Talk "Forkable Sandboxes for Long-Running Agents"​

​🎤 Muhammad Annas Hashmi, DevRel at Daytona

​​​​​​​​Outline:

​Agents are starting to do real software work: installing dependencies, editing files, running tests, starting servers, and debugging over long sessions. But most AI systems still treat each run like a disposable prompt-response loop. That breaks down once the useful state lives not just in tokens, but in the actual machine.

This talk is about the runtime layer agents need to become reliable builders. I’ll show how forkable Daytona sandboxes let you pause at important moments in an agent run, branch the environment, and sample multiple continuations from the same machine state. For builders, this turns long-running agent workflows into something you can inspect, compare, recover, and eventually optimize.

​​🕒 5:50 pm – 6:05 pm
Talk "Building AI for the Real World: From Infrastructure to Scale"

​🎤 Balraj Kadaikal, Senior Manager, Cloud Engineering at Oracle

​🎤 Srikanth Kodali, Master Principal Cloud Architecture at Oracle

​​​​​​​​Outline:

​AI applications are evolving rapidly as developers face increasing demands for performance, scalability, access to data, and reliability in production. In this session, we’ll take a practical look at the infrastructure and architectural considerations behind building and scaling modern AI applications.

​We’ll explore how compute, networking, storage, models, and data come together to support different AI workloads, including inference, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), agentic applications, and model training. We’ll also discuss how architectural requirements change as applications move from experimentation to production, using Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) to illustrate these patterns and tradeoffs.

​This talk aims to provide architectural insights, lessons learned, and real-world considerations for developers, engineers, architects, and technology leaders building and scaling AI applications.
