KEYNOTE SPEAKER

AI in the Cloud: What’s Real, What Works, and What Scales

AI is rapidly being integrated into the cloud, but the gap between what is promised and what actually delivers remains wide. Much of what is being presented today is still defined by big-picture narratives rather than real operational change.

At the same time, a small number of companies are taking a more practical path. They are embedding AI across their platforms, from customer-facing products to internal tooling and infrastructure, and using it to solve real problems at scale.

In this conversation with Hostinger CEO Daugirdas Jankus and key members of his team, we examine how a fast-growing platform is approaching AI in practice. From products like Horizons to internal systems like Kodee, the focus is on how decisions get made across the stack. What gets prioritized, what gets cut, and where early assumptions break under real-world conditions.

ADVISORY BOARD MEMBERS

Meet the industry leaders who help us see the full picture of the Cloud, and how best to serve the people who build it.

The VENUE: Not a Boring Hotel Lobby

The Ice Palace Studios beautifully combines the charm of 1920s historic elegance with the vibrancy of modern creativity.

Originally an ice manufacturing plant and then a film studio, its rich history now provides a unique and inspiring setting for a wide range of events. Its legacy extends far beyond the stunning spaces. This venue has been the backdrop for events that have shaped cultural history.

Set in the heart of Miami’s cultural history and just moments from the legendary Wynwood Walls, CloudFest Americas and Ice Palace Studios come together in a collaboration we didn’t know we needed.
