Engineering BanyanDB with AI Agents: Agentic Coding in Practice
Youliang Huang ·Aug 9 ·13:30 GMT+8 ·JingMing Hall
Agentic coding treated as an engineering workflow: engineers set the goals, constraints and architectural principles; agents handle exploration, execution, validation and iteration across design, implementation, debugging and testing.
AWS's free one-day regional conference, with keynotes and technical breakouts for builders across Hong Kong. The 2026 edition centred on agentic AI as an enterprise workload.
Agentic vibe coding in a mature OSS project
吴晟 Sheng Wu
A lightning talk on constraining AI agents in a mature codebase — reviewing architectural changes, preserving compatibility contracts, and using human maintainership as the control loop. Covers what failed, where the agents needed correction, and what open source projects should weigh before letting agents touch critical code paths.
