The free, virtual Data + AI Infrastructure Summit on November 4 brings more than 20 sessions on building analytics systems for people, applications and AI agents.

MENLO PARK, Calif., Oct. 29, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- PhoenixAI, the original creator of StarRocks and the agentic AI database company, today announced the program for NEXT QUERY 2026, its Data + AI Infrastructure Summit. The summit runs virtually on Wednesday, November 4, from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. PT, and is free to attend. It brings together data engineers, architects and technical leaders to share how they build analytics systems that work today and how they are preparing them for AI agents.

Two keynotes open the day. James Li, co-founder and CEO of PhoenixAI, presents "Building the Context for What's Next." Xiaobing Xia, member of technical staff at Microsoft AI, follows with "Building a Real-Time Data Warehouse for Microsoft AI."

The program then splits into two tracks, Context & Intelligence and Systems & Scale. Engineers from Apple, AWS, AppLovin, Cisco, Coinbase, Intuit Mailchimp, RedNote, TRM Labs and Toss describe systems running in production. Intuit Mailchimp shows how it rebuilt its real-time customer data platform. Carbon Arc explains how it serves a petabyte of live data while cutting query costs. Toss covers managing workloads and permissions when AI agents query StarRocks directly. NVIDIA and PhoenixAI walk through the GPU acceleration work now underway in StarRocks. PhoenixAI's team created StarRocks in 2020, and the open source project is now part of the Linux Foundation.

"The next query might come from a person, an application or an agent, and the teams on this program are already building for all three," said James Li, co-founder and CEO of PhoenixAI. "Every session comes from a system running in production, and the speakers talk about what worked, what didn't and what they'd do differently."

A thread of sessions takes up where an agent's context should live. Moonshot AI, the company behind Kimi, joins PhoenixAI for a conversation on that question. StreamNative, Fresha and PuppyGraph show how they give agents live, queryable state, history and structure.

Each session runs 30 minutes, and all are recorded for registered attendees. The day closes with the Next Query Social Lounge, including a StarRocks AMA. Registration is open at nextquery.phoenixdata.ai.
