Tech Internals Conf 2025 brought together over 250 engineers and tech leads in Berlin for a full day of smart talks, real conversations, and rooftop networking.
We explored infrastructure, storage, and security — not just in theory, but through practical stories, production lessons, and honest Q&A. And of course, the best insights often came during hallway chats and casual breaks.
Thanks to everyone who joined, asked sharp questions, and shared what’s really happening in their systems. You made the event what it was.

📅 Join us on June 17 in Berlin for a special in-person meetup:
“LINSTOR Is Like Kubernetes, But for Block Devices & Power to the Cluster: Self-Hosting in the Real World”
This free meetup is designed for cloud-native engineers, DevOps professionals, and system architects who want to go deeper into self-hosting practices and modern open-source infrastructure tools.
🧠 What to expect?
🔹 Talk 1: “LINSTOR Is Like Kubernetes, But for Block Devices”
→ A deep dive into LINSTOR, an open-source storage orchestrator from the maintainers of DRBD. Learn how it works, how to configure it, and how it brings Kubernetes-like control to your block storage.
🔹 Talk 2: “Power to the Cluster: Self-Hosting in the Real World”
→ Lessons from real-world self-hosted Kubernetes clusters: networking pitfalls, storage challenges, high-availability myths, and survival tips for on-prem ops.
🎟 Attendance is free, but seats are limited — register now https://www.meetup.com/de-DE/tech-internals-community/events/307977244/?eventOrigin=group_upcoming_events
See you there! 🚀

David Leimroth talking about the hands-on reality of running Kubernetes on your own hardware. Lessons learned, tough spots, and common mistakes to avoid.

Andrei Kvapil on stage — breaking down how LINSTOR works — think Kubernetes, but for block devices. Fast, fault-tolerant, and open-source.

Great turnout yesterday — 36 engineers joined us for the TIC meetup.
Andrei Kvapil walked us through LINSTOR (Kubernetes vibes, but for block devices), and David Leimroth shared practical lessons from running self-hosted Kubernetes in the real world.
Plenty of great questions, sharp insights, and lively discussions — thanks to everyone who came and stayed to chat. See you next time!
