In this hands-on workshop, you'll go from raw embeddings to a fully deployed, production-ready RAG agent on AWS — no prior RAG or AgentCore experience needed. We'll build a real document Q&A system, stage by stage: * **Basic RAG from scratch** — embed documents yourself with Amazon Titan Text Embeddings V2, store them in a local FAISS index, retrieve with cosine similarity, and generate answers with Claude. * **Bedrock Knowledge Bases** — swap the DIY pipeline for a fully managed service that handles chunking, embedding, and indexing (OpenSearch Serverless) from an S3 data source, with hybrid search and metadata filtering. Compare the results against your hand-built version. * **AgentCore Agent** — wrap your RAG into a Strands agent, containerize it, push to ECR, and deploy to AgentCore Runtime with session isolation, auto-scaling, and streaming. * **Production hardening** — add AgentCore Memory for conversation continuity, instrument with OpenTelemetry for traces in CloudWatch, run a RAG evaluation suite, and expose your knowledge base as a Gateway MCP tool. By the end you'll have a deployed, invokable RAG agent on AgentCore Runtime — with memory, full observability, and a real feel for the tradeoffs at every layer, from local FAISS to managed production. What to bring: * Laptop with Python 3.11+ (managed via uv) and AWS CLI v2 installed * An AWS account Skill level: Intermediate — some Python and basic AWS familiarity helpful. No prior RAG or agent development experience required.

We are excited to host Andrew and Bill for our next Melb.NET event where we discuss how to resolve P1 incidents using AI, Context & Data the right way, and why Logic Apps and Azure Functions are awesome for integration workloads. **Agenda:** * 5:30pm arrival - Food and drinks provided in-person * 6pm kickoff - Welcome & Introduction and few words from our Sponsors - 10 min * 6:10pm - Session 1 * 6.45pm - Session 2 **Session 1:** P1 Incident Resolution with AI, Context & Data by [Andrew Rickard](https://www.linkedin.com/in/andrew-rickard-2600594/) A real client. A real P1 incident. A production issue that needed answers fast. This session tells the story of how a critical incident was investigated and resolved using an AI-assisted approach grounded in the right context, relevant system knowledge and raw operational data. We’ll explore what worked, what mattered, and why AI was useful not because it “knew the answer”, but because it helped connect the dots across logs, system behaviour, client context and engineering judgement. **Session 2:** Why Azure Logic Apps are Better for Integration Workloads by [Bill Chesnut](https://www.linkedin.com/in/billchesnut/) Bill's talk will detail how features of Azure Logic Apps make them the best choice for Integration workloads. As we all know, integration workload tends to be the most volatile because we typically control only the source or the destination, not both. We will look at the Design, Development, Deployment, and Support aspects of Azure Logic Apps and Azure Functions to determine how they fit with integration workload. **Hosts:** * [William Liebenberg](https://www.linkedin.com/in/william-liebenberg/) \- Microsoft \.NET MVP \| Consultant at Arinco * [Bron Thulke](https://www.linkedin.com/in/bronthulke/) \- Microsoft \.NET MVP \| CTO / Co\-Founder at YouLi * [Bill Chesnut](https://www.linkedin.com/in/billchesnut/) \- Microsoft Azure MVP \| Consultant at SixPivot **Sponsors:** We have some amazing sponsors that help make this event possible: * [Arinco](https://arinco.com.au/) \- Venue\, Food and Drinks **Location:** In-Person at Arinco Melbourne.

Hello all, It's been a little while, but we're excited to finally get everyone together again for our first meetup of the year. We hope to see both familiar faces and newcomers alike! On **9th July 2026 at 6:00 PM**, we'll be meeting at **[Apas Canteen](https://maps.app.goo.gl/UgZkfnqxtoHkTxVP8)**. We picked this spot and look forward to catching up over some great food and conversation. 📢 **A quick update:** We're still using Meetup for now, but we're not sure how much longer we'll have this space. We're exploring alternative platforms and will keep everyone updated if anything changes. In the meantime, Meetup remains the best place to RSVP and stay informed about upcoming events. 🚨*There's NO BOOKING. If you're the first to arrive, please grab a table for the group and post a picture of the table's location in the comments of this meetup event. We'll use it to locate each other. (If you don't see a post, you're lucky first. Please grab us a table and post a pic. 😉)* Please remember to update your RSVP if you can no longer attend, even if it's just 30 minutes beforehand. It'll help whoever arrives first know how big a table to get. We do take note of no-shows, and to make sure we've got space for those who actually attend, your RSVP may be deprioritised for future events. **If you're having trouble finding us**, send a message to [Dan on Signal](https://signal.me/#eu/4yti0PmJCFvXhLH_vmLcxO7Xy3VAM_yY9wRhOQCA1qn7UqWh1nFBa4rNCccfHyhW) or [Gyle on Signal](https://signal.me/#eu/i0oZi6pmvttc3E_NXOFH1HVSj8MuB2PCurXqP7aDZTxDlv4EXJRBX7EmvWfEekuh). See you there. More details on the format, and what to expect below: **The Practitioner's Roundtable** It's a monthly meetup, for AppSec/ProdSec practitioners to participate discussing AppSec/ProdSec topics and share knowledge. There's no speakers, or sponsors; just a facilitator, with the expectation that you'll join the conversations. Broadly, the idea is that you're swinging by after work, for a regular catch-up with our peers over dinner (with F&B at your own cost) with a known format. \-\-\- **So, what's happening?** The format: 1. At 6pm all attendees arrive, and order (and pay for) their own meals - we'll do the rest while waiting for the meals to arrive and as we eat. 2. All attendees write down on a card 1-2 AppSec/ProdSec related topics they'd like to discuss. 3. We'll all each cast 3 votes on the cards we'd like to discuss. 4. We'll sort the cards, and discuss the topics with the top 3-4 highest votes. Starting with the topic with the highest votes. 5. After 5(?) minutes, we all decide if we'd like to continue or move on to the next topic. 6. If we continue, after 15(?) minutes, we all move on to the next topic of discussion. 7. At 7pm, we wrap up and officially end. Before everyone leaves, we vote on the next restaurant that we'll meet at. This is[ inspired by Lean Coffee](https://agilecoffee.com/leancoffee/), and intended for participants to be collaborators in the conversation focused on AppSec & ProdSec topics. *You are expected to participate in the AppSec/ProdSec conversations constructively if you attend*. This isn't the place for BizDev focused conversations. For the location selection, here are the considerations we work with: 1. It must be within 1 "city block" of the Melbourne Free Tram Zone. 2. The typical price for a whole meal (without alcohol) should be under $50 per person. 3. It must allow individual orders - you'd be ordering and paying for your own meal. 4. It will need to have seating space for the group to say, just walk-in to the restaurant ( this may change if it grows beyond 10 regular attendees ). 5. It must be quiet enough for us to have meaningful conversations. 6. It must not be a restaurant we've been to in the past 6 months. (Just to keep things fresh ) Also, although we use the word “restaurant” this is used broadly to mean food establishment - if we’re all keen on hitting up a decent kebab place, that works. As a courtesy to the venue, there's an expectation that you'd order something there.

**Practical Curiosity: Learning from Everyday Data** How do we actually get better at utilizing our day-to-day data? Fancy dashboards and complex models might look nice and draw attention, but that’s not where most of us spend our time. In fact those shiny outputs frequently sit unused, while the real insights are drawn from the analyst’s daily practice. Sometimes it’s as simple and as powerful as noticing that a segment is shrinking, a channel is underused, or certain links keep getting all the clicks. There’s many different places that the spark of insight can come from, but you have to keep your head in the data and know where to look. In this session, we’ll explore real-world examples of how segmentation, testing, and click behavior can uncover practical digital marketing opportunities. You’ll leave with inspiration for your own use cases, along with a few simple ways to ask better questions, spot meaningful patterns, and make smarter decisions without overcomplicating it. **About Our Speaker:** [Elaine Armbruster](https://www.linkedin.com/in/elainearmbruster/) is a Director of Digital Experience at the [American Diabetes Association](https://diabetes.org/), where she focuses on using data and insights to create smarter, more effective digital experiences. A lifelong Columbus resident, she has built her career in email marketing and the broader digital user journey, and is finding she most enjoys working in the messy middle where systems, data, and big ideas don’t quite line up yet.

Most people use LLMs by feel: ask a question, read the answer, decide whether it “seems good,” and move on. That works for casual use. It does not work when you are building software, automating workflows, writing important documents, or relying on AI for anything that needs to be repeatable. In this talk, we’ll look at how to improve and evaluate the inputs and outputs of LLMs using practical measurement techniques. We’ll cover how prompt changes affect results, how to compare outputs, how to build simple evaluation sets, and how math-based methods like similarity scoring can help you move beyond guesswork. This will be beginner-friendly, so even if you don't know anything about AI, you should get something out of it. However, this will be a little more technical than our intro talks. You do not need to be an AI researcher, but programmers and technically curious attendees will get a lot out of it. We’ll cover: * Why “it looks good” is not enough * How to improve prompts by changing the input, context, and constraints * How to compare LLM outputs more systematically * Basic evaluation techniques for accuracy, consistency, and usefulness * How embeddings, cosine similarity, and scoring can help evaluate results * Where automated evaluation works — and where humans still need to stay in the loop By the end, you’ll have a practical mental model for treating LLMs less like magic and more like systems you can test, measure, and improve. LOGISTICS AND PARKING: The talk starts at 7:00 PM. The first half hour is reserved for everyone to get set up and mingle. Free pizza and drinks! The cheapest parking option is to find street parking, which will only cost you a few bucks. Otherwise, park in the nearby veteran's museum lot for $8. It's highly recommended you avoid the nearby $15 garage parking.
