Introducing Data Streaming Summit 2024

Data streaming is a rapidly evolving technology that is revolutionizing how businesses leverage real-time data. Innovations in data streaming platforms and stream processing are continuously emerging. In today’s data-driven world, the integration of data streaming technologies like Pulsar and Kafka with AI presents endless opportunities. Notably, Apache Pulsar has evolved from a single-protocol platform to a multi-protocol one, showcasing its extensibility. In addition, businesses often utilize multiple technologies in their data streaming journeys. Hence, we feel that a data streaming conference shouldn’t be limited to one technology itself.

With these advancements in mind, I'm excited to announce a significant upgrade to the Pulsar Summit: introducing the Data Streaming Summit. This event will be held on October 28-29, 2024, at the Grand Hyatt SFO. The Data Streaming Summit aims to be the premier conference for all things data streaming, including Pulsar, Kafka, Kafka-compatible, Flink, Spark, and many other innovative technologies. It will be a gathering place for developers, architects, and technical executives to connect with peers in a broad data streaming community beyond just Pulsar or Kafka.

Our theme this year is "DataStreaming + AI", and we are seeking innovative, informative, and thought-provoking presentations. The Call for Papers (CFP) is now open, and the event has a growing list of sponsors. We invite you to submit talks in the following areas:

**📖 Learning Data Streaming (Pulsar or Kafka):** Are you passionate about teaching? Present an entry-level talk introducing data streaming with Pulsar or Kafka, highlighting key features and best practices. Help beginners embark on their data streaming journey.

**🔍 Deep Dive into Data Streaming (Pulsar or Kafka):** Are you a vendor building Kafka-compatible technologies or a committer of Pulsar or Kafka? Share your deep technical insights, including inner workings, optimization techniques, or advanced features.

**✨ Data Streaming Use Cases:** Have you adopted Pulsar, Kafka, or Kafka-compatible technologies for your data streaming projects? Share your experiences and use cases with the data streaming community.

**🤖 Data Streaming + AI:** Discuss how you're leveraging data streaming technologies with AI to solve real-world problems. Whether it's real-time AI models, AI-driven anomaly detection, or optimizing data processing with machine learning, your journey can inspire others.

**🐿 Stream Processing and Ecosystem:** Share your experiences with stream processing technologies like Apache Flink, Apache Spark, Risingwave, or any other tools that enhance your data streams. If you're building innovative tools for Pulsar or Kafka, we also want to hear about your work.

Join us by submitting your talks and become part of a vibrant community of experts, developers, and thought leaders who are shaping the future of DataStreaming and AI.

I look forward to seeing you all in San Francisco!
