In this episode, I talk with Ilya Preston, co-founder and CEO of PAXAFE, a logistics orchestration and decision intelligence platform for temperature-controlled supply chains (aka “cold chain”). Ilya explains how PAXAFE helps companies shipping sensitive products, like pharmaceuticals, vaccines, food, and produce, by delivering end-to-end visibility and actionable insights powered by analytics and AI that reduce product loss, improve efficiency, and support smarter real-time decisions.

Ilya shares the challenges of building a configurable system that works for transportation, planning, and quality teams across industries. We also discuss their product development philosophy, team structure, and use of AI for document processing, diagnostics, and workflow automation.

Intro to Paxafe  (2:13)   How PAXAFE brings tons of cold chain data together in one user experience (2:33) Innovation in cold chain analytics is up, but so is cold chain product loss. (4:42) The product challenge of getting sufficient telemetry data at the right level of specificity to derive useful analytical insights (7:14)  Why and how PAXAFE pivoted away from providing IoT hardware to collect telemetry (10:23) How PAXAFE supports complex customer workflows, cold chain logistics, and complex supply chains (13:57) Who the end users of PAXAFE are, and how the product team designs for these users (20:00) Pharma loses around $40 billion a year relying on ‘Bob’s intuition’ in the warehouse. How Paxafe balances institutional user knowledge with the cold hard facts of analytics (42:43) Lessons learned when Ilya’s team fell in love with its own product and didn’t listen to the market  (23:57)

Quotes from Today’s Episode "Our initial vision for what PAXAFE would become was 99.9% spot on. The only thing we misjudged was market readiness—we built a product that was a few years ahead of its time." –IIya

"As an industry, pharma is losing $40 billion worth of product every year because decisions are still based on warehouse intuition about what works and what doesn’t. In production, the problem is even more extreme, with roughly $800 billion lost annually due to temperature issues and excursions." -IIya

"With our own design, our initial hypothesis and vision for what Pacaf could be really shaped where we are today. Early on, we had a strong perspective on what our customers needed—and along the way, we fell in love with our own product and design.." -IIya

"We spent months perfecting risk scores… only to hear from customers, ‘I don’t care about a 71 versus a 62—just tell me what to do.’ That single insight changed everything." -IIya

"If you’re not talking to customers or building a product that supports those conversations, you’re literally wasting time. In the zero-to-product-market-fit phase, nothing else matters, you need to focus entirely on understanding your customers and iterating your product around their needs..” -IIya

"Don’t build anything on day one, probably not on day two, three, or four either. Go out and talk to customers. Focus not on what they think they need, but on their real pain points. Understand their existing workflows and the constraints they face while trying to solve those problems." -IIya

Abstract: Detecting problems as they happen is essential in today’s fast-moving, data-driven world. In this talk, you’ll learn how to build a flexible, real-time anomaly detection pipeline using Apache Kafka and Apache Flink, backed by statistical and machine learning models. We’ll start by demystifying what anomaly really means - exploring the different types (point, contextual, and collective anomalies) and the difference between unintentional issues and intentional outliers like fraud or abuse. Then, we’ll look at how anomaly detection is solved in practice: from classical statistical models like ARIMA to deep learning models like LSTM. You’ll learn how ARIMA breaks time series into AutoRegressive, Integrated, and Moving Average components, no math degree required (just a Python library). We’ll also uncover why forgetting is a feature, not a bug, when it comes to LSTMs, and how these models learn to detect complex patterns over time. Throughout, we’ll show how Kafka handles high-throughput streaming data and how Flink enables low-latency, stateful processing to catch issues as they emerge. You’ll leave knowing not just how these systems work, but when to use each type of model depending on your data and goals. Whether you're monitoring system health, tracking IoT devices, or looking for fraud in transactions, this talk will give you the foundations and tools to detect the unexpected - before it becomes a problem.

Discussion by members of the CIISAp consortium on the design and launch of the CIISAp apprenticeship program, which links rigorous academic classes and educational training with real-world job rotations at leading industrial companies to help students identify and prevent cyber vulnerabilities and attacks on industrial control systems and OT/IT/IoT platforms.

In this talk, we’ll walk through a complete real-time IoT architecture—from an economical, high-powered ESP32 microcontroller publishing environmental sensor data to AWS IoT, through Redpanda Connect into a Redpanda BYOC cluster, and finally into Apache Iceberg for long-term analytical storage. Once the data lands, we’ll query it using Python and perform linear regression with Prophet to forecast future trends. Along the way, we’ll explore the design of a scalable, cloud-native pipeline for streaming IoT data. Whether you're tracking the weather or building the future, this session will help you architect with confidence—and maybe even predict it.

In this session, we’ll introduce Zerobus Direct Write API, part of Lakeflow Connect, which enables you to push data directly to your lakehouse and simplify ingestion for IOT, clickstreams, telemetry, and more. We’ll start with an overview of the ingestion landscape to date. Then, we'll cover how you can “shift left” with Zerobus, embedding data ingestion into your operational systems to make analytics and AI a core component of the business, rather than an afterthought. The result is a significantly simpler architecture that scales your operations, using this new paradigm to skip unnecessary hops. We'll also highlight one of our early customers, Joby Aviation and how they use Zerobus. Finally, we’ll provide a framework to help you understand when to use Zerobus versus other ingestion offerings—and we’ll wrap up with a live Q&A so that you can hit the ground running with your own use cases.
