**One Process to Rule Them All: How We Killed Our Microservices โ for Testing, Dev Envs, and Local Development**
โMicroservices are great in production. Everywhere else, they're expensive, slow, and painful. We'll show how we collapsed our entire service fleet into a single process โ first to replace our mock-heavy tests with fast, real E2E tests that boot every service in-process; then to slash Kubernetes dev environment costs by replacing a pod-per-service with a single pod; and finally to enable fully local development with instant feedback, zero deploy cycles, and real debugging. Same architecture, three wins.

โUnblocking the Node.js Event Loop: Real-World Troubleshooting In a NodeJS Consumer
โWhat happens when a perfectly healthy and robust Node.js service suddenly stops responding, fails its health checks and gets killed by Kubernetes?
โIn this talk, Iโll share a real production incident from a high-throughput, Kafka-driven system, where a single consumer began collapsing under unusually large datasets.
โWhat initially looked like a routine performance issue quickly turned into a deeper investigation: growing lag, stalled processing, misleading signals, and a bottleneck hiding far from where we first looked.
โWeโll walk through the debugging journey step by step, examine practical profiling techniques to narrow down the search, and ultimately uncover the real root cause.

โImplementing Distributed locking algorithms in Node.js
โDescription
โProtecting shared sensitive shared resources from race conditions is hard enough when running in a single process. Let's make it harder: how do you do it in a distributed system? Scale it up and run it in a production system that serves millions of transactions. See where weโre going here?
โIn this talk, I will take you along our journey of implementing distributed locks in Node.js, how they broke, and how we evolved our algorithm over time to support thousands of requests per second in a mission-critical financial system. We will discuss different ways to implement distributed locking, using different tools and approaches. Learn how to improve performance to support more than 10,000 transactions per second which are all trying to access the same resource while running workflows on multiple data centers and how to verify it doesnโt break.

AI Agents & OpenClaw Security at Microsoft Reactor TLV
The TLV PUG is back! Join us for an afternoon of talks, food, drinks, and good company at Microsoft Reactor Tel Aviv on Level 50 with those incredible skyline views.
This time we've got two great talks lined up. Oh, and there will be swag. You're welcome.
**Talks:**
**From Zero to AI Agent: Building with Microsoft Foundry Agent Service** *[Engin Diri](https://www.linkedin.com/in/engin-diri/) \- Senior Solutions Architect\, Pulumi*
AI Agents are everywhere right now, but how do you actually build and deploy one without losing your mind? In this talk, Engin will walk through how to use Microsoft Foundry Agent Service together with the Microsoft Agent Framework and Pulumi to spin up, configure, and manage AI agents, all as code. We'll go from an empty project to a working agent, covering the gotchas and the good parts along the way.
**OpenClaw Bots Done Right: No Security Nightmares Included** [Dor Serero](https://www.linkedin.com/in/dorser/) \- Principal Architect\, Microsoft
So you want to run an OpenClaw bot, or any agent for that matter. Cool. But have you thought about what happens when things go sideways security-wise? In this session, Dor will share real-world lessons on running OpenClaw bots without the kind of setup that keeps you up at 3 AM wondering if something just went horribly wrong. We'll cover common pitfalls, hardening tips, and practical patterns to keep your bot humming without opening the door to trouble.
**Schedule:**
* 5:00 PM โ Doors open, food, drinks & networking
* 5:30 PM โ From Zero to AI Agent: Building with Microsoft Foundry Agent Service (Engin Diri)

* 7:30 PM โ See you at the next one!
**Where:** Microsoft Reactor Tel Aviv Menakhem Begin Rd 144, Level 50 Tel Aviv-Yafo
After the official wrap-up, we'll continue any interesting discussions at a nearby bar for those who want to keep the conversation going.
Spots are limited, so grab yours early. See you there!

**Why You Should Join (and why does it worth you time & money)**
As an entrepreneur, your time is your most valuable asset. This webinar moves past theoretical advice and focuses on the "how-to" of public speaking and persuasion. This session is designed to be highly practical, focusing on the "how-to" of successful pitching. We will dive deep into the following:
* **Practical Pitching Tools:** How to craft a focused and compelling pitch that hits all the right marks.
* **Effective Communication:** Techniques to ensure your message is not just heard, but understood and remembered.
* **The Power of Body Language:** Learning how to project authority and leadership through your physical presence.

.
.
**Important notice โผ๏ธ**
This is a focused investment in your professional growth, designed to ensure that the next time you stand in front of a decision-maker, you are fully prepared to win.
