Master Data Management

Hello everyone! Join us for an IN PERSON Apache Kafka® meetup on May 18th from 6:30pm, hosted by IMDA in Singapore! **📍 Venue:** IMDA 10 Pasir Panjang Rd, Mapletree Business City Level 5 Events Room 1&2 Singapore 117438 \*\*\* **🗓 Agenda:** * 18:30pm - 19:00pm: Food, Drinks & Networking * 19:00pm - 20:00pm: Jun Rao, Co-founder, Confluent * 20:00pm - 20:30pm: Additional Q&A / Networking \*\*\* **💡 Speaker:** Jun Rao, Co-founder, Confluent **Talk:** Queues for Kafka **Abstract:** Event streaming is great but sometimes it's easier to use a queue, especially when parallel consumption is more important than ordering. Wouldn't it be great if you had the option of consuming your data in Apache Kafka just like a message queue? For workloads where each message is an independent work item, you'd really like to be able to run as many consumers as you need, cooperating to handle the load, and to acknowledge messages one at a time as the work is completed. You might even want to be able to retry specific messages. This is much easier to achieve using a queue rather than a topic with a consumer group. KIP-932 brings queuing semantics to Apache Kafka. It introduces the concept of share groups. Share groups let your applications consume data off regular Kafka topics with per-message acknowledgement and without worrying about balancing the number of partitions and consumers. With this KIP, you can bring your queuing workloads to Apache Kafka. Come and hear about this innovative new feature being added to Apache Kafka 4.1. \*\*\* If you would like to speak or host our next event please let us know!

Traditional project management—gantt charts, routine scope tracking, and basic WBS generation—is being automated at a terrifying speed. We are facing an extinction-level event for the "administrative PM." In this new world order, Agile is no longer just a framework; it is your only survival mechanism. The irreplaceable human elements of Agile—adaptability, complex decision-making, and navigating human chaos—are the only shields against being completely replaced by algorithms. In this session, we will face this harsh reality and discover together how we can leverage AI rather than being replaced by it. We will explore four cutting-edge, AI-powered approaches designed to augment the irreplaceable human PM. Join us to understand why you must evolve your Agile mindset today, or risk becoming obsolete tomorrow. **ABOUT THE SPEAKER** **Tao Chun Liu** (also known in the community as "PM Mayor") is a Global AI Subject Matter Expert (SME) with 9 years of hands-on experience in AI project implementation and over 10 years in Project Management. He is the Founder of PM Mayors. With over 6,000 hours of teaching and mentoring experience, Tao Chun specializes in bridging the gap between advanced AI capabilities (such as AI Agents and Vibe Coding) and practical Agile methodologies.

👋 Hello AWS User Group Community! Join us on Wednesday, 20th May 2026, for our May meetup at the AWS Singapore Office, IOI Central Boulevard! We’re bringing the community together again for an evening of sharing, learning, and connecting — stay tuned as we finalise the session lineup 👀 📅 Date: Wednesday, 20th May 2026 🕡 Time: 6:30 PM 📍 Location: AWS Singapore; 2 Central Blvd, IOI Central Boulevard East Towers, Level 5 🎤 **Meetup Track** ✅ **Lessons Learned Deploying an LLM-Powered Knowledge Assistant** 📌 Speaker: Hairizuan Noorazman, DevOps Engineer Engineering teams often lose time navigating fragmented Jira and Confluence documentation. To address this, an LLM-powered chatbot was built on AWS — using ECR, EKS, and Amazon Bedrock. The initial RAG approach quickly surfaced critical issues such as data leakage in vector stores, prompt injection, and broken access controls. This session breaks down these failure modes and explores a pivot to a Model Context Protocol (MCP) integration with Atlassian, allowing queries over live data instead of duplicating it. Attendees will gain practical insights into RAG vs MCP trade-offs and a reference AWS architecture for building safer LLM systems. ✅ **Kiro IDE Best Practices in SDLC and Scrum Sprint DevSecOps** 📌 Speaker: Tim Wu, Senior GTM Specialist SA AI/ML An AI-powered development environment that embeds enterprise standards directly into your workflow. See how Kiro transforms traditional SDLC approaches through its Five-Element Architecture, making compliance, security, and best practices automatic rather than afterthoughts. Kiro provides ready-to-use configurations that enforce guardrails while accelerating development. This session focuses on live demonstrations to show you exactly how steering files, hooks, skills, subagents, and MCP integrations work together in real enterprise scenarios. ✅ **Running AI agents that control computers: AWS architecture for sandboxed autonomous execution** 📌 Speaker: Sahil Sharma, Applied AI Enthusiast Agents that browse, click, and type need more than an API call- they need isolated sandboxes, warm container pools, and an architecture that scales. This deep dive covers how 14 AWS services come together to run autonomous computer-use agents safely and fast in production. 📢 **IMPORTANT! Registration Information** To ensure a smooth check-in process, please take note of the following: ✅ ✅ Confirmed attendees will receive a confirmation email before the event titled *"**AWS User Group Singapore: Registration Confirmed for AWS User Group Meetup – May 2026**."* You must present this email at the Level 2 Concierge to gain access to Level 5 for attendance verification. 🚶 Walk-ins (those without a confirmation email) will only be considered if the venue has not reached full capacity.

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!
