Date: September 9, 2025

Time: 4:30 PM – 7:30 PM

Location: AWS London Office

Join us for an exploring evening to see  how we’re shifting from centralized logic to distributed reasoning – from the intellectual to today’s agentic AI systems. This joint PingCAP and AWS meetup will demonstrate how modern databases like TiDB are enabling the next wave of AI innovation.

What You’ll Discover

Learn how TiDB’s unified database architecture addresses the unique challenges of agentic AI systems that require real-time access to state, multi-source observability, and strong consistency with zero downtime. Discover how AWS and TiDB are working together to power intelligent applications that can reason, adapt, and act autonomously.

Event Agenda

4:00 PM  | Registration & Networking

4:30 PM – 5:00 PM | AI with TiDB ( The role of databases in AI powered systems & Introduction to TiDB & TIDB Gen AI Capabilities) by, Mattias Jonsson PingCAP

5:15 PM- 5:45 PM | AWS GenAI Team: Building AI Infrastructure at Scale
AWS perspectives on cloud-native generative AI and database requirements

5:45 PM – 6:00 PM Break

6:00 PM – 6:30 PM Joint Success Story: TiDB + AWS in Production
Use case of agentic AI applications powered by TiDB and AWS

Who Should Attend

    • AI/ML Engineers & Data Scientists building agentic systems

    • Database Engineers working with AI workloads

    • Cloud Architects designing infrastructure on AWS

    • Technical Leaders evaluating databases for applications

    • DevOps Engineers managing AI/ML data pipelines

    • Anyone curious about the intersection of databases and agentic AI

You’ll discover how the shift from traditional “event-driven” to “goal-driven” architecture and AI in it is revolutionizing how we think about data infrastructure. Learn why agents that stream and update reasoning with every token require fundamentally different database capabilities than legacy systems can provide.
