API Keys: Fine-Grained AI Agent Authorization for DevOps**, Ankit Asthana (Cloud infrastructure Architect at SQUER), Tom Graupner (Head of Cloud & Platform Engineering as SQUER) * \~8:15 PM \| **Mastering Agentic Observability: Reliable Multi-Agent Systems with OpenTelemetry,** Nicolai Ommer (Software Architect at QAware) * afterwards: More snacks & drinks, and a lot of time for networking with all attendees and speakers. \*\*\* ABSTRACTS \*\*\* **Beyond API Keys: Fine-Grained AI Agent Authorization for DevOps**, Ankit Asthana (Cloud infrastructure Architect at SQUER), Tom Graupner (Head of Cloud & Platform Engineering as SQUER) AI agents are increasingly performing powerful DevOps actions like opening pull requests and deploying to Kubernetes. Yet most teams still rely on static tokens for authorization, which creates security and governance risks. In this talk, we present a practical pattern using OpenFGA and an Agent Gateway to enforce relationship-based, auditable authorization for AI-driven DevOps workflows—ensuring automation remains fast, controlled, and explainable. **Mastering Agentic Observability: Reliable Multi-Agent Systems with OpenTelemetry,** Nicolai Ommer (Software Architect at QAware) The software landscape is undergoing a paradigm shift. Agentic AI. While microservices operate deterministically, AI agents act probabilistically and often unpredictably, making them autonomous. This presents a significant challenge for platform engineers and DevOps teams. How can you monitor a service whose response varies with each call? How can you debug a 'hallucination' or an endless loop in decision-making? In this talk, we will demonstrate why traditional 'golden signals' (latency, traffic and errors) are insufficient for AI agents and explain how they must be expanded. We treat agents as the new microservices and use the well-established OpenTelemetry (OTel) standard to shed light on the inner workings of LLMs and agentic workforces. \*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\* Please comply with our [Code of Conduct](https://www.greenmanifesto.de/en/code-of-conduct).

Welcome, readers! Our March read is **_The Bean Trees by Barbara Kingsolver._** The story follows Taylor Greer, a young woman from rural Kentucky who leaves home for the West, only to find herself unexpectedly becoming the guardian of an abused Native American toddler named Turtle. In Tucson, Arizona, they form a makeshift family with a diverse group of people, including Guatemalan refugees and a single mother, exploring themes of motherhood, community, belonging, and finding hope in hardship. The story blends humor with serious issues, creating a story about finding family in unexpected places. Looking forward to discussing with everyone! We will meet at Zaftig Brewing Co in their event room in the back. We are welcome to bring in our own food, but **drinks must be purchased at the bar.** Happy reading! 📖

We are recruiting new group leaders for virtual men's groups! Our primary groups are outdoor movement groups, but we are launching virtual groups for the state of Ohio and beyond and the groups will move outside in the spring, creating room for men's groups, women's groups and coed groups all over the country. Read below to learn about our groups and click the links at the bottom to apply. ### **What is an Outdoor Empowerment Group?** Our Outdoor Movement & Community Empowerment Groups are simple, guided experiences designed to help people reconnect with nature, themselves, and others. We combine some form of movement (hike, walk, run, bike, yoga, workout) and meaningful conversation within a simple community circle to create a space where individuals can support each other while prioritizing mental and physical well-being. Whether you’re seeking stress relief, personal growth, or community, our groups offer everyone a unique and welcoming environment. ## **Why Join?** * **Improve Mental & Physical Well-Being** – Movement, nature, and supportive conversations reduce stress and promote balance. * **Feel Less Alone** – Build genuine connections with like-minded people in a safe, welcoming space. * **Gain Clarity & Perspective** – Step outside daily routines and into a space designed for personal growth and reflection. ## **The Ideal Group Leader** The ideal group leader * Has a born-in passion for mental health, movement, connecting with nature and building community. * Has 5 extra hours per week to dedicate to a meaningful cause for at least one year. Yes, you can leave any organization at any time and we can also ask you to leave, but we are building with legacy in mind and we need people who can commit and be ALL IN on this mission to build with us. * Is independently financially stable with the ability to volunteer with no expectation of pay. This is a deeply beautiful journey of service that all participants commit to at Speak Your Mind. * An ability to manage groups with high emotional intelligence and desire for human connection. * An ability to self-motivate and market/promote their group on Facebook and other social platforms. * Nature informed therapy or clinical therapists/psychologists a plus. ## **Our Impact**  Since launching, we have helped thousands find support, connection, and healing through our Outdoor Movement Groups. 100% of participants surveyed have reported: * A noticeable improvement in mental clarity and emotional well-being. * An increase in social connection and a sense of belonging. * Said they would return again. We believe mental health should be accessible, community-driven, and rooted in nature. Join us and take the first step toward a more connected, grounded, and supported version of yourself. ### **Why Our Groups are Donation-Based** Our Outdoor Movement Groups are made possible through a donation-based model. This approach allows us to keep our events accessible to everyone, regardless of financial circumstances, while also ensuring that we can continue expanding our reach. It’s a great way to pay it forward and support the growth of this beautiful mission!

We meet at lunch each week and each meeting follows a fairly organized agenda. First all participants pass their business cards around. Then each member and guest is invited to give a one-minute overview of their company and what is a perfect referral for the week. We always have a 10 minute presentation from one of the members about their business in more detail. And finally we pass referrals. You're welcome to visit. Nobody is ever put on the spot. Bring plenty of cards!
