Title of the Talk :
Engineering Next-Generation Financial Data Infrastructure with AI

Abstract of Talk:
The explosion of data in financial services demands revolutionary approaches to data management. Leading engineering teams through digital transformations at tier-one banks has shown me what it takes to build truly scalable, intelligent data systems. This presentation reveals how to construct enterprise-grade data architectures that leverage AI while maintaining the security and reliability financial institutions require. I’ll share battle-tested strategies for real-time data processing, including practical experiences migrating from traditional architectures to cloud-native solutions, implementing distributed computing frameworks at scale, and ensuring regulatory compliance throughout. You’ll gain insights into building ML-ready infrastructures that support everything from risk analytics to customer intelligence. Drawing from actual implementations, I’ll highlight critical success factors and common obstacles when deploying these systems in production. This session provides actionable guidance for technical leaders, architects, and practitioners building the data foundations that power modern financial services.
