Demo Evenings LDN: Building Agentic Systems with Google AI
Alvaro Silva-Santisteban, AI Solution Lead at Google, shares a practical view of building agentic systems, from choosing the right architecture to implementing trust, governance, and human-in-the-loop safeguards, along with a live demo of Google NotebookLM and Gemini Enterprise.
AI agents are quickly moving from experimentation to real-world deployment, forcing teams to rethink how AI systems are designed, governed, and scaled. Drawing on real examples and live workflows, this session explores how organizations can move beyond demos to deploy agents that deliver reliable, business-ready impact.
**Event Overview**
As AI agents move into production, teams need systems that can reason, act, and be trusted. In this session, Alvaro Silva-Santisteban shares how agentic systems are designed in practice, from architecture to governance and deployment.
**01 - Anatomy of an Agent**
A practical breakdown of what actually makes an AI agent work. Alvaro deconstructs the core stack, the Brain (models), Memory (sessions and long-term context), and Hands (function calling and tools), and how these pieces come together to enable reasoning and action.
**02 - Choosing the Right Agent Architecture**
Not every problem needs the same kind of agent. Learn how to distinguish between retrieval-based agents and action-oriented agents, and how to align each approach to real business needs without over-engineering solutions.
**03 - Live Demo**
See an agentic workflow come to life using NotebookLM and Gemini Enterprise. Alvaro walks through how teams can structure information, prompt effectively, and guide outputs to support real decision-making, while applying human oversight to keep results accurate and trustworthy.
Cloud Native London, May 2026
Hi folks!
Welcome to our May Cloud Native London meetup! Join us to hear from our three great speakers and network with your fellow techies over pizza and drinks, or alternatively chat and following along on Youtube or LinkedIn!

6:30 Welcome
6:45 The End of Handoffs: Build, Run, Own in One Flow (Alberto Pose, Pulumi)
7:15 You Can’t Patch Fast Enough: What AI-Driven Attacks Mean (Idan Elor, Oligo Security)

**The End of Handoffs: Build, Run, Own in One Flow (Alberto Pose, Pulumi)**
AI is changing the shape of team structures. A similar shift to the one that brought dev and ops together into DevOps is now happening as product must also meet the accountability bar.
At the same time, tooling has not caught up with "throwing it to Claude/Codex". Engineers are confronted with a choice: trust code and actions they do not fully understand, or... move too slowly.
Are these problems fundamentally new, or are there lessons we can draw from the past to adapt and think about what comes next?
*Alberto Pose is a software engineer with a soft spot for developer tooling and infrastructure. He is currently part of the team managing the CI/CD pipelines for Pulumi's open source projects. Before this, he spent nearly ten years at Prime Video and AWS. A major highlight of his time there was helping bootstrap the living room device automation team, taking it from a small group effort to a 30 person organisation that brought full automation to millions of streaming devices worldwide.*
**You Can’t Patch Fast Enough: What AI-Driven Attacks Mean (Idan Elor, Oligo Security)**
Anthropic’s Project Glasswing announcement put the industry on notice. AI has fundamentally changed the threat landscape and the risks facing organizations, and it’s happening faster than most security models can adapt.
AI-assisted attackers can now discover vulnerabilities, generate exploits, and launch attacks at rates never seen before, collapsing the window between disclosure and exploitation. In this environment, patching alone is no longer enough.
For cloud-native applications, where systems are dynamic and constantly evolving, this creates a new challenge: how do you stay protected when you can’t fix vulnerabilities fast enough?
This talk explores how the attacker model is shifting in the AI era, why traditional approaches are breaking down, and what it means to move from vulnerability-based security to real-time protection at runtime. We’ll cover how focusing on exploit techniques enables teams to stop attacks as they happen, including zero-days.
*Idan Elor is Field CTO at Oligo Security, where he partners with large enterprises to solve complex application and cloud security challenges. He most recently served as Director of Solution Engineering & Tech-Alliances at Apiiro, where he empowered enterprises to secure their software supply chains. With over a decade of experience spanning application security, DevSecOps, and mobile security, Idan has also held leadership positions at companies like Snyk, Symantec, and HP. His unique background combines deep hands-on technical expertise. A passionate advocate for bridging the gap between security and development teams, Idan is known for his ability to translate complex security concepts into actionable strategies that organizations can actually implement.*
**From Zero to HyperPod: Distributed Model Training on AWS (Anton Nazaruk, Cloud Combinator)**
You've got a model that works. You just need more GPUs. How hard can it be? That's where the pain starts.
GPU availability, infrastructure complexity, and cost are the three blockers that trip up even experienced teams when scaling from single-GPU training to serious distributed workloads.
This talk is a practical walkthrough of how to set up distributed model training on AWS - covering the capacity options (On-Demand, Spot, Capacity Blocks, SageMaker Training Plans), when to use each, and a repeatable infrastructure blueprint for compute, networking, storage, and observability. I'll demo provisioning a HyperPod cluster and running a distributed training job with automatic failure recovery, and share the cost levers that matter at scale.
Whether you're a platform engineer supporting ML teams or an ML engineer tired of fighting infrastructure, you'll leave with a decision framework and a blueprint you can implement.
*Anton Nazaruk is CTO at Cloud Combinator, where he helps companies run GPU workloads on AWS - from early-stage startups to larger organisations doing distributed training at scale. He focuses on making ML infrastructure repeatable, resilient, and cost-efficient.*

**Speakers and Sessions:**
Speaker: Xiangpeng Wan, Product Lead at Netmind.AI
Session Title: Enterprise Agentic Application Layer - Leveraging Claude Code Paradigms
Description: The March 2026 Claude Code leak exposed the blueprints of enterprise-grade AI agents, revealing advanced paradigms like Multi-Agent Swarms, Context Engineering, and IDE Bridges. While the codebase remains legally untouchable, its architectural concepts are rapidly accelerating open-source infrastructure.
This presentation dissects these core mechanics to highlight a critical strategic pivot: stop reinventing frameworks and start building applications. As underlying agent infrastructures become commoditized, the true competitive advantage now lies in integrating domain knowledge and optimizing UX. Join us to learn how to leverage these battle-tested philosophies to dominate the application layer, turning "radioactive code" into actionable product strategies.
Speaker: Richárd Kovács, CTO at Harikube
Session Title: From Orchestration to Platform: The Missing Puzzles to Unify Polyglot Services on Kubernetes.
Description: Imagine a world where Kubernetes itself becomes the unified platform—not just for container orchestration, but for serverless functions, microservices, and the entire API ecosystem. This presentation explores the missing architectural pieces required to make that world a reality. We focus on the architectural puzzles required to unify these layers: serverless functions, specialized Kubernetes Operators, and the powerful Aggregation API layer. By solving these integration puzzles, you can empower development teams to build real Cloud-Native nanoservices, microservices, and REST APIs on the same PaaS, in any language they choose, turning Kubernetes from a simple orchestrator into a powerful, opinionated application platform.

Building Scalable Customer Identity Resolution Pipelines on AWS Using AI
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.
