OpenTelemetry and Java agents at Javazone 2025

Last week I had the pleasure of talking at JavaZone. I told the story of how we gained some awesome insights in production by using the OpenTelemetry agents.

A recording below, but it is in Norwegian. Sorry. 🙂

My talk on KTor and HTMX at KotlinConf 2025

In May I had the honour of talking about KTor and HTMX at KotlinConf in Copenhagen. It was based on my previous articles on how to do SSE updates and KTor.

It was my first time speaking outside Norway, and I had great fun. The conference was really well run, and I met a lot of great people from all over Europe.

Highly recommended, and not just mobile development. About half the conference were back-end oriented too.

Here is a recording of my talk: https://youtu.be/AlGWsTXnWsY?si=DENv97CB_B4B6540

JavaZone talk: The Elevator Pitch

So I got my talk accepted for JavaZone this year (Norwegian description and link). Scary and exciting. 🙂

I’ve got lot’s to say but structuring it all is hard, so I’m reading up on an article about presenting that I got from my brother. One of the first things it says to to is define the elevator pitch. So here goes.

Integration is too complex, and it need not be. Make integration an every day thing by adhering to simple and clear principles. Trying to use technology to buy your way out of it will only add complexity and solve very few of your real problems.

I might try to develop other parts of the talk here too. This is just a draft, I’d love any viewpoints. Thanks. 🙂
