Event Details

AI-assisted coding is making it possible to turn ideas into working applications faster than ever. But building a prototype is not the same as delivering secure, scalable, enterprise-ready software. Join SME Sponsor CloudOffix to explore the opportunities and limitations of vibe coding - and see a live comparison of two different approaches to building the same business application.

These emerging approaches are rapidly changing how software is imagined, built, and delivered. With a simple prompt, almost anyone can now create a working application in a matter of hours. But creating an application is only the beginning. Enterprise software must also address security, data governance, integration, scalability, reliability, and long-term maintainability.

This interactive session will explore what vibe coding and AI-assisted development really mean, how they are changing traditional software development, and what organizations need to successfully move from prompt to production. Through a live demonstration, attendees will see firsthand how different development approaches compare and gain practical insights into balancing speed, innovation, and the requirements of enterprise-ready software. 

Discussion Topics

• Vibe Coding and AI-Assisted Development – What they are, how they differ, and why they are gaining momentum.
• The Changing Software Development Landscape – How AI is reshaping the roles of developers, business teams, and technology leaders.
• Opportunities and Limitations – Where vibe coding creates real business value and where its risks begin to appear.
• From Prototype to Production – Why building a working application is different from operating secure, reliable, and maintainable enterprise software.
• Enterprise Readiness – The importance of data architecture, permissions, governance, integrations, scalability, and lifecycle management.
