Talk #1 - Enterprise GitOps in Regulated Environments: Balancing Speed and Compliance

Speaker: Alexandru Nișulescu, DevOps Engineer at ING Hubs Romania
Abstract: In highly regulated sectors like banking and healthcare, managing infrastructure demands a balance between speed and stringent compliance. This presentation unveils how GitOps supports scalability by treating all changes as version-controlled, auditable events. By leveraging Git as the definitive source of truth, teams can ensure full traceability, predictable rollbacks, and consistent policy enforcement, ultimately enhancing reliability and developer autonomy.

Talk #2 - Infrastructure as Code: From Spec to Secure Deployment

Speaker: Dumitru Pascu, Senior Solutions Architect, Amazon Web Services
Abstract: Imagine being able to articulate your infrastructure needs in straightforward language and receiving production-grade IaC in return! This session will cover the modern development workflow for Infrastructure as Code — from drafting structured specs to AI-driven code generation (Terraform/CDK), followed by security posture validation and operational troubleshooting. Expect live demos! 📽️
