Building Trustworthy and Reliable LLM Applications
We are entering the next wave of LLM understanding, so we want to make Natural Language Processing applications more reliable, robust, and trustworthy. This talk introduces the best practices and techniques for securing LLMs through guardrails that monitor and filter inputs and outputs.
We’ll examine how to effectively prevent malicious intent in inputs and protect against the exposure of sensitive data in outputs, using practical examples with Hugging Face and OpenAI models.
Through live demonstrations, attendees will learn how tools like LangChain4J can work together to detect and mitigate risks such as prompt injection attacks, unauthorized data access, poisoning RAG, and sanitization.
The session will conclude with a discussion on the evolving landscape of LLM security, the importance of vigilant permissions, and continuous monitoring to safeguard user and organizational data. This talk is ideal for developers, security practitioners, and anyone responsible for deploying LLMs into real-world applications.
Healthy Geeks, Better Code: Lessons from Fitness and AI
Being a software geek often means working long hours, late nights, and weekends. The result is tiredness, stress, and low energy that makes it harder to enjoy building software. But staying fit can help you feel better, think clearer, and even be more effective at your job.
In this talk, Marc Nuri, Markus Eisele and Sergey Beryozkin will share their own fitness stories and how they found balance between coding and staying healthy. You will see how small steps in fitness can improve both your health and your productivity.
We will also show a live demo of the Quarkus LangChain4j Fitness Adviser, an AI service that uses Strava activity data together with Google Gemini to give fitness advice. It is a fun example of how modern AI tools can be used in a positive and practical way.
You will leave this session with new ideas, a smile, and maybe even the motivation to start your own fitness journey, supported by a bit of AI help
RAG like a hero with Docling
Using RAG is relatively simple, especially with libraries like LangChain4j, which provides modules for chunking, ingesting documents, and retrieving them from the vector store. However, getting satisfactory results may be more complicated. Hallucinations, inaccurate information, contradictory answers, invalid parsed data, or incomplete responses.
In this session, you’ll move your RAG knowledge to the next level using LangChain4j and Docling.
Enterprise Integration Is Dead! Long Live AI-Driven Integration with Apache Camel
We keep hearing that “integration” is old news, with modern architectures and platforms promising frictionless connectivity. So, is enterprise integration really dead? Not exactly! In this session, we’ll talk about how AI-infused applications and tool-calling agents are redefining the concept of integration, especially when combined with the power of Apache Camel.
We will discuss the the role of enterprise integration in an era where Large Language Models (LLMs) and agent-driven automation can interpret business needs, handle routing, and invoke Camel endpoints with minimal developer intervention. You will see how these AI-enabled systems help weave business data, applications, and services together giving us flexibility and freeing us from hardcoding boilerplate of integration flows.
You’ll walk away with:
An updated perspective on the future of “integration” in a world driven by AI, LLMs, and intelligent agents.
Real-world examples of how tool-calling functionality can transform Camel routes into dynamic, adaptive workflows.
Code examples how to merge AI capabilities with Apache Camel to deliver flexible, event-driven architectures at scale.
Roadmap strategies for integrating LLM-powered agents into your enterprise, orchestrating services that previously demanded complex, rigid solutions.
Join us to see why rumours of integration’s relevancy have been greatly exaggerated—and see first hand how Camel, powered by AI, is quietly reinventing how we connect the enterprise.
From Code To Production - How Developer Tools Make you Successful
Developer tools are often seen as an necessary evil: But they truly are key to striving, productive, and performant development. Your choice of tools decides about how fast you can build frictionless cloud and Kubernetes native applications. We take a look at the Red Hat Developer Tools portfolio and see which tool helps you where. Experience how source code moves through unit-tests, into containers, onto staging and arrives in production.
Backstage Software Templates for Java Developers
As a Java developer you might have a hard time accepting the limitations that you feel being introduced into your development cycles. Let's look at the positives and learn everything important to know to turn Backstag's software templates into a helpful tool you can use to elevate the platform experience for all developers.

How losing 60 lbs made me a better Platform Engineer
A talk to confuse correlation and causation. During my personal running journey over the last two years, I learned some lessons about endurance running that will also help with creating a developer platform. The secret to success with both is a change in mindset. I will look at many different aspects covering technology, process, organization, and success metrics. This talk will highlight six opportunities to expand the platform as a product approach beyond technology selection and anchor it in continuous learning, community, and the right interfaces. How does all of this relate to my endurance running lessons? Come to find out.
When all you have is infrastructure, everything looks like a platform to you.
Infrastructure is the fundament of application development. And sometimes the only thing companies care about. This talk explains how you shift your focus to platforms and developer experience.
