Becoming a Mendix Architect: The Path, the Mindset, and the Practice
Becoming a Mendix Architect: The Path, the Mindset, and the Practice
Architecture isn’t a job title—it’s a way of thinking and making decisions. 🧠 In this meetup, you’ll discover how you (from junior to senior) can grow architectural skills and create lasting impact. As Mendix developers, we’re trained to move fast and deliver value. 🚀 But Mendix has evolved into a mature enterprise platform, used for increasingly complex and business-critical solutions. As applications grow into landscapes—with more teams, integrations, security requirements, and quality expectations—delivery alone isn’t enough. That’s where architectural thinking comes in: • making trade-offs explicit • designing for change • creating guardrails that keep teams productive This meetup explores the path toward becoming a Mendix architect from two complementary perspectives. 🔹 **Zooming in:** What architecture really means in practice, how the architect role differs from senior development, and how you can start creating architectural impact—regardless of your current level. 🔹 **Zooming out:** How Mendix is positioned compared to buying off-the-shelf software, traditional development, and other low-code platforms like PowerApps. We’ll also look ahead at how Mendix fits into the future of software development, including its role in Agentic AI and how it compares to AI-generated code. You’ll leave with: • a clearer architectural mindset • a shared vocabulary • practical examples • strategic context you can immediately apply in refinements, design sessions, or technical reviews 🎯 *** **What you’ll learn** • What architecture is (and isn’t): mindset, responsibilities, and outcomes • The progression from junior → medior → senior → architect • Making better decisions in Mendix: modularization, integration strategy, security-by-design, performance • How architects enable teams through principles, guardrails, and governance—without slowing delivery • How Mendix is positioned as an enterprise platform versus traditional code, packaged software, and other low-code options • How Mendix fits into the future of AI-driven development, including Agentic AI and AI-generated code • Practical takeaways: review checklists and a next-steps roadmap you can start tomorrow 🛠️ *** **Audience** Anyone building Mendix solutions—from curious juniors to experienced seniors and tech leads. 👥 *** **Agenda** • 18:00 – 19:00 🍽️ Dinner (for in-person attendees only—don’t forget to RSVP with your dietary requirements!) • 19:00 – 20:00 🎙️ Presentations by the speakers, followed by Q&A • 20:00 – 21:00 🍻 Drinks & Networking *** **Speakers** 🎤 Zefanja Kleuters – Sopra Steria Mendix Expert with a broad range of experience in both development and architecture. 🎤 Andreas Lennevi – Mendix Mendix Lead Architect, sharing the broader enterprise positioning of Mendix and its role in the future of software development. *** **About this event** This is an in-person event hosted at the Sopra Steria office in Machelen. 🏢 A recording will be made available for those who can’t attend live. Mendix Meetups are all about community, learning, and real-world experience—no sales pitches, no recruiting, just valuable insights and knowledge sharing. 🤝 *** **Any questions about this meetup?** Contact community@mendix.com, matthias.strauven@soprasteria.com, or jeroen.desmedt@soprasteria.com for more details.

Fronteers BE at Craftzing Ghent
Fronteers BE at Craftzing Ghent
On Thursday 12 March, we're kicking off the Fronteers Belgium meetups again! For this first edition we are being hosted by **Craftzing**. 🎉 **Evening** **Program** 🎉 * ​18h00 - 🚪 Doors open & start of networking + food * ​19h00 - 🙋‍♀️ Introduction by Fronteers BE & Craftzing * 19h20 - **Talk 1: Virtual DOM vs ChangeDetection, keeping your view up to date by Iben Van de Veire** * 20h00 - 🍷 ----- Break ----- 🥤 * 20h20 - **Talk 2: Your password has been breached! by Karel De Smet** * 21h00 - 🥤 Drinks and networking till the end of the event 👩‍🏫 **TALK & SPEAKER INFO** 👨‍🏫 **Talk 1: Virtual DOM vs ChangeDetection, keeping your view up to date** Have you ever wondered how your application knows which parts of your view need to be updated? What a Virtual DOM actually is; and what Angular developers really mean when they're talking about ChangeDetection? Together we'll dive into this unseen layer of your favorite framework and untangle the mystery behind how, why and when parts of your application are being updated! **About Iben** Iben Van de Veire has been an Angular developer for almost as long as he has had a curly moustache; and loves to combine his passion for web development with his never ending love for talking. By day he's a senior frontend developer at Craftzing, by night an avid zoo fan and YouTuber. And somewhere in between, in the twilight hours, he spends his time tinkering with open-source development! **Talk 2: Your password has been breached!** Did you know the data of over 17 billion (!) breached accounts is just floating around the internet? Here's the catch: that's actually a good thing! We'll find out why while navigating concepts such as cryptographic hashing, k-anonimity and padding. You'll come out wiser on the other side! **About Karel** Karel is a lecturer in web development at Arteveldehogeschool. He loves both Angular and React, so don't ask him to pick one! \*\*\* Fronteers BE is a subgroup of Fronteers, the Dutch community for front-end professionals. Our goal is to foster an inclusive and welcoming environment. If you have witnessed, or experienced any unacceptal behavior or remarks at one of our events, please reach out to someone in our team of event hosts/organisers. **Our host** [Craftzing](https://www.craftzing.com/) is a transformation partner focused on shaping and building digital products and services that change how organizations work. We operate in Belgium, in environments where scale, complexity, and responsibility are part of everyday reality. We work end-to-end. From strategy and design to engineering, operations, and long-term ownership. Always with people at the center, both the users of what we build and the teams who build it. Not as separate tracks, but as integrated solutions that keep working in production. For people starting here, that means working with context and impact. You understand what you’re building, who it’s for, and why quality matters. At Craftzing, roles come with ownership from the start. Today is a first look at how we work. And what it means to be part of teams that don’t just design digital solutions, but carry them forward. **Location** Craftzing - Ghent office [Dok-Noord 5, 9000 Ghent](https://www.craftzing.com/who-we-are/offices#ghent:~:text=Ghent-,office,-Dok%2DNoord%205)

Belgian PostgreSQL Meetup: March Edition
Belgian PostgreSQL Meetup: March Edition
Hello Postgres folks! We’re happy to announce our next in-person PostgreSQL meetup, which will take place at ULB in **Brussels** 🇧🇪 📅 **When:** Tuesday, **10 March 2026** 📍 **Where:** Université libre de Bruxelles (ULB), Brussels Solbosch campus, same location as FOSDEM, just make sure to find the right building and room 📌 **Room:** S.UA6.124/128 Building U, door A, level 6, room 124 Campus map: https://www.ulb.be/en/solbosch/campus-map Address: Avenue Paul Héger 22, 1050 Brussels This meetup will follow our usual after-work format, with talks, discussions, and plenty of time to catch up with fellow PostgreSQL enthusiasts over food and drinks. **Program** * **18:00** Doors open * **18:20** Welcome by PostgreSQL Users Group Belgium * **18:30** "*MobilityDB: Bringing Mobility Data Inside PostgreSQL*" by Esteban Zimanyi (ULB) * **19:00** "*Scaling Semantic Models: Bespoke PostgreSQL Schemas at SaaS Scale*" by Thijs Lemmens * **19:30** "*Percona Operator for PostgreSQL: An Honest Overview*" by Yoann La Cancellera (Percona) * **20:00** Food & Drinks 🍕 Sponsored by Percona * **21:00** Close A big thanks to **Mahmoud Sakr (ULB)** for hosting and to **Percona** for sponsoring the event 🙏 **More details about the talks:** * **MobilityDB: Bringing Mobility Data Inside PostgreSQL** *MobilityDB is an open source data management and analytics platform for mobility data (https://github.com/MobilityDB/MobilityDB). Its core function is to efficiently store and query mobility tracks such as vehicle GPS trajectories. Built on top of PostgreSQL and PostGIS, it provides spatiotemporal data management via SQL.* *Because it is implemented as a native PostgreSQL extension, MobilityDB can be deployed in traditional on premise setups as well as cloud and edge environments without requiring a separate data platform.* * **Scaling Semantic Models: Bespoke PostgreSQL Schemas at SaaS Scale** *While most CMS platforms rely on generic EAV tables, ContentGrid generates native PostgreSQL schemas directly from user-defined semantic models. We’ll discuss the challenges of automating DDL migrations for thousands of unique schemas and the infrastructure patterns we use to keep this model-driven approach performant, isolated, and manageable at scale.* * **Percona Operator for PostgreSQL: An Honest Overview** *In this talk, we review the Percona Operator for PostgreSQL, how it derives from its Crunchy foundation, how it is architected, and the capabilities it provides. We will examine its strengths and weaknesses, how it approaches vendor lock in, and the strategy shaping the project.* *The goal is not to present a feature list or a how to guide, but to focus on architectural considerations and operational tradeoffs.* We’re looking forward to another great evening of PostgreSQL, community, and good conversations in Brussels. See you there! 🐘💛🖤❤️

[ChtiteDev][non-mixité] A-t-on encore besoin d'Agilité en 2026 ?
[ChtiteDev][non-mixité] A-t-on encore besoin d'Agilité en 2026 ?
Chtitedev est un collectif de minorité de genre de la tech (développeuses, devOps, data eng,…) qui se réunissent mensuellement sous forme de meetup en non-mixité choisie.
Vous êtes une femme cis, une personne trans et/ou non binaire ? Vous entretenez un intérêt pro ou perso pour la programmation ?
Nous vous proposons de nous réunir afin de nous entraider pour pouvoir avancer au mieux dans ce monde qui a du mal à nous réintégrer dans ses rangs ! Au programme :
 ⏰ 18h30: Arrivée, petit tour de table et papotage ⏰ 18h45: Présentation : A-t-on encore besoin d'Agilité en 2026 ? ⏰ 19h15/30: Apéritif et papotage Alors que l’IA redéfinit radicalement nos capacités de production, la place de nos méthodologies historiques arrive à une croisée des chemins décisive. Entre des rituels devenus parfois automatiques et une accélération technologique sans précédent, quel rôle reste-t-il vraiment au pilotage humain dans la création logicielle ? Ce meetup propose de confronter nos certitudes aux réalités de 2026 : nous explorerons si l'agilité doit être enterrée ou si, débarrassée de son folklore, elle détient la clé pour ne pas se noyer dans la production de software inutile.
