Your cloud infrastructure shouldn&#8217;t make it harder. Join our Solution Architects, Ivan Pranji\u0107 and Samu, on the Monday before Slush for a practical technical session on how to design and build cloud infrastructure that takes you from MVP to production and beyond, without overengineering, unpredictable costs, or vendor lock-in. We&#8217;ll walk through real-world architecture patterns, common infrastructure mistakes, and practical approaches to building scalable, secure, and sovereign applications. Expect architecture walkthroughs, a live technical demo, and an interactive Q&amp;A.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u200bThis session is especially relevant for startup CTOs, technical co-founders, lead developers, platform engineers, and anyone responsible for building or scaling cloud infrastructure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Agenda<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>1:00\u20131:10 PM:<\/strong> Welcome and introductions<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>1:10\u20131:55 PM:<\/strong> Technical session, part 1<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>1:55\u20132:10 PM:<\/strong> Coffee break<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>2:10\u20133:00 PM:<\/strong> Technical session, part 2<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>3:00\u20133:30 PM:<\/strong> Q&amp;A and networking<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There is time for extended networking and chats, as the venue is booked until 4:00 PM.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During the actual technical session, expect to hear and see:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>\u200bStartup infrastructure challenges &amp; common pitfalls<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u200bFrom MVP to scale: making the right architecture decisions<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u200bLive demo: building and evolving startup infrastructure on UpCloud<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u200bScalability, cost optimization &amp; data sovereignty<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u200bArchitecture clinic \/ open Q&amp;A<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u200bNetworking<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>No Slush ticket required to attend.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Event Info Date: November 16, 2026Time: 1:00-4:00 PM EETLocation: Maria 01, Classroom, Building 2Address: Lapinlahdenkatu 16, 00180 Helsinki Building a startup is hard enough.
