    How We Avoid Outages: Circuit Breakers and Fail-Safe Patterns for Distributed Systems

    in-person

    Learn how we use circuit breakers and fail-safe patterns to keep microservices resilient in production — from app-level implementations in Quarkus to mesh-level strategies with Istio. Real-world lessons, fallbacks, and observability tips included.

  3. 5:40 PM EEST

    Tracing the Truth with OpenTelemetry

    in-person

    Democratize the fundamentals of observability and shed some light over distributed tracing, the open-source standard, and the technical details which make them possible.

  4. 6:05 PM EEST

    Orchestrating and Monitoring Data Pipelines with Argo Workflows and Prometheus

    in-person

    Introduce the community to Argo Workflows for managing and automating data pipelines, also demonstrate how to integrate Prometheus for effective monitoring and alerting.

  5. 6:30 PM EEST

    Intelligent Conversational Framework for Real-Time Data Pipeline Diagnostics and Operations in Cloud-Native Environments

    in-person
    1. Introduce AI Agents and Orchestration • Explain the role of LLM-based agents in data engineering workflows. • Show how tools like LangChain and LangGraph enable modular reasoning and API integration.
    2. Define a Real-Time Metric Retrieval Pipeline • Outline how to collect diagnostic metrics from a Spark-based environment (e.g., Databricks) using APIs and telemetry.
    3. Demonstrate an LLM-Powered Assistant for Data Operations • Present “Data Buddy,” an agent that interprets technical issues, retrieves data, and responds in natural language. • Highlight its ability to explain diagnostics, suggest actions, and support both technical and non-technical users.
