📢 Agenda & Speakers
1. An Introduction to OpenSearch – How You Can Best Use This!
Speaker: Aishwary Gathe
Get started with OpenSearch's core components, architecture, and key capabilities, including scalability, observability, analytics, and search. Learn where OpenSearch fits into real-world applications and how you can best use it to build powerful search and analytics solutions.2. From Search to Context: Building Smarter AI Agents with OpenSearch
Speaker: Pratik Mahalle
Pratik works as a Platform Advocate at DrDroid, working at the intersection of AI agents, SRE, developer tools, and open source.
AI agents can search through logs, documents, incidents, and operational data, but retrieving relevant information is only the first step.
In this talk, Pratik will explore how keyword, vector, and hybrid search in OpenSearch can help agents discover the right information, and why production agents also need structured context to understand relationships between services, databases, incidents, and changes.
Using an SRE incident as an example, we'll see how an agent can move from an alert to useful context and eventually identify the root cause.3. Getting Started with OpenSearch: From Data Ingestion to Search & Analytics
Speaker: Jitendra Gupta
Get a practical introduction to OpenSearch and learn how to work with its fundamental building blocks, including indexes, documents, mappings, queries, and data ingestion.
