Tech Talk: Streamlit: A faster way to build and share data apps
Speaker: Tony Kipemboi (Streamlit)
Abstract: In today's data-driven world, the ability to rapidly develop, deploy, and share data applications is crucial. This talk will introduce Streamlit, an open-source and user-friendly Python framework that enables data practitioners to create interactive data apps with a few lines of code. We'll explore how Streamlit simplifies the process of turning data scripts into shareable web applications, allowing for faster iteration and easier collaboration.

Tech Talk: Building a Production-ready RAG System
Speaker: Josh Reini (TruLens)
Abstract: 2023 was the year of flashy demos, 2024 is the year of production. This talk will walk through how to identify success metrics for RAG, rapidly experiment with different app configurations, add guardrails to eliminate hallucinations, and monitor when you push to production. Attendees will learn key skills including how to use TruLens feedback functions for evaluation, how to write TruLens logs to Snowflake or any other remote database, how to add TruLens components to any Streamlit dashboard, and how to set up monitoring in a Streamlit dashboard from TruLens logs.
