Daytona AI Builders w/ Oracle & Datadog - NYC, June 2026

An event dedicated to exploring all things AI Engineering!

Event partners: Oracle & Datadog

​Agenda

​​​​​🕒 5:30 pm – 5:40 pm
Welcome and Opening Remarks

🎤 Marijan Cipcic, Principal Events Manager at Daytona

​​​​​​​🕒 5:40 pm – 6:00 pm
Talk "All tests pass" means nothing, especially if your agent says so

🎤 Muhammad Annas Hashmi, DevRel at Daytona

​​​​​​​Outline:

CI was already a weak signal, but it's even more useless when the same agent wrote both the implementation and the test that's supposed to catch its mistakes.

This demo shows the benefits of making your agents give every PR a receipt. A coding agent boots the PR branch in a Daytona sandbox, drives the running app through a real browser (or via computer-use), and attaches the recording back to GitHub - all of which happens on the cloud.

The same loop applies to AI code review. When a code review agent (Greptile, CodeRabbit, Copilot, or your custom agent) flags a potential bug, the agent tries to reproduce it inside a live sandbox: confirming or refuting the bug with video proof.

Stop being your agent's QA. The work and the proof should arrive together. (edited)

​🕒 6:00 pm – 6:20 pm
Talk "Architecture of Tomorrow: Why OCI"

🎤 Anu Srivastava, Director - Cloud Engineering at Oracle & Jeremy Mendez, Principal Cloud Architect – AI Cloud Services, Oracle

​​​​​​​Outline:

Cloud infrastructure is evolving rapidly as organizations face increasing demands for performance, scalability, data sovereignty, and AI workloads. In this session, we'll take a practical look at how Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) is addressing these challenges through its architecture and platform capabilities.

We’ll explore OCI's networking and performance architecture, global infrastructure footprint, and growing AI ecosystem, including support for leading foundation models. We'll also discuss different approaches to building AI-powered applications, from training custom models to deploying and integrating pre-trained models into existing systems.

This talk aims to provide architectural insights, lessons learned, and real-world considerations for engineers, architects, and technology leaders evaluating cloud platforms for modern workloads.

Talk "How AI Changes CI"

🎤 Aayush Shah, Co-Founder at Blacksmith

​​​​​​​Outline:

AI has exploded the volume of code hitting CI - more agents, more PRs, more tests - and more waiting. Blacksmith is building the infrastructure layer that keeps up: faster machines, smarter storage, and a coding agent that fixes failing checks so your PRs stay green. Come hear how the AI generating all this code can also keep CI from becoming the bottleneck.

​🕒 6:50 pm – 7:00 pm
