Are you ready to get serious about load and stress testing, but don't know where to start? This guide highlights the trap most serious engineers fall into: trying to build a custom DIY testing environment. The traditional path means signing your team up for maintaining load drivers, test case frameworks, ephemeral environments, and endless custom mocks a massive drain on time and resources. There's a better, cheaper, and faster solution: Traffic Replay.

A test management solution is essential when scale and complexity make it hard to organize work and see what is happening across teams. If you run multiple projects, have many people, and conditions change often, centralizing test cases, results, defects, and requirements gives you a standard process, clear visibility, and better decisions. Smaller, well-organized teams may not need it, but in complex environments it puts order to the chaos.

As businesses grow, so does the complexity of their data. Teams often juggle multiple CRMs, finance systems, marketing platforms, and custom apps, only to end up with fragmented insights, rising costs, and frustrated stakeholders. In this webinar, Sorin Petrea, Director of Data Engineering at Keller Postman LLC, shares how his team unified data across dozens of sources, empowered 400+ users with self-service BI, and turned data into a lever for better decision-making.

What does it mean to design AI with humanity at its core? Jess Von Bank—futurist, HR transformation leader, and president of Diverse Daisies—joins The AI Forecast to discuss. With host Paul Muller, the two explore how AI is reshaping the workforce and our very sense of what it means to be human. From AI-driven recruiting and workforce redesign to the mental health crisis and the erosion of human connection, Jess challenges leaders to slow down, think deeply, and build technology that serves people—not replaces them.

Join Jay Kreps, Confluent leadership, our customers, and industry thought leaders to learn how you can build intelligent systems with real-time data. We’ll show you why streaming is becoming ubiquitous across the business—and how that unlocks a shift-left approach: process and govern at the source, then reuse everywhere. Expect live demos and candid customer stories that make it concrete. Whether you’re a data leader, architect, or builder, you’ll leave with practical playbooks for bringing real-time AI to production. The future is here-let's ignite it together!

Streaming Agents enable you to build, deploy, and orchestrate event-driven agents on Apache Flink and Apache Kafka. Embedded in the stream, they can tap into the latest enriched data and be the eyes and ears of a business, continuously monitoring and acting on live operational events. In this demo, Brenner Heintz, Staff Technical Marketing Manager at Confluent, shows how to build price matching agents, do vector search for retrieval augmented generation (RAG), and leverage Confluent’s Real-Time Context Engine to process and serve fresh context the moment it’s needed for AI decision-making.

This hands-on Developer Day builds on the first two workshops (Platform setup and APIOps automation) to deliver a complete developer experience. You’ll stand up a Kong Konnect Developer Portal with self-registration and application onboarding, wire the portal to an OIDC identity provider for SSO and token issuance, and publish APIs and docs from your APIOps pipeline. In parallel, you’ll configure Konnect Analytics to capture metrics and usage data from your Kong gateways and services.

Go inside the incredible origin story of Kong with CEO and Co-founder Augusto Marietti. In this recent interview with Martin Casado, General Partner at Andreessen Horowitz (a16z), Augusto shares the pivotal moments and challenges that defined Kong's early days.

Join Everest Group, Global Excel, and Appian to explore how leading carriers are using prebuilt configurable AI claims solutions including embedded AI, Generative AI, and process automation to streamline claims, accelerate fraud detection, and unlock value across the insurance lifecycle. Gain insights on how insurance leaders are paving the way for success and how you can avoid becoming another failed AI case study.

Join Mike Tarallo this Friday as he explores all the ways you can filter and focus your data in Qlik Analytics — from classic interactive filters and smart search to new 2025 features like chart-level filters! We’ll cover set analysis, drill-down hierarchies, alternate states for comparative analysis, bookmarks, button actions, and even variable-driven inputs. Whether you’re cleaning up your visuals or narrowing your insights to key business metrics, you’ll see just how powerful Qlik’s filtering capabilities can be.
