This session breaks down the two critical layers of a scalable agentic architecture: The Execution Layer, which provides a standardised platform for agent runtime scaling, and the Orchestration Layer, which leverages event-driven architecture to keep agents reactive and synchronised. Explore the transition from solo AI-assisted development to a centralised platform model that translates individual productivity gains into aggregate organisational benefits. This involves building runtimes for a multi-assistant era, where governance is a feature rather than an operational tax. Complementing this, we’ll examine how event-driven architecture acts as a backbone to update knowledge bases in real-time with high-quality data. Learn how this approach simplifies the incorporation of new agents, allowing you to scale from single-agent to multi-agent applications without increasing operational load or compromising data governance. This session concludes with a community discussion designed for practitioners to exchange shared challenges, and learn from each other’s experiences in building robust AI systems. We’d like to hear from your experiences too! So come join in on the discussion today: **[go.gov.sg/stackmeetup-7may2026-mc](https://go.gov.sg/stackmeetup-7may2026-mc)** Who should attend: AI engineers, platform architects, and data practitioners focused on transitioning AI agents from experimental scripts into resilient and production-ready enterprise systems. **Programme** 6:30pm: Networking 7:00pm: Introduction By STACK Community 7:05pm: Opening 7:15pm: Scaling AI Development​ By Ng Shangru, Staff Software Engineer, AI Programme, GovTech Singapore 7:35pm: From Demo to Production: Scaling Agentic AI with Event-Driven Architecture Seamlessly​​ By Shelvia Hotama, Senior Solutions Engineer, Confluent 7:55pm: Discussion on Building Robust and Scalable AI Systems With Shangru, and Shelvia 8:15pm: Q&A 8:30pm: End of STACK Meetup Click **[here](https://go.gov.sg/stackmeetup-7may2026-mc)\*** to sign up! \*Registration will be accepted via GovEntry only.

Customer identity resolution becomes increasingly complex as organizations scale across multiple systems, regions, and data formats. Traditional rule-based approaches often fail to keep up with data variability, require constant manual tuning, and struggle with real-time processing needs. This session presents a practical approach to building a scalable identity resolution pipeline using AWS services and modern AI techniques. The architecture combines data ingestion through Amazon S3 and AWS Glue, transformation pipelines using Spark on EMR, and machine learning models deployed via SageMaker for entity matching and standardization. Graph-based relationship modeling is implemented using Amazon Neptune to improve resolution accuracy by incorporating household and shared attribute context. We will walk through how machine learning models can be used for name and address normalization, how intelligent blocking strategies improve matching efficiency, and how feedback loops can be introduced to continuously improve accuracy. The session also highlights how serverless components such as AWS Lambda can be used for orchestration and real-time processing. **SPEAKER BIO** Mosaic Syed is a Senior Data Engineering and Cloud Solutions Architect with over 20 years of experience designing and delivering scalable, secure, and high-performance data solutions across global enterprise environments. https://www.linkedin.com/in/mosaic-basha-syed-92300856 **CALL FOR SPEAKERS** Learn more: [https://www.awscolumbus.com/get-involved/](https://www.awscolumbus.com/get-involved/) **THANK YOU** *VEEAM* for hosting our meetup!

Communication is everything in life You are only as successful as your ability to communicate. \- What if you could confidently talk to anyone? \- What if you had the ability to calmly control every conversation? \- What if you could close that sale\, ask for that date\, make new friends\, repair problematic relationships\, get that raise\, or effortlessly express any idea with confidence? You can! The secret to success relies on your ability or inability to effectively communicate. Attend a free seminar and gain a better ability to communicate.

Practical AI for Power BI Developers A year ago, “agentic AI” was mostly hype for Power BI teams. Today, it deserves your undivided attention. For Power BI pros, there is now a real opportunity to reduce repetitive development work, accelerate delivery, and help developers do more, but only when strong DataOps practices are in place to make AI workflows effective. This session is a no-nonsense introduction to effective AI patterns for Power BI and Fabric development. Along the way, we will make sense of the growing pile of terminology, including skills, plugins, hooks, and MCP. You will see examples of how modern AI tooling can help with development tasks across Power BI and Fabric, along with the prerequisites, guardrails, and DataOps principles needed to use it responsibly. Whether you're burned out on AI hype or already using Copilot CLI daily, this session will show you the foundations that are finally making AI-assisted development genuinely useful.

Columbus Code & Coffee is an inclusive, informal co-working session. People of all skill levels attend, and we love it that way.

The format will likely be presentation-style, with live demos and time for questions throughout. You'll see each tool in action and learn how they fit into a Unity workflow. What to Expect: * An introduction to version control and why it's essential for Unity projects * An overview of Git, Perforce, and Unity Version Control * Demos of each tool in a Unity workflow * Tips for getting started * No prior version control experience required * Resources for continued learning All experience levels are welcome. Whether you're new to version control or already using one of these tools, this session will help you understand what each one offers. Food and drinks provided. Join us to learn more about version control options for Unity.
