**_____________________________________**
**🎤 Session Details: The Data Engine Behind AI: Powering Language Models at Scale**
Behind every AI breakthrough is a mountain of data — and the real challenge is moving, shaping, and querying it fast enough to keep up. In this session, Alexey will take a deep dive into how large language models are trained, fine-tuned, and served, with a focus on the data pipelines and architectures that make it all work. You’ll see live demos of ClickHouse tackling massive AI-scale datasets in real time, along with performance benchmarks that reveal just how far you can push the engine. Expect actionable tips, architectural patterns, and a few ClickHouse tricks that data engineers, architects, and AI enthusiasts can bring straight into their own projects.
**Speaker: Alexey Milovidov, Co-Founder & CTO of ClickHouse**
Alexey Milovidov is the Co-founder and CTO of ClickHouse, Inc., with 16 years of experience in data-intensive applications. He began developing ClickHouse in 2009 and released it as open source in 2016. Before ClickHouse, Alexey developed the data processing engine for the world's second-largest web analytics system. In 2021, Alexey came together with two co-founders to build ClickHouse and is focused daily on expanding its capabilities and optimizing performance. His expertise lies in data processing algorithms and high-performance technologies, driving his passion for data and innovation in the field. Ask him about speed, or CI, go on... we dare you!
**🎤 Session Details: Speed as a Feature: Markethac's Journey from BigQuery to ClickHouse**
Every e-commerce insight starts with a question — but when your data grows faster than your queries can run, the answers stop coming in time. In this session, Adhitya will walk through how Markethac migrated its analytics stack from BigQuery to ClickHouse to meet the real-time demands of Indonesian e-commerce intelligence at scale. You'll get a behind-the-scenes look at the architecture decisions, ingestion pipeline design, and optimizations that made the migration work — along with live demo showing the performance gap between the two engines on real marketplace data. If you're sitting on a growing analytical workload and wondering whether your current warehouse can keep up — this one's for you.
**Speaker: Adhitya Cahyadi, Business Director @ Markethac**
Adhitya Cahyadi is the Business Director and Chief of Product at Markethac, an e-commerce intelligence platform built for the Indonesian and Southeast Asian market. He joined Markethac in 2022 growing the business by leading the product, data engineering, and analytics teams behind Markethac's core offering and innovations. Started in data analytics field in his previous role, Adhitya is passionate on turning raw marketplace data into structured, AI-powered workflows that help enterprises make faster, more confident decisions.
**🎤 Session Details: Speed at Scale: How ASTRO Powers Quick-Commerce with ClickHouse**
ASTRO is a 24/7 quick-commerce platform offering over 15,000+ selected products, delivering orders within minutes to help customers meet their everyday needs. In this session, ASTRO shares its journey using ClickHouse to power real-time analytics at scale, covering how long the team has been using ClickHouse, the key use cases implemented, and how their data platform evolved to support quick commerce. The talk will highlight measurable improvements in query performance, scalability, and operational efficiency, as well as the impact on faster, data-driven decision-making. ASTRO will also discuss the challenges encountered—from handling high data volumes to optimizing performance—and how ClickHouse helped overcome these bottlenecks, enabling reliable, real-time visibility into operations.

Bitcoin Indonesia Community Meetup Bintaro 25 April 2026
👋 **Hei, kamu yang percaya hal besar selalu dimulai dari obrolan kecil...**
Nggak ada komunitas yang langsung besar dan kuat. Semuanya mulai dari beberapa orang yang mau duduk bareng, ngobrol jujur, dan sepakat untuk saling jaga. Persis kayak yang kita mulai di sini. ☕
Dan kalau fondasinya udah bener dari awal, krisis sebesar apapun nggak akan mudah ngegoyahin. 🪨
Di meetup kali ini, kita akan ngobrol santai tentang bagaimana komunitas bisa menjadi fondasi penting dalam membangun ekosistem Bitcoin yang kuat dan tahan krisis. Karena di balik teknologi yang hebat, selalu ada orang-orang yang saling belajar, saling berbagi perspektif, dan saling menguatkan.
Lewat diskusi ringan di meja kopi, kita bakal membahas bagaimana komunitas bisa menjadi ruang untuk bertukar ide, memperluas wawasan, dan menjaga semangat kolaborasi di tengah situasi ekonomi yang sering berubah. Dari percakapan kecil, sering kali muncul pemahaman besar. 💡
Jadi kalau kamu ingin ngobrol, bertukar pikiran, atau sekadar mendengar sudut pandang baru tentang Bitcoin dan komunitasnya, tempat ini terbuka buat kamu.
🧡 Karena kadang perjalanan memahami Bitcoin jadi lebih bermakna ketika dijalani bersama.
Sampai jumpa di meetup!
📌 Info Penting:🔸 **Tiket GRATIS**! Tapi peserta diwajibkan membeli makan/minum sendiri selama acara🔸 Tidak ada promosi **altcoin**, **NFT**, atau **token kripto** lainnya🔸 Hanya membahas **Bitcoin** — teknologi, nilai, dan dampaknya bagi dunia

Join us for a fun Dinner & a Movie event as we get together to see MICHAEL + Dinner at CAP City!

Highlighting both his life off-stage and some of the most iconic performances from his early solo career, the film gives audiences a front-row seat to Michael Jackson as never before. Jaafar Jackson (Michael Jackson’s nephew) stars in the title role alongside Nia Long, Laura Harrier, Juliano Krue Valdi, Miles Teller and Colman Domingo.

DINNER PLAN: Dinner immediately following the movie (around 6pm) at nearby CAP City Fine Diner! Seating is limited for the dinner portion of this event, so separate RSVP required. If you plan to join for Dinner AND the movie, please be sure to RSVP in both places.
CAP CITY FINE DINER: This upscale diner from Cameron Mitchell is known its “retro-cool” atmosphere, modern twists on classic comfort food and their “showstopper” desserts! The menu reimagines nostalgic dishes like meatloaf, beef stroganoff, and pot roast with gourmet twists. The menu also offers vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options with lots of apps, cocktails, salads, sandwiches, burgers (including a black bean veggie burger), the most welcome return of their Veggie Plate (with Hummus) and more. Desserts include their 24K Carrot Cake, Coconut Cake and Chocolate Covered Peanut Butter Pie.
