Event Description
Spirits, Ski & Java
from Jan 12th to 16th, 2018
jSpirit is a new Java unconference in the Bavarian alps. Starting in Winter 2018, we’re down for Spirits, Ski & JAVA. How does that sound do you?
Spirits
jSpirit is the first Java (un)conference ever being held in a distillery (at least to our knowledge). And it’s not just any distillery – it’s Europe’s most modern distillery: Lantenhammer Erlebnisdestillerie Hausham!
By the way: we are renting the entire distillery: lunch will be served in the main storage depot between all the whisky, gin, rum and schnapps barrels. And we can hold sessions everywhere, even right by the stills!

By Sergio De SimonePresentation: Transforming Primary Care: A Case Study in Evolving From Start-Up To Scale-Up
Leander Vanderbijl explains how Kry navigated its scale-up phase to fix a complex, highly dependent "spiderweb" architecture. He shares the journey of applying Domain-Driven Design principles to group functionality and refactor existing services in situ, without stopping development. Key takeaways include moving from product-centric to functionality-centric design and using the FHIR model.
