Join us for an exciting meetup where we explore how search has evolved beyond traditional TF/IDF into the world of machine learning and models.
Plus, don’t miss our **live demo**—We’ll show how quickly you can get started with search, and make changes on the fly to adapt to different needs.

Please RSVP if you plan on attending. **Registration closes on Tuesday, March 5th, so we can provide a list of names to building security.**

**Date and Time:**
Wednesday, March 6th, from 6:00-8:00 pm EDT
**Location:**
*BasisTech office, 1070 Broadway Somerville, MA 02144-2078*

**Agenda:**

* 6:00 pm: Doors open; say hi, grab a seat, and eat some food.
* 6:15 pm: Real-Time Semantics: Boosting Data Quality & Search with Kafka, Flink & Elasticsearch, by Zachary Hamilton, Senior Solutions Engineer, Confluent
* 6:45 pm: do MORE with stateLESS Elasticsearch, by AJ Meyers, Principal Solutions Architect at Elastic
* 7:15-7:30 pm: Networking & refreshments

**Talk Abstracts:**
How would you build Elasticsearch if it was started in 2024? Decouple compute and storage, outsource the persistence to a blob store like S3, dynamically scale up and down, have the right defaults, and a clear path for developers. This is what we have done!
In this talk, learn how we have redesigned Elasticsearch to do more with a stateless architecture that can run hot queries on cold storage. And see how you can get started with it today.

**About the speaker:**
**AJ Meyers** is a Principal Solutions Architect, helping customers use search to get the most out of their data since 2019. An Ohio native transplanted to the Northeast, AJ has spent over 30 years sifting, sorting, building, using, and advising all things data.
