The deadline for Proposals has expired.
The fourth data2day conference is to be held in Heidelberg, Germany, on September 26 to 28, 2017. The event will focus on the whole range of topics associated with Big Data, Data Science, and Machine Learning. It aims to present fundamental knowledge as well as experiences from practical work and informs bout the most important theories, tools, and technologies.
Three partners in the field of computing/IT have teamed up to host the conference: heise Developer, the online channel for software development; dpunkt.verlag, publisher of reference books for the professional computing scene; and iX, the magazine for professional information technology. The hosts invite you to submit your proposals on one or more of the following topics until May 2nd, 2017:
Concepts and Implementations
- Smart Data: intelligent creation of value for Big Data
- Fast Data: design and setup technologies needed to extract data in a fast and efficient way
- Secure Data: methods and strategies to protect business data, strategies for cases of emergency
- Blueprints for Big Data architectures
- Data Hubs/Data Lakes
- Visualization
- Distinctions between classica Data Warehousing and new approaches
- Internet of Things (IoT)
- Data protection and other legal aspects
- Adjusted and new job descriptions
Tools
- Apache Hadoop and its ecosystem, distributions and other platforms, frameworks, and tools for analysis of structured and unstructured measured data
- Technologies for full-text and real-time search
- Established programming languages for analyzing, processing and transfering data, query languages
- NoSQL and NewSQL Stores
- In-Memory databases
- In-Memory-Computation Grids
- Event-Processing systems
- Content Delivery Networks
