**Talks:**
**Searching for Similar Music Tracks**
*David Pilato, Developer Advocate - Elastic*
In this talk, we will use the principles of vector search to find pieces of music that are (maybe) similar to others. To do this, we will review the principles of generating embeddings to represent any type of data, whether textual or binary.

**Elasticsearch Query Language — ES\|QL**
*Piotr Przybyl, Developer Advocate - Elastic*
Elasticsearch and Kibana added a brand new query language: ES\|QL — coming with a new endpoint \(_query\) and a simpler syntax\. It lets you refine your results one step at a time and adds new features like data enrichment and processing right in your query\. And you can use it across the Elastic Stack — from the Elasticsearch API to Discover and Alerting in Kibana\. But the biggest change is behind the scenes: Using a new compute engine that was built with performance in mind\.

Join us for a quick overview and a look at syntax and internals.

Thanks to JAKALA for hosting!
