This technical session demonstrates a production-ready, end-to-end workflow for Microsoft Intune app delivery using EtherApps Forge and EtherAssist. We begin by capturing the application without installation media in Forge to produce MSI, Win32 (.intunewin), and MSIX packages. Forge also generates a JSON manifest that serves as the source of truth for documentation and validation. EtherAssist ingests the manifest to create auditable documentation, surface actionable insights, and assist with troubleshooting. Finally, the EtherAssist browser extension guides admins step-by-step in Intune, uploading packages, creating Win32 detection rules, and configuring requirements, scope tags, and assignments (MSIX detection is native). Attendees leave with a repeatable, enterprise-grade process they can apply immediately.

How Remote Display Protocols Actually Work: Capture → Codec → Network → Present
In this vendor-neutral technical workshop, you'll embark on a comprehensive journey of a remote frame from capturing host graphics to making encoder decisions and implementing adaptive rate control, navigating through the transport layer, decoding on the client side, and finally presenting the output. The session will delve into where latency, drops, and visual artifacts originate and how to differentiate protocol faults from issues with the encoder, client, or OS/driver.
The session will cover capture timing, codec trade-offs (latency versus bitrate versus quality), pacing and congestion behaviors, and practical measurement signals for diagnosis. Attendees will gain a clear mental model of the remote protocol pipeline and a concise checklist for isolating protocol problems without the need for instrumentation-heavy experiments.

From Assistant to Agent: The Evolution of AI-Powered Development. Does It Make Us Smarter or Dumber?
AI coding tools have evolved from simple autocomplete suggestions to autonomous agents capable of writing, compiling, running, and testing code end-to-end. In this session, we'll explore the paradigm shift from passive AI assistants to active AI agents that can independently execute development workflows.
Through live demonstrations, we'll showcase how agentic AI systems can:
But this remarkable capability raises a critical question: as AI agents take on more of the cognitive load of software development, are we becoming more effective engineers—freed to focus on higher-level problem-solving and architecture—or are we at risk of losing essential skills and deep technical understanding?

Glorious 27: how to (not) run a factory on 27 IP addresses in AWS
By Luca Tritsch
Abstract: Running a modern smart factory on just 27 IP addresses in AWS — what could possibly go wrong? In this session, Luca will share the real-world story of building cloud infrastructure for a factory in Germany. From aligning business requirements with AWS architecture, network design challenges, IaC with Terraform and containerized web apps, you’ll hear how a global manufacturer drives digital transformation in a production environment where IT meets OT.
Beyond the technical lessons, he will compare the German and Chinese factory experiences, highlighting not just the architectural differences but also the cultural aspects of collaboration.
Luca is a cloud architect and former trainee in digital transformation at a German DAX company. In his role, he is responsible for the AWS architecture that enables IoT, data engineering and web applications in an electrical device factory in Frankfurt, which has over 3,000 colleagues and generates more than a billion euros in revenue. As part of his work, he also spent two months at a sister factory in China.
