TALK

AI and Nexus

ABSTRACT

This is a full day workshop where you will learn to connect Durable Executions across team, namespace, and even cloud boundaries in this workshop covering one of Temporal’s newest features, Nexus. Give your team clean service contracts, secure access to execution, integrated observability, and the full resilience of Temporal without the boilerplate.

In the afternoon you’ll build production-ready AI agents that seamlessly engage humans and can run for extended periods. We will explore both the use of Agent SDKs (i.e. OpenAI, Pydantic, etc.) and native Temporal implementations.

TALK

Workshop: Secure Your Temporal Agents with Tailscale

ABSTRACT

Does connecting your agents to MCP servers keep you up at night? Are you struggling to strike the balance between usable and secure? And on top of that the agents keep crashing, making your service unreliable? Luckily, creating secure, durable AI agents has never been easier.

Join Tailscale Solutions Engineer Kartik Bharath and Temporal Solutions Architect Mason Egger for a hands on workshop where you’ll explore how Tailscale secures your environment, deploy your Temporal Workers in a Tailnet, securing connections to your LLMs and MCP servers using Tailscale’s newest feature Aperture. This is a hands on workshop, so bring your laptop and get ready to code!
