For years, we were told we were escaping hardware. Virtualization, containers, and Kubernetes made the underlying servers practically invisible to the average application developer. Then came the AI boom and infrastructure got incredibly weird again. In this fast-paced lightning talk, Billy Olson from Canonical breaks down why the modern AI server is no longer just a machine, but a volatile distributed system packed inside a single chassis.

In this video, our engineering team takes you through a full end-to-end Kubeflow implementation, step by step – from data exploration to production inference. Follow the journey of a house price prediction use case and see how modern MLOps components work together: Kubeflow architectures and starter repositories Notebook-based development workflows Data exploration and model development MLflow for experiment tracking Katib for hyperparameter optimization Kubeflow Pipelines for automated preprocessing and training KServe for scalable model inference.

Can a general purpose, open source operating system like Linux be deployed in safety-critical products? Can it achieve certifications to standards like ISO 26262? This question has become increasingly common in recent years. In this talk, Bryan provides a safety integrity qualification approach for Linux. It is composed of Linux Kernel, user space libraries (like libc) and user-space components (like init processes), up to ASIL B according to ISO 26262:2018.

AI-powered worker safety monitoring: detecting helmets, vests, and compliance in real time.

Learn how to configure Ubuntu at launch using declarative, idempotent instructions stored in a version-controlled YAML file. In this talk, Rajan explains how this approach minimizes arbitrary commands, reduces risks of command injection and privilege escalation, and ensures validation and error handling. This is relevant on major public and private clouds, and virtualization solutions ranging from VMware, WSL, LXD, Multipass, Proxmox, and more.
