AWS & Neo4j Generative AI Workshop Minneapolis

Thursday, June 6
1pm - 5:30pm CT
Fat Pants Brewing Co., 8335 Crystal View Rd, Eden Prairie, MN 55344

Generative AI marks one of the most significant technological shifts in history. Many companies are exploring the convergence of GenAI and cloud technologies to drive core business processes including fraud detection, customer analytics, or real-time recommendations.

Join Neo4j and AWS experts for a hands-on workshop where you will learn how to use graph technology to build intelligent, context-driven applications with lightning-fast queries and real-time insights. During this hands-on lab designed specifically for data scientists and data engineers, we’ll begin by walking you through the deployment of Neo4j and SageMaker on AWS. 

This workshop will empower you to:

  • Learn about Neo4j, Amazon Bedrock, Anthropic Claude & Amazon SageMaker
  • Leverage best practices for implementing Neo4j on AWS
  • Use of generative AI for parsing and loading data
  • Integration of a chatbot powered by generative AI (LangChain) with the knowledge graph
  • Utilization of Neo4j's vector search and index functionality with Amazon Bedrock for semantic search

You'll come out of this workshop understanding the advantages of graph technology over traditional databases and how graphs can help you tackle your GenAI challenges.

Following the workshop, join us for a networking event. Food and beverages will be served. This event is free but space is limited, register today!

Please note: You will need to bring your laptop for the session. We will not record or live stream the workshop.

IMPORTANT: You'll need a laptop with a web browser. Your browser will need to be able to access the AWS Console and port 7474 on a Neo4j deployment running on AWS. If your laptop has a firewall you can't control, you may want to bring your personal laptop.
