Data Days: The SQL AI Series

8:00 p. m. - 9:00 p. m. (UTC)

AI is changing how we interact with data, and you don’t need a complex setup to start building something powerful. In this session, we’ll kick off a new SQL + AI community contest and show you exactly what it takes to participate and succeed. You’ll learn how modern AI patterns—from prompting and natural language interactions to embeddings, vector search, and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG)—connect back to SQL and real data. We’ll focus on the practical side of building: how to take an idea, shape it with the right prompts, and turn it into something useful, whether that’s a simple interaction or a fully working intelligent app. Along the way, we’ll explore example scenarios, common patterns, and ways to think about solving real problems with SQL + AI. This session is designed to get you ready. By the end, you’ll understand what the contest expects, how to approach it, and how to apply these concepts beyond the contest—in your own projects and real-world work!

This session is all about the “build it” portion of DP-800: how to design and develop database solutions that stand up in real workloads and match what the exam expects. We’ll walk through the core developer skills, from choosing the right objects and patterns to writing strong, maintainable SQL.

DP-800 is not just about writing SQL. It’s about delivering database solutions that are secure, fast, and deployable in modern engineering environments. In this session, we’ll focus on the engineering practices that turn your database work into production-ready solutions.

This is the session everyone’s curious about: how DP-800 connects modern AI patterns directly to your SQL solutions. We’ll break down what the exam expects around embeddings, vectors, intelligent search, and retrieval augmented generation (RAG) and translate it into practical, buildable concepts.
