Hacking all the things – VSHN HackDay #2

On October 21 and 22 2021, the second VSHN internal HackDay took place. Like the first edition, it was a hugely successful event.

The VSHN HackDay is open to all VSHNeers who are interested to break out of the daily business and work on cool and fun stuff.

We again decided that topics should be split into work groups consisting of 1-2 people. The topics were collected beforehand in our forum and VSHNeers could either join a topic or bring in their own ideas.

We agreed on having this HackDay again via Mibo which was also a lot of fun.

HackDay topics

We had an awesome choice of interesting topics ranging from “A better way to deal with limits of vendor-provided cluster monitoring”, “Automatically document Commodore hierarchy content”, APPUiO.cloud self-sign-up prototype, Automate Odoo overtime and more.

The winner

The winner of HackDay #2 was “Engineering disk encryption management at large scale”.

Congrats to Simon and David for getting the most votes and winning the prize of CHF 500.00 to spend in Swibeco and of course glory and honor 🎉.

The feedback was also very positive and we are all already looking forward to our next VSHN HackDay!
