ML/AI & IOT need Fast Data Frameworks to run: Learn About Fast Data at Scale

Randy, our keynote speaker, has decades of experience coding extremely high-scale systems (at petabyte scale). His last venture was acquired by FireEye, a premiere cybersecurity company. Randy is first and foremost a coder. He's going to tell you about coding patterns that work in production. And he's going to tell you about the reality of building an AI startup. You're going to have a chance to ask him questions.

STATELESS KUBERNETES. If you're excited about Kubernetes, come and learn about running stateless services in Kubernetes! We're going to show how to use Google Cloud Platform to decouple stateful stores from stateless actors in Kubernetes.

ROBOTS. While you are there, tour UVA’s Link Lab and check out all things cyber-physical - including robotic surgery and self driving cars!

CITY TECH. We are thrilled to present Josh Yates, founder of Thriving Cities Group, a non-profit asking: can technology be used for the common good? Thriving Cities is on the forefront of using technology to power social change in cities for the common good. This talk is about retaining our humanity in the age of information.
