New York K-Pop Rhythm Dance Social Night

Thu, Oct 1, 2:30 PM
From Kpop Rhythm Collective Dance Social Club

If you have been looking for a space to dance to your favorite K-pop tracks without the pressure of a formal class or a competition, this is for you. We are hosting our next New York K-Pop Rhythm Dance Social Night, an informal gathering where the focus is simply on enjoying the music and moving together. Whether you are a long-time fan of choreography or just someone who enjoys the rhythm, you will find a welcoming group of people here to share the floor with. We keep the format loose so that everyone feels comfortable jumping in. We will play a mix of popular hits and deeper cuts, and there will be plenty of time between songs to chat, grab some water, and meet others in the local K-pop community. It is a casual environment intended for making connections and having fun, regardless of your experience level. We would love to see you there, so please go ahead and RSVP if you think you can make it so we have a better idea of how many people to expect.

The Past, Present, and Future of Performance Engineering

The Past, Present, and Future of Performance Engineering

Thu, Oct 22, 11:00 PM
From New York UX Speed and Web Performance Group
4.8

Performance engineering has never been static. From the early days of mainframes and transaction processing to distributed systems, cloud computing, agile development, and DevOps, performance professionals have repeatedly had to adapt to changes in how software is built and operated. Artificial Intelligence is now accelerating that transformation once again. This talk looks at the evolution of performance engineering through three lenses: what changed in the past, what is changing today, and what those changes may tell us about the future. We will examine how cloud, DevOps, and AI are reshaping performance practices, where traditional approaches are becoming less effective, and how the boundaries between development, operations, observability, and performance engineering are increasingly blurred. Finally, we will explore what this means for performance engineers themselves. Which responsibilities may disappear or be automated? Which new ones will emerge? And what skills will performance professionals need as performance engineering continues to evolve? The future is not set in stone, but the patterns of the past may offer useful clues about where the discipline is heading. [Alex Podelko](https://alexanderpodelko.com/Bio.html) is a **Senior Performance Engineer** at Amazon Web Services (AWS), where he focuses on performance testing and optimization of Amazon Aurora. He has worked in performance engineering since 1997, holding performance-focused roles at MongoDB, Oracle/Hyperion, Aetna, and Intel before joining AWS. Alex writes and speaks regularly on performance engineering, with a particular interest in how the discipline is evolving and how performance professionals can work more effectively across development, operations, architecture, and other traditionally separate disciplines. He currently serves on the SPEC Research Group Steering Committee. We will have **food and drinks** and as always, we are going to have **geekaways** with **geeky prizes** provided by our sponsors. **Agenda:** 6:00PM - Arrive at the venue, meet other members 6:15PM - Event starts 6:30PM - **The Past, Present, and Future of Performance Engineering** (Alexander Podelko) 7:15PM - Q&A 7:45PM - "Books and Stuff" geekaways 8:00PM - Open Discussion, Networking Make sure to **fill out your legal name** and **bring your ID** to show at security desk.
