💭 Talk Abstracts:
From Abandoned Carts to Recovered Revenue: Building an AI Agent with AWS & Elasticsearch - Aashana Shanu (Sr. Software Engineer)
This talk explores how Amazon Web Services and Elasticsearch can be combined to build real-time, intelligent systems.
Using Elastic Agent for continuous data ingestion and AWS Lambda as an MCP (Model Context Protocol) tool, the architecture enables AI agents to interact directly with live data and decision logic. Paired with AWS’s event-driven stack, this creates a system where actions are triggered, evaluated, and executed in near real time.
The innovation is in turning search into a decision engine and serverless functions into AI-integrated tools, enabling adaptive, context-aware workflows instead of static automation
