FlexAI: Bridging Open Source AI & Enterprise on AWS, Ian Choi, Hantzley Tauckoor #FOSSASIASummit2026

Many organizations want to use open source AI tools like Kubernetes, Kubeflow, and PyTorch—but struggle with scaling and operational complexity. This lightning talk introduces AWS FlexAI, a practical approach to running open source AI workloads on AWS while maintaining flexibility and avoiding vendor lock-in.

Learn how enterprises in Asia deploy production-ready AI platforms using Kubernetes and open source tools, optimize infrastructure costs, and scale efficiently. We’ll also explore hybrid AI architectures that combine self-managed models with AWS services like Amazon Bedrock and SageMaker.

Perfect for teams adopting or scaling open source AI, this session provides real-world insights and a clear roadmap for building flexible, cost-effective AI systems in the cloud.

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

CNCF: Uniting the cloud native ecosystem

Building a cloud native stack used to start and end with Kubernetes. But as the ecosystem grew, so did the complexity of managing all the moving parts. 🛠️

The CNCF was built to bring it all together. Here’s how the community is actually helping teams collaborate:
* Governance & Policies: Providing a neutral home for open source projects so they can scale sustainably.
* Mentorship Programs: Programs like LFX and GSoC bridge the gap between maintainers and new contributors.
* Cross-Project Collaboration: Breaking down silos so different teams can build cohesive architectures.

Whether you’re a maintainer or just starting your cloud native journey, there’s a seat at the table. 🤝
