**Abstract**

**Async Python for Data Science: Speeding Up IO - Bound Workflows**
Most Python scripts in data science are synchronous — fetching one
record at a time, waiting for APIs, or slowly scraping websites. In this talk, we’ll introduce Python’s asyncio ecosystem and show how it transforms IO - heavy data workflows. You'll see how httpx , aiofiles , and async constructs speed up tasks like web scraping and batch API calls. We’ll compare async vs threading, walk through a real - world case study, and wrap with performance benchmarks that demonstrate async's value.
Keywords: p ython 3.x , AsyncIO, Web Scraping, API, Concurrency, Performance, Optimization

**How to create a customized running plan using Python, Elasticsearch, and Agno**
When working out, deciding what workout to do next to achieve a specific goal can be challenging. This talk will guide you through creating a four-week workout plan as a Notion page with to-do list items tailored to your workout history, helping you run a faster 5K

**Meet our speakers:**

Elastic and Confluent are happy to invite you to an exciting meetup in Boston!

**Agenda:**

* 5:30 pm: Doors open
* 5:45 pm: Visualizing video game telemetry without breaking the bank, by Chase Horvath (Staff Solutions Engineer at Confluent)
* 6:10 pm: Q&A with Chase
* 6:20 pm: ODSC presentation, by Sheamus McGovern (Founder of ODSC, Head of AI and VP - Cortical Ventures)
* 6:45 pm: Q&A with Sheamus
* 6:50 pm: Automating Synthetic Monitoring with Warp, Gemini & MCP, by Jessica Garson (Sr. Developer Advocate at Elastic)
* 7:20 pm: Q&A with Jessica
* 7:30 pm: Event wrap-up and networking

**Abstracts:**

**Visualizing video game telemetry without breaking the bank**

Games generate massive data streams, and many game studios rely on Kafka to ingest it. Cost is a limiting factor on the granularity of data they can collect, but more data leads to better decision making and a better player experience. Replacing traditional kafka with Confluent Freight clusters will reduce the cost of telemetry ingestion and still allow Studios to use downstream tools, like Elastic Cloud, to work with the data in near real time. Attendees will learn about the integration of Elastic Cloud and Confluent Freight, as well as gain some insights into what makes their favorite games come to life.

**MCP: The Missing Piece in AI Agent Workflows**

The AI landscape is exploding, with agents poised to revolutionize industries. But there's a critical missing piece hindering their true potential: a chaotic tangle of uncoordinated actions, opaque decision-making, and frustrating bottlenecks. Enter MCP (Modular Control Plane) – the groundbreaking solution you've been waiting for!
This isn't just another framework; MCP is the dynamic brain that brings order to the AI agent revolution. Imagine seamless orchestration of diverse AI models, lightning-fast task execution, and crystal-clear visibility into every decision. MCP delivers just that, empowering your AI agents to move beyond simple tasks and tackle complex, real-world challenges with unprecedented efficiency and reliability. Get ready to supercharge your AI workflows and unleash a new era of intelligent automation – because with MCP, the future of AI is now!

**Automating Synthetic Monitoring with Warp, Gemini & MCP**

This talk will guide you through the process of creating an application that automatically generates playwright browser tests for use with Elastic Synthetics, as well as explore the opportunities and challenges of developing with MCP. You will learn how, using MCP, you can create a plugin for Warp (an AI-assisted terminal) that will allow you to quickly create browser tests in minutes.

**Where:** BasisTech

Game Telemetry & AI Monitoring: Elastic + Confluent in Action

Cybercrime is evolving, and so are the investigations that fight it.

Join us on Wednesday evening, August 27th, for a unique community meetup at the Brightlands Smart Services Campus. The sessions will take you deep into the world of infostealers, specifically Redline and META, two of the most notorious malware families responsible for large-scale credential theft worldwide.

Oh, and did we mention? There will be free pizza! 🍕

**Location:** Brightlands Smart Services Campus Smedestraat 2, Heerlen (6411 CR)

**Agenda:**
17.30: Doors open, pizza, drinks and networking
18.00: Introduction talk *by Elastic*
18.30: Taking down one of the most notorious infostealers *by* *the Dutch National Police Cyber Crime Team*
19.30: Q&A
20.00: Wrap up

**Talks:**
**Introduction Talk**
Kicking off the evening, Elastic Security Labs will dive into the technical evolution of infostealers, how they evade detection, and how defenders can stay ahead. Expect insights into detection strategies, malware trends, and real-world tactics seen in the wild, all grounded in the latest research.

*Speakers: Remco Sprooten (Principal Security Research Engineer)*
*and Ruben Groenewoud (Senior Security Research Engineer) from Elastic*

**Taking down one of the most notorious infostealers**
In a rare and exclusive talk by members of the Dutch National Police Cyber Crime Team, you’ll get a behind-the-scenes look into the investigation. While not all details can be disclosed, there will be more than enough to show how these infostealers operated, how they were reverse engineered, and what methods were used to bring them down, some of which leveraged Elastic technologies.

*Speakers: Active members of the Dutch National Police Cyber Crime Team*

**Who should attend?**
Whether you’re in blue teaming, red teaming, DFIR, reverse engineering, threat intelligence, interested in cybersecurity, or just curious about how these operations unfold, this meetup is for you.

Elastic and Confluent are happy to invite you to this exciting meetup in Vancouver!

**Agenda:**

* 6:30 pm: Doors open; say hi and eat some food
* 6:45 pm: **Building Search-Aligned Autonomous Systems with MCP, Elastic, and Tron,** by Justin Castilla, Sr. Developer Advocate at Elastic
* 7:15 Q&A with Justin
* 7:20 pm: **Six Degrees of Open Source: How I’m mapping the OSS Collaboration Network,** by Ryan Belgrave (Software Engineer at Confluent)
* 7:50 pm: Q&A with Ryan
* 8:00 pm: Networking and event wrap up

**Abstracts:**

**Building Search-Aligned Autonomous Systems with MCP, Elastic, and Tron**

Autonomous agents become more capable, yet they also become harder to trust - similar to the MCP of Tron long ago! The modern Model Context Protocol (MCP) introduces structure to an agent's reasoning by clearly defining context layers and transitions. In this talk, you'll learn how Elastic can serve as the memory, grounding, and trace layer for MCP-based systems—bringing observability and accuracy to otherwise “black-boxy” LLM behaviors.
We'll walk through a working example that shows how Elastic and MCP combine to build search-aligned, interpretable, and reliable agentic AI.Key Takeaways:

* Understand what MCP is and why it's important for agentic systems
* See how Elastic acts as both the memory and the observability layer
* Learn how to combine these for more robust and interpretable AI agents

**Six Degrees of Open Source: How I’m mapping the OSS Collaboration Network**

Inspired by the “Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon” concept, I’m exploring how to map connections within the Open Source community based on activity on Github. This session will demonstrate a method for visualizing the collaborative relationships between developers.
Here’s what I’ll be covering:

* Data Acquisition from Github: I’ll explain how to use the Github Events API to get information about various types of events happening on Github. I will go into detail about what events I am specifically interested in and what filtering needs to be done to get a good dataset.
* Data Processing with Bento and WarpStream: I’ll discuss writing a custom Bento plugin to read from the Github Events API, processing the data to filter out unwanted events, publishing the data into WarpStream, and writing Bento tests.
* Building a Collaboration Index with Elasticsearch: The processed data is then used to construct an index in Elasticsearch, which allows for visualizing and analyzing the connections between developers through search and aggregations.
* The benefits of WarpStream: I’ll explain the technical reasons for using WarpStream for a project like this and how its architecture helped minimize costs.

If you are interested in stream processing, distributed systems, or interested in how many degrees of separation you are between various open source contributors this session is not one to miss!

📅 **Date:** September 9th
⏰ **Time:** 6:30 PM
📍 **Location:** UBC Robson Square, Room C.400
**The University of British Columbia**
