Platform Engineering revolves around finding the most suitable abstraction for the complex challenges encountered during the development process. With Crossplane, you can establish one such abstraction layer for cloud infrastructure and application deployment across multiple providers. It is built on the stable Kubernetes API, known for its reliability over recent years.

This webinar will illustrate how to structure your processes using Crossplane compositions, fostering a cohesive approach where Developers and the Platform Team share clear responsibilities. Moreover, we will explore the integration of Crossplane with GitOps Tooling like ArgoCD, enabling a comprehensive full end-to-end GitOps approach to eradicate configuration drift and streamline your deployments.

The webinar will demonstrate:

* How to structure the workflow using Crossplane compositions. We show you how to achieve a state of shared responsibility between developers and the Platform Team, enabling collaboration and efficient resource management.
* The integration of Crossplane with GitOps tooling like ArgoCD. Attendees will be introduced to the concept of full end-to-end GitOps, which eliminates configuration drift in deployments and ensures a seamless, automated workflows for developers.
* An example on how to effectively implement Crossplane in their platform engineering strategy, optimize resource management, and leverage full end-to-end GitOps for streamlined deployment processes.

After a 30-minute talk there’ll be a 15-minute Q&A, for which we encourage you to submit questions in advance.
A webinar recording and related materials will be shared with all attendees after the event.

**Sponsors**
Meetups aren't free. Thank you to our sponsors for providing a platform (pun intended) to make this meetup a reality!

**GrubHub**
Thank you [GrubHub](https://www.grubhub.com/) for sponsoring the venue for this meetup!

**Coder**
Coder is a secure, self-hosted cloud development environment that quickly provisions any dev environment either on-prem or in your public or private cloud. Onboarding takes minutes instead of days. Source code & data is moved from end-user laptops into your centralized & secure control resulting in increased productivity, governance and a better experience for your devs with immediate cost savings. At scale, Coder's customers such as Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, several NYC Hedge funds, Vanguard and many other well-known FSS institutions have all gained significant economic impact for their development orgs.

**Talk #1: Building AI/ML Infrastructure for Finance with Open Source (Tucker Vento)**
Bloomberg is a global engineering firm that has made significant investments into embracing AI/ML in our products. In order to support the scale and diversity of our ML development efforts while also keeping pace with the developing trends across the industry, we've adopted and contributed to numerous open source products to ensure our scalability and flexibility in this rapidly expanding space. Come learn how Bloomberg has built our AI/ML infrastucture platforms using open source and cloud native technologies, and how this strategy has yielded better products more rapidly for our engineers.

**Talk #2: To Be Announced**
**Registration**
Space is limited so we are requiring registration for this event. We will only be able to check in registered attendees whose first and last name match their identification. We cannot accommodate guests that are not registered attendees. Please do not hesitate to RSVP, but if your plans change we would appreciate it if you return to update your attendance status.
