Open Source in the Financial Industry - a developer's perspective : Elspeth Minty, Managing Director, RBC Capital Markets
Tuesday February 4, 2025 11:15am - 11:30am GMT
Doddington Forum 2
Finance may not be the first industry that comes to mind when thinking about open source, but open source software is core to much of what we do. This session will look at the advantages and challenges of open source in finance, from the point of view of the developers who work with it every day. It will cover:
- How and where we use open source, What are some of the things we need to think about when choosing to use open source in a project.
- Encouraging an open source mentality in developing our own proprietary code. Open source is as much a mindset as it is software and we can bring that mindset to proprietary development.
- Examples of successful collaborations across the financial industry in developing open source solutions to industry problems. In particular the Open RegTech initiative that is bringing together finance companies, regulators, industry bodies and technology companies.
- Importance of organizations, in particular FINOS, the FinTech Open Source foundation, in fostering these collaborations.

How open source companies win : Emily Omier, Founder, Emily Omier Consulting
Tuesday February 4, 2025 11:15am - 11:30am GMT
Grand Hall 2
Open source companies have to be able to compete both against their own open source project as well as with pure proprietary solutions in order to succeed. They also have to make their open source project into a competitive advantage, when if managed incorrectly it can instead be a massive risk. Emily Omier will talk about how open source companies need to think about their positioning in the ecosystem, their ideal users and ideal customers, and the relationship between their open source software, their commercial product and the business outcomes project and product are supposed to deliver if they want to succeed. Attendees will leave with a framework for creating a strategy to win, even in a cutthroat software market, with concrete examples of how successful open source companies have won in their markets.

I inherited this project, and all I got was all these angry users : Jamie Tanna, Chief Blogger, jvt.me
Tuesday February 4, 2025 11:15am - 11:30am GMT
Hardwick Hub
Although I'd previously helped maintain more well-maintained projects, moving into this project, with one other overworked maintainer who was largely working in the very little spare time they had, I found that my work was cut out for me.

It didn't help that this was also one of the most widely used Go libraries in a fairly well used niche, and a very regularly discussed and recommended option, but the complexity of the domain led to a lot of difficulty in predicting the way that the library is used, and we (as maintainers) are actively driven by the use-cases from our users.

It's taken a couple of years of work to improve our triage process, documentation and re-testing old issues to see if they had been fixed in the meantime, and we've still got _so much_ more to do.

You'll hear some first-hand examples of the difficulty of being an Open Source maintainer, and some tips you can follow as a good Open Source citizen, to improve life for the maintainers of projects you use.

For seasoned maintainers, this will all be very familiar. For folks who are primarily users of Open Source, you'll learn some behind-the-scenes insights into what it's actually like behind the issues/PRs.

Are You Not Entertained? Open Source Isn’t the Coliseum : Kat Cosgrove,Independent, Open Source Advocate and Jeremy Rickard, Microsoft, Principal Software Engineer
Tuesday February 4, 2025 11:35am - 12:15pm GMT
Hardwick Hub
What is the impact on contributors when maintainers fight, aren't welcoming, or don't lead inclusively? We are a community of doers who enable open source projects including Kubernetes, Prometheus, Envoy, and many others, but conflict between maintainers and contributors can negatively impact our projects and lead to resentment, drive contributors away, and in the worst of cases can escalate to code of conduct issues. When we maintainers don't have each other to lean on, what can we do? Sunlight is the best disinfectant and reflecting on these interactions can help us all do better and help our projects be more successful. In this talk, Kat and Jeremy will share some examples where communications went wrong, talk about the impact on contributors, and share a framework we can all use to do better.

When Your Open Source Turns To The Dark Side : Dotan Horovits, Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF), Developer Advocate, DevOps Specialist, Open Source Evangelist
Tuesday February 4, 2025 12:20pm - 12:35pm GMT
Grand Hall 2
Imagine waking up one morning to find out that your beloved open source tool, which lies at the heart of your system, is being relicensed. What does that mean? Can you still use it as before? Could the new license force you to open source your own business logic?

This doom’s day nightmare scenario isn’t hypothetical. It is, in fact, very real, for databases, for Infrastructure-as-Code tooling, and for other OSS, with several examples over the past year alone.

On this talk Horovits will review some of the less known risks of open source, and share his lessons learned facing such relicensing moves. If you use OSS, you’ll learn how to safeguard yourself. If you’re in the process of evaluating a new OSS, you’ll learn to look beyond the license and consider additional criteria.

Forked Communities: Project Re-licensing and Community Impact : Dawn Foster, Stephen Walli, James Governor
Tuesday February 4, 2025 1:35pm - 2:15pm GMT
Grand Hall 2
Many popular OSS projects are owned and driven by corporations, and in today's difficult economic climate, those companies are under increasing pressure to protect their businesses or show stronger returns for investors. One response to this pressure has been the relicensing of popular projects to more restrictive licenses despite there not being consistent evidence that this generates improved financial outcomes. In some cases, this relicensing has resulted in a hard fork of the original project. Both the relicensing and the resulting fork create turmoil for the users of that project and the community of contributors. The audience will gain an appreciation of why relicensing results in hostile forks and how to think about this issue when selecting projects for contribution or usage.

Tuesday February 4, 2025 1:35pm - 2:15pm GMT

Chip design workflows, particularly with hardware languages like SystemVerilog and UVM, face challenges due to limited high-quality training data for generative AI. This results in large language models (LLMs) struggling to provide accurate, context-aware assistance. This session introduces a framework that leverages open-source tools like Verible, Slang, and UVMLint to address these challenges. The multi-agent system improves hardware code development through iterative feedback loops and supports targeted UVM code reviews with a noise-reducing linting approach. This approach enhances LLM performance, improving development efficiency and code quality in semiconductor design.

Using European Open Source to build a Sovereign Multi-Cloud : Francisco Picolini, OpenNebula Systems, Open Source Community Manager
Tuesday February 4, 2025 2:20pm - 2:45pm GMT
Hardwick Hub
The European Commission has clearly identified open source as an strategic tool for bringing some balance to an EU cloud market currently dominated by a handful of non-EU hyperscalers. Part of that commitment comes through a series of ambitious, multi-million EU projects like the COGNIT project and the multi-country “Important Project of Common European Interest on Next Generation Cloud Infrastructure and Services” (IPCEI-CIS).

For the first time in the history of the European Union, it is the EU industry who will be leading large-scale open source projects aimed at building European strategic technologies.

In this talk we will explain in detail how specific European open source technologies are being brought together as part of some of those projects to start building Sovereign Multi-Cloud solutions that ensure interoperability and digital sovereignty for European users while preventing vendor lock-in in the cloud market, opening up competition in the emerging 5G/edge.

It has proven controversial, sparking debate about who may benefit – or not. Whilst the EU is yet to clarify what ‘stewardship’ shall entail, likely in 2025, there is little past practice as an internal governance principle within OSS.
Drawing upon key international law contexts where the ‘stewardship’ concept shapes governance regimes and informs stakeholders’ responsibilities, the presentation critically analyses potential implications of this approach for the future of OSS governance in the EU and beyond. For better or worse.

Reshaping the Web with the Solid Project : Jesse Wright, Louise Burke, Professor Pierre-Antoine Champin and Laurens Debackere
Tuesday February 4, 2025 2:50pm - 3:30pm GMT
Grand Hall 1
Imagine a Web where individuals truly control their personal data, where privacy, data portability, and user-centricity are foundational principles baked into the Web’s architecture. That’s the promise of Solid—a groundbreaking open-source initiative founded by Sir Tim Berners-Lee, inventor of the World Wide Web.

In October 2024, the Open Data Institute (ODI) took stewardship of the project to foster the open-source community and drive global adoption. In this session, Louise Burke (CEO, ODI) and Jesse Wright (Solid Lead, ODI) will provide a brief technical overview of Solid, highlight its adoption across projects and industries, and outline how you can contribute to its growth. Whether you’re a developer, policymaker or c-suite executive, join us in building a user-centric Web.

The future of platform engineering : Paula Kennedy, Nicki Watt, Leena Mooneeram, Shweta Vohra
Tuesday February 4, 2025 2:50pm - 3:30pm GMT
Hardwick Hub
As platform engineering continues to gain traction within the tech industry, the role of internal developer platforms (IDPs) is becoming essential in streamlining application delivery. According to Gartner, by 2026, 80% of large software engineering organisations will have established platform engineering teams. This prediction is already materialising, with the latest State of DevOps Report by DORA revealing that 89% of organisations are using some form of internal developer platform.

However, as Gartner positions platform engineering at the peak of its hype cycle, it raises the question: what comes next? Will the industry face the "trough of disillusionment," or will platform engineering continue to evolve and mature? This panel discussion will explore the future trajectory of platform engineering, examining current trends and their implications for the industry.

Key questions we will address include:
- Where are current trends in platform engineering taking us?
- Will the market see a proliferation of new tools, or will we see more consolidation?
- Will organisations move toward a single, unified platform, or will multiple, specialised platforms emerge to meet different needs?

Join our expert panelists as they share their insights and discuss what the future holds for platform engineering.

Stream: unlocking water data – the things we got wrong : Andrew Myers, Northumbrian Water, Project Lead for Stream & Lead Architect and Melissa Tallack, NWG Living Water, Stream Co-Lead
Tuesday February 4, 2025 5:35pm - 6:00pm GMT
Grand Hall 1
The concept behind Stream emerged back in Spring 2020 when eight water companies came together and agreed that it was better to explore the potential of open data together rather than each going it alone. Roll forward to the end of 2024 and Stream is now a well-established collaborative initiative between 16 of the UK’s major water companies and seven partners all with a shared vision to unlock water data to the benefit of customers, society and the environment.

The member water companies have progressed from publishing three simple datasets at the end of 2023 to 69 datasets in just under 12 months, including near real time event data relating to the high profile topic of storm overflow discharges.

Solid data sharing foundations have been put in place (people, process, data and technology) and the strategy for 2025-2028 has been agreed. The icing on the cake came as Stream was recognised at the 5th Open UK Awards, being awarded winner of the Open Data category.

But it hasn’t been all plain sailing. We got lots of things wrong on the way.

As Stream members, we have actively sought out and benefited from learning from other data sharing initiatives so we wanted to take this opportunity to tell the stories of what we got wrong, what we learned and ultimately, how we got a few things right.

Standardising ownership data to drive down costs and fight economic crime : Stephen Abbott Pugh, Open Ownership, Head of Technology
Wednesday February 5, 2025 11:15am - 11:30am GMT

Understanding beneficial ownership is a huge challenge faced by banks, know your customer and due diligence companies. Connecting data on the ownership and control of corporate vehicles from as many jurisdictions as possible is crucial to ensuring that ownership data can be used effectively in complex cases. Spreading usage of the Beneficial Ownership Data Standard - an open standard for exchanging data on how people own, control or benefit from companies and trusts - would help achieve this and improve the fight against economic crime and fraud.

Securing Your Software Supply Chain One Open Source Project at a Time : Lori Lorusso, Percona, Head of Community
Wednesday February 5, 2025 11:15am - 11:30am GMT
Hardwick Hub
Delivering software fast is one piece of the deployment puzzle, but delivering it securely is the glue that keeps your puzzle from falling apart. Software supply chain attacks are on the rise with security exploits directly targeting open source projects, central repositories, and software package managers. With 90% of enterprise companies using open source software in their builds no one is immune to these attacks and now more than ever the community is working hard to create safeguards and tooling to prevent potential attacks. The question then becomes who should you look to for best in class security protocols?

Thankfully the open source community is banding together and foundations like OpenSSF, CNCF and OWASP and companies are working to solve security problems. To help ensure a secure SDLC, these developer focused communities are investing time, energy, money and innovation in projects that provide security solutions. This talk will give a brief overview of some major attacks in the last decade, it will underscore the importance of securing your software supply chain at the source and will highlight a some open source projects that are on the market that are helping to close the security gaps.

Building AI platforms together, for everyone : Tolis Christomanos, Cheryl Hung, and Michel Murabito
Wednesday February 5, 2025 11:35am - 12:15pm GMT
Grand Hall 2
AI platform builders have a choice whether to use closed source or open source as the foundation. Closed source platforms provide many aspects of AI platforms, giving you more time to market to build products.

But open source models have really started to catch up, which gives you the ability to build a in-house platform that can be customised and tailored to your needs, with more choice and control.

To build that platform, you need an open source community and a number of components that are yet to be invented. While this emerging landscape already has some powerful capabilities, there's an opportunity for the community to innovate and create new components that can be used to power that PaaS.

As a long time Kubernetes community member, I've been amazed by what the open source community has created. Not only the technology with Kubernetes and the ecosystem of other projects, but also the culture of open source. We have taken what was a potentially limited game to a positive sum game, and now we have the opportunity to do that again in AI.

This panel discussion features engineers and architects from AWS and Mia-Platform building AI applications for gaming and developer experience. They will share their experiences, the latest trends, and where the community can build together to truly make AI for everyone.

Imagine the inevitable has already happened—you’ve had a security breach—and you’re now dealing with the aftermath. Organisations must act fast to ensure business returns to operations quickly while also figuring out how to prevent similar incidents in the future. By adopting new use cases, engineering teams are simultaneously accelerating the deployment of sensitive data across multi-cloud architectures and tapping into new risk factors.

In this talk, we will use the “Data Security Bang” analogy and learnings from resilience engineering to answer questions such as: How could we do more left of bang (prevention) to help with the speed of right of bang (remediation)? The audience will be guided through a set of example scenarios in a 90s-style game, using Kanister, OPA, and Prometheus, in which they can make decisions on data security to guide the way towards a more robust infrastructure.

Open Source 2.0: Evolving Global Governance in an AI-Driven World : Sam Johnston, Technologist, Entrepreneur, and Open Source advocate
Wednesday February 5, 2025 4:35pm - 5:00pm GMT
Grand Hall 2
Software is eating the world, and AI is eating software, transforming the way we build and use technology. Open Source has been at the heart of this transformation, ensuring openness and enabling innovation for the past 25 years. However, modern systems increasingly depend on non-code components such as datasets, models, and APIs—creating challenges to completeness that the Open Source must now address.

This session will outline Open Source 2.0: a vision for evolving to global governance and refining—not redefining—the Open Source Definition to ensure that modern systems remain open. We'll discuss how achieving clear community consensus, similar to a constitutional amendment, could ensure that any updates to the definition don't change its meaning for existing systems and avoid the fragmentation of new and conflicting definitions.

By addressing these challenges, Open Source can fully preserve the four essential freedoms of Free Software and thrive in a world shaped by services (cloud) and data (AI).

The OpenTelemetry (OTel) Operator is a great tool that helps make your life a little easier by managing OTel for you in your Kubernetes cluster, by:
Managing the deployment of the OpenTelemetry Collector
Managing the configuration of a fleet of OpenTelemetry Collectors via OpAMP integration
Injecting and configuring auto-instrumentation into your pods

But what happens when THINGS. DON’T. WORK??

In this talk, Adriana and Reese will cover:
* An overview of the OTel Operator
* Common installation issues
* Common auto-instrumentation issues
* Common OTel Collector deployment issues
* …and how to tackle them all

Attendees will walk away from this session with a better understanding of how they can leverage the Operator, and be empowered to use it with confidence.

Unifying Security Tools with OCSF and 60 lines of code : Spyros Gasteratos, OWASP, Security Engineer & Architect and Andrea Medda, Smithy-Security, Founding Engineer
Wednesday February 5, 2025 4:35pm - 5:00pm GMT
Hardwick Hub
In today’s world, security without tool and information harmonization is impossible.

Sadly and understandably, most security projects excel at doing one thing very well, however this is insufficient for most projects and organizations who need a combination of tooling in order to efficiently implement a cybersecurity strategy.

This is why we built and open-sourced Smithy.

Smithy is a framework/SDK and an optional execution engine that allows practitioners to orchestrate any security tool and translate its information to the popular security results standard OCSF. Translating outputs to OCSF format is not an easy process as the standard can be loose in some parts.

In this talk we will walk the audience through our context, why we built Smithy, how the SDK works and our design decisions. We’ll also talk about how we leveraged protobuf to extend the OCSF format and accelerate our development thanks to its strong types, code generation capabilities and built in versioning.

Further we will show participants what are the supported components, how to create a sample component and of course pitfalls, tips and tricks.

At the end of the talk, participants will be able to orchestrate any security tool that provides an api or some sort of way to gather its results into any cybersecurity programme, for free.
