## Description
Please note that all presentations will be in English! Registrations: 5:30 PM - 6:15 PM (food & drinks are taken care of) Presentations: From 6:15 PM onwards AI is everywhere - but what does it actually mean in practice? Join Will Martin, AI Evangelist, for a clear, practical walkthrough of modern AI - based on his upcoming book AI for Dummies - and how it fits into your data stack and lakehouse. 🚀 In this session: What Agentic AI really is (and how it differs from LLMs) How LLMs work under the hood (tokens, embeddings, context) When to use fine-tuning, RAG, or prompt engineering How MCP connects AI to your data, APIs, and lakehouse Key benefits, risks, and real-world considerations Cut through the hype and understand how AI actually works - and how to use it. Next up: Gilles Philippart Software Practice Lead at Confluent, Gilles will explore the realities of streaming data into Apache Iceberg and what it takes to build reliable, production-ready data pipelines. 🚀 In this session: The key challenges of streaming ingestion into Iceberg tables Handling schema evolution, upserts, and deletes Avoiding small file problems and commit contention Comparing Kafka Connect, Flink's Iceberg sink, and Confluent Tableflow Practical guidance on choosing the right approach for your architecture Expect a hands-on, real-world perspective on streaming data into Iceberg, with insights into the trade-offs and operational considerations behind today's most common ingestion patterns. About Gilles: A seasoned technology leader with over 20 years of experience, Gilles specializes in microservices and event-driven architecture. He works closely with engineering and product teams to design scalable, high-impact systems that enable faster delivery, stronger alignment, and better data accessibility. And last but not least: Alex Merced Head of DevRel and author at O’Reilly, Alex will walk you through key ideas from his latest book on Agentic Analytics- and how to build data platforms that actually work for AI. 🔍 What to expect: Why data silos break AI agents How the lakehouse, federation, and semantic layer fit together The role of Apache Iceberg, open catalogs, and modern architectures Why agents need context, not just data A practical roadmap toward autonomous, AI-driven analytics Expect a sharp, architecture-focused session connecting modern data platforms with the future of AI.
