Etcd 101: The parts they don't teach to you

Etcd powers Kubernetes and many distributed systems, yet its internals remain a mystery to most engineers. In this advanced, demo-driven session, we’ll open the black box and explore how etcd really works: Raft consensus, WAL and snapshot mechanics, MVCC, and compaction. Through live failure and recovery demos, you’ll see what happens during leader elections, partitions, and performance bottlenecks. You’ll leave with practical patterns for tuning, securing, and operating etcd in real production environments.

Cloud Exit: Back to the Iron Age

Since the word cloud was coined more than twenty years ago, the industry has been in a constant rush toward cloud-first. But now, after years of acceleration, many companies are suddenly shifting direction: it’s time to talk about cloud repatriation. Are we really heading back to the Iron Age?
Driven by uncontrolled costs, data sovereignty requirements, and the need for tighter governance, more and more organizations are exploring a way out. In this twenty-year journey, we’ll uncover the reasons behind this trend, the alternatives available, and what the future holds.

Accelerate your business: Data driven approaches

It’s no secret that data is the most valuable currency in modern business. In recent years, we’ve learned that data is not just a tool to improve operations: it’s an essential asset for preventing growth from stalling. Success depends not only on entering the market quickly, but on doing so with strong analytical strategies.
Yet building data-collection and data-refinement processes often sounds expensive and time-consuming. I’ll show how today’s cloud-native services and data-centric software solutions make it surprisingly simple to set up efficient, scalable data pipelines that accelerate your business.
