EIS-Webinar-Engineering-Retail-Infrastructure-06-16-2025.pdfEarley Information Science As AI reshapes expectations in retail and B2B commerce, organizations are recognizing a critical reality: meaningful AI outcomes depend on well-structured, adaptable infrastructure. In this session, Seth Earley is joined by Phil Ryan - AI strategist, search technologist, and founder of Glass Leopard Technologies - for a candid conversation on what it truly means to engineer systems for scale, agility, and intelligence.
Phil draws on more than two decades of experience leading search and AI initiatives for enterprise organizations. Together, he and Seth explore the challenges businesses face when legacy architectures limit personalization, agility, and real-time decisioning - and what needs to change to support agentic technologies and next-best-action capabilities.
Key themes from the webinar include:
Composability as a prerequisite for AI - Why modular, loosely coupled systems are essential for adapting to rapid innovation and evolving business needs
Search and relevance as foundational to AI - How techniques honed-in enterprise search have laid the groundwork for more responsive and intelligent customer experiences
From MDM and CDP to agentic systems - How data platforms are evolving to support richer customer context and dynamic orchestration
Engineering for business alignment - Why successful AI programs require architectural decisions grounded in measurable outcomes
The conversation is practical and forward-looking, connecting deep technical understanding with real-world business needs. Whether you’re modernizing your commerce stack or exploring how AI can enhance product discovery, personalization, or customer journeys, this session provides a clear-eyed view of the capabilities, constraints, and priorities that matter most.

"Database isolation: how we deal with hundreds of direct connections to the d...Fwdays What can go wrong if you allow each service to access the database directly? In a startup, this seems like a quick and easy solution, but as the system scales, problems appear that no one could have guessed.
In my talk, I'll share Solidgate's experience in transforming its architecture: from the chaos of direct connections to a service-based data access model. I will talk about the transition stages, bottlenecks, and how isolation affected infrastructure support. I will honestly show what worked and what didn't. In short, we will analyze the controversy of this talk.

" How to survive with 1 billion vectors and not sell a kidney: our low-cost c...Fwdays Let's talk about our history. How we started the project with a small vector database of less than 2 million records. Later, we received a request for +100 million records, then another +100... And so gradually we reached almost 1 billion. Standard tools were quickly running out of steam - we were running into performance, index size, and very limited resources. After a long series of trials and errors, we built our own low-cost cluster, which today stably processes thousands of queries to more than 1B vectors.

"Scaling in space and time with Temporal", Andriy Lupa.pdf
"Scaling in space and time with Temporal", Andriy Lupa.pdfFwdays Design patterns like Event Sourcing and Event Streaming have long become standards for building real-time analytics systems. However, when the system load becomes nonlinear with fast and often unpredictable spikes, it's crucial to respond quickly in order not to lose real-time operating itself.
In this talk, I’ll share my experience implementing and using a tool like Temporal.io. We'll explore the evolution of our system for maintaining real-time report generation and discuss how we use Temporal both for short-lived pipelines and long-running background tasks.
