OpenSourcerers 2022 is a wrap! It was packed with interesting articles covering a wide range of topics. There are 52 articles available covering high level topics down to the dirty technical details of using Red Hat’s products and other OpenSource technologies.

In May this year, my colleague Götz Rieger came across a poster in Berlin which piqued our interest: Open source bread? Free (libre) seeds? What is this all about? With German Thanksgiving on Oct. 2nd we want to take the opportunity to learn more about this initiative. To this end, we conducted an email interview […]

The core idea of GitOps is to treat “everything” as code. What does it mean? You will need to describe the desired state of your system declaratively as code, […]
If 42 is the answer to all your OpenSource questions …..
This blog post will discuss why Quantum Computing is a natural step to evolve our computing capabilities. I will give a short overview of the core principles and differences to classical computing and how anyone with interest is able to access quantum computers — using Open Source software. Why do we care about quantum computing? […]
