Sheffield Data Analytics User Group - Meeting #10

Meetup #10 at Electric Works (in front of the coach station and just up the road from the central train station).

Session 1 - Alastair Reilly - Ho-Ho-How Santa Scales Christmas with Databricks: A Festive Journey Through Data and AI

As Christmas approaches, Santa faces a modern challenge: processing millions of multilingual wish lists whilst maintaining that personal touch. Traditional elf-powered processes can't keep pace with demand.

Despite all the snow at the North Pole, Databricks was the clear choice for Santa's digital transformation. Join me as we explore how Santa leverages Databricks and Agent Bricks for intelligent document processing, AI-powered language detection, and more.

Discover practical patterns from the world's most ambitious seasonal operation that you can apply to your own scaling challenges!

Close by 8:30 with a chance to continue conversations at the Sheffield Tap by the train station.
