The future of AI isn’t just bigger models—it’s making AI accessible everywhere. In many parts of the world, unreliable internet and limited computing resources make cloud-based AI impractical. This talk explores how Small Language Models (SLMs) can bring powerful AI capabilities to low-connectivity and offline environments.
Learn how compact AI models can run locally on affordable hardware, deliver real-world value without constant internet access, and expand access to AI for underserved communities. We’ll discuss the lessons from projects like TinyStories, practical deployment strategies, and why offline-first AI may be critical for the next billion users.
Perfect for developers, AI practitioners, and open source enthusiasts interested in edge AI, local LLMs, digital inclusion, and building AI systems that work beyond the cloud.

CNCF Ambassador Cortney Nickerson shares what being selected as an ambassador meant to her: the pride, the validation, and the sense of responsibility to keep showing up and help others get involved in the things that matter to them.
Maxime Coquerel (Principal Cloud Security Architect at RBC) and Eddie Knight (Founder of Revanite) introduce the Common Cloud Controls (CCC) framework. They break down how global financial institutions are building an openly governed, cloud-agnostic taxonomy of capabilities, threats, and shared controls to eliminate multi-cloud security fragmentation.

18:16 Q&A: Reference Module Strategy and Regulatory Change Tracking
📊 The Problem: The Fragmented Multi-Cloud Policy Trap Operating in a multi-cloud financial environment forces security teams to write individual, specialized configurations for each provider (e.g., AWS Config vs. Azure Policy). This causes severe operational drift—where an identical security requirement (like forcing TLS encryption in transit) requires completely distinct implementation paths. Without a uniform baseline, structural security gaps emerge between clouds, and regulatory compliance validation becomes immensely tedious.
🏗️ The Solution: Standardized Agnostic Control Frameworks
The FINOS Common Cloud Controls (CCC) project provides a uniform translation layer across all environments:
* The Layer 2 Compliance Taxonomy: Standardizing cloud services into high-level, vendor-agnostic functional components (e.g., evaluating "Object Storage" as a generic standard rather than uniquely tracking AWS S3 or Azure Blob).
* Threat Matrix Mapping: Correlating native system capabilities directly to known cybersecurity attack vectors (such as MITRE) to proactively highlight cloud-agnostic vulnerabilities.
* Compliance-to-Perform Modules: Standardized, community-maintained Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform) building blocks that are pre-certified as compliant out-of-the-box.
⚙️ Why This Matters for Financial Engineering
* Frictionless Mergers & Acquisitions: Utilizing a shared language ensures that if a financial institution acquires or merges with a company on a different cloud provider, risk postures can be validated instantly without refactoring the entire governance engine.
* Automated Enforcement Pipelines: Integrating CCC schemas with git-based engines (like Flux) guarantees that unvetted, non-compliant configurations are automatically blocked prior to deployment into production environments.

See how SAP Business Data Cloud helps preserve business context so AI can deliver smarter, faster decisions.
As AI becomes more central to how every industry operates, data strategies need to evolve. For years, organizations have focused on extracting data into centralized applications and dashboards. But when data loses its business meaning, AI can move fast without the context needed to support good judgment.
SAP Business Data Cloud provides a business data fabric that unifies and governs SAP and third-party data while preserving semantics, business processes, and policies by design. This helps make trusted business context available across the enterprise — not only for analytics, but also for AI agents and intelligent applications.
In this video, learn how SAP Business Data Cloud supports a new approach to data and AI. Instead of spending weeks extracting and transforming data, teams can access governed data products with semantics intact, helping line-of-business leaders analyze profitability, understand performance, and act with greater confidence.
With SAP Business Data Cloud, data and AI become a shared business capability. The result is a foundation that helps organizations preserve business meaning, scale AI responsibly, and drive more impactful decisions.

Ubuntu 26.04 LTS vs Linux Mint 22.3 — the biggest Linux distro battle of 2026! In this in-depth comparison I put Ubuntu 26.04 LTS "Resolute Raccoon" head-to-head against Linux Mint 22.3 "Zena" across every category that actually matters: user interface, performance and RAM usage, software availability, the Snap vs Flatpak debate, gaming, stability, drivers, and installation. If you’re trying to decide which Linux distro to install in 2026, this is the only comparison you need.
Ubuntu 26.04 ships with GNOME 50, kernel 7.0, Wayland, and Snap-first software, while Linux Mint 22.3 runs the familiar Cinnamon 6.6 desktop on a rock-solid Ubuntu 24.04 base with no Snap by default. We test idle RAM, boot times, app launch speed, old vs new hardware, Steam and Proton gaming, NTSYNC, NVIDIA drivers, Update Manager, Timeshift, and more — with a running scoreboard all the way to the final verdict.
Whether you’re a complete Linux beginner switching from Windows, a gamer, a developer, or a long-time Linux desktop user, this video helps you pick the right distro for YOUR hardware and workflow.
