MEET THE SPEAKERS
19 JUNE
At the Software Architecture Summit, experienced architects and engineering leaders share lessons learned from designing and operating large-scale systems.
Through focused sessions, speakers cover platform engineering, event-driven systems, API-first design, and integrating AI capabilities into production environments.
Good systems start with good decisions. Join the Software Architecture Summit!

𝐒𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐓𝐢𝐭𝐥𝐞: Guardians of the Cloud-Native Galaxy 𝗦𝘆𝗻𝗼𝗽𝘀𝗶𝘀: The galaxy is vast, and microservices chaos is real. Guardians, assemble! Join us to explore the Quarkus Superheroes saga - a reference architecture uniting REST, event-driven, and some AI infusion. You’ll be equipped with tactical gear for victory: mastering local dev flows, isolating "upstream" dependencies for bulletproof testing, and deploying to cloud-native environments. Whether building reactive or traditional apps, you'll learn to fight bugs like supervillains. Suit up! It’s time to rescue your code from the void and become a true Guardian of the Cloud.
Christophe Nasarre
Senior Software Engineer
In addition to developing and shipping software on Microsoft stacks for 30+ years, Christophe has been working as a Technical Reviewer for MSPress, Addison-Wesley and other publishing companies since 1996 on books such as "CLR via C#" and the last editions of Windows Internals. He has also wrote the second edition of Pro .NET Memory Management with Konrad Kokosa and Kevin Gosse. 𝐒𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐓𝐢𝐭𝐥𝐞: Understanding .NET internals to write better code: build your own CLI tools 𝗦𝘆𝗻𝗼𝗽𝘀𝗶𝘀: Since I started coding, I've always written tools to better understand the OS APIs or the runtime services. With .NET, there is now a canonical way to build CLI tools that are easily deployed, updated and could be used to streamline your CI, monitoring and troubleshooting pipelines. This session guides you step by step to build your own CLI tools in C#. Next, we will dig into the different APIs and nuget packages available to you for performance counters, direct communication with the .NET diagnostics services for GC monitoring and memory dump analysis. Expect minimal theory, a lot of code with tips and tricks to improve your applications performances, monitoring and stability.
Bogdan Vizureanu
Co-founder
𝗠𝗼𝗱𝗲𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗼𝗿: Bogdan is one of the co-founders of Code for Romania and he is currently one of the Technology Officers that help in coordinating the project teams and in delivering the civic apps the organization’s volunteers are working on. Having over 10 years of experience in .net, flavoring from version 2.0 in a POS Windows application, to multi-tenant Azure enterprise solutions, Bogdan is also a Technical Team Lead for a technology company whenever he is not managing the coding teams in the biggest civic tech ONG in Romania.
