Solution Architecture

**This week's venue: Beer People \| Lázár utca 7\, Budapest 1065** We hold a bi-weekly workshop to encourage creative writing where we share pieces of creative writing and solicit feedback from the other attendees. Some members also use the forum to find others with whom to collaborate, edit work, and/or brainstorm plot, themes, settings, and so forth. And from time to time, we participate in competitions, recite and/or offer material for events organized by other groups. At the moment there is no prompt for this particular meetup. Instead, writers are invited to submit something they have (or are working on) or to craft a short story specifically for the event. Of course, there's no pressure to submit something. Many participants are interested in hearing ideas, questioning the authors, and examining style and technique. Often, we explore other published works as well. The submission guidelines are as follows: 1. limit the piece to 850 words (to give enough time for any other submissions being read at the event); 2. make the text available (though you can read it aloud) for the other attendees. Many authors bring a few printed copies, others post their work in the comments of the meetup; 3. have a question in mind for the group about the submission; and, 4. If offering something from a longer work, be prepared to give a little bit of background first.

**Details / Részletek** The language of the event is Hungarian 🇭🇺 Tudtad, hogy az építőipar digitális transzformációja nem csak szoftverekről, hanem a gondolkodásmódunkról is szól? A **Digital Architecture Meetup** legújabb eseményén a **LEAN módszertan** és a **digitális eszközök metszéspontját járjuk körül.** Ebben a rendhagyó kiadásban három elismert szakértő segítségével nézzük meg, hogyan lehet a pazarlást minimalizálni és a folyamatokat optimalizálni – a tervezőasztaltól egészen a kivitelezésig. **Miért érdemes eljönnöd?** Betekintést nyerhetsz a LEAN gyakorlati alkalmazásába olyan szakemberektől, akik nap mint nap ezen elvek mentén alakítják az iparág jövőjét.

*“In a forest, there is no master tree that plans and dictates change when rain fails to fall or when the spring comes early. The whole ecosystem reacts creatively, in the moment.”* *―* **Frederic Laloux**, Reinventing Organizations: A Guide to Creating Organizations Inspired by the Next Stage of Human Consciousness **(Session in english!)** Frederic Laloux is a former management consultant and organizational theorist best known for the book **Reinventing Organizations**, where he argues that human organizations evolve alongside human consciousness. Drawing from developmental psychology, systems thinking, and real-world case studies, Laloux proposes that many modern companies still operate with industrial-age assumptions centered on hierarchy, control, and bureaucracy, even though the nature of work and society has fundamentally changed. His work became influential among some founders, innovators, and organizational reformers searching for alternatives to rigid corporate structures. At the center of Laloux’s vision is the idea of “Teal organizations”: companies built around self-management, personal wholeness, and evolutionary purpose rather than traditional command-and-control leadership. Influenced by thinkers such as **Ken Wilber**, Laloux presents organizations not as machines to optimize, but as living systems capable of adaptation and emergence. His ideas are both inspiring and controversial, praised as a blueprint for post-industrial collaboration and criticized as overly idealistic, difficult to scale, and even utopian. **Introduction of guests (15 minutes)** We start with a short introduction of the topic and of the guests 1. What kind of organizations have you been a member of? 2. Was there anything in common in the way they operated? **Questions (1 hour and 45 minutes)** 1. What sense does it make to categorize organizations into consciousness levels? 2. When it comes to organizations, should efficiency or harmonious functioning be the primary goal? 3. Is personal fulfillment a good foundational goal and guiding principle for an organization? 4. Can dynamically distributed authority function in the long run? 5. How solid a foundation for success is the self-organization of roles based on earned authority and trust? 6. Alongside self-organization (i.e., without overarching control), can it be guaranteed that every necessary role will have a sufficient number of competent members? 7. Is full transparency in finances and decision-making sustainable? 8. Is trust-based delegation necessarily better than competence-based delegation? 9. Is it not dangerous to optimize for pleasantness when one may have to face serious competitors? 10. Can the claim really be true that the propaganda proclaims: "the question is not whether you are good enough"? 11. Can actual quality of life be measured through feedback about how a person feels? How reliable a reflection for one's quality of life is one's sense of happiness? 12. Is it sufficient to weight the evaluation of an idea based on the degree of involvement of the voters? 13. Can a parliament whose members are selected based on popularity rather than competence truly be competent 14. Can a community feedback-based competence assessment be as good as an objective test-based one? 15. Does it make sense to speak collectively about the fulfillment of the people? 16. If people make decisions by relying on results provided by AI, are those decisions truly their own? 17. If a country was to transition to the Teal model today, how could it enforce its laws? 18. Was the Zappos example more of a good initiative or a bad one? *** **RSVP:** Please confirm your attendance here on Meetup to save your space and if you cannot assist, yield your space to another person in the waiting list. We welcome donations from 1.000 HUF (min 400 HUF) to keep the costs of the meetup. **If you order food, or alcohol-free wines, you dont need to donate for the group. Thank you!**

We’re back with the third edition of the Budapest Databricks Meetup, a gathering for Databricks users, data engineers, analytics professionals, AI practitioners, and everyone interested in modern data platforms. This time, we’ll explore how **metadata** is becoming a key driver of **enterprise AI**, how **lineage** can help teams better understand KPI changes across BI environments, and how Databricks engineers can better navigate and integrate with the **SAP ecosystem**. 📍 **Location:** Agora Park, Hub 3, 4th floor (Árbóc utca 1–3, 1133 Budapest) 📅 **Date:** May 27\, 2026 \| 18:00–20:30 \(detailed agenda below\) 🤝 **Organizer:** Abylon Consulting 🍕 **Catering:** Pizza, snacks & beer **Beyond the Data: How Metadata is Reshaping Enterprise AI with Databricks** 🔹 Miguel Angel de Luna Gomez – Practice Lead EMEA, Databricks Enterprise data has always been at the heart of understanding how businesses really work. But things are changing. Today, it’s not just about the data itself, but also the metadata around it — and that shift is opening the door to a whole new generation of AI capabilities. In this session, Miguel will explore how organizations can accelerate their AI journey by combining Databricks with existing enterprise data landscapes. He’ll also introduce emerging patterns in enterprise AI, including how users can interact with enterprise data using natural language and what these capabilities look like in practice. **Why Did the KPI Change? End-to-End Lineage from Databricks to Power BI** 🔹 Edina Vedelek & Olivér Vetési – Abylon Consulting A practical look at how to cut through dashboard confusion by connecting backend SQL dependencies with Power BI reporting layers. Crossing the bridge between the two, thanks to Databrick AI (agent) and some Power BI tricks. This session will explore how metadata-driven lineage helps teams: ➡️ Assess downstream impact faster ➡️ Reduce dependency chaos between engineering and reporting teams ➡️ Move from guesswork to clear answers ➡️ Replicable automated information retrieval **SAP Data Meets Databricks: A Data Engineer’s Perspective** 🔹 Gábor Takács – Abylon Consulting In this session, we’ll explore how to work with SAP data from a Databricks data engineer’s perspective. We’ll cover common integration patterns, typical challenges, and practical ways to extract and make SAP data usable in a modern data platform. 🗓️ **Agenda** 17:30–18:00 — Arrival & Registration 18:00–18:30 — SAP Data Landscape from a Databricks Engineer’s Perspective 18:30–19:00 — Beyond the Data: How Metadata is Reshaping Enterprise AI with Databricks 19:00–19:30 — Why Did the KPI Change?

For our May meetup, the Protex AI Budapest community is inaugurating our new office, and we're hosting two deep-dive talks from the Protex AI team: one on enabling every function in your company with AI, and one on shipping enterprise-grade products at AI speed. **Shipping an Enterprise-Grade Mobile App in 12 Weeks: Pitch, Plan, Build, Legal, App Stores** Erzsébet Somogyi, Engineering Manager, Protex AI LinkedIn: [https://www.linkedin.com/in/erzsebet-somogyi/](https://www.linkedin.com/in/erzsebet-somogyi/) Erzsébet is an Engineering Manager at Protex AI. She joined from Google, where she was part of the Assistant team (serving over 1B daily active users), and previously served as CTO at SimpledCard and Director of Video Platform at Canal Digital AS. Erzsó will share how a team of three pitched, planned, built, cleared legal, and shipped an enterprise-grade mobile app to both the App Store and Play Store in 12 weeks. Protex AI's products are trusted by enterprises like DHL, P&G, Toyota, GM, and Coca-Cola, and you'll leave with hard-earned lessons on how to move fast without breaking the things that matter. **How to Get Your Company AI Pilled** David Souza, Director of AI & Engineering, Protex AI LinkedIn: [https://www.linkedin.com/in/souza-david/](https://www.linkedin.com/in/souza-david/) David will share how Protex AI got everyone in the company building with AI, not just Engineering, but Sales, Marketing, Finance, Legal, People, Product, Security, and Client teams. Expect a practical playbook for taking a company AI-native: what worked, what didn't, and the concrete patterns you can copy. The Protex AI Budapest community brings together builders, researchers, and curious minds to explore how AI is being applied in real-world systems, right here in Budapest. Whether you're rolling out AI across your company or shipping your next product at speed, you'll leave with practical ideas you can apply immediately. 🍕 Pizza, drinks, and good conversation provided. 🇬🇧 This session will be in English. **Agenda** 🕠 17:45 - Doors open & networking 🗣️ 18:00 - Talks begin 🍕 20:00 - Networking until 21:00 🔗 Learn more about Protex AI: [https://www.protex.ai](https://www.protex.ai/) Looking forward to seeing you there!

**Important time note:** Please plan on arriving between 5:30 and 6:00 as the elevators lock after 6 and you'll need to message us and we'll need to come get you. The building address is 4450 Bridge Park The entrance is 6620 Mooney St, Suite 400 You will need to scan your ID at the door to get a visitor badge. **Abstract** Like it or not, AI agents are now capable of turning a quickly written paragraph of requirements into a pull request that is ready to be integrated into real-world production applications and it's now our responsibility to make sure AI doesn't go rogue and take down prod - or corrupt our data by misunderstanding the requirements or our existing schemas. In this session we'll explore strategies to protect our codebases through unit and integration testing, documentation, and code review along with additional ways of providing context and guard rails to our AI agents as they carry out the work we've assigned them to do. By the time we're done, you'll have a firm grasp of the problem and understand some helpful options for protecting your codebase from vibe coding mishaps getting YOLOed into prod. **YouTube Link** TBD

Join us for an hour of writing! We’ve discovered that it’s strikingly helpful to write with other writers. See if it’s true for you at 7:00pm on Wednesday, February 11 at Streetlight Guild. Be it a book, blog, script, essay, dissertation, resume, melody, poem or just plain work stuff, you are invited to write it with us.

**History** The [Franklin Park Conservatory](https://www.fpconservatory.org/)’s roots trace back to 1852 when the Franklin County Agricultural Society purchased 88 acres of land to host the Ohio State Fair. After the fair moved to its permanent home, the city of Columbus transformed the grounds into Franklin Park in 1884. This transition shifted the space from a temporary event site to a dedicated public green space for the growing community. The park became a central hub for outdoor recreation and early civic gatherings in the neighborhood. In 1895, the landmark Victorian-style Palm House opened its doors, drawing heavy inspiration from the Glass Palace of the 1893 World’s Columbian Exposition in Chicago. This iron and glass structure became an immediate icon, housing exotic plants that residents would otherwise never see in the Midwest. It remains the oldest part of the facility and serves as a primary link to the conservatory’s 19th-century origins. For decades, it stood as a singular testament to grand horticultural architecture in Central Ohio. A major turning point arrived in 1992 when Columbus hosted AmeriFlora '92, an international horticultural exhibition. This massive event prompted a $16 million renovation and expansion, adding significantly more greenhouse space and the Dorothy M. Davis Showhouse. The festival put the conservatory on the international map and fundamentally changed its scale and ambition. Following the event, the facility transitioned from a city-run park to a private, non-profit organization. In 2003, the conservatory’s identity was further defined through a long-term partnership with world-renowned glass artist Dale Chihuly. After a successful exhibition, the Friends of the Conservatory purchased most of the glass installations, creating the largest permanent collection of Chihuly’s work in a botanical setting. These vibrant glass sculptures are now woven throughout the biomes, blending art with nature. This addition helped cement the conservatory as a premier cultural destination rather than just a botanical garden. Recent years have seen the site expand beyond the glass walls to emphasize community engagement and outdoor education. The 2018 opening of the Scotts Miracle-Gro Foundation Children’s Garden added two acres of interactive landscape designed for hands-on learning. The Scotts Miracle-Gro Company Community Garden Campus also provides local residents with space to grow their own food and learn sustainable practices. Today, the conservatory balances its historic Victorian charm with modern commitments to local ecology and the Columbus community. **Maps of the Conservatory** Here is the [main map](https://www.fpconservatory.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/franklin-park-zones-scaled.jpg) of the Conservatory grounds. Here's a [map of the areas](https://www.fpconservatory.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/ConstructionMap-2026.jpg) in which the Conservatory has ongoing construction (see below). **Summary** For this event, we'll explore Columbus's highly-rated and very popular Conservatory. As mentioned above, the Conservatory is doing renovations on parts of the facility. These renovations are scheduled to be ongoing until the Fall of next year. Basically, no matter when you go to the Conservatory over the next 18 months, you're going to see some metaphorical orange barrels. So let's just go now. **Tickets and pricing** On the first Sunday of every month, the Conservatory is free for residents of Franklin County and the city of Columbus. You must bring an ID to receive this discount. (Yes, they do check.) Otherwise, tickets are $25.20. Members of the Columbus Zoo (of which I am one) do get a discount on tickets, though I have never actually bought a ticket to the Conservatory (I've always gone on free days). I believe the discount is $4. Parking is always free. If you have additional questions about pricing or whether and for what you qualify, you can reach the Conservatory at 614-715-8000. **Where we'll meet** We will meet just outside the main entrance. I guarantee there's going to be a line. The Conservatory is always popular on free days, and especially in nice weather. **Your GPS is stupid!** Be careful simply typing "Franklin Park Conservatory" in your GPS and going where it tells you. The only way to access the parking lot to the Conservatory is off of Broad Street. Unfortunately, since Google Maps is unable to find its way out of a wet paper bag, it has a tendency to want to take people to a mythical, non-existent Conservatory entrance on Nelson Road. If your GPS does this, just drive to the north side of the Conservatory along Broad Street. Your GPS should then redirect you to the main Conservatory entrance. If your GPS doesn't, then throw your phone away\* and look for the big Conservatory sign on the south side of Broad Street between Nelson Road and Franklin Park West. You also should be able to use the map pin I've provided, below, and it should properly direct you to where you need to drive. \* Don't really do this. **After the event** After stopping to smell the roses, for those that are interested, we'll head to the nearby [Columbus Brewing Company Beer Hall](https://columbusbrewing.com/location/beer-hall/) for [drinks](https://columbusbrewing.com/location/beer-hall/#draft-list) and [lunch](https://columbusbrewing.com/location/beer-hall/#food-menu). The Beer Hall's actual address is [200 Kelton Ave, Columbus, OH 43205](https://www.google.com/maps/place/200+Kelton+Ave,+Columbus,+OH+43205/data=!4m2!3m1!1s0x883889a94ac4acad:0xadb2e60240dbc38b?sa=X&ved=1t:242&ictx=111) (it's literally just on the south side of the Conservatory). Be sure this is where your GPS is taking you when you use it, as the Brewing Company has a taproom on Harrison Avenue that is *not* what you want for this event. We should be at the Beer Hall by 1 if you can't make the Conservatory and just want to join us for drinks.
