Your API Is Not Ready for AI (Lifecycle Readiness Guide) - Rohit Bhardwaj

This talk explores the critical role of context in transforming raw, unstructured data into AI-ready assets. Sudheesh, an IBM Distinguished Engineer and Master Inventor, along with Sachin, demonstrates a practical architecture utilizing open-source tools such as Docling for document intelligence, ContextForge for metadata enrichment, OpenSearch for semantic search, and Langflow for visual workflow orchestration. The session outlines three core engineering principles essential for building intelligence pipelines: preserving context during every transformation, leveraging semantic relationships to inform data structure, and adopting open standards for flexibility. Attendees will gain actionable insights for enhancing their data processing efforts and making their data truly consumable by AI systems.
