Adding Generative AI to Real-Time Streaming Pipelines \| Timothy Spann In this talk, Tim will discuss the basics of real-time streaming, walk through the tools used including Apache NiFi, Apache Kafka and Apache Flink and show how to build a real-time streaming pipeline that sends prompts to LLMs hosted by the likes of Hugging Face, IBM and Cloudera. He will also discuss where real-time data stores like Apache Pinot come into play. He will show a detailed demonstration of a few use cases involving different sources of data including Kafka, Medium Articles and interactive Question and Response in Slack. He will then show you how you can build your own and where areas of growth exist.

Apache Pinot and Kafka an excellent pairing for refined palates \| Tim Veil The other Tim, Tim Veil, will dive into the history and architecture of Apache Pinot and share why Pinot is a perfect compliment to streaming technologies like Apache Kafka. If you are a connoisseur of fine technologies you will enjoy this excellent pairing.

Tim is the VP of Solutions Engineering and Enablement at StarTree. He is an avid reader and golfer. He is the father of three girls, two of which are teenagers. As a result he spends most evenings hiding in his room hoping the yelling stops soon.
