Our modern society has moved to a culture of immediacy. The most successful organizations embrace this new reality and are utilizing data in new ways to inform decisions and communications. Data is the currency that separates success from failure, whether that’s providing personalized recommendations for products and services, automatically routing requests to the best available agent, pushing the latest information to security professionals and people in the field when they need it, and lots more. 

This year’s Data in Motion conference in Washington, D.C., on March 30, is focused on helping organizations succeed in the data streaming era. To launch into this new era of data in motion, we’ll look at how we got here. We’ll examine the creation of Apache Kafka®, the open source distributed event streaming platform capable of handling trillions of events a day in use across industry and government, and detail how organizations should evolve their use of Kafka to meet the need for speed. 

The event will feature:
