- Infrastructure + Data Engineering Stage – Scalable infrastructure and data systems for AI
As European enterprises race to deploy scaling networks of interconnected digital workers, traditional data structures are hitting their absolute limits. To power the next generation of high-performing Autonomous Systems, organizations are completely rethinking their physical foundation and balancing intensive compute demands with strict latency limits and tight corporate budgets.
Addressing these foundational challenges head-on, the Infrastructure + Data Engineering Stage at the Nordic Data Science & Machine Learning Summit 2026 brings together the continent’s leading Platform Architects, Cloud Leads, and Data Engineers. This crucial track focuses entirely on the architectures, pipelines, and scalable computing environments required to support continuous Operational AI at a massive corporate scale.
This track targets the physical backend of enterprise AI, solving the friction between low-latency operational demands and skyrocketing overhead costs.
Key Technical Deep Dives:
- AI Infrastructure Economics: Data-driven playbooks on optimizing GPU utilization, fine-tuning inference costs, maximizing compute performance, and mitigating the immense scalability expenses of 2026’s real-time workloads.
- Model Context Protocol (MCP) Implementation: Discovering how this emerging open standard is being used to build universal, secure communication bridges between LLMs, tools, and historically siloed data infrastructure.
- Vector Database Scaling & Streaming: Engineering high-throughput, low-latency vector search architectures and streaming pipelines capable of processing millions of data points simultaneously for live operational environments.
- AI Ready Data Engineering Foundations: Transitioning away from traditional, static ETL processes toward highly contextual, real-time data pipelines engineered specifically for continuous machine ingestion and multi-agent interaction.
AI Infrastructure Economics and Scalability
A major theme of this stage is AI Infrastructure Economics. Attendees will participate in deep-dives centered on optimizing GPU utilization, reducing heavy inference costs, and maintaining highly efficient hybrid cloud structures. Data professionals will explore the cutting-edge practices of AI Ready Data Engineering, learning how traditional data pipelines are being rebuilt into real-time, contextual feeding layers for machines. Sessions will highlight the practical value of the Model Context Protocol (MCP), demonstrating how this open standard unlocks seamless data interoperability across historically fragmented enterprise silos.
