Join us in New York City for an evening of forward-thinking engineering and applied infrastructure innovation. At this meetup, you’ll hear from leading voices in the analytics and distributed database space on such topics as:

* How ClickHouse® and Apache Iceberg are enabling sub-second analytics over 100+ petabytes of data through stateless swarm clusters.
* How scalable, persistent memory architectures—powered by TiDB—are reshaping what’s possible in AI systems that think beyond the prompt.

From streaming analytics to memory-enabled agents, this meetup is ideal for engineers, architects, and builders pushing the boundaries of data performance, intelligence, and design.

## Program:

**5:30 – 6:00 PM:** Check-in & Networking

**6:00 – 6:30 PM**: Delivering Real-time Analytics for the Next Decade with ClickHouse® and Apache Iceberg (Robert Hodges, CEO, Altinity)

ClickHouse® is famous for real-time response, cost-efficiency, and flexible Apache 2.0 licensing. In the first half of this talk, we’ll show how ClickHouse® implements sub-second analytics with columnar storage, vectorized query, and compression on datasets running to hundreds of terabytes. We’ll then pivot and discuss how Altinity is adapting open source ClickHouse® to deliver economical, real-time response over 100 Petabytes of data or more.

**6:30 – 7:00 PM**: Thinking Beyond the Prompt: Why Context is Everything (Brian Walters, Head of Solutions Engineering, PingCAP\*\*)\*\*

Most AI systems today operate in stateless environments, relying on limited prompt windows to infer context. But what happens when context isn’t just a feature, it’s the lifeblood? In this talk, Brian Walters explores the design and implementation of scalable, long-term memory for AI systems using TiDB. Drawing from real-world architectures and use cases, he walks through how TiDB’s hybrid transactional and analytical engine enables persistent memory that is queryable, versioned, and multi-modal.

**7:00 – 7:30 PM**: Building fast is easy. Building the right thing fast? That’s the real edge. (Melissa Yacoub, Head of Product, OBODO\*\*)\*\*

Anyone can build fast. Tools, talent, and tech make shipping easier than ever. But speed alone is a blunt instrument—without precision, it just gets you to the wrong destination faster.

This talk is about what truly sets exceptional teams apart: the ability to combine speed with certainty. We’ll explore how we embed rapid validation, lean research, and focused experimentation into your delivery cycles—so you’re not just moving quickly, but confidently.

Because the winners in today’s product landscape aren’t the fastest builders. They’re the fastest learners.

**7:30 – 8:00 PM**: Closing & Open Networking

The future of data architecture is already here: distributed, cloud-native, and AI-ready. Is your organization equipped to meet the moment?

Join leading data experts **Sanjeev Mohan**, **Dave Burgess**, and **Mark Donsky** for a live panel discussion on why distributed SQL has become a critical building block for modern data platforms—and what that means for companies struggling with the limits of traditional databases, sharding complexity, and patchwork scalability.

The panel will unpack the macro trends accelerating adoption of distributed SQL, including the surge in data-intensive applications, demand for real-time analytics, elastic scalability, cost pressure, and the rise of AI workloads.

You’ll hear firsthand how enterprises and SaaS innovators are overcoming the limitations of legacy databases, simplifying operations, and unlocking new AI-driven capabilities with distributed SQL solutions like TiDB.

You’ll gain practical perspectives on:

* **The evolution of distributed databases:** Why is now the tipping point for distributed SQL?
* **Business drivers:** Scale, performance, cost efficiency, compliance, and AI-readiness.
* **Architectural innovations:** How technologies like TiDB solve challenges of multi-region deployments, always-on availability, and mixed workload processing.
* **Real-world use cases:** From e-commerce scalability to powering retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), agentic memory, and semantic search for AI applications.
* **Future trends:** The role of distributed SQL in shaping cloud-native and AI-powered data strategies.

Whether you’re a CTO, architect, or data engineering leader, this discussion will equip you with the knowledge to assess how distributed SQL fits into your organization’s modernization journey. Register now to secure your spot!
