To see all meetups in this group: https://www.meetup.com/pro/ibm-community/
This is an IBM sponsored Meetup group geared towards developers, data scientists, data engineers, and ALL Big Data, Cloud and AI enthusiasts. Our meetups provide an opportunity to work hands on with the solutions and tools in our Big Data portfolio and to interact and share knowledge with experts at IBM and in our extended community.Our Meetups typically include a 45-60 minute presentation that serves as an introduction and overview for a specific Data or Cognitive topic, as well as other topics that the community is interested in. It is followed by a possible demonstration or networking with fellow developers to collaborate on applying your data skills. Depending upon the location, we can provide a cloud environment with the technologies needed, that you can use from your laptop at NO cost to you. Our meetups are FREE.
Meetup topics include (but are not limited to):
- Cognitive Solutions
- Artificial Intelligence
- Data Science
- Machine Learning
- Cloud Technologies
- Internet of Things (IoT)
- Data Visualization
- Java development
- Open Source Technologies: Apache Spark, Apache Hadoop, Python, R and others
- Data-centric Application Development
- Open Source Hadoop, SQL on Hadoop, R on Hadoop, Integration, Governance, ...
- Real Time Analytics & Stream Computing
- Text Analytics
- Relational and NOSQL Databases
- Predictive/Prescriptive Analytics
- Deep dives into the technologies that makes big data processing possible
Join us today to learn more about what is possible with software development and topics important to your community.

Generative Computing: Building Predictable Auditable AI with Mellea
Location not specified yetTo attend this one hour masterclass: You must register here
https://partiful.com/e/3WdKVdPlKG4V9vvsgNBaOnce registered you will discover the location in NYC. Arrive at noon on June 1 for 12:30pm start.
This is an in-person event only. Space is limited.Generative Computing Masterclass : Building Predicable Auditable AI with Mellea
In this masterclass, we’ll introduce Mellea, an open‑source framework that treats large language models, not as chat partners, but as programmable components inside real applications. You’ll see how AI behavior can be broken into clear, composable steps using the Instruct–Validate–Repair pattern, with structured outputs andg rounded retrieval built in. The payoff: predictable, auditable, and reproducible AI. Combined with smaller open‑weight models like IBM’s Granite models, developers
are seeing performant, trustworthy results at a fraction of the cost.We’ll close the session with a real‑world case study that turns a stack of construction PDFs into a fully cited cost estimate and report.
This event is on a first come, first served basis.2 attendees
