pg_ivm: Fast Materialized View Maintenance, Yugo Nagata, #FOSSASIA Summit 2026 #pgday

Keeping materialized views up to date can be expensive, especially when using full refresh operations. This session introduces pg_ivm, a PostgreSQL extension that enables Incremental View Maintenance (IVM) by applying only the data changes needed to update materialized views.

Learn how pg_ivm improves query performance and reduces refresh costs compared to traditional `REFRESH MATERIALIZED VIEW` operations. We’ll explore the extension’s architecture, real-world use cases, and recent enhancements, including new support for outer joins and ongoing development efforts.

Whether you’re a PostgreSQL DBA, database developer, or data engineer, this talk provides valuable insights into optimizing materialized views, improving analytics workloads, and scaling PostgreSQL more efficiently.

FOSSASIA Summit 2026 held in Bangkok, is Asia’s leading Open Source tech conference featuring sessions on #AI, #Cloud, #DevOps, #Open Hardware, #Security, #Web #Mobile Technologies, #Web3, and #Databases. Learn more: http://summit.fossasia.org

From Vibe Coding to Vericoding by Max Tegmark, MIT

What comes after “vibe coding”? In this ODSC AI East 2026 session, Max Tegmark, Professor at MIT and Chairman of the Future of Life Institute, explores the shift from AI-assisted coding by intuition to “vericoding”—using AI to help write code that can be mathematically verified as bug-free.

Drawing on his work in provably safe AI and mechanistic interpretability, Max examines how verification, formal methods, and AI tools could transform software development from a trial-and-error process into one built on stronger guarantees of correctness and safety.

Watch to learn how the future of coding may move beyond fast prototyping toward reliable, trustworthy systems designed to work as intended.

How Mahindra & Mahindra Uses Agentic AI for Faster Vehicle Inspections

How Mahindra & Mahindra Uses Agentic AI for Faster Vehicle Inspections

See how Mahindra & Mahindra uses SAP’s agentic and embodied AI to automate vehicle identity inspections in seconds.

At Mahindra & Mahindra, every vehicle must go through identity verification during the final inspection stage. Until recently, that meant workers manually inspected thousands of cars every day, comparing complex vehicle IDs with system records. The process was time-consuming, slowed the production line, and added unnecessary manual effort for teams.

SAP helped Mahindra & Mahindra transform this inspection process by combining SAP agentic AI with Fujitsu’s physical AI model. Real-world car scans can now be analyzed and verified against SAP system data, with inspection results automatically updated in the system. Workers then receive confirmation directly on their phones, helping teams move faster with real-time visibility.

The next step is incorporating robots to drive further efficiency. With SAP’s embodied AI, what once took minutes of manual work can happen in seconds, fully automated and scalable across every shift.

JetBrains' AI Bot Did Something I'd Do 🤯 | Dino Letic

What does success with AI customer support really look like?

In this clip from The Dialogue Architects, Dino Letic of JetBrains explains why the biggest win isn’t CSAT scores, deflection rates, or analytics—it’s seeing a customer get the help they need instantly.

For a longtime support engineer, the real dopamine hit comes when an AI assistant solves a problem the same way a human expert would.
