Talk 1

Unlocking Platform Engineering for Organizational Success by Manuel Pais, Co-author of the "Team Topologies" book

Platform engineering has established itself as a reliable approach for the cloud native tech generation.

But what really makes a standout platform?
Is it the technology?
Is it a product focus?
And how do we measure “organizational success” from a platform point of view?

Rather than theorize, let’s look at how large, forward-thinking organizations like Adidas, Spotify, ING or SAP are leveraging platform engineering to accelerate and simplify the delivery of software at scale. Turns out a good platform approach not only provides helpful, easy to use services, but can actually unlock organizational bottlenecks and improve team dynamics and interactions (aka “the culture”). Some proven patterns include organizing teams along value streams inside coherent platform groupings, setting expectations for platform interactions (beyond the APIs!), focusing on business and flow metrics, intentionally addressing consumer/provider mismatches, a platform manifesto for shared understanding, and more!

Join this talk to unlock your platform engineering success!

Talk 2

The Beginning Of A Journey To The Edge with Talos Kubernetes by Ryan Gough and Khaled Hammoun @ JYSK

JYSK operates in over 48 countries, with more than 3,500 stores worldwide—each store representing the true edge of our global enterprise. But how do you deliver modern digital solutions to such a diverse, distributed, and resource-constrained environment?

Join us as we share our journey to the edge: the motivations behind our strategy, the real-world challenges we faced, and the lessons learned from our failures and successes. Imagine deploying to thousands of stores, each with its own unique configurations and often unpredictable network conditions. Our mission: build a solution so lightweight and flexible enough to run anywhere, from the most powerful servers to the humblest machines.

Bandwidth limitations? Hardware diversity? We faced it all. Discover how Talos Linux became a game changer, enabling us to deliver a unified, reliable platform across every store—no matter the constraints.

But this is just the beginning. We’ll share our vision for the future, the next steps in our infrastructure evolution, and how these innovations can transform not just JYSK, but any enterprise looking to reach its true edge.Curious ? Join us and find out!
