How many Kafka Summits should there be in a year? Experts disagree. Some say there should be one giant event where everybody gathers at once. Some say there should be one once a month in different regions of the world. Others say you should live every day like it’s Kafka Summit.
As you may know, we have adopted a happy medium: three Summits in 2019.
Three! I still think that’s a lot. Anyway, let me remind you of the dates and places:
And each one has its own news associated with it.
First, the call for papers for Kafka Summit San Francisco is now open. This is year number four for our flagship event in San Francisco and will be our largest Kafka Summit to date. If that sounds like a place you’d like to speak, please step right up and send us your best abstracts. Even if you don’t want to speak, Kafka Summit has still emerged as the best place to learn more about Apache Kafka®, event streaming architectures and generally what kinds of problems people are solving in the community today.
If you want to speak at Summit but are new to the speaking game, listen carefully: We want you to speak here. To help you along the submission process, the Confluent Developer Advocate Team is holding online office hours where you can come ask any Summit-related question you want. Overall, this time is focused on helping you craft a strong submission, providing a space for you to bounce ideas off of the developer advocates and providing a place for you to ask whatever else you want to know about speaking at Summit. To take part, join the #summit-office-hours channel in our Slack community at one of these two times:
Speaking of all those Summits we agreed to hold, the agenda for London is now public! The Program Committee had a tough job with so many quality submissions (seriously), but we fought our way through it, and the agenda is now live. As you’ll see, we have a terrific lineup of speakers, including the following sessions, which I am particularly excited about:
And holding down our keynote sessions in London will be our own Jay Kreps, streaming thought leader Martin Kleppmann and Sky Group Distribution Platform Engineering Leader Keith Davidson.
Check out the full London agenda for more.
Clearly, there’s a lot to look forward to—and Kafka Summit London will be twice as big as it was in 2018!
And we are now just six weeks away from Kafka Summit New York. This is a one-day event at Pier 60, and thanks to the ministrations of the Summit Program Committee, this Summit also has a great lineup. Every Kafka Summit thus far has sold out, so it would be reasonable to expect this one to as well. Register soon!
Kafka Summits always come paired with Kafka training. In New York, we have several things to offer:
Having said all of that, there are two things you can do today:
I really hope to see you at one of these events. If event streaming matters to you, they are not to be missed. See you at the Summit!
