Data Engineering for the Agentic AI Era

​AI agents are changing how applications interact with data, and that is changing the role of data engineering itself.

Modern AI systems need more than clean datasets. They need fresh, reliable, contextual, governed, and observable data that agents can discover, reason over, and act on.

This meetup brings developers, data engineers, and AI practitioners together to explore what it takes to build data platforms for the agentic era, from AI-ready pipelines and real-time data to data quality, governance, observability, and autonomous workflows.
