Apache: Big Data gathers together the Apache projects, people and technologies working in Big Data, ubiquitous computing and data engineering and science to educate, collaborate and connect in a completely project-neutral environment. It is the only event that brings together the full suite of Big Data open source projects. Dozens of leading Big Data solutions are developed under the auspices of The Apache Software Foundation (ASF). The ASF and The Linux Foundation have joined forces to produce Apache: Big Data to bring the power of these projects together under one roof where where project code committers and developers can collaborate with users to accelerate adoption and the state of the art. Apache: Big Data will cover the issues, technologies, techniques and best practices that are shaping the data ecosystem across a wide range of industries including finance, business, manufacturing, government and academia, media, energy and retail.

Smart companies realize that to gain a competitive advantage they must influence and learn directly from the open source maintainers, developers and IT managers who are steering the projects being used to create today s most innovative commercial products and services. Linux Foundation events are the only place where the world s leading maintainers, developers and practitioners across all of the most important open source software projects meet. From the enterprise to networking, embedded, IoT and cloud infrastructure, among others, Linux Foundation events are the best place to identify software trends early and inform future technology investments. They re also the ripest recruiting grounds in today s technology landscape. Visibility within the open source community is one of the best ways to advance your open source development work through connection with sophisticated users who are evaluating and buying the next generation of infrastructure, big data or cloud technology. If you want to influence, learn from or recruit these maintainers and developers, or reach the IT managers, cloud architects, network architects, infrastructure managers or administrators, Linux Foundation events are a mustattend and must sponsor.
