【Bay Area Event】Dragonfly x Greptime at MDI Summit — Discussing the Real-Time Era with MotherDuck and TiDB

The Modern Data Infrastructure (MDI) Summit in the Bay Area gathers global engineers and architects to explore scalable, resilient systems for the AI era—from distributed databases to real-time ML feature stores and LLM-scale architectures.

In the age where AI and real-time computing are reshaping the data landscape, data infrastructure is facing unprecedented challenges.

Hosted by Dragonfly and co-sponsored by GreptimeDB, ScyllaDB, MotherDuck, Redpanda, and TiDB, the Modern Data Infrastructure (MDI) Summit will bring together engineers and architects from around the world in the Bay Area this month. The event will explore how to design and build scalable, efficient, and resilient modern data systems. From distributed databases to real-time ML feature stores, and architectures powering LLM services at million-user scale, cutting-edge technologies and practices will take center stage.
