\"\"<\/a>Last week at the ownCloud conference was a very busy week, full of warm experiences, stainless software, outgoing people \u2013 a Conference full of ownCloud. Over 100 people<\/strong> met at the TH Georg-Simon-Ohm in Nuremberg to discuss and explore ownCloud.<\/p>\n

Many people who work with different facets of ownCloud, showed their accomplishments, and all of the participants learned a lot about the other, more uncommon parts of the ownCloud universe.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>What did we learn?<\/h3>\n

While many interesting discussions evolved at the coffee machine, the highlights surely were the talks.<\/p>\n

In total we had more than 40 talks and workshops throughout the conference. Here are just a few examples:<\/p>\n

J\u00f6rn Dreyer<\/a> talked about OAuth2<\/strong>, and how to implement it for Shibboleth users, and Thomas M\u00fcller<\/a> talked about how to use ownCloud with object store<\/strong>. Felix B\u00f6hm<\/a>\u00a0organized a session about monitoring ownCloud\u2019s performance over night, where many people participated. Prof. Dr. Dirk Riehle<\/strong> gave a talk on\u00a0Licenses, open source software, and the software supply chain and the depths of copyleft.<\/p>\n

Markus Feilner gave a talk on open Source Enterprise Leadership.<\/p>\n

Giuseppe Lo Presti from CERN, which uses ownCloud for years, demonstrated the future of collaborative editing in their CERNBox, one of the biggest storages worldwide<\/strong>. They also collaborate with SWITCH<\/strong>, \u00a0who sent Greg Vernon to talk about improving the performance with MariaDB with ownCloud.<\/p>\n

There were dozens of more talks and and just too many to mention them all.<\/p>\n

We made recordings of all of the talks, make sure to follow us on twitter<\/a>\u00a0and\/or youtube<\/a> to get the Videos and Slides!<\/h4>\n

Work hard, party hard<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

On Friday night we explored the Nuremberg nightlife, and celebrated the Conference with an incredible night at the Harlem Bar<\/a> in the Nuremberg city (and wherever we have been afterwards^^).<\/p>\n

I don\u2019t want to say too much. But if you think, Nerds can\u2019t party \u2013 just look at those photos<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

Cloud Camp \u2013 the place to be creative<\/h2>\n

On Saturday, we switched to open mind mode and got a bit creative. We sat together and had some spontaneous sessions; for example, how one could get the ownCloud client to use a virtual file system<\/strong>, what could be done with the ownCloud workflows app<\/strong>, and a talk about leadership and depression, which was absurdly funny in a very touching way:<\/p>\n

\n

The Talk of @dtraub<\/a> at #oCCon17<\/a> was truly inspiring! Thank you. You touched my heart!<\/p>\n
