About us
Let's learn to code together.
We are training people to become coding friendly. Learning the mind-set is more important than the particular coding language.
We are practicing collaborative activities like Study Jams, Coding Clubs, Code Wars, DevFests, etc.
And we provide hand holding and office hours when you need it the most - just ask / let us know how we can help.
This initiative is sponsored by OpenHub: https://openhubproject.com/
The purpose of this meetup group: Continuous co-learning to achieve project-oriented goals.
You should join if you are local and consider yourself as a coder / developer, or want to learn technology to the level when you can use it for projects or for getting a job.
Please feel out this form to let us know, what technology you are interested in learning and what you are willing to teach/share.

HVTech virtual: AI solutions
·OnlineOnlineWe are happy to introduce this month speakers:
- Sai Joshitha Kathari with her talk "Building Self-Healing Infrastructure: AI-Assisted Reliability Engineering for Modern Distributed Systems",
- Uday Shankar Bhowal with his talk "Innovation using Open AI solutions in Business Digital Technology for Healthcare technology". He will showcase a few automated solutions utilizing RAG and Supervised Learning to enhance and improve business performance utilized in healthcare settings for cost savings and efficiency improvements
Sai's talk "Building Self-Healing Infrastructure: AI-Assisted Reliability Engineering for Modern Distributed Systems" abstract:
Modern distributed systems generate massive amounts of operational data, but incident detection and troubleshooting often remain highly manual and reactive. This session explores how AI-assisted operational workflows can help engineering teams reduce alert fatigue, improve incident response, and build more resilient cloud-native systems.
The talk will cover practical approaches for combining observability signals, deployment context, and operational telemetry to improve incident detection and reliability workflows in Kubernetes and distributed infrastructure environments. Attendees will also learn how AI-assisted automation can support Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) practices without replacing human operational decision-making.
Open Q&A and community discussion to follow.
