Quarkus at apidays London 2026

Event Description: The Core Narrative: In 2026, the primary consumer of a UK bank’s API is no longer a human with a mobile app—it is an Autonomous Agent. From automated mortgage refinancing to real-time treasury management for SMEs, the London financial ecosystem is shifting from GenAI (talking about money) to Agentic AI (moving money). apidays London 2026 explores the technical and regulatory architecture required to support a world where APIs are the "legal and functional hands" of AI. We are moving from Open Banking (data access) to Actionable Banking (execution), where embedded finance becomes an invisible utility within the agentic workflow.

Date: September 30th - October 1st, 2026

Session: Architecting Sovereign AI Agents: Bridging Regional LLMs and Enterprise APIs on Hybrid Cloud
Speaker(s): Daniel Oh
Date/Time: Thursday, October 1st from 3:00 PM – 3:25 PM in Doddington Forum 2
Abstract: In 2026, the London tech landscape is defined by a push for data sovereignty and the rise of localized LLMs tailored for Southeast Asian languages and cultures. For platform engineers and architects, this creates a complex challenge: how do you orchestrate autonomous agents that are both culturally relevant and enterprise-ready? This session explores the intersection of Agentic AI, Open API ecosystems, and the hybrid cloud architectures necessary to keep data local and secure.

Daniel Oh shares deep technical insights into building "Sovereign Agents" that use Open API standards to communicate across fragmented legacy systems and modern cloud services. We will dive into the role of Kubernetes and Knative in managing the lifecycle of AI agents, ensuring they remain cost-effective and scalable without vendor lock-in. You will leave this talk with a practical roadmap for deploying agentic workflows that leverage regional intelligence while adhering to the rigorous security and regulatory frameworks of the Singaporean digital economy. Discover how an API-first approach allows your organization to lead the next wave of AI innovation without sacrificing control or compliance.
