Most AI events talk theory. This one shows what actually works. I’m excited to share that I’ll be covering Azure Cosmos DB Conf 2026, sponsored by AMD, live on April 28, and this is one of those events you just don’t skip. I went through the full agenda while creating this carousel, and a few things stood out immediately. First, it’s completely free. Not free and basic, but free and packed with real, expert-led sessions. Second, the focus is very practical. You’re not getting perfect architecture slides. You’re learning how systems behave under real traffic, what breaks, and how teams fix it. Third, this is where AI meets real data systems. RAG architectures, AI agents with memory, vector search. This is the layer most people struggle with, and this event goes deep into it. Fourth, you’re learning from people who’ve actually built these systems. Engineers and architects working on real-world problems, sharing decisions, trade-offs, and what actually worked. Fifth, performance and cost. Because scaling is not just about making things work, it’s about making them efficient. Sixth, system design that actually scales. Event-driven architectures, distributed systems, microservices done right. Seventh, staying ahead. The shift to AI-first systems is already happening, and this gives you clarity on what actually matters in 2026. And one more thing I really like, you don’t just watch. There’s a Skills Challenge where you actually build and even get a certification. I’ll be watching this live, breaking it down, and sharing the best insights. If you’re building in AI, data, or cloud, this is worth your time.

SQL isn’t always the solution. I know, I know… SQL is life 🙈 But your database choice matters more than most people realize, and some data problems require NoSQL. SQL databases are built for structured data w/ rows, columns, & a defined schema. They help maintain accuracy and consistency for: ↳ Transactional data like orders ↳ Reporting and analytics benefit from a well-defined schema NoSQL databases are built for semi or unstructured data like JSONs, documents, key-value pairs, and graphs. They were designed for distributed systems with horizontal scale, where flexibility and speed are the priority: ↳ Data that frequently changes shape ↳ Modern web, mobile, and AI apps often need vector search ↳ Real-time use cases with low latency And if you want to see what that looks like in production, join Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB Conf in partnership with AMD on April 28th 9am-2pm PT. It’s free & virtual (recording available after): https://lnkd.in/eHfyzxNZ There will be speakers from OpenAI, Vercel, and Walmart showing real code and real demos. No fluff— this was built for developers by developers. I’ll be there too and I’m speaking 😎 come see me and say hi! #MicrosoftPartner
