Join Postgres creator Dr. Mike Stonebraker on July 16!
AI agents are only as reliable as the infrastructure underneath them, and most teams are building on a fragmented foundation. Join us on Thursday, July 16 at 2PM ET for a live session featuring Dr. Mike Stonebraker, creator of Postgres and Turing Award winner, alongside experts from DBOS and Cockroach Labs. This is a rare chance to hear directly from one of the most influential minds in database history on a problem that's becoming critical for every engineering team building with AI.
RoachFest London 2026 is a wrap, but there's more to come. While the talks were phenomenal, the biggest thing you missed if you couldn't be there in person is our wonderful community: engineers, architects, and leaders in a beautiful space, chatting and laughing together. That's the part a livestream can't replicate. All sessions will be available on our RoachFest on-demand hub so you can watch (or rewatch) at your own pace.
The challenge? Build an agentic application that uses CockroachDB as its persistent memory layer, deployed on AWS. Your agent should store, retrieve, and act on memory whether that's conversation history, user context, task state, embeddings, or structured transactional data. The best submissions will demonstrate that memory is not an afterthought, but the thing that makes an agent useful in production.
