**Talks:**

**Community and Contribution**
OpenSearch Community - learn about the project, the community, and different ways you can contribute and help it grow.

*Speaker: [Kris Freedain](https://www.linkedin.com/in/krisfreedain), Community Manager for the OpenSearch Project & OpenSearch Software Foundation technical steering committee.*
*Kris has decades of experience in tech, but finds connecting people to be the most fulfilling part of being a community professional. Kris is also a Fediverse admin for the Fosstodon instance and serves as a Fosstodon Foundation Board Member.*

**Keeping the conversation going: Building Persistent LLM Chat Memory with OpenSearch**
How can an AI-powered chatbot maintain context over the long haul? This session will explore the practical steps for setting up and managing a local LLM conversation “memory” using OpenSearch’s memory API and indexing. We’ll cover how to store, retrieve, and update both short- and long-term chat context—ensuring your large language model can pick up right where it left off. Attendees will learn techniques for structuring data, handling indexing, and designing memory architectures that result in more contextual, personalized, and durable AI interactions.

*Speaker: [Lucas Jeanniot](https://www.linkedin.com/in/lucas-jeanniot/), Machine Learning Engineer at Eliatra.*

**Accelerate your AI Agents into Production with Amazon Bedrock AgentCore**
This session will introduce the features and capabilities of Bedrock AgentCore and how you can leverage these tools to run highly effective AI agents at scale. We will cover the major AgentCore features including: Runtime, Identity, Memory, Gateway, Browser, Code Interpreter, and Observability to help get you up to speed on this new Amazon Bedrock feature set.

*Speaker:* [Jordan Kramsky](https://www.linkedin.com/in/jordankramsky/)*, Sr. Solutions Architect - Startups at AWS.*

**Moving away from vibes: Automatically optimizing agents for deep research**
In this talk, we will discuss how to optimize complex, multi-agent systems without relying only on vibes or the good old “LGTM” metric. Instead, we will show how to allow an agent to explore multiple options and re-write it’s prompts by self-reflecting in its own successes and failures, improving its own prompts to specialize in the specific types of queries and corpus it will encounter in production.

*Speaker: [Arthur Câmara](https://www.linkedin.com/in/abcamara/), Research Engineer at Zeta Alpha.*
