A Ready-to-Build Environment
Every team will get access to a dedicated StreamNative environment, including: Kafka cluster, Real-time data streams, SQL Workspace, Agent Workspace, Managed Agents, Starter examples, and Technical guidance.
The Data + Agent Hackathon
Build the Future of
Real-Time Agents
WED 7 OCT • 9:00 AM–5:00 PM • 50 SPOTS • IN PERSON
Join developers, data engineers, and AI builders for an immersive, in-person hackathon at Data Streaming Summit. Learn how to build Managed Agents grounded in continuously changing streaming data—and turn your idea into a production-ready in a single day.
Your idea. Your agent.
Bring an Idea. Leave with a Working Agent.
Build the next generation of AI applications at the Data Streaming Summit Hackathon. Combine real-time Kafka data, continuous SQL processing and Managed Agents to create intelligent applications that monitor, investigate, recommend and act. Get hands-on, team up, build your own agent-powered experience, and show it in action.
What You’ll Get
Guidance from StreamNative Experts
StreamNative engineers will be onsite throughout the day to help with architecture, streaming data, SQL, agent development, integration, and troubleshooting.
The Freedom to Build Your Idea
There is no prescribed challenge or technology path. Build an agent that applies real-time data to any meaningful, real-world scenario. Use StreamNative’s agentic capabilities or integrate the streaming environment with a third-party agentic platform—the choice is yours.
How the Day Works
Wed 7
9:00 am
Learn
Discover how Managed Agents use real-time data and see an end-to-end agent application in action. We will introduce the platform, development workflow, available environment, and possibilities for your project.
10:00 am
Get Hands-On
Follow a guided tutorial to explore Kafka streams, transform live data with SQL, create continuously updated context, and build your first Managed Agent.
11:15 am
Build
Form a team, select a problem, and transform your idea into a working prototype. StreamNative experts will be available throughout the build session to provide guidance and unblock your team.
4:00 pm
Show What You Built
Take the stage and demonstrate your creation. Show the audience the problem you tackled, how your agent uses streaming data, and what becomes possible when AI can understand events as they happen.
FAQs
Build an agent that uses real-time data to solve a meaningful real-world problem. Use StreamNative’s Agentic AI capabilities or connect its real-time data platform to a third-party platform. Define your own challenge, explore your ideas, and show what agents can do when they understand events, make decisions and act in real time.
No AI expertise is required. Start with a hands-on morning tutorial, with StreamNative engineers available throughout the event. Join as an individual or team, with support to connect individual participants. Recommended team size: 2 participants.
Bring your laptop and charger, a willingness to experiment, your own idea or curiosity to explore one, and your preferred development tools. We’ll provide the StreamNative environment, sample data, starter resources and onsite technical support.
