[EN] When Tools Are Missing: A Meetup on Infrastructure Workarounds - Martin Beránek
Join us for an evening of creative problem-solving born from expensive SaaS bills and tools that don't quite fit. We'll share the pragmatic hacks that keep platforms running when budgets are tight and vendor solutions fall short: a Slack bot that shames engineers for console clicks instead of Terraform commits, screenshotting Metabase dashboards to warehouse displays because integrations are hard, auto-generating VPN configs from Okta groups, and replacing Datadog with Zabbix before the bill bankrupted us. This is platform engineering as it really happens—creative, cost-conscious, and occasionally questionable. Bring your war stories and leave with new tricks for your toolkit.
