The Database Guide for Spark+AI Summit 2018

Spark+AI Conference is in San Francisco June 4-6. It’s the preeminent conference covering all things Spark. Since 2013 the conference has helped developers learn and explore the possibilities of delivering modern data-driven applications at scale. The overarching theme of this years show is the unification of data and AI. New applications that include AI require massive amounts of constantly changing data, and Apache Spark is at the center of this data processing opportunity.

Sessions of particular interest include Spark Streaming case studies along with operationalizing Spark for production:
