**💡 Session 1: From Build to Telemetry — Bedrock Agents with Strands SDK**
**Speaker:** ***Jaya Ganesh K***\*, Application Developer, Genesys\*
In this action-packed session, Jaya Ganesh will take us from theory to production by showcasing a **production-ready agent** built using **Amazon Bedrock AgentCore** and the **Strands Agents SDK**.
You’ll see firsthand how to enable **Memory**, **Code Interpreter**, and **Guardrails**, and how to integrate **OpenTelemetry instrumentation** for visibility.
The session goes beyond basics — learn to **track agent runs**, **monitor tool invocations**, and **visualize traces and metrics** using **Langfuse** and **Honeycomb** via **OTLP exporter**.
Walk away knowing how to **observe, debug, and optimize** your agents for reliability in production.
If you’re building with **Amazon Bedrock**, **LangChain**, or **Strands SDK**, this session is a must-attend!

**🔐 Session 2: TDE Inside Out — Protecting SQL Server Data at Rest on AWS**
**Speaker:** ***Naveen Kumar***\*, Senior DevOps Engineer, o9 Solutions Inc.\*
Data protection continues to be a core challenge in cloud modernization, and **Transparent Data Encryption (TDE)** provides one of the most effective methods to secure data at rest.
In this deep-dive session, Naveen will unpack **how TDE works under the hood**, covering its architecture, key hierarchy, and integration within **SQL Server**.
Discover how **AWS simplifies encryption** with **Amazon RDS for SQL Server** and **AWS KMS**, and learn how to configure TDE for **self-managed SQL on EC2**.
Expect **demos, walkthroughs**, and **real-world gotchas** from production deployments.
Whether you’re a **DBA, DevOps engineer, or cloud architect**, you’ll gain **actionable best practices** for ensuring compliance and security without sacrificing performance.

**🤖 Session 3: AI-DLC with AWS Kiro (Agentic IDE)**
**Speaker:** *Raji Krishnamoorthy, AI Architect, Tata Consultancy Services*
Modern AI engineering goes beyond prompts — it demands **discipline, structure, and production-readiness**.
In this session, Raji introduces **AWS Kiro**, an **Agentic IDE** that helps developers implement the **AI-DLC (AI-Driven Development Life Cycle)** — reimagining how intelligent systems are built and deployed.
Through a live walkthrough, Raji will show how **Specs drive code generation**, **Steering enforces standards**, **Hooks run validation checks**, and **MCP (Model Context Protocol)** brings context awareness right inside the IDE.
You’ll learn how to transform **prompt-based experimentation** into **production-grade AI pipelines** with automation and guardrails.
This session bridges **GenAI tooling**, **DevOps automation**, and **AI observability**, giving you a blueprint for **structured, scalable, and fast GenAI workflows**.
