Fractal Cloud
When Compliance Becomes Architecture

When Compliance Becomes Architecture

Introduction

When Compliance Becomes Architecture was a live session on the Cloud and AI Development Act, or CADA. CADA is the EU proposal that turns the word "sovereignty" into three things a buyer can check: where your data sits, who can reach it, and which country's law applies to it. The event read CADA as an engineering question, not a legal one. It was built for anyone who sells software or cloud services to a public sector body, or to a supplier who does.During the session, Fractal Cloud read CADA the way an architect reads a spec: a list of problems, each matched with a working solution. The talk walked through the four-level assurance ladder, the core of CADA. It runs from a self-signed declaration at level one to full EU-only access at level four. The European Commission expects seven public buyers out of ten to stop at that first level. The talk also explained why the pressure behind the law is real: three non-EU providers now control more than 70% of the cloud market in Europe.The session then showed how Fractal Cloud turns this from a yearly project into daily work. Every environment starts from a Blueprint, the definition that deploys the system. Fractal Cloud checks every Live System, the running version of that environment, against its Blueprint on an ongoing basis. An auditor asks for three things: architecture diagrams, change history, and proof of monitoring. On Fractal Cloud, all three arrive as a ready export you review each year, not as a report you rebuild from scratch. The talk closed by pointing out that the same evidence lines up with DORA and NIS2, for teams that answer to more than one regulator. Watch the session on demand →

Cloud Architecture Patterns on Fractal Cloud, From Pattern to Production in Minutes

Cloud Architecture Patterns on Fractal Cloud, From Pattern to Production in Minutes

Cloud Architecture Patterns on Fractal Cloud was a live session on turning familiar patterns into running infrastructure. Every developer and platform engineer has drawn CQRS, the Saga pattern, or an event-driven design on a whiteboard. The event showed what usually stands between that diagram and a production-ready environment: tickets, YAML files, and dependencies wired by hand.During the session, the Fractal Cloud team provisioned these patterns live: CQRS, the Saga pattern, and an event-driven microservices setup, each deployed from a Blueprint, the reusable definition that creates the environment, with governance and security already inside it. The team did not walk through slides showing how a pattern should work. They built each one and showed what came out.The session made the case for both sides of the usual trade-off. Developers get a pattern they can deploy directly, instead of redrawing it from a whiteboard. Operations teams get a pattern that already meets their standards, because the governance sits inside the definition. The event ended with a simple point: teams that start from a governed pattern do not have to solve the same infrastructure problem for every new project.Watch the session on demand →

Webinars
CloudConf 2026

CloudConf 2026

CloudConf Torino 2026 is an Italian conference dedicated to Cloud Computing, Artificial Intelligence, and Agentic AI. The event brings together international speakers, technical sessions, and discussions focused on cloud technologies, automation, security, and modern software development.During the conference, our CTO delivered the session “Intent vs. Execution: The Broken Promise of Platform Engineering”. The talk explored why many modern platforms still struggle to separate architectural intent from infrastructure execution, and what is required to achieve truly portable, governed, and cloud agnostic infrastructure. The session also examined how Platform Engineering can evolve beyond traditional Infrastructure as Code approaches through more consistent and governed infrastructure automation.

Conferences
DevFest Pisa 2026

DevFest Pisa 2026

DevFest Pisa 2026 was the annual conference organized by the Google Developer Groups Pisa community, bringing together developers, engineers, and technology professionals for a full day dedicated to AI, Web, Cloud, and modern software development topics. The 2026 edition also celebrated the 10th anniversary of GDG Pisa and hosted technical sessions, workshops, and community talks focused on innovation and software engineering.During the event, our Tech Evangelist delivered the session “From Zero to One Hundred: Building a Self-Optimizing Infrastructure”.The talk explored the relationship between Platform Engineering and Autonomous Optimization in modern infrastructure management. The session demonstrated how a modern Internal Developer Platform (IDP) can provide standardized and secure infrastructure foundations, while autonomous optimization systems use AI-driven analysis to optimize infrastructure parameters in real time.The presentation also explored topics related to scalability, infrastructure cost optimization, and infrastructure automation.
