Hello everyone! Join us for an IN PERSON Apache Kafka® x Apache Flink® meetup on Apr 10th from 6:30pm, hosted by Credit Agricole CIB in Singapore! **📍 Venue:** Mapletree Business City Blk 20 West 20 Pasir Panjang Road Singapore, 117439 , Level 13 \*\*\* **🗓 Agenda:** * 18:30pm-19:00pm: Food, Drinks & Networking * 19:00pm-19:30pm: Zabeer Farook, Technical Architect, Credit Agricole CIB * 19:30pm-20:00pm: ​Dominique Ronde, Staff Solution Engineer, Confluent * 20:00pm-20:30pm: Networking \*\*\* **💡 Speaker:** ​Dominique Ronde, Staff Solution Engineer, Confluent **Talk:** Guardians of the Stream: Kafka, Flink, and the Rise of GenAI **Abstract:** In this session we will explore how Kafka and Flink can seamlessly integrate with GenAI to build intelligent systems capable of real-time learning, automation, and decision-making. Discover the next frontier in data streaming and artificial intelligence, where Kafka, Flink, and GenAI take center stage in shaping the future of industries. **Bio:** ​**Dominique Ronde** is a Staff Solution Engineer at Confluent, a pioneer in enterprise event-streaming platforms. With previous roles as a Big Data Architect and Data Scientist at freeyou, SAP, and Allianz, Dominique brings deep expertise in digital transformation, Java, AWS, and Apache Kafka®. Since 2016, he has worked extensively with Apache Flink and currently serves as a subject matter expert in the APAC region. Dominique is a frequent speaker at conferences worldwide, with a recent focus on innovative data use cases in the insurance industry. Outside of work, he enjoys experimenting with Arduino microcontrollers, IoT home devices, and traveling. \-\-\-\-\- **💡 Speaker:** Zabeer Farook, Technical Architect, Credit Agricole CIB **Talk:** Natural Language Analytics in the Lakehouse : Why is it harder than it looks? **Abstract:** AI agents and the Model Context Protocol finally make natural language analytics on your lakehouse technically plausible — any LLM can discover your schema, plan a query strategy, and return results in seconds. But connect an agent directly to your Iceberg stack and something uncomfortable happens: it returns confident, fluent, wrong answers with no signal that anything is amiss. This talk demonstrates exactly why — wrong metric formulas, invented business terms, incorrect join paths — and introduces the architectural layer that fixes it: the unified semantic layer, exposed as an MCP API. A glimpse at what becomes possible when agents call meaning, not just schema. **Bio:** Zabeer is a seasoned Technology Architect with nearly 20 years of experience in enterprise software across FSI and fintech, including retail banking, wealth management, KYC, regulatory reporting, and payment systems. He brings strong expertise in digital transformation, legacy modernization, and data engineering, with hands-on experience in AWS, Kubernetes, Kafka, Flink, Spark, APIs, and DevOps. Actively contributes to the Singapore tech community, co-hosting Kafka meetups and delivering technical talks, with a strong focus on real-time data streaming and event-driven architecture. \*\*\* ***DISCLAIMER*** BY ATTENDING THIS EVENT IN PERSON, you acknowledge that risk includes possible exposure to and illness from infectious diseases including COVID-19, and accept responsibility for this, if it occurs.

Welcome back to our meetup in April. The date is right before the GITEX AI Asia conference held at the Marina Bay Sands Convention Centre. * **06:00 PM** Registration, dinner, networking * **06:30 PM** Talk starts Talk #1: Powering AI Agents/Apps with contextual data from more than just the default vector search Description: Most solutions showcase vector search as the default search mechanism to power AI applications. But it is often not the most effective solution. In this demo, we will showcase different search techniques and hybrid approaches for retrieving contextual data with MongoDB. Talk #2: Real Practical RAG, from Demo to Production - in a 10,000-person organization and an intelligence org Moving from controlled demos to real-world deployment exposed several challenges that are easy to underestimate. In clean demos, our prompts/queries are often well-formed and datasets are neatly curated, and we test the happy paths. But real users behave very differently. We observed clear gaps between how users express intent and how that intent is represented in the embedding space (leads to irrelevant/missed retrievals). This made retrieval design and chunking strategy critical: how documents are split, indexed, and ranked directly impacted whether the system could “understand” a query. Additionally, as the dataset scaled with many similar or overlapping documents, retrieval became noisier - every vector is similar to a lot other vector - making it harder to consistently surface the right information. These challenges highlight that building a production-ready RAG system is not just about ensuring our datasets and RAG method works, but also user's intent and behavior. TBA: We will have a 2nd speaker talking about AI in real use cases in intelligence orgs either in this meetup or the next meetup. More details for the 2nd speaker are still being prepared.

(e.g. BACKPACK) **Note:** * In the event of wet weather, the event will be cancelled. However, if it is just a light drizzle, we may still proceed with caution or head to AU office for Signature Indoor Workout. * If you will be late or unable to make it, please inform me in advance (WA +6597318648) or update your RSVP by 8 p.m. the night before so that I can inform the next person on the waitlist. * We’re capping this at **20 pax per session** so it stays focused and manageable. * Priority will go to 2026 AU trip participants and Elite AU club members. If there are slots left, it will be given to members of the publi.c If you’re on the waitlist, it may not move strictly in order as trip participants are prioritised. We will start on time so come at least 5 minutes earlier! If you’ve done Rumble before, you already know what this is about. If you haven’t — come try once. You’ll either love it or hate me slightly. Both are acceptable. Join us for more adventures at: https://bit.ly/3Rv6XrT

Our monthly PHP meetup. A virtual shindig courtesy of Zoom. Check back here for the details around 6:15 pm

Get ready for a backyard brunch that feels like summer, smells like heaven, and sounds like a whole vibe. We’re turning the backyard into the ultimate brunch playground with music flowing, drinks pouring, and plenty of food. This is the laugh loud, grab seconds, refill your cup kind of brunch. On the menu, we’re going all in. Fluffy scrambled eggs, crispy bacon, juicy sausage, golden pancakes and waffles hot off the griddle. Fresh bakes like warm cinnamon rolls and sweet coffee cakes that hit just right. And that’s just the start. We’ll have cocktails mixed and ready, juices chilled, sodas on ice, and plenty more to keep the energy up. Think mimosas, good conversation, music in the background, and that perfect mix of sunshine and shade. It’s about warm vibes, real connections, and food that makes you close your eyes on the first bite. Pull up hungry, bring your best stories, and get ready for a brunch that turns into a whole experience.

Pay attention! We’re delaying a week for those of you who may be on Spring break and/or celebrating the holiday. Ok, no pancakes, but waffles-a-plenty. Join the local UX and Digital Design community for a casual monthly breakfast. Look for us upstairs!

Columbus Code & Coffee is an inclusive, informal co-working session. People of all skill levels attend, and we love it that way.

The Humanist Monthly Program is our longest running event and still a community favorite. In the old days it used to be called "Going to HCCO" and we still like to think of it as our flagship event. We will be hearing from Becca Powell, Director of Advocacy and Outreach at Unchained At Last, an organization whose mission is dedication to ending forced and child marriage in the United States through direct services and systems change. Unchained At Last's mission clearly meshes and addresses several of our Humanist Ten Commitments. Becca will educate us about an issue many of us may not be familiar with--but should be. Food and drinks will be provided at the event. Feel free to show up a little bit early to hang out and talk. Going forward our meetings will be hybrid. You can meet us in-person or attend online Join Zoom Meeting [https://us02web.zoom.us/j/87836564953?pwd=4Mi57ElZkDIFlb1fnlNwOJ0NiOK4tP.1](https://us02web.zoom.us/j/87836564953?pwd=4Mi57ElZkDIFlb1fnlNwOJ0NiOK4tP.1) Meeting ID: 878 3656 4953 Passcode: 760812 One tap mobile +19292056099,,87836564953#,,,,\*760812# US (New York) +13017158592,,87836564953#,,,,\*760812# US (Washington DC) The formal presentation will start at noon
