This talk walks through a practical demo of automating the full SRE lifecycle: from incident investigation to deployment validation, using Grafana MCP and the GitLab Agent Platform, and where humans still need to stay in the loop. *Serhii Vasylenko* **The Pipeline Was Green — AI Agents and CI Trust** We’ve spent years building CI/CD pipelines that tell us when code is "technically correct," but are they capable of telling an autonomous AI agent if a change is safe to apply? This talk explores a real-world incident where an AI-powered automation -- pairing Renovate with Claude Code -- successfully executed a "green" pipeline that broke a critical QA cluster for three days, how the team reacted, and how we evolved our vision toward the future of human-agentic collaboration with code. *Frithjof Hoffmann* **Managing Uninvited Guests: Securing Open Source Dependencies** Open source software is the ultimate neighborhood party, but what happens when an uninvited guest slips through the door? This talk digs into the messy reality of dependency hell and its role in software supply chain security: from typosquatting attacks to maintainer account takeovers, and the abandoned projects with known CVEs quietly living in your codebase rent-free.

From the very beginning, I have immersed myself in a spiritual women’s group, which has been a profound source of support and growth. Yoga and Tantra Yoga have brought incredible balance, harmony, and a deeper understanding of myself, truly transforming my life. Throughout my journey with the traditional integral Yoga system, I’ve learned practical ways to bring calm and balance into daily life, even in challenging times. Completing my Tantra Yoga for Women Instructor Training was a turning point, as it allowed me to blossom in ways I hadn’t thought possible. Being surrounded by a nurturing sisterhood showed me the immense power of women uplifting one another, and I now feel called to share this path with other women who seek similar transformation. In this **Tantra Yoga for Women** group, I am excited to lead you through these teachings, helping you connect deeply with your feminine energy and support your blossoming into fullness and joy. Together, we’ll create a safe and sacred space where you can embrace your own potential, find balance, and build bonds with a supportive community of women. I look forward to sharing this journey with you! **Price per month** Normal: 30,00 € ***Note:*** Over Meetup you can only sign-up for the first month for 10,00 €.

**The AWS Women’s User Group Berlin** is thrilled to invite you to our upcoming meetup sponsored by Storm Reply focused on **Building production-ready AI agents for real-world impact.** Join us for a deep dive into how to build, observe, and evaluate AI agents at scale. You’ll also see how these ideas come to life in a real-world climate-smart agriculture solution that turns weather forecasts into actionable field guidance. Whether you’re building agentic systems today or planning what comes next, this meetup will give you practical insights into making AI agents work in production. **Speaker Info** **Keynote Talk** **Speaker:** Tetiana Senna **Position:** Team Lead / Senior Project Manager, Storm Reply **Talk Title:** Trust, but Verify: Observability and Evaluations for AWS Agents **Abstract:** Getting an AI agent to work in a demo is easy. Knowing whether it still works in production - after the next prompt change, the next model upgrade, the next edge case - is the hard part. Unit tests don't cover non-deterministic behavior, and manually reviewing a handful of runs doesn't scale. This talk walks through the two practices that close that gap: observability (understanding what actually happened inside your agent) and evaluation (deciding whether the outcome was any good). We'll dig into Amazon Bedrock AgentCore's Observability and Evaluations capabilities, compare the proven evaluation approaches - built-in LLM-as-a-Judge evaluators for automatic quality monitoring, and custom evaluators for business-specific correctness checks - with a candid look at what each one is good for, where it falls short, and what it costs to run at scale. We'll also take a close look at AgentCore Optimization, AWS's newly previewed feature in this space. **Applied Agentic AI Talk** **Speakers:** **Vidhu Mitra Malladi:** Senior Software Engineer, Yara Digital Farming **Chamika Hasanthi:** Senior Software Engineer, Yara Digital Farming **Talk Title:** Weather Risk Intelligence Agent for farmers & Agronomist Abstract: Unpredictable weather events — heavy rainfall, drought, frost, and heatwaves pose significant risk to crop yield and fertilizer efficiency. While forecast data is widely available, it is rarely translated into timely; field-level guidance farmers can act upon. Using AWS AgentCore framework and AI capabilities, we can turn weather predictions into clear agronomic actions, supporting climate-smart agriculture at scale. **You'l learn:** * Implementation of the solution using AWS Agent Core framework * Architecture of the project. 🗓️ **Event Details:** \- Date: Tuesday\, June 30th \- Venue: Storm Reply GmbH\, [address](https://www.google.com/maps/place/Storm+Reply+GmbH/@52.5012692,13.368852,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m6!3m5!1s0x47a851119af460c5:0x35e34ba578e8b1ec!8m2!3d52.5012692!4d13.368852!16s%2Fg%2F11gg9298pv?entry=ttu&g_ep=EgoyMDI2MDUxNy4wIKXMDSoASAFQAw%3D%3D) \- Time: 06:00 PM \- 9:00 PM Doors open at 6:00 PM Food & drinks will be provided. 📋 **Program Schedule:** **18:00** \- Registration and Welcome Networking **18:20** \- AWS Women's User Group Welcome **18:30** \- "Trust\, but Verify: Observability and Evaluations for AWS Agents" **Speaker:** Tetiana Senna, Team Lead / Senior Project Manager, Storm Reply A practical session for anyone working with AI agents on AWS who wants the confidence to put them in front of real users.

## AI IN RETAIL: AGENTIC OPERATIONS & COMMERCE ​Die Expert Group „AI in Retail“ bietet Entscheidungsträger:innen aus Handel, Konsumgüterbranche und Technologie eine Plattform für regelmäßigen Austausch – vom Use Case zum Business Case. ​Unser zweites Treffen steht im Zeichen von „Agentic AI im Handel“ – und wir beleuchten das Thema aus zwei Perspektiven: Wie setzt ihr selbst KI-Agenten in euren Prozessen ein, um operative Abläufe end-to-end zu übernehmen und Kosten zu senken? Und was bedeutet es, wenn Agenten bald auch von außen auf euer Unternehmen zugreifen, einkaufen oder euch als Kanal umgehen? Konkret, praxisnah und interaktiv – mit Impulsen, Workshops und dem Austausch mit Branchenkolleg:innen und führenden Expert:innen. ​Lösungen für heute. Strategien für morgen. ​Bitte geben Sie uns bis zum 25.06. Bescheid, ob Sie dabei sein werden. Die Teilnahme ist kostenfrei & bedarf der Bestätigung durch den KI Park. *** ## ​AGENDA ​11:30 – Ankommen, Vernetzen + gemeinsames Lunch ​12:30 – Begrüßung & Warm-up ​ ​**AGENTIC OPERATIONS** * ​Keynote: Agent ≠ Chatbot ≠ Dashboard – KI als Prozessverantwortung ([Marco Szeidenleder](https://www.linkedin.com/in/szeidenleder/?utm_source=luma) \- Gründer & Managing Partner \- [Pandata](https://www.pandata.de/?utm_source=luma)) * ​Keynote: Agenten testen bevor sie live gehen – Qualitätssicherung ohne Tech-Hintergrund (Dr. Nicolai Bohn - Co Founder & CEO - [Rhesis AI](https://rhesis.ai/de?utm_source=luma)) * ​Workshop: Der nächste Mitarbeiter ist kein Mensch: KI-Agenten im Retail-Betrieb einsetzen ([Aaron Koivunen](https://www.linkedin.com/in/aaron-koivunen?utm_source=luma) CTO & Founder & [Adriana Carmona Beltran](https://www.linkedin.com/in/adriana-carmona-beltran/?utm_source=luma) Co Founder - [TEDIX](https://tedix.dev/?utm_source=luma)) ​**AGENTIC COMMERCE** * ​Impuls + Diskussion: Agentic Commerce & die Fragen, die niemand stellt ([Paul Krauss](https://www.linkedin.com/in/paul-krauss-ba89605b/?utm_source=luma) \- Partner AI \- [Team One Developers](https://www.team-one.de/?utm_source=luma)) * ​[Stephan Ritter](https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephanritter/?locale=de_DE&utm_source=luma) ([Deloitte Digital)](https://www.deloittedigital.com/de/en.html?utm_source=luma) x [Tim Bielski](https://www.linkedin.com/in/timbielski/?utm_source=luma) ([Shopify](https://www.shopify.com/de?utm_source=luma)): ACO Opportunities, "No Regret Moves" and Experience Outlook * ​Showcase: Kundenbindung in der Agentic World – wie Retailer den Kundenkontakt behalten ([Ralph Hünermann ](https://www.linkedin.com/in/odoscope-ralph-hunermann/?utm_source=luma)\- Gründer & CEO \- [ODOSCOPE](https://www.odoscope.com/de?utm_source=luma)) ​ ​18:00 – Next Steps & Networking ​ ​Das Event wird auf Deutsch stattfinden. *** ​**Fragen zum Event? ->** retail@kipark.de

Why are we unhappy? Where does emotional pain come from? Studies show that people who suffer from long-term emotional pain have painful experiences in their lives that were never fully resolved in their mind. In other words, there were issues in the past that were not completely dealt with. This can include abuse in childhood, breakups, divorce, death of a loved one, to name a few. How do you know whether you have gotten over something painful? Here is an easy test: Do you still have attention on what had happened to you? For instance, do you still find yourself thinking about something painful that you went through? If you are, then you are not over it. In fact, in severe cases, people find themselves playing a "tape" in their mind over and over again. So how do you heal from your past? How do you stop the "tape" playing in your mind? In this meeting, you will learn a technique to help you with that. Come join us! 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 created by the Dianetics and Scientology life improvement center.

Monthly working lunch for Columbus business owners. One specific topic, one to three actions you can run this week. You can be the best at what you do and still be invisible. If local buyers cannot find you, the phone does not ring. Marketing Monday Lunch + Learn is a monthly working lunch for Columbus business owners focused on building relationships, local networking, and local marketing. Every kind of local business welcome. No pitch round, no pressure, no upsell. **This month** Most local businesses pick one or two places to be visible and call it good. The result is inconsistent calls and a feeling that marketing is not working. We will walk through the three places every local business needs to show up, plus the fourth place most owners ignore that quietly produces the warmest leads. **What to expect** Doors open at noon. Order lunch and drinks at the cafe counter or bring your own. You get real conversation with other local owners and a focused marketing lesson. You leave knowing people and with one to three actions to run that week. The room is reserved through 1:30 PM. **Who this is for** Any local business owner who wants clearer marketing direction and real local relationships. Service businesses, retail, home services, professional services, online owners building local presence, anyone serious about being part of the Columbus business community. **Not the right fit if** You are here to pitch the room or recruit for an MLM. **Details** * Second Monday of every month * 12:00 to 1:30 PM * Good Cafe Easton, 4400 Easton Commons, Ste 150, Columbus, OH 43219 * Order lunch and drinks at the counter when you arrive * Free to attend, RSVP required, space is limited **About the host** Rita Suzanne is a local marketing strategist and the founder of Local Marketing Method.

It’s time to take control of your mental health. How do you get rid of stress, anxiety and uncertainty? These emotions are buried deep in your reactive mind. Find out what the reactive mind is, and in the process find yourself. Here is the secret of being positive and free: Thinking positively is not enough. You also have to get rid of the negative thinking. Your mind is like a garden. You can plant many beautiful flowers in it, but if you don't get rid of the weeds when you plant your flowers, the weeds will soon take over the whole garden. A positive thought is like a flower in your mental garden, and a negative thought is like a weed. You cannot expect to have a positive mindset if you continue to have negative thoughts dwelling and growing there. So, how do you get rid of the negative thoughts? That's what this Meetup is all about. Attend this local meeting and find out! The Meetup event will be led by a consultant who had helped many people live happier in life. 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 created by the Dianetics & Scientology life improvement center.
