Join us for an evening focused on how AI agents are moving from experiments to real production work! **Agenda:** **18:00** Gathering, food & drinks **18:30** Sherlock: monday.com’s tickets investigator - The story of an agentic workflow, from POC to production **19:00** First AId Kit **Talk Abstracts:** **Sherlock: monday.com’s tickets investigator - The story of an agentic workflow, from POC to production** What does an agent that actually works on real production tickets look like? In this talk, I’ll share the story behind Sherlock, a supervisor agent that started as a personal initiative, born from identifying a recurring pattern in ticket investigations: data collection, analysis, synthesis, and drawing conclusions. We’ll walk through the journey from a POC built during an internal hackathon, through designing an agentic workflow based on LangChain and LangGraph, writing prompts that embody a way of thinking and an understanding of the product and business context, and integrating with organizational analytics and observability systems. We’ll also cover the real challenges of moving to production: splitting agents by responsibility, context limits, guardrails, human-in-the-loop, architectural changes, and measuring impact. **First AId Kit** What if we could move a big chunk of bug fixing and solving production issues to agentic AI? That would be so cool. In this talk we will go through the end to end process of setting up a background agentic workflow that detects production errors, finds their root causes, assesses the right solution and opens a PR - so you wake up in the morning to tasks almost fully completed for you by your loyal agent. Together We will go over the entire process - the infra challenges, the agentic accuracy issues, and the final result used nowadays in real, massive production environments. Production issues still slow teams down. Finding the root cause is noisy, fixing it is manual, and the cycle continues. But how do you break that loop? In this session, you’ll see how you can wire production context into an AI agent that not only detects failing endpoints, but also traces the root cause, proposes a fix, and opens a pull request automatically. **Bios** **Kamie Shami-Schnitzer - Senior Full Stack Developer** Kamie is an engineering team lead at [monday.com](http://monday.com/) with 5+ years of experience as a software developer, with a degree both in Computer science and Biology from Tel-Aviv university.

**חשוב! שימו לב יש להרשם לאירוע בלומה דרך הלינק הבא:** **[להרשמה ושריון מקום לחצו כאן](https://tkl.to/tikal-m-meetup-28-1-26)** **Date**: Wednesday, January 28, 2026 **Time**: 18:00–20:00 **Location**: Tikal Offices, Tel Aviv \*The meetup will be held in Hebrew \*Registering through the link above is an application for approval and will be reviewed by our team before tickets are confirmed. As data ecosystems evolve, the transition to a Lakehouse architecture has become the standard for organizations seeking flexibility and scalability. But how do you manage it correctly without being tethered to unpredictable cloud costs or getting lost in file management? In this meetup, we’ll explore the practical side of managing an Iceberg Lakehouse – from building a 100% open-source stack to achieving optimal compaction in Apache Spark. We’ll dive into how to maintain high performance, keep your data organized, and stay in full control of your metadata. 18:00–18:30 → 🍕 Welcome Drinks & Networking 18:30–19:15 → Escape the Clouds: Building a Pure Open Source Lakehouse// Yoav Nordmann, Backend Architect, Tech & Group Lead @ Tikal Are you tired of vendor lock-in and the unpredictable costs of proprietary data warehouses? Join us for a deep dive into building a 100% open-source data stack that doesn't compromise on performance. We will start by constructing a high-performance warehouse including compute, storage, and observability, then expand into a full-scale Lakehouse. Learn how to integrate Apache Iceberg and manage it with cutting-edge tools, ensuring you own your data, metadata, and compute-without the "cloud tax." 19:15–20:00 → Getting Compaction Right in Apache Spark // Ehud Eliaz, Chief Architect and Co-Founder @ DualBird Compaction is a fundamental operation in Spark-based data lakes, yet getting it right is far from trivial. This talk breaks down how compaction is actually performed in Apache Spark and how it is used with open table formats like Apache Iceberg. We’ll focus on the practical side of running compaction at scale: critical configuration choices, Spark's behavior during runtime, and where performance issues tend to appear. Walk away with a clear picture of what “good” compaction looks like in real-world systems. **Important Note:** To help us prepare for seating, please complete your registration on Luma.

The topic for February is "Transitions" Speak Easy: true stories, told live. The idea is simple: an audience, an open microphone, and great stories. Hilarious, gripping, poignant- it's up to you. Audiences are invited to come to listen or come to tell as folks from all corners of Columbus offer their stories live on stage! Held at Wild Goose Creative's warm, intimate space, this night of tales occurs on the 3rd Thursday of every month. Doors open at 6:30 pm, show starts at 7:00 pm. Please arrive early if you want to tell, as we generally only have room for a limited number of tellers, and the sign-up sheet has a tendency to fill up fast. Formed around the idea that people need stories--they're what hold and draw us together--SpeakEasy celebrates the strangeness and commonness of being human. And in a world of smartphones, Facebook, Twitter, and more . . . it gives people a real, breathing, in-person way to connect. The night is geared for true stories of all kinds, taking the best tales told around kitchen tables, in darkened pubs, on the street corner, and at late-night parties and giving them an audience. Speak Easy is also a great outlet for performers, writers, and artists looking to share their favorite stories and perfect their skills. We strongly encourage tellers to please tell the story rather than read it so we keep within the spirit of good storytelling and stay engaged with the audience. All are welcome. Hang around after the show for a drink and build community!
