May 2, 2025 marked a significant event in the German Python community as PyConDE + PyDataDE took place, with Aiven attending and being represented by Celeste Horgan. The conference had an academic flavor due to its proximity to prestigious universities and research institutions. Dr. Guadalupe Canas-Herrera's keynote on mapping dark matter and dark energy using the Euclid telescope showcased the challenges of managing vast data quantities and the importance of deep learning and machine learning algorithms in this context. Aiven's involvement in open-source projects, such as the Euclid quick data release, was also highlighted. The conference featured talks on real-time analytics, AI/ML use cases, and Model Context Protocol, which emerged as an exciting new idea in the field. Aiven released its Aiven Model Context Protocol server for customers to work with large language models using their data stores. Community outreach programs sponsored by PyConDE demonstrated tangible financial benefits and brought talent into the field. The Aiven DevReal team will continue to support open-source communities and projects in the coming year, attending events like Devoxx UK, PGConf DE, PyCon US 2025, AWS Summit Hamburg, and Berlin Buzzwords.
