Architecture Next 2026: Talk to My Agent
Join us at Architecture Next 2026, CodeValue’s flagship software architecture conference — now in its 9th consecutive year!
This year’s theme, "Talk to My Agent," explores the transition toward an agentic SDLC. We are moving beyond standalone AI tools to a holistic ecosystem where autonomous agents redefine how we design, develop, and defend modern software systems.
The conference features three dedicated professional tracks:
-
Architecture: Deep-diving into system design and evolution in the age of AI agents.
-
Builders: Focusing on the practical engineering, Ops, and implementation of agentic workflows.
-
Cyber: Addressing the unique security challenges and defense strategies in an automated world.
And, for the first time on stage, the Agent Arena: A live battle where AI agents compete against each other and a human in real-time. Predict outcomes, climb the leaderboard, and win prizes!
Tailored for software engineers, architects, tech leads, Ops professionals, and R&D decision-makers, Architecture Next 2026 is where you’ll gain the insights needed to navigate and lead the next era of engineering.
Tickets are FREE, but seats are limited and subject to approval.
Reserve your spot today and be part of the agentic revolution
The Agenda
8:30-9:30 Opening Doors & Breakfast
Welcome & chit chat
Main hall
9:30-10:00 Day intro
Tali Shem Tov (CEO, the CodeValue Group)
Main hall
10:00-10:30 Agent Arena: The Battle of the Agents – Live Kickoff
Eyal Reginiano, Head of R&D , Liacom/CodeValue & Adi Federovsky, SW Developer, CodeValue
Main Hall
For the first time, leading AI agents and a human developer will compete under the same conditions - in real time.
You’ll see:
-
How each agent approaches the problem
-
How decisions are made under pressure
-
How performance is measured
You’ll also join the game: predict outcomes, follow the results, and compete throughout the day.
This session sets the stage for everything that follows - once it starts, the Arena runs all day.
10:30-11:15 Keynote - Treat the Risk, Not the Disease: A Talk About the Elephant in the Room
Dr. Tal Patalon MD, LLB, MBA. Founder & CEO, Medāna
Main hall
Exploring the key challenges in modern healthcare and the technological solutions reshaping it, with a focus on how AI leverages advanced data to predict and prevent disease before it develops.
11:15-12:00 🔥Fireside Chat - Are We Doomed? Leadership, Software, and Survival in the Age of AI
Zohar Levkovitz & TBD
Main hall
12:00-13:00 Lunch

13:00-13:30 Designers in the loop: The 2026 State of AI in UX/UI
Gil Ayalon, CTO MonkeyTech (CodeValue Group)
Builders Track
13:00-13:30 The Agentic Era: Microservices, Reimagined?
Issac Goldstand, Field CTO-Google Cloud, CloudEx (CodeValue Group)
Architecture Track
As we enter the "Agentic Era" of software engineering, we are replacing traditional programming languages with natural language and replacing deterministic flow control with non-deterministic LLMs... But are we throwing away a decade of architectural best practices?
13:00-13:30 Learning to Fly (and Land) with AI Coding Agents
Eyal Reginiano, Head of R&D , Liacom/CodeValue
Cyber Track
New technology. Uncharted airspace.
In this high-energy session, we reveal how AI coding assistants can be hacked, misled, and abused… and what it really takes to secure them.
You’ll walk away knowing the 3 core risks in AI development and with a clear map for navigating them safely.
13:30-14:00 Micro-tasks, Sub-Agents and Super Repos - How to use Claude code effectively with microservice architecture
Ilya Holtz, Team Lead, CodeValue & Galia Bahir, SW Engineer, CodeValue
Builders Track
13:30-14:00 Software Engineering 2.0: AI-Driven - Back to the Future
Amir Zuker, Chief Architect, CodeValue
Architecture Track
Software Engineering is Dead, Long Live Software Engineering!
Coding and other hard skills can be automated with AI, now what? Evidently, as development accelerates and AI gains more and more autonomy, a new challenge emerges: how to maintain control, quality, and alignment when software is produced at an unprecedented scale.
In this talk, we explore what “Software Engineering 2.0” really means. Drawing on real-world experience, we revisit how core engineering principles meet this AI-driven era, and get technical on HOW to really do it.
You’ll gain practical insights and actionable guidelines that will help you harness AI effectively, operate agentic coding tools properly, and keep quality in check.

14:50-15:20 Inside Claude Code: What Anthropic’s Own Codebase Teaches Us About Building AI Agents
Shay Friedman, CTO, CodeValue & Alex Suprun, Senior SW Engineering, CodeValue
Architecture Track
Claude Code ships as a deceptively simple CLI - but its codebase reveals deliberate design choices that challenge how most teams build AI applications today. In this 45-minute session, we’ll walk through the patterns that actually matter: how the agent loop is structured, how tools are designed and exposed to the model, how context and state are managed without elaborate RAG pipelines, and why the team consistently chose minimal abstractions over frameworks. We’ll extract concrete lessons you can apply to your own AI tools and agentic systems - what to imitate, what to question, and what to skip.

Where did each one excel - and fail?
Did the predictions match reality?
We’ll present:
-
the top agents across all challenges
-
the top participants
-
the most surprising outcomes
And most importantly: What this tells us about AI agents today - beyond demos and assumptions.
