Capacity of event is number of tables X 4. Having a waitlist does not mean event is full. It is for me to prioritize people as per the following clause: *Priority is given to regulars, past attendees, intermediate and above level players, players who have their private message function switched on and people whom I have met before. If I am unable to contact you, I cannot ask for your availability and skill level etc and you will be stuck in the waitlist forever and ever.* This is to ensure that the skill level of players are decent and to eliminate no shows. • Find us at the following tables in bishan sports hall.. 1,2,3,4,5 Ensure you are feeling well before taking part. Do not attend if you are not feeling well. \*NO GATECRASHING! • Do bring your own bat. Balls would be provided. - By participating in this event, you agree that the organizer shall not be held liable to any injuries or damages sustained by you as a result of taking part of this event. • If for some reason you aren't able to make it on that day, please update your status to "Not Going" at least one day in advance. The earlier you update your status, the easier it is for me to find a replacement. \*\*\*\*\*NOTE: FOR THOSE WHO HAD RSVP BUT 1. DID NOT TURNED UP ON THE DAY OR 2. DID NOT INFORMED THAT THEY AREN'T ABLE TO MAKE IT OR 3. DID NOT WITHDRAW RSVP WHEN THEY CANNOT MAKE IT, ON THE FUTURE MEETUP WHICH YOU RSVP, YOU WOULD BE BLACKLISTED. 1.

Halo Data Engineers Singapore! We are excited to welcome **Jason Jebanesan JEBANESAN** from **Credit Agricole CIB** & **Kelvin Kok,** from **Axrial** to talk about: ***Stop Tuning Your RAG Start Orchestrating - by Jason*** RAG was supposed to fix hallucinations, instead it introduced a new class of silent production failures. Tuning won't save you. RAG is a control-plane problem, and MCP is the wire underneath. ***10x Your Data Engineering: Rapid Glue ETL Prototyping with Kiro - by Kelvin*** ​The longest mile in data pipeline construction is building the transformation layer. Manually configuring AWS Glue jobs can bottleneck an entire project. In this lightning-focused talk, we’ll show you how we use Kiro to completely bypass the boilerplate. We will walk through how we feed technical constraints into Kiro to rapidly generate highly optimized AWS Glue ETL logic, ensuring efficient execution while keeping developer velocity at an all-time high. **Expected agenda:** **6.30pm - 7.00pm** \- Registration\, Food & Networking **7.00pm - 7.45pm** \- Presentation & QnA by Jason **7.45pm - 8.30pm** \- Presentation & QnA by Kelvin **8.30pm – 9.00pm** \- Post\-event Networking Hope to you all soon! Cheers! DESG

Welcome back to our meetup in June. * **06:00 PM** Registration, dinner, networking * **06:30 PM** Talk starts Talk 1: Practical AI from Gemini Embedding 2 for Simplified RAG Search with Rich Context and Less Preprocessing - Imagine the possibilities if you could find a document using an image, or find audio from a report, or find a video with a sentence. \- Simplifies RAG Systems \(one multimodal retrieval pipeline instead of multiple fragmented systems\) \- Less preprocessing \(e\.g\. no transcription needed\) less infrastructure complexity \- Richer context \(text \+ visuals \+ audio\) \- A major step from “document chatbots” to truly context\-aware AI systems Gemini Embedding 2 changes what Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) can fundamentally do. Instead of treating text, images, audio, video, and documents as separate systems, AI can now retrieve and reason across all of them together in one shared understanding layer. This means users can search videos with natural language, retrieve diagrams from spoken conversations, match screenshots to documentation, or ground AI agents with real-world multimodal context — capabilities that were previously complex or unreliable without multiple specialized pipelines. Talk 2: Designing Memory Systems for AI Agents AI agents need memory to maintain context across sessions, learn from experience, and handle long-running tasks. The challenge? Deciding what to remember, where to store it, and how to retrieve it when it matters. In this workshop, you'll learn a practical framework for architecting memory systems that actually work in production. We'll cover: \- Types of memory in agentic systems \- Storage patterns: Where to persist memories and how to structure them for retrieval \- Retrieval strategies: Combining vector search with metadata\, recency\, and other signals \- Memory lifecycle: When to create\, update\, or prune memories to keep your system performant You'll apply this framework by building memory into an AI agent and seeing how different design choices impact behavior. You will be provided with all the resources required to successfully execute the hands-on portions of the workshop, including Jupyter Notebook templates with pseudocode. During the workshop, you will replace the pseudocode in the templates with your code. At the end of the workshop, you will also be able to check your learning and earn a skill badge to share with your network! https://learn.mongodb.com/courses/memory-for-ai-applications ## **Future Talk: TBA** **Awaiting confirmation: Federated Layer to Manage a Multi-Agent Synthetic Workforce** Agents are starting to act as workers in real production systems, and workers need a management layer. The question everyone should take back to your laptop: in my own agent stack, what happens on the second concurrent write, and can I prove, today, under whose authority my agent acted? How do I manage my synthetic workforce in production.

Join us for our Sunday service at HMC SG, where we begin with a time of heartfelt worship, followed by the preaching of God’s Word, and conclude with a time of prayer and ministry. Come and be refreshed, encouraged, and strengthened in your faith as we seek God together. Venue: 10 Anson Road #13-04 International Plaza Singapore 079903 - Breakthrough Room

**Special topic for this week: TODO!** Have you ever wondered what happens after you write your program in any programming language and hit "Run"? Welcome to the new group dedicated to Compiler Engineering so we can discuss language design, static analysis, VMs, and code generation. Topics related to hardware architecture and FPGA are also welcomed! **Join us weekly and learn about:** * The vision for this group. * A crash course on how to start learning compiler dev (including top book recommendations). * An open networking session for showcasing projects and finding collaborators. * Weekly topic to learn about particular aspect of programming languages or hardware **Who is this for?** * Anyone building DSLs or new languages. * Anyone curious about low-level systems and programming * Anyone hiring for compiler/toolchain roles (come pitch your jobs!). * Anyone who wants to learn more about programming languages nature! This isn't a lecture—it's a conversation. Come share your projects and get motivated! This group is not super serious, so if you want to just yap about how bad is the new C++ standard you can find some listeners here. See you!
