We’re back with the third edition of the Budapest Databricks Meetup, a gathering for Databricks users, data engineers, analytics professionals, AI practitioners, and everyone interested in modern data platforms. This time, we’ll explore how **metadata** is becoming a key driver of **enterprise AI**, how **lineage** can help teams better understand KPI changes across BI environments, and how Databricks engineers can better navigate and integrate with the **SAP ecosystem**. 📍 **Location:** Agora Park, Hub 3, 4th floor (Árbóc utca 1–3, 1133 Budapest) 📅 **Date:** May 27\, 2026 \| 18:00–20:30 \(detailed agenda below\) 🤝 **Organizer:** Abylon Consulting 🍕 **Catering:** Pizza, snacks & beer **Beyond the Data: How Metadata is Reshaping Enterprise AI with Databricks** 🔹 Miguel Angel de Luna Gomez – Practice Lead EMEA, Databricks Enterprise data has always been at the heart of understanding how businesses really work. But things are changing. Today, it’s not just about the data itself, but also the metadata around it — and that shift is opening the door to a whole new generation of AI capabilities. In this session, Miguel will explore how organizations can accelerate their AI journey by combining Databricks with existing enterprise data landscapes. He’ll also introduce emerging patterns in enterprise AI, including how users can interact with enterprise data using natural language and what these capabilities look like in practice. **Why Did the KPI Change? End-to-End Lineage from Databricks to Power BI** 🔹 Edina Vedelek & Olivér Vetési – Abylon Consulting A practical look at how to cut through dashboard confusion by connecting backend SQL dependencies with Power BI reporting layers. Crossing the bridge between the two, thanks to Databrick AI (agent) and some Power BI tricks. This session will explore how metadata-driven lineage helps teams: ➡️ Assess downstream impact faster ➡️ Reduce dependency chaos between engineering and reporting teams ➡️ Move from guesswork to clear answers ➡️ Replicable automated information retrieval **SAP Data Meets Databricks: A Data Engineer’s Perspective** 🔹 Gábor Takács – Abylon Consulting In this session, we’ll explore how to work with SAP data from a Databricks data engineer’s perspective. We’ll cover common integration patterns, typical challenges, and practical ways to extract and make SAP data usable in a modern data platform. 🗓️ **Agenda** 17:30–18:00 — Arrival & Registration 18:00–18:30 — SAP Data Landscape from a Databricks Engineer’s Perspective 18:30–19:00 — Beyond the Data: How Metadata is Reshaping Enterprise AI with Databricks 19:00–19:30 — Why Did the KPI Change?

A terület egyszerre szól elektronikáról, rádiófrekvenciás technikáról, antennákról, analóg és digitális kommunikációról és kísérletezésről – ezért sok ponton kapcsolódik az etikus hackelés világához is. Az előadásban szó lesz a vezeték nélküli kommunikáció alapjairól: modulációkról, protokollokról, digitális módokról, elérhető ingyenes szoftverekről, valamint arról, hogyan is vágjunk bele a rádiózásba és egy RF szignál azonosításába. Mindezt olcsón beszerezhető eszközök használatával. Az előadás végére remélhetőleg felismerésre kerül, hogy a rádiózás etikus hacker szemmel kiváló terep RF-biztonsági kutatásokhoz, SDR-es elemzésekhez és legális, kontrollált kísérletezéshez. Az előadásra hozunk egy csomó RF-fel működő kütyüt, ha van otthon elfekvőben régi kocsikulcs, távnyitó, elemes távirányítható játék, Flipper Zero vagy hasonló, hozd el és nézzük meg, mit tudunk kezdeni velük.

Hello everyone, Welcome to the Monthly Book Club — the discussion edition of the Budapest Silent Book Club for those who enjoy reading the same book and sharing thoughts together. This May, we’ll be reading *Why Nations Fail* by Daron Acemoglu and James A. Robinson. The book explores the monumental question of why some nations are wealthy while others remain locked in poverty, diving deep into the powerful role that political and economic institutions play in shaping a country's destiny. It’s a thought-provoking, sweeping read that opens the door to deep conversations about history, economics, power, and the structures that govern our societies. 🕕 **Time:** 18:00–20:00 – Group discussion about the book (no silent reading hour this time) 📍 **Location**: Lumen (we will be outside in the backyard garden). I’ll bring a few discussion prompts, but everyone’s thoughts are welcome. Whether you loved the book, found it heavily debatable, or didn’t quite manage to finish — you’re invited. This month's book was the winning choice voted by you! If you want to have your say on what we read next, make sure to join the poll in our Goodreads group. **Follow us:** 📌 **[Goodreads](https://www.goodreads.com/group/show/1271292-budapest-silent-book-club)**[ ](https://www.goodreads.com/group/show/1271292-budapest-silent-book-club)(monthly book club voting) 📌 **[Facebook Page](https://www.facebook.com/people/Budapest-Silent-Book-Club/61567388151835)** (previous books read in sessions)

Here’s a description, trailer and plan for this event: DESCRIPTION: Rick, a washed-up wedding singer, and Danny, a fading boy band star, bond over music and a late-night jam session. When Danny turns Rick's song into a hit, Rick sets out to reclaim the recognition he believes he deserves. Power Ballad is written/directed by John Carney, the master of the modern musical and creative mind behind Once, Begin Again and Sing Street! It stars Paul Rudd, Nick Jonas, Peter McDonald, Marcella Plunkett, Havana Rose Liu and Jack Reynor. BUZZ & ACCLAIM: The film premiered to rave reviews at this year’s Dublin International Film Festival where critics call it “a sure-fired crowd-pleaser” that “just might be the feel-good hit of the year!” Others say, “Paul Rudd delivers a career-best performance in this charmer” that’s both “hilarious and deeply moving!” SUMMER OF ICE CREAM, VOL 2: SHAKE NO. 8!
