Got data? meetup 4: self-hosting LLMs and designing MCP servers

Join us for another evening of technical deep-dives and discussions - this time focused on data engineering and data platform engineering for AI. We’ll explore the tools, protocols, and real-world practices that make these disciplines essential for deploying and scaling modern AI applications

Presentations:

• Jimmy Flatting, Platform Engineer, provides a hands-on look at how you can own the deployment of your AI language models using the open source tools Hugging Face, Open WebUI and Ollama
• Edvard Lindelöf, Data Scientist, shares insights from designing Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers, with real-world examples on how Knowit utilizes them to stay on top in the IT consulting industry

As always, we’ll leave plenty of space for questions and open discussion - whether about deployment pitfalls, AI experiences, Vibesort or your favourite Linux package. Grab a beer, share your thoughts, and connect with others tackling the same challenges.

Optional homework: do you have a data project that you want to brag about or get input on? Bring your laptop and show us!
