AGENDA
18:00 – Ankommen · Begrüßung . Leute kennenlernen · Food & Drinks genießen
19:00 – Vortrag: Fabric Planning: Unternehmensplanung inbegriffen?
im Anschluß – Offene Runde · Fragen, Austausch & gemütlicher Ausklang

Abtrakt:
Vortrag: Fabric Planning: Unternehmensplanung inbegriffen?

Wie, jetzt soll man mit Fabric auch planen können, Daten eingeben und zurückschreiben, basierend auf dem semantischen Modell aus Power BI? Das ist allerdings eine Funktion, die Fachleute schon lange gefordert haben, und da hat Microsoft einfach eine Lösung gekauft und integriert. Aber wie sieht das aus, wie "integriert" sich das eigentlich mit Fabric, und was sind die Möglichkeiten? Nach diesem demo-reichen Vortrag seid ihr schlauer, ob Fabric Plan wirklich schon für eine prozessbasierte Finanzplanung im Unternehmen tauglich ist.

Save the Date: Tuesday, November 10th, 2026:

#CodeReview #ShowYourCode #JustWatch #Developer #Beginners #Pros #Experts #Students #Learning #Fun #Methods #Knowledge

This time we will be at ServiceNow, Börsenstrasse 2-4, Goetheplatz, near Hauptwache.

We will have food and drinks.

Please bring your laptop to show your code! Please also bring adapters for the projector!

You don’t have any code to show, don’t worry. Just watch the show and join the discussions! Or maybe there is a project on github you want to show?

Photos will be taken during the event and they will be published on the web to promote the meetup. You express your approval by joining the event.

Please ensure you are legally entitled to show the code in public - especially when it is the intellectual property of your employer.

Agentic Coding Tools wie Claude Code oder Codex gehören für viele von uns längst zum Entwickleralltag. Aber welches Modell nimmt man für welche Aufgabe? Haiku, Sonnet oder Opus, lokal oder in der Cloud, mit welchem Effort? Ehrlich gesagt kann das kaum jemand zuverlässig beurteilen.

Genau hier setzt Model Routing an: Ein vorgeschalteter Router analysiert die Aufgabe und entscheidet, welches Modell am besten passt, oder schlägt eine Auswahl vor.

Die Challenge
Bindet in Teams einen Model Router in euren Agent-Harness ein, zum Beispiel in Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode oder euer eigenes Setup. Ob ihr dafür eine bestehende Open-Source-Lösung nutzt oder selbst etwas baut, entscheidet ihr. Mögliche Ansätze

• Intelligentes Routing: Ein kleines, spezialisiertes Modell (z. B. Jev) oder eine lokale Alternative trifft die Wahl.
• Regelbasiertes Routing: Heuristiken und klare Kriterien bestimmen das Modell.
• Adaptives Routing: Das Modell wird während der Arbeit gewechselt, etwa wenn ein Versuch fehlschlägt.
• Model Advisor: Der Router empfiehlt, du entscheidest.

Es geht nicht um die perfekte Lösung, sondern ums Ausprobieren. Kreative Ideen, unerwartete Wendungen und bemerkenswerte Stolpersteine sind ein genauso guter Beitrag wie ein funktionierender Router. Was passiert zum Beispiel mit dem Prompt-Cache, wenn mitten in der Session das Modell wechselt?

Ablauf

• 17:00 Ankommen und Kick-off mit kurzer Einführung ins Thema
• 17:30 Hacking in Teams
• 19:00 Pizza und Drinks
• 20:15 Show & Tell: Jedes Team zeigt kurz, was es ausprobiert und herausgefunden hat
• bis 21:00 Ausklang und Austausch

Was du mitbringen solltest

• Deinen Laptop mit einem funktionierenden Agentic Coding Tool, zum Beispiel Claude Code, Codex oder OpenCode
• Eigene Modellzugänge. Wir stellen keine API-Keys bereit. Ein kostenloser Zugang oder ein lokal laufendes Modell reicht aber völlig aus.
• Neugier und Lust aufs Experimentieren

Für wen?
Für Entwicklerinnen und Entwickler, die schon mit AI Coding Tools arbeiten und Lust haben, einen Blick unter die Haube zu werfen. Grundlagen erklären wir nicht, dafür gibt es viel Raum zum Ausprobieren und für den Austausch.
Wir freuen uns auf einen lockeren Abend mit spannenden Ideen und neuen Gesichtern!

Komm zu unserem nächsten Claude-Treffen 👋

Thema wird noch bekannt gegeben.

🎤 Du möchtest selbst ein Thema vortragen? Schick uns gern dein Thema in unserem Call-for-Speakers-Formular.

Gude, Product People! 👋
GenAI makes product teams dramatically faster: more ideas, more prototypes, more code. But speed at the task level isn't the whole story. As AI moves from tool to teammate, it quietly rewires the things that make product organizations work: autonomy, clarity, ownership, trust, and the sense that your own contribution still matters.

Prof. Dr. Lutz Göcke cuts through the AI hype to the organizational reality. He shows where AI creates real leverage across the product lifecycle – and where it creates new fault lines: shrinking autonomy, blurred roles between PM, design and engineering, the quiet fear of being replaced, and unclear accountability when "the AI did it".

The uncomfortable truth: more output doesn't automatically mean a better product or a healthier organization. The reflex is to push for more speed. The real task is one of leadership and design.

🎯 What to expect:
• Where AI actually speeds you up – and where it quietly breaks your team
• Exclusive first look: unpublished data from a live study on AI & product work in 2030
• 6 bold theses to fight over – agree, disagree, argue it out
• Great conversations, cold drinks & pizza 🍕 (thanks to R3ASON)

Whether you're a PM, engineering lead, or in product leadership yourself: if you've felt the org-level side effects of "AI-first" without quite being able to name them, this evening is for you.

💣 Making users happy with service level indicators and observability

• Description: A single sign-on system like Keycloak is a central component of the application landscape. Users depend on it to log in to their applications. Detailed monitoring and analysis options help prevent outages or resolve them quickly. Keycloak ships with Prometheus metrics and OpenTelemetry support out-of-the-box. This allows you to monitor and trace all your IAM calls and spot errors and slow requests. We also provide a guide to service-level indicators and a matching Grafana dashboard for defining and monitoring behavior from the user's perspective. This talk offers practical advice on using Keycloak and is also a case study of how observability can be implemented for custom-built applications.
• Speaker: Alexander Schwartz, Principal Software Engineer @ IBM (Keycloak)
• Bio: Alexander Schwartz is a Principal Software Engineer at IBM. At work and in his spare time he codes for Open Source projects. In a previous job he worked as a software architect and IT consultant. At conferences and at user groups he talks about Observability, Keycloak, APIs and how to run this in a maintainable and scalable way.
