SPARKcon
SPARKcon is a showcase of creativity, talent and ideas of “The Creative Hub of the South,” the Triangle of NC.
SPARKcon was founded in 2006 by Beth and Aly Khalifa and Designbox to showcase, celebrate and influence the creative momentum of the Triangle region of North Carolina. SPARKcon uses an open-source organizational approach to empower diverse creative thinkers to be inspiring community leaders.
SPARKcon’s “creative potluck” of SPARKs or creative themes such as art, music, film, fashion, geek, circus, etc. is put together by passionate individuals who volunteer their expertise and are deeply embedded in a specific local scene. Using a combination of networking and open calls for participants, organizers create diverse and representative events to show off local talent and connect disparate creative scenes. SPARKcon grows every time a new person gets involved with a SPARK category, creating their own event, or joining in to help an existing one. It’s an open-source, “for the people, by the people” approach with an intentionally dynamic focus.
SPARKcon is a program of Visual Art Exchange, a Raleigh non-profit whose mission is to support emerging artists and connect the community to the arts.

The adage "right tool for the right job" resonates clearly across many IT infrastructures.
In this one-hour webinar William McKnight, leading information management consultant, will offer advice on an architectural approach to analytics, including reasons why organizations might be better able to achieve success with hybrid architecture.

Strata Conference + Hadoop World
The best minds in data will gather again in New York as Strata + Hadoop World returns—to learn, connect, and explore the issues and opportunities in big data. Since joining forces last year, Strata + Hadoop World is also one of the largest gatherings of the Apache Hadoop community, with emphasis on hands-on and business sessions on the Hadoop ecosystem.
Strata sells out every year. One reason for Strata's immense popularity is our speakers, who have real-world experience with exciting innovations in big data—and the desire to pass on their hard-won knowledge. Does that sound like you?
