AGENDA
18:00 - 18:45 Welcome “meet and greet”
Informal networking whilst enjoying some tasty pizza and fresh drinks.
18:45 - 19:00 Opening of the meetup
Hans De Bal, Amplexor
19:00 - 19:30 Alfresco at cloud-scale
Nic Doye & Sergiu Vidrascu, Alfresco
The hype over Kubernetes (K8s) is real and is getting bigger and bigger - GitHub, NY Times, Box and many others are already using K8s to automate application deployment, scaling and management. Find out why and how Alfresco is also adopting this container orchestration system, as Nic Doye & Sergiu Vidrascu will even share examples of where they hit the wall. It'll be entertaining for you and embarrassing for them.
19:30 - 20:00 : Alfresco rhymes with the cloud
Younes Regaieg, Amplexor
Adopting an open platform and hooking into off-the-shelf cloud services is a safe route to adapt and evolve, while exporting part of the burden and keeping cost and quality under control. Find out how you can reduce time-to-value and maximize return on investment when integrating Alfresco Content Services (ACS) by leveraging Cloud services. Younes Regaieg will guide you through a global organization use case where we use Azure Cognitive Services to enrich our ACS indexes with content translations on the fly, in a multilingual context.
20:00 - 21:00 : Q&A and networking
A time to share your questions and get feedback from experts and peers.
