Srushith's Keynote - Serverless: Fast to Market, Faster to the Future

In today’s hyper-competitive market, startups don’t win just by being first, they win by staying ahead. Serverless isn't just a technical choice, it's a strategic advantage that accelerates your path to market while positioning your business for sustained innovation and growth.

In this talk, you'll hear firsthand how Serverless enabled us to move quickly from idea to impact, significantly reducing time spent on infrastructure and operations. More importantly, I will share how it continues to empower us today, allowing our developers to focus on innovation rather than infrastructure.

But the real value of Serverless lies beyond immediate gains. We’ll look ahead and explore how Serverless architectures open the door to the future: embracing real-time AI/ML integration, expanding through event-driven architectures, exploring edge computing, and even prioritizing sustainability.

Join this session to discover how adopting Serverless can not only fast-track your go-to-market journey, but ensure you're equipped and ready to move faster into the future.

Prashant's Keynote - Serverless & Agentic AI: Better Together

Agents are changing the way GenAI applications are built and has become a fundamental building block between data & LLMs. With a widely accepted standard like MCP, it is set to take off exponentially in the coming months/years. Agents by design are event-driven and are naturally fit into Serverless architecture. In this session we explore how Serverless can be a huge part of empowering the upcoming Agentic revolution & why this combination is such a killer!

Jones' Keynote - State of Serverless DevEx and Observability

Fast forward from the last decade to now, we have witnessed significant change in developer experience of Lambda, Step Functions making is revolutionary for developers. In this session, we will dive into the 2 core pillars of the developer journey - DevEx and Observability which completes the cycle of development and production monitoring and observability in the present Serverless era and looking ahead.

Dhaval's Keynote - From Renting Machines by the Hour to Renting Capabilities by the Milliseconds

Over the past decade, cloud economics have compressed from “pay for the whole server” to “pay for only what you use.” We shifted from hourly virtual-machine pricing, to per-second billing, to serverless functions metered in milliseconds - and now platforms charge per database query or even per word (“token”) processed by an AI model. This brief talk traces that journey and explains how "capability-as-a-meter" pricing helps teams of any size to compose software from granular, on-demand building blocks while generating maximum value out of every millisecond and token.
