This document discusses water issues and management in India. It notes that while India has large total water resources, availability and access are uneven both temporally and spatially. Population growth and increasing demand from agriculture, industry and domestic sectors are exacerbating water stress. Groundwater overexploitation is a major problem, with over 30 million wells. The document calls for more sustainable and equitable water management based on principles of social and environmental responsibility. It proposes a framework where industries view themselves as part of the broader water ecosystem and engage in sustainable practices both within and outside their facilities.
Ecosan ,rainwater harvesting,water in Rural Karnataka,Izenrain man
Both access to water and the access to sanitation remains a challenge to a majority of househols in rural Karnataka, India With groundwater as a major source for over 90 % of the habitations primarily through deep borew-wells and the need for scarce energy to pump this water to cisterns , intermittent water supply is the order of the day The only way households can access water is by storing it STORAGE DETERMINES ACCESS. Rinwater harvesting is one way to augment supply especially in the rainy season The rainwater tank also doubles up as a storage system in the non -rainy season .
Sanitation is a big challenge since all of it is water borne and requires water for ablution purpose too. One way to overcome that is by using a source separating Ecosan system which requires very little water and also converts urine as a fertilizer.

Cities are usually viewed as sinks; pulling in water resources for domestic and industrial needs. But they can also be seen as sponges as they release water. Usually , however, this is of decreased quality. But if we can make better use of this contaminated water, we can help avert resource crises in the future.

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.

PHP Frameworks: I want to break free (IPC Berlin 2024)Ralf Eggert
In this presentation, we examine the challenges and limitations of relying too heavily on PHP frameworks in web development. We discuss the history of PHP and its frameworks to understand how this dependence has evolved. The focus will be on providing concrete tips and strategies to reduce reliance on these frameworks, based on real-world examples and practical considerations. The goal is to equip developers with the skills and knowledge to create more flexible and future-proof web applications. We'll explore the importance of maintaining autonomy in a rapidly changing tech landscape and how to make informed decisions in PHP development.
This talk is aimed at encouraging a more independent approach to using PHP frameworks, moving towards a more flexible and future-proof approach to PHP development.
Let's dive deeper into the world of ODC! Ricardo Alves (OutSystems) will join us to tell all about the new Data Fabric. After that, Sezen de Bruijn (OutSystems) will get into the details on how to best design a sturdy architecture within ODC.

10. The Dublin Principles
• Principle No. 1 - Fresh water is a finite and
vulnerable resource, essential to sustain
life, development and the environment
Since water sustains life, effective management of
water resources demands a holistic approach, linking
social and economic development with protection of
natural ecosystems. Effective management links land
and water uses across the whole of a catchment area
or groundwater aquifer.
11. • Principle No. 2 - Water development and
management should be based on a participatory
approach, involving users, planners and policy-
makers at all levels
The participatory approach involves raising
awareness of the importance of water among policy-
makers and the general public. It means that
decisions are taken at the lowest appropriate
level, with full public consultation and involvement
of users in the planning and implementation of water
projects.
12. • Principle No. 3 - Women play a central part in the
provision, management and safeguarding of water
This pivotal role of women as providers and users of water
and guardians of the living environment has seldom been
reflected in institutional arrangements for the development
and management of water resources. Acceptance and
implementation of this principle requires positive policies to
address women?s specific needs and to equip and empower
women to participate at all levels in water resources
programmes, including decision-making and
implementation, in ways defined by them.
13. • Principle No. 4 - Water has an economic value in all its
competing uses and should be recognized as an economic
good
Within this principle, it is vital to recognize first the basic right
of all human beings to have access to clean water and
sanitation at an affordable price. Past failure to recognize the
economic value of water has led to wasteful and
environmentally damaging uses of the resource. Managing
water as an economic good is an important way of achieving
efficient and equitable use, and of encouraging conservation
and protection of water resources.

25. According to John Briscoe
• 1. The era of large investment in water
infrastructure for storage is over
• 2. The era of groundwater exploitation
26. Groundwater
• India has the single largest exploitation of
groundwater in the world with over 30 million
wells and bore-wells
• 65 % of the net irrigated land gets water from
bore-wells
• 85 % of rural habitations depend on
groundwater
27. The well has been the lifeline of water in India for
centuries
28. A good water harvesting system will revive the dynamic water
table and keep the wells full
34. Indian Context: The “looming” crisis is here
Nation-wide 29% of the blocks are critical, semi-critical or
over-exploited
In some states as high as 75%
35. Emerging Findings: from a world bank study
Developing a Responsive Physical
Framework:
• Local physical and resource use
realities have tremendous variation
across the country
• Hard-Rock aquifers
low storage, low yields, fast
recharge
In Maharashtra, storage 1-5X
annual recharge
• Alluvial aquifers
high storage, high yields, slow
recharge
In eastern UP storage 200-500X
annual recharge
41. Some key issues
• Closed basins , competition between
agriculture and industry.
• Lowest priority in use domestic, agriculture
and then industry.
• Royalty for water tends to be low hence low
payback for water conservation or reuse
• Zero discharge of waste-water in place
42. More key issues
• Groundwater / surface water interface less
understood. Mapping aquifers and managing
aquifers important.
• Many solutions are optimal at a sub-basin
level , the challenge is to build partnerships.
• Rainfall variability will impact both surface and
groundwater availability.
• Limits to growth ? How far can technology find
solutions ?
43. Response
• Water use efficiency
• Rainwater harvesting – storage /recharge
• Wastewater recycling
• Water conservation
• Demand management
• Is this enough ?
