Project Drasi
Projekt Drasi ist ein noch ganz frisches Open Source Projekt von Microsoft, das den Gedanken des Complex Event Processings neu aufgreift. Dabei geht es im Kern darum, Datenveränderungen in Softwaresystemen zu erkennen und darauf entsprechend reagieren zu können. In neu zu entwickelnden Systemen würde man dies mit Event Sourcing oder technischen Lösungen "from Scratch" realisieren, aber was ist mit Bestandssystemen? Wie schafft man es dort, die auftretenden Veränderungen zu erfassen und vor allem, warum möchte man darauf reagieren?
Ich möchte in diesem Talk zeigen, wie man mit Hilfe von Drasi, ein Monolith Legacy System in ein Micro Service System einbetten oder umwandeln kann.

!!NEW LOCATION!! Datamonster Berlin - Janek Fellien: Projekt Drasi
... english version below
Liebe Datamonster und Freunde des gepflegten Datenstroms.
Alles neu macht 2026... Und wir starten mit einem Knall ins neue Jahr: wir sind ab sofort in einer **neuen Location!**
Unsere Freunde von b.telligent haben uns freundlicherweise die **Berlin Bytes** vermittelt, die uns ab sofort in ihrem Büro in der Backfabrik am Prenzlauer Berg willkommen heißen werden.
Und zum ersten Termin in der neuen Location gehört natürlich auch ein herausragender Sprecher und den haben wir mit Janek Fellien gefunden. Sein Thema ist das Projekt Drasi

Online teilnehmen könnt ihr unter folgendem [Link](https://teams.microsoft.com/meet/34859473575613?p=dZmKkYBDnMGEltFDhK), wir empfehlen euch aber natürlich wärmstens, mit uns die neue Location für die Berliner Datamonster einzuweihen.
Es freuen sich

Dear data monsters and friends of well-crafted data streams,
Everything is new in 2026… and we’re starting the new year with a bang: from now on, we have a **new location**!
Our friends at b.telligent have kindly connected us with **Berlin Bytes**, who will be welcoming us from now on at their office in the Backfabrik in Prenzlauer Berg.
And of course, the first event at the new location calls for an outstanding speaker—and we’ve found one in Janek Fellien. His topic is the Drasi project.
Project Drasi is a very new open-source project from Microsoft that revisits the idea of Complex Event Processing. At its core, it is about detecting data changes in software systems and being able to react to them accordingly. In newly developed systems, this would typically be implemented using event sourcing or technical solutions built “from scratch.” But what about existing systems? How can changes be captured there—and, more importantly, why would you want to react to them?
In this talk, I want to demonstrate how Drasi can be used to embed or transform a monolithic legacy system into a microservices system.
You can join online via the following [link](https://teams.microsoft.com/meet/34859473575613?p=dZmKkYBDnMGEltFDhK), but of course we warmly recommend that you celebrate the inauguration of the new location for the Berlin Data Monsters with us in person.
Looking forward to it,
Markus & Ben

Gewaltfreie Kommunikation (GfK) - Ein Einführungsworkshop
**💶 Wertschätzungsbeitrag: 10-20 Euro (nach eigenen Möglichkeiten)**
**Du möchtest Deine Freundschaften, Partnerschaft & Arbeitsbeziehungen verbessern? Dieser Worskhop kann ein großer Schritt dazu sein.**
In diesem Einführungs-Workshop machen wir praktische Übungen aus der Gewaltfreien Kommunikation (GFK).
Gewaltfreie Kommunikation ist eine der effektivsten Methoden zum Lösen von Konflikten, Aufbau von Vertrauen und wertschätzender Kommunikation auf Augenhöhe - in allen unseren Beziehungen.
.
.
**💎 Um folgende Themen geht es an diesem Abend:**
* Wie du offen und ehrlich sagen kannst, was in dir vorgeht – und trotzdem in Kontakt mit anderen bleibst
* Wie du klar und konkret für deine Bedürfnisse einstehen kannst
* Wie Konflikte zu mehr Verbindung führen können
* Wie Empathie uns hilft, mit Wut, Schmerz, Angst und Verletzung umzugehen
* und mehr ...
.
.
**👱🏼♂️ Zum Trainer: Lorenz Kaplick**
Ich (Lorenz) bin Psychologe und zertifizierter Mediator. Seit 7 Jahren beschäftige ich mich intensiv mit den Themen Dialog, Beziehungen & Konfliktklärung. Ich habe mit Trainer:innen aus Europa und der Welt gelernt und zusammengearbeitet.
Die GFK hat mein Leben grundlegend verändert. Sie hat mir eine Hoffnung für die Menschheit gegeben, die ich vorher nicht hatte.
Deshalb freue ich mich, diese Art der Welt zu begegnen mit anderen zu teilen. Das mache ich durch meine Arbeit als Organisationsentwickler, Mediator – und durch Workshops wie diesen.

**⏰ Die Türen sind offen ab 18:15 Uhr. Komm am besten schon 18.15 Uhr:** Mantel aufhängen, Toilette, eine Runde schwatzen und los ...
.
.
**❓ Darf ein zweites Mal kommen?**
Ja, sehr gern. Ich halte es sogar für sinnvoll, mehrfach zu kommen, wenn Dir der Workshop gefällt: Das Thema vertiefen, die eigenen Beobachtungen aus den letzten Wochen verarbeiten und sich mit neuen & alten Bekannten über das Thema weiter austauschen.
.
.
**🏠 Der Veranstaltungsraum**
* Wir haben einen wunderschönen Raum im Kieztreff in Berlin Mitte (mit sauberen Toiletten!).

Politischer Diskurs - Pflege & Haushalt
Der politische Diskurs ist für alle diejenigen, die politische und gesellschaftliche Themen verfolgen und sich gerne darüber austauschen wollen. Wir alle wissen, dass der Vorteil einer Demokratie gegenüber autoritären Systemen darin besteht, dass Meinungen geäußert und Kritik geübt werden kann - so let's do this! Jedesmal steht ein neues, eher generelles Thema im Zentrum, über das wir uns respektvoll austauschen wollen.
Das Thema unseres kommenden Abends ist die Frage: **Pflege & Haushalt - wer macht's?**
Interessante Informationsquellen für:

Agentic Deployment & Flink’s Data Platform Ecosystem | Data Engineering Meetup
Let’s kick things off for another Meetup, this time focusing on Agentic Deployment and Flink’s Data Platform Ecosystem.
Join us on February 26th in Berlin and bring all your questions! : )
**Pawel Wiszniewski: *"From Ingestion to Insight: Flink’s Data Platform Ecosystem"***
[Pawel Wiszniewski](https://www.linkedin.com/in/pawel-wiszniewski/) is a Senior Data Engineer at[ Flink](https://www.goflink.com/shop/de-DE/deals/?campaignid=23008119587&adgroupid=190905032608&creative=676430819949&utm_source=google&utm_medium=search&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=23008119587&gbraid=0AAAAABiSYNQr0V_xYSzvjjStCH6G-hLqP&gclid=CjwKCAiAkbbMBhB2EiwANbxtbQ-a9DxijUVV0nw5nXTXr037lYGiy6MIv5YbFjeo1qsZJStEPdBNxxoCPFQQAvD_BwE) and a well-known face at our Data Engineering Meetups. We're super excited to see our guest now stepping into the presenter's role.
About his keynote: "You have data, analysts, and business use cases. But you can't simply stitch them together with spreadsheets, SQL queries, and Python scripts and still expect business users to trust the dashboards. To ensure data quality, reliability, security and freshness, you need a well organised set of tools and processes: a Data Platform. In this presentation, I will explain how the Data Platform at Flink was built, outline its high-level architecture, and describe the key products, tools, and processes that enable us to operate over a thousand data models and maintain full visibility into the current state of the business."
**Sneha Nafade: *"AI Agents & Agentic Deployment"***
[Sneha Nafade](https://www.linkedin.com/in/sneha-nafade/) is a Cloud Architect at [Diconium](https://diconium.com/en/?utm_term=&utm_campaign=2025+%7C+Remarketing+%7C+DE/EN+%7C+All+Visitors&utm_source=adwords&utm_medium=ppc&hsa_acc=9083156072&hsa_cam=23281606208&hsa_grp=&hsa_ad=&hsa_src=x&hsa_tgt=&hsa_kw=&hsa_mt=&hsa_net=adwords&hsa_ver=3&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=23483494785&gbraid=0AAAAADQqBJ6jY8TgZt7Ocjy37F5Gup62I&gclid=CjwKCAiAkbbMBhB2EiwANbxtbfuZyXSVyFENwFuHv9tAcygFWNM24hiXlk3rvKVpwBFfM__jFEBHBRoCMpsQAvD_BwE) with a rich experience in Cloud & Cybersecurity Architecture & Engineering.

Park Workout and Martial Arts
Please note: there are no specific Covid protocols in place at present, but please be responsible, take a self-test and don't join if you have any cold symptoms! Thanks
/////////////////////////////////////////
We'll start off the session with a run in Gleisdreieck park that might include scaling some walls, visiting a few sites in the area to explore their opportunities for climbing and balancing, or going up or down stairs in unusual ways. After the outdoors bit, we come back to our gym where we focus on building strength, working as a group, and learning basic martial arts techniques. We are a small, friendly group open to anyone, without any prior knowledge or specific degree of fitness required. Our martial art is Jutaijutsu, a traditional Japanese one focused on self-defence.
Sounds interesting? We'd love for you to drop by and join us. You'll need running shoes and comfortable workout clothes, including a raincoat or the like for the park if the weather is bad. Once indoors, we train barefoot. The first three Meetups are free of charge. If you'd like to join our group beyond that, we would ask you to join our association, https://yanagi.berlin, a martial arts school based in Berlin. Membership there is 30 EUR/month and you will be able to train three times a week.

***The inaugural AI Freedom Alliance Summit.***
This full-day event will explore how we can ensure AI is adopted responsibly through shared ethical standards that empower
humanity. The summit will feature interactive and educational sessions led by thought leaders, technologists, policymakers, and advocates who are passionate about making AI fair, transparent, and beneficial for everyone.
**Why Attend?**
Learn about the legal and technical challenges with implementing AI solutions within your organization. Build better solutions while protecting your organization from legal and compliance risks. And learn how to think strategically about AI as a differentiation tool for your business.
This summit is highly recommended for C-Suite leaders to learn as well as interact with each other and our sponsors.

At Unity of Columbus, our Youth and Family Ministry nurtures the spiritual growth of children and families through love, joy, and practical spiritual teachings. Each Sunday, children explore timeless spiritual principles through stories, creative activities, music, and group sharing in a safe and welcoming environment.
Our program encourages children to discover their own inner light, express kindness, and develop a personal connection with God. Together, we celebrate diversity, cultivate understanding, and inspire each child to live with purpose and compassion. Parents and families are invited to join in this uplifting journey of learning, laughter, and spiritual connection.
