Securing AI at the Edge: Privacy Workshop with Kubernetes
Workshop Room2Friday 22.Nov / 11:05
THEME: AI
Artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly pervasive in our lives, driving the need for decentralized processing at the edge. However, this convergence of AI and edge computing poses significant challenges, particularly in privacy and security.
This workshop delves into the crucial intersection of AI deployment at the edge and the imperative need for privacy-centric approaches. Through hands-on exercises and demonstrations, participants will explore how Kubernetes, a robust container orchestration platform, can facilitate the seamless deployment and maintenance of AI models, including large language models (LLMs), at the edge.

Building LLM-Powered Applications with Quarkus and Langchain4j
Workshop Room2Friday 22.Nov / 15:45
THEME: AI
LLMs are poised to play an important role in our daily lives and as such, place an increasingly large burden on developers to integrate them into the software they build. In this session we will demonstrate how easy it is to create AI powered applications using the combination of Quarkus and Langchain4j.

WebAR Unleashed: Building Your First AR Experience on the Web
Workshop Room1Saturday 23.Nov / 11:15
THEME: XR:AR/VR/MR, SW Craftmanship
Come to our workshop to discover our preferred stack for implementing AR directly on the web. No, we're not talking about diving into the complexities of low-level programming. Our approach is streamlined for practical use, proving its worth in the right scenarios with seamless integration into existing websites.
Join us for a hands-on session where we'll guide you through setting up your first web-based AR experience in less than an hour. This workshop is perfect for developers and creators looking to enrich their websites with AR without the barriers of app stores and downloads. Don't miss this opportunity to elevate your digital content with easily accessible, engaging web AR.

Liberate your data using Redis Stream and Go
Workshop Room2Saturday 23.Nov / 12:05
THEME: SW Craftsmanship
For real-time data stream processing, Redis (since Redis 5) has introduced a new data structure, called `Redis Streams`, where you can do a lot more than what was possible with Pub/Sub, Lists or Sorted Sets. The best part of Redis Streams is that it’s built into Redis, so there are no extra steps to deploy or manage.
With `Redis Streams` and Golang, we can collect large volumes of data arriving at high velocity, communicate between producers and consumers asynchronously, manage our consumption of data even when producers and consumers don’t operate at the same rate and finally use the main memory efficiently.

Embracing Chaos: Harnessing the Power of Chaos Testing for Resilient Systems
Workshop Room2Saturday 23.Nov / 14:30
THEME: SW Craftsmanship
Testing is essential to ensure that your software application performs as expected. No doubt about it. But even if your application runs smoothly in a testing environment, unexpected incidents can occur in production, such as a crashed database or a lost connection to a third-party service.
To ensure your application can handle such incidents and minimize their impact, you need to incorporate chaos testing into your delivery process.In this workshop, we will start with a brief introduction to k6 for backend performance testing and we’ll explore how to implement chaos testing using k6 for two backend services, to help you ensure the resilience of your application.

Spatial AI & A Future Beyond the Screen
Workshop Room2Saturday 23.Nov / 15:35
THEME: XR:AR/VR/MR, AI, SW Craftmanship
Large language models are typically constrained within singular interfaces like chat apps, but in this workshop you’ll learn to create rich coordinated experiences across multiple applications and the physical world (smart home cameras, door locks, APIs etc.).
You will be using a new application by Spatial Pixel called Funkify, which enables you to author and test LLM function calls easily. Using OpenAI’s API, you will build your own function calls, which will include external API calls to a physical smart plug, weather API, MapBox API, and others, so you can develop tangible interactive experiences at different scales. You will then export your function declarations from Funkify into your own code. For example, we will trigger lights based on computer vision results or prompt for driving and cycling distances.
