Track 1: AI Anywhere

Development to Inference with Private AI

2:00 PM
Sovereign AI Anywhere - Bringing AI to Your Data in Any Cloud or Data Center

Moving sensitive data to public AI models is a costly, risky compromise. The true enterprise differentiator lies in scaling trusted, autonomous agents for complex workflows—without sacrificing privacy or succumbing to public cloud "token traps." Discover how Cloudera achieves sovereign AI by bringing high-performance AI directly to your data, whether in hybrid clouds, private infrastructure, or air-gapped data centers.

What You Will Learn:

  • Private, Cost-Predictable Model Serving: Securely host models behind your firewall with Cloudera AI Inference service, lowering TCO compared to public APIs.

  • Fast-Tracked Agentic Innovation: Rapidly scale autonomous workflows with low-code Cloudera Agent Studio, ensuring safe interaction with production systems.

  • Centralized AI Governance: Manage, monitor, and route AI usage via a unified control plane that eliminates "shadow AI" and ensures strict compliance.

Join us to see how a data-to-AI strategy minimizes risk, lowers TCO, maximizes operational sovereignty, and accelerates production-grade enterprise intelligence.

2:00 PM
Deliver Rich, Trusted, 360-degree Context to Agents with Cloudera’s Intelligent Lakehouse

The next frontier of data infrastructure is not just a lakehouse that stores more data — it is a lakehouse that understands more, heals itself, and federates context across every boundary to feed your agents. In this session, learn the three pillars of the intelligent lakehouse and how they work together to deliver a complete, governed, 360-degree context layer that makes AI agents more reliable.

With multimodal intelligence — you’ll see how to parse, extract, and vectorize unstructured data, and unify it with structured data. Take a peek inside the agentic lakehouse — how AI-driven optimizations make your platform self-healing, self-tuning, and continuously performant. And finally, learn how Apache Iceberg, Trino, and our connectors with Salesforce, ServiceNow, and SAP power true interoperability and federated access for context 360. Discover data anywhere, access data from anywhere, share data products, and power your agents anywhere in the cloud, at the edge, or even on premises, giving you complete freedom to choose the architectures, tools, models, and applications that fit your business today and in the future.

2:30 PM
Customer Spotlight: The State Tax Authority of Santa Catarina Improves Efficiency, Recovers Millions with a Data Lakehouse and Automation

Discover how the State Tax Authority of Santa Catarina (SEF-SC) recovered millions in assets after consolidating billions of fragmented tax documents into a data lakehouse powered by Cloudera. By automating risk scoring across different data sources, SEF-SC reduced manual audit selection and equipped teams with self-service analytics. The new architecture helped deliver impressive returns, notably R$750 million in recovered tax credit and targeted audits in 2026 alone. Find out how else SEF-SC is driving operational efficiency and using data and AI to increase public revenue for health, education, and security.

3:00 PM
Customer Spotlight: Banco Galicia Redefines Loyalty Programs with Realtime Data

Find out why realtime data capabilities were critical for Banco Galicia to redefine customer loyalty programs, and lead innovation in Argentina. With a Cloudera data lakehouse and realtime data-in-motion capabilities, the bank can now reward customer loyalty faster than ever before. This is a major competitive advantage in a changing economic environment. Find out what capabilities and best practices delivered operational efficiency and real results for both the bank and its customers.

3:30 PM
Enterprise Agentic AI with AMD and Cloudera

Global AI investment is skyrocketing, yet enterprises worldwide are hitting a critical roadblock: the challenge of translating massive spend into measurable business value. To bridge this gap and win stakeholder trust, leadership must move past theoretical use cases and prove exactly how AI transformations will deliver holistic impact within their own unique business environments, constraints, and data ecosystems.

The strategic barriers to this realization are clear. Recent data shows that 47% of enterprises name poor data quality as their number one obstacle to AI value, while only 43% possess the necessary security, governance, and guardrails to manage it. This session explores how the strategic partnership between AWS and Cloudera addresses these foundational challenges head-on. We will discuss the executive blueprints required to overcome these barriers, mitigate governance risks, and build a trusted data foundation that turns AI investments into a predictable driver of enterprise growth and competitive advantage.

From Data Lake to the Agentic Enterprise: How to Transform Governed Data into Agents That Execute Business Processes

For years, companies have built platforms to integrate, process, govern, and democratize their data. The next transformation happens when data moves beyond simply powering dashboards and models to guiding agents capable of executing business processes.

In this session, Lucas Araújo will explore how the Cloudera ecosystem can provide a trusted and distributed data foundation, while Semantix AI adds context, memory, policies, tools, and governance to transform corporate data into secure agentic execution.

This session will offer a practical perspective on the architecture required to take AI agents from experimentation to production in enterprise and regulated environments.

2:25 PM
From Intent to Action: Redefining the Cloudera User Experience with Agentic Co-pilots

Deriving real value from your data estate -- from acquiring and preparing data to actively extracting insights -- remains a painstaking hurdle. Because basic chat tools fall short of handling this complexity, it’s imperative to close the loop between a user’s intent and actual work that leads to the desired outcome.

An agentic copilot experience, an intelligent layer embedded directly into your workflow, brings together specialized agents, business context, and fit-for-purpose compute engines.

Whether you are a pipeline builder, business analyst, or operator, learn how to be more productive and get to results faster.
