Keynote Presentation: Edge AI – Enabling Agile Processes

Combining “artificial intelligence” and “edge” brings a unique set of challenges. Both of these individual solution areas have a broad spectrum of compute and deployment requirements that get even more complex based on the use case, implementation details, and budgets.  And when you combine the two into actual Edge AI, the challenges can seem insurmountable.  A large AI model that runs as desired on a GPU in the cloud may not be feasible for use on a compute-restrained device at the edge. So how do you build a 360-degree strategy for AI at the edge?  Join ML expert Damian Bogunowicz from Neural Magic as he illustrates the power of software-delivered AI to: 

  1. Optimize AI workloads for use everywhere – across edge, private data center, and cloud deployments 
  2. Build faster and more efficient AI solutions on commodity and edge hardware
  3. Deliver flexibility and operational simplicity across all of your business solutions

Keynote Presentation: The Transformative Effects of Real-Time AI: A Vision for the Future with Multi-Model SQL Databases and Large Language Models

In the era of digital transformation, businesses are grappling with an explosion of data types and
volumes. Yet, the promise of data-driven insights by AI remains elusive for many, as data remains
siloed, multiple database technologies complicate the landscape, and high total cost of ownership
(TCO) often outweighs the benefits. Concurrently, the promise of large language models and
generative AI is reshaping our understanding of data analysis and prediction.
In this keynote, we will explore how a modern multi-model database approach addresses today’s
data management challenges head-on:

  • Converging operational and analytical data in any kind of format plus providing business context in vectors provides the foundation for AI-driven real-time insights, no matter which data you need to process and analyze.
  • Why a wide range of data types needs to accessible via standard SQL – from relational, JSON documents, timeseries, geospatial, over full-text search to vector search.
  • We will delve into how this approach can streamline development, reduce TCO, and ultimately, enable businesses to unlock the full potential of their data.
