At OSMC 2025, Daniel Mitterdorfer delivered a talk that hit a sore spot for many engineers, SREs, and architects in the room: Capacity Planning with the Universal Scalability Law. The session tackled one of the most uncomfortable (and common) questions in infrastructure engineering: “We expect 50% more users next quarter. How many more servers do we need?” Instead of relying on gut feelings or optimistic vendor promises, Daniel introduced us to a mathematical model that turns "guessing" into...

I arrived at the bright Studio Balan in the north of Munich early, greeted by a line of coffee mugs and a warm Welcome from the organizers. Before the talks started we had a casual ice‑breaker – a quick game to get in touch with the other conferee. The first session kicked off with Antonio Cardace’s deep dive into Combining Kubernetes and VLLM to Deliver Scalable, Distributed Inference with llm‑d. Antonio explained why classic load‑balancing isn’t enough for large language model (LLM)...

With experience as former Tech Lead of the Observability team at Cloudflare how is now at DuckDuckGo, he brought firsthand insight into the challenges of modern alert management. Colin introduced Onotify, an alternative to Prometheus Alertmanager. As someone...

From Hype to Reality How many of you actually have OpenTelemetry in production right now? When Diana Todea asked this during her session at OSMC 2025, the lack of hands in the room proved her point.

She shared her "serendipity journey" that led her from building the first OTel exams to founding the Romanian localization group....
