タイムテーブル
1\. OpenSearch プロジェクト最新情報
2.ユーザーセッション① : 弥生株式会社 Kazuma Imaizumiさん
* タイトル : OpenSearch Warm Tier設計の実践 - UltraWarm経験から学ぶIndex/Shard最適化
* 概要 : OpenSearchでのUltraWarm導入経験をもとに、OSS環境でも活用できるWarm Tier設計の実践的ノウハウを共有します。ISM(Index State Management)、Index、Shardの基本概念から、シャードサイズ設計のベストプラクティスと実運用での最適化、UltraWarmとWarm Tierで共通する設計考慮事項まで、具体的な設定例とともに解説します。実運用データ(週1TB、1,000以上のシャード、1シャード約100GB)での経験をもとに、理想と現実のギャップを踏まえた時系列データの効率的な管理とコスト最適化を目指す技術者向けの内容です。
3.ユーザーセッション② : Serverless Operations, Inc. Sonu Kimさん
* タイトル : 「うまく言えない」検索を叶える ― OpenSearchと生成AIで作る類似プロジェクト検索
* 概要 : 「前に似たような案件があったはずだけど、どう検索すればいいか分からない」といった、うまく言語化できない検索が必要な業務があります。本セッションでは、OpenSearch を活用して類似プロジェクトを検索できる仕組みを構築し、業務に合わせて「何をどの程度似ていると判断するか」を柔軟にチューニングできる検索体験を実現した取り組みについてお話します。 また、あいまいな検索条件でもユーザーが求める情報に辿り着けるよう、生成AIを用いてデータを前処理・構造化するアプローチや、検索精度を高めるための工夫についても合わせてお伝えします。
4.ユーザーセッション③ : 株式会社ラクス Nobuhiro Inaguma さん
* タイトル : VectorDBとしてのOpenSearch\~5,000万件超のベクトル検索をコストを抑えて運用する技術選定\~
* 概要 : 全文検索・分析基盤として知られるOpenSearchは、実は大規模なベクトル検索にも活用できます。本セッションでは、5,000万件超のベクトルを対象に、ベクトルDB導入時に課題になりがちなメモリコストの増加を、Disk-based vector searchの活用で抑えた事例をご紹介します。
懇親会について
セッション終了後、簡単な軽食とドリンクをご用意する予定です。

Join members of the local UX and Digital Design community for a casual monthly breakfast. There _might_ be a little snow, but there _will_ be effectively infinite serve-yourself coffee, so it evens out if you ask me.
Just a reminder, while the other locations are great too, we’re at the Lane Ave one this time.

CBusData - Ok I Want to Get Data into Fabric - Now What?
I love my job and one of the main things I do is help customers get going with any of the data technologies at Microsoft. Right now there are a lot of my customers asking about Microsoft Fabric. It's hard to weave across all the shiny new options across the Fabric landscape, let alone figure out where it fits into your organization. In this session we'll focus on answering one question - how can I get data into Fabric? We'll talk through the "it depends" options and see some of the options in live demos.
Data & Analytics Wednesday - Compensation Data
**People Analytics 101: Making Sense of Compensation Data**
Compensation data is one of the most widely used and widely misunderstood forms of people analytics.
The session will cover where compensation data comes from, including market pricing data, internal payroll data, and benchmarking sources, and how companies think about structuring and analyzing that information. We will explore how compensation data is leveraged to set salary ranges, manage internal equity, support hiring and retention, and align pay with business strategy. A portion of the session will address common data challenges and limitations, such as market noise, inconsistent job matching, and incomplete datasets, while keeping the primary focus on practical use rather than technical depth.
The session will also look ahead at where the space is going, including the growing impact of pay transparency laws, expanding pay equity requirements, and emerging regulations in the US and Europe that require organizations to report on gender and pay gaps. The goal is to give attendees a clear mental model for how compensation analytics works today and why getting it right is becoming increasingly critical.
(note: we are back at Rev1 this month!)

Azure CBUS February: Build Your Own MCP Server
### Tools in your AI's Toolbox : An introduction to MCP Servers
The generative AI revolution has unlocked unprecedented capabilities, but the next frontier is agency: empowering models to interact with, query, and act upon the world. The current challenge is the “N x M integration problem,” where every AI model requires a custom, brittle integration for each external tool or data source. This approach simply doesn’t scale. How can we give an AI access to our sales leads, code repositories, or IoT devices in a standardized, secure, and reusable way?
This session introduces Anthropic’s Model Context Protocol (MCP), the open-source framework designed to solve this challenge and become the universal connector—the USB-C port—for AI. MCP standardizes how AI models discover and use external tools, moving beyond simple function-calling to a robust, client-server architecture. We will dive into how this open protocol is creating a new ecosystem for building powerful, context-aware AI agents.
Join this session for a developer-focused introduction where you will learn how to:
Understand the core concepts of the open-source Model Context Protocol and its architecture.
Utilize pre-built, open-source MCP servers to instantly connect AI to tools like Git, Slack, and databases.
Build a custom MCP server to securely expose your own proprietary data and APIs as tools for any compliant AI.
Move beyond bespoke integrations and contribute to a standardized, collaborative, and open ecosystem.
Stop building one-off connectors and start building intelligent agents. This session will give you the practical knowledge to leverage MCP and create the next generation of AI that doesn’t just talk, but does.
