Enterprise Kafka DR Without Vendor Lock-In.

You recognize the tune, but something feels off. That's how Marlon Davis describes many of today's AI initiatives: AI karaoke. Organizations are rushing to add AI to products, but too often they're layering technology onto solutions without fully understanding the customer problems they're trying to solve. In this episode of The AI Forecast, Paul Muller sits down with fractional Chief Product Officer at Devlnio, Marlon Davis, to explore how organizations can move beyond superficial AI efforts and build products that deliver meaningful customer value.

When AI Starts Shipping Code: Managing the Collision Between Human and AI-Generated Code AI agents don't wait for reviews. They generate code overnight, work across the same codebase in parallel, and produce more changes than any human team can realistically process — creating a new kind of bottleneck we call the Merge Wall. In this session, Perforce engineering leaders break down what happens when human and AI-generated code collide at scale — and how leading teams are building the visibility, governance, and coordination layers required to keep up.

Python UDFs now Generally Available (GA), you can run custom Python code natively, securely, and serverlessly inside your SQL statements. Write standard SQL, import libraries like BeautifulSoup, or run machine learning tokenizers with zero infrastructure management. Speaker: Products Mentioned: BigQuery, Python User Defined Function.

Four specialists. 75+ years of combined close experience. One roundtable. We asked them to dissect the month-end close: where governance quietly erodes, why a one-day delay can cascade into seven, what happens when your best reconciliation person is unavailable, and where automation is genuinely delivering results today. 45 minutes of practical close strategy from people who know exactly where the process breaks, and how finance teams can fix it.

When business questions move faster than answers, teams need more than dashboards. They need AI agents that can break silos, add context, and turn trusted enterprise data into action. Meet Snowflake CoCo — built to help data teams and business users move from reactive reporting to strategic action. In the Agentic Enterprise, everyone can become a strategic force, shaping what the business does next.

Brittle pipelines and SLA firefighting hold data teams back. Agentic data engineering introduces autonomous AI agents that detect failures, fix code, and re-run pipelines—with humans in the loop guide critical decisions. This video explains how Cloudera Data Engineering and Cloudera AI enable self-healing pipelines.

our API didn't break – it just stopped matching its contract. API drift is one of the sneakiest problems in modern API development. Your OpenAPI definition says one thing, your running implementation does another, and nobody notices until a consumer integration fails or a user hits an unexpected error. The longer it goes undetected, the harder it is to trace back to the source.

Summit 2026 delivered major announcements across AI agents, real-time analytics, and enterprise data.
