​Agenda

​18:00 | Check-in, drinks and snacks

​18:30 | Welcome Speech - Leaseweb

​18:40 | 🎤Topology-aware cloud compute: Building predictable GPU instances on Kubernetes

​Speakers:
Lukas Stockner & Peter Bangert, both Platform Engineers at Stelia, building a platform to simplify and scale AI workloads across distributed compute resources.

​Abstract:
Modern GPU workloads do not just need “some CPUs” and “some memory”; they need resources that are physically close, isolated, and predictable. In this talk we show how Stelia builds topology-aware cloud compute on Kubernetes, mapping Linux CPU, memory, NUMA, cgroup, and device information through Kubernetes scheduling and into QEMU so GPU instances behave like the hardware they were promised.

​19:10 | 🎤 MetaCloud: beyond multi-cloud. Turning fragmented infrastructure into one programmable resource

​Speaker: Gabriele Fronzé, CEO and Co-Founder of Elemento Cloud, democratizing cloud computing with vendor-neutral solutions that provide greater control, lower costs, and reduced environmental impact.

​Abstract: Multi-cloud promised freedom and delivered fragmentation: every provider with its own APIs, its own economics, its own lock-in. Its own UI. This talk introduces the MetaCloud, a vendor-neutral layer that turns heterogeneous public providers, private hardware and edge sites into a single programmable pool. A pool of resources handled via an output-first intent layer. Covering what it is, why it is becoming necessary, how it works in practice, and what it changes in terms of control, cost and environmental impact.

19:40 | Q&A

20:00 | Networking over drinks, snacks and music

Moderation: Melody Sofia Eroshevich, Site Reliability Engineer & Community Lead at CLOUDETEER and Co-founder of DD-IX e.V., Dresden’s first Internet Exchange, with a focus on infrastructure, reliability, and open-source. Passionate about community and knowledge sharing. Cloudeteer is a cloud consulting company operating complex architectures for its clients.
