The Open Data Stack: Laying the Data Policy Foundation for AI

About this event

Hello Singapore! 👋🇸🇬 We’re thrilled to launch our very first OceanBase OBsession Meetup right here in Singapore! AI is reshaping how we build applications, yet robust underlying data infrastructure remains the unsung backbone of every reliable AI system. From distributed databases to cutting-edge AI data tooling — how do we build an open, trustworthy, and scalable data stack for the generative AI era? That’s exactly what we’re gathering to unpack. Welcome to The Open Data Stack — For AI Builders, our brand-new meetup series. This space is made for developers, AI participants, infrastructure engineers, and open-source builders alike: to swap real-world learnings, troubleshoot hard problems, and connect with peers building the foundation of modern data & AI systems. For our debut episode: Laying the Data Policy Foundation for AI, we’ll dive into emerging AI data stack patterns and the wider open-source ecosystem, with deep-dive technical sessions, live demos, and casual community discussions. About OceanBase OceanBase is an open-source, unified distributed database built for the AI era.
