About the Data Pipelines Group:

There are tons of Vancouver companies tackling distributed systems and data pipelines as they scale their businesses so we thought it was time the community came together to share what they've learned along the way and maybe pick up a few new tricks from others too. We hope this event will be an opportunity to bring folks together around the data. Want to speak at one of our upcoming events? Get in touch!
