Analytical Databases in the Age of Agentic AI
The Ortus Club, together with our host Firebolt, would like to invite you to an exclusive executive dinner in Munich, bringing together senior data and engineering leaders for an evening of great food, candid conversation, and peer exchange. As agentic AI reshapes the demands placed on data infrastructure, this is an opportunity to step away from the day-to-day and explore what comes next with the people facing the same questions you are — all in a closed, confidential setting. Attendance is complimentary and by invitation only.
The Topic
Analytical Databases in the Age of Agentic AI
As AI systems evolve from passive tools into autonomous agents, the role of data infrastructure and software engineering is undergoing a fundamental shift. Agentic AI is redefining how applications are built, how queries are executed, and how decisions are made — placing unprecedented demands on analytical databases to be faster, more adaptive, and deeply integrated into real-time workflows.
This private executive roundtable brings senior data and engineering leaders together to explore how organisations are preparing for this next wave of AI-driven architecture. The central question: how do you build a data stack that can keep pace with AI that acts on its own?
To frame the conversation, we'll explore:
How agentic AI is reshaping expectations for analytical databases
The evolving role of software engineers in AI-native environments
Real-time data processing and the need for ultra-low latency systems
Balancing performance, cost, and scalability in modern data stacks
The Evening
6:00 PM — Guest arrival and welcome cocktails
6:15 PM — Opening remarks presented by Firebolt
6:20 PM — Brief executive introductions
