AKCE JEN PRO ZVANÉ 🤖 Ahoj, v rámci setkávání Research Tuesday jsme naplánovaly Friday special. Cítíme už nějakou dobu, že naše researchová komunita má potřebu sdílet, co nového nám do práce přinesla umělá inteligence, jak nám mění výzkum pod rukama. Chceme si povídat, chceme si navzájem sdílet, chceme vytvořit mapu, kam si zaneseme, v jakých fázích výzkumu a jakým způsobem používáme AI a co nám funguje dobře a co až tolik ne. Pracovat a sdílet se bude převážně v menších skupinkách a výstup se na konci odprezentuje ostatním. Mapu pak pravděpodobně dáme k dispozici komunitě. Pátek 19. června 9 - 12 do Slevomatu v pražském Karlíně. Setkání se koná pouze offline, a kapacita je omezená na 30 pozvaných. Žádná velká příprava netřeba, jen teď dávej víc pozor, kdy a jak v rámci výzkumného workflow používáš AI a jak ti to funguje, ať se o to můžeš podělit s ostatními. **🕒 Agenda:** * **08:30 AM** – Otevření dveří & ranní networking * **9:00 AM** Workshop * **12:00 PM** – Závěr & možný společný oběd **🧸 Hlídání dětí na vyžádání:** Research Tuesday stavíme na tom, že profesní rozvoj má být přístupný všem. Chceme podpořit i rodiče malých dětí, aby mohli zůstat v kontaktu s oborem a potkávat se bez zbytečných překážek. **Máte zájem o hlídání?** Rádi ho na místě zajistíme, ale potřebujeme vědět, jestli o něj bude zájem. Dejte nám vědět v komentářích nejpozději do pondělí 15.6. do 8:00, jestli službu využijete a pro kolik dětí. Podle toho rozhodneme, jestli ji zajistíme. **Rezervace:** Zarezervuj si místo včas. Pokud se ti plány změní, prosíme, uvolni místo ostatním. **Těšíme se na známé tváře i nové účastníky!** Běla, Ivana, Lucie

Let's hike & swim! The weekend is supposed to be pretty...warm, so thwre no better way to spend the time than in a cooler place - in the mountains where we can expect around 25°C, and finish a relaxed pace hike with cooling down - in the beautiful, clean, natural peaty water. PLEASE TAKE FOOD and MAINLY ENOUGH WATER with you for the whole day. There is nothing in the mountains! DO NOT FORGET YOUR SWIMSUIT (unless you plan to use the naturist beach ;-)) We will meet at the Praha - Černý Most bus station - platform 6. The bus station is actually below the metro line so you have to take the first stairs down. Platform 6 should be right here where you see the yellow RegioJet bus. I'm easily recognizable - tall, slim, green cap. Estimated return back to Prague at 9 p.m. Buy your ticket here (you can cancel it anytime if something), the bus is almost always full (especially now in summer) so do it in advance: [https://regiojet.cz/?departureDate=2026-06-20&tariffs=REGULAR&fromLocationId=10202003&fromLocationType=CITY&toLocationId=17904003&toLocationType=CITY](https://regiojet.cz/?departureDate=2026-06-20&tariffs=REGULAR&fromLocationId=10202003&fromLocationType=CITY&toLocationId=17904003&toLocationType=CITY) **Prague-Liberec - AN 9:00,** **Liberec AN - Prague 19:40** Here is the approximate trail [https://mapy.com/s/japenasute](https://mapy.com/s/japenasute) I reserve the right to adjust the trail a bit depending on the group :-) This event is free of charge (you just need money for bus tickets and train (around 300-350 CZK), but any **contribution for organizing and to cover the subscription fees is more than welcome** (100+ CZK is recommended, but it's totally up to you how much you think the trip was worth, your financial possibilities etc.). I'm looking forward to seeing you all again! Jirka 🙏🤗

**The ABSOLUTE BEST place to be on a Saturday night in Prague! 🤩🍹** Every Saturday, we take over a stunning venue right in the city center and give you **total freedom to mingle at your own pace**. There’s no hand-holding, name tags, or stiff corporate icebreakers here—just a room full of great people skipping the small talk and **sparking real connections**. ✨ During peak hours, the room gets **TOTALLY MAGNETIC** and sometimes even beautifully chaotic. And to be honest, we love it exactly like this! Bar Nomads is all about pure social flow! ⚡🔥 If that’s your vibe, drop the city masks and dive headfirst into our lovely Hoffa madness. You’ll leave feeling energized, deeply connected, and a little bit more like **a true Praguer.** 😎🤙

Talk 1 **Title: The Platform Is the People: SLAs, DORA and Trust at Billions of Requests a Month** By: Harry Bouras Role / LinkedIn: AI & Cloud Engineering leader, formerly heading the API organisation of a leading, extremely global and multicultural corporation. LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/harry-bouras/ Abstract: Most "platform" talks are about tools. This one isn't. Heading the API organisation of a leading, extremely global and multicultural corporation, interconnecting decades of legacy systems while serving billions of requests a month and scaling across both Azure and Google Cloud, taught me a contrarian lesson the hard way: at that volume, platforms don't fail on technology, and cloud bills don't explode because of bad Terraform. They fail, or succeed, on how the organisation is set up to own, deliver and grow the thing. The org chart is the real architecture. I'll walk through the levers that actually moved the needle, each anchored in real moments from that scale. How SLAs, framed as clarity rather than punishment, change engineer behaviour more than any dashboard. Why extending trust and time to a team up front - the most uncomfortable thing a leader can do, is precisely what raises build quality and cuts the rework you can't afford at billions of requests. What genuinely changed when we dragged a waterfall-shaped organisation toward iterative, Scrum-based delivery, and why that was about shortening feedback loops, not adding ceremonies. And how DORA metrics became our objective answer to a question every team argues about: what actually makes a successful Senior Software Engineer and what a DevOps engineer? Then the human core, told honestly, which means told as comedy. What makes a good manager in this world, narrated through the things I was certain about and was completely wrong about. The running joke is also the real point: nearly every instinct that made me a good engineer made me a mediocre manager until I unlearned it. Finally, a look at what we're all about to get wrong together: AI is forcing DevOps to grow up into DevSecOps - and the teams that handle it well will be the ones that already have the ownership, trust and growth culture this talk is really about. Talk 2 **Postmortem Culture: Turning Failures into Learning, Not Blame** By: Dani Yelovitch Most engineering teams treat incidents as embarrassments to bury — a quick fix, a vague Slack message, and everyone moves on. This talk argues for a different approach: treating every failure as a gift. The core idea is blameless postmortems — a practice pioneered at Google and Netflix where the goal isn't to find a scapegoat, but to understand how the system (people, tools, processes) allowed a failure to happen in the first place. If a human made a mistake, the real question is: why did the system make that mistake easy to make? The talk would cover: What a good postmortem looks like (and the common ways they go wrong) How to run a blameless review without it becoming a blame-by-committee session Turning action items into actual change, not a graveyard doc nobody reads Building psychological safety so engineers report problems early instead of hiding them The key takeaway: teams that learn from failure faster than their competitors ship better software with fewer catastrophic incidents — not because they have better engineers, but because they've built better feedback loops. **Talk 3:** Title: From Service Organization to Self-Service: Platform Engineering in Action By Pavel Bureš from Sky Modern engineering organisations accumulate platform silos faster than they can pay them down — each team picking its own way to provision workloads, databases, queues and caches, each with subtly different security, observability and cost profiles. In this talk we share how we are tackling that problem at scale through a Platform Engineering practice built on the principle of a unified, abstracted interface for application-centric configuration — an approach that shifts platform teams from "ticket-driven plumbing" to product thinking: stable contracts, golden paths, and self-service by default. In the second half we zoom in on PEaaS (Persistence Engineering as a Service), our concrete implementation of these principles for stateful workloads. We will walk through the architecture — Crossplane 2.0 composition functions on EKS, application-centric Kubernetes claims (XRs), and a tenant-onboarding model that automates IAM, VPC endpoints, OIDC and S3 provisioning — and how it abstracts heterogeneous backends (Keyspaces, Aurora DSQL, Redis Cloud, and Kafka on EKS) behind one consistent interface. Attendees will leave with: A practical pattern for designing engineering platforms in their own organisations. A reference architecture for persistence-as-a-service on Crossplane. Honest lessons on standardisation, tenant onboarding and platform adoption.
