Learn how to index, search and summarize Big Data. Learn how to empower employees, inform managers, and reach out to customers.

The tangible benefits of Big Data analytics are well known. You likely understand the “why” of Big Data. Big Data TechCon isn’t a “why” conference. It’s the HOW-TO conference for Big Data. Practical tutorials. Technical classes. Big Data TechCon is technology-agnostic. The tutorials and classes apply to Big Data in your data center or in the cloud, from hosted environments to your own servers. The sessions apply to relational databases, NoSQL databases, unstructured data, flat files and data feeds.

The faculty have real-world experience that you can tap into, whether you use Java, C++, .NET or JavaScript; whether you like MySQL, SQL Server, DB2 or Oracle; whether you love or hate Hadoop; and whether you are looking at dozens of terabytes or hundreds of petabytes.
