While Alvar who wrote the recap of yesterday was at the OSMC for the first time, you know me probably from one off the earlier editions and so do many attendees. This is the reason I really enjoyed most seeing familiar faces and having a chat with people. And this does not mean I did not enjoy giving a workshop on Tuesday or the talks yesterday as everything at OSMC is high quality in my opinion and I can compare it with many different conferences I attended over the years. The Morning Easy...
Although I have been an Icinga developer for over two years now, this was my very first OSMC. I went to meet some of our community members and see what others are doing in the monitoring domain. Getting new impressions always motivates me and helps me avoid getting stuck in groupthink. Thus, I tried to visit a variety of talks, both in my field and on topics with which I am not familiar. However, I usually try to avoid the latest hype. Without further ado, let's get started! The Morning...

Hello, I'm Leander and I work as a consultant at NETWAYS Professional Services. I’m excited to share my impressions of the Open Tech Day 2025 – Grafana Edition.

The structured, high-stakes world of firefighting intrigued me the moment I saw Daniil Doronkin’s talk in the OSMC 2024 program. As someone who’s been involved in incident management on-call rotations and postmortem reviews, I was curious how the world of emergency response could inform how we handle IT incidents. Doronkin’s talk offered more than just an interesting metaphor - it provided a practical framework that I’ve since reflected on deeply. Introducing the Speaker and the Topic At OSMC...

This year, it was again my task to organize the Birthday Event for the Foreman Project. A tradition we started with the 7th Birthday in 2016! The event evolved and changed over the years with ATIX helping us by sharing responsibility, it survived a pandemic, and this year it seems to come back stronger than ever. So one big change you can already see in the headline. While I started planning the VoxPupuli community reached out to me asking about the option of co-locating another event and...
When Numbers Tell Tales: A Personal Take on Dave McAllister's Talk Have you ever read a headline claiming that "90% of users prefer this tool" and thought, “Wait, who are these users?” That’s exactly the kind of question Dave McAllister wants you to ask. At OSMC 2024, Dave—Senior Open Source Technologist at NGINX—took the stage with a presentation that felt more like a wake-up call than a lecture: "The Subtle Art of Misleading with Statistics." As a trainee in IT Specialist for Data and...
