About the talk

APIs are the backbone of modern AI systems. From data collection and model training to real-time inference and AI-driven automation, APIs play a crucial role in making AI scalable and efficient. In this talk, we’ll explore how to design an API ecosystem that supports AI-driven applications while ensuring performance, governance, and cost efficiency. We’ll cover best practices for structuring APIs to optimize data ingestion, enable AI agents to integrate seamlessly, and manage resource usage effectively. Attendees will gain insights into key design considerations that make APIs a strong foundation for AI—whether for training models or deploying intelligent agents.
