We are looking for talks and workshops from academics and practitioners who are in the business of making sense of data, big and small.
This track is about general, novel, fundamental, and advanced techniques for making sense of data and driving decisions from data. This could encompass applications of the following ML paradigms:
Across various data modalities including multi-variate, text, speech, time series, images, video, transactions, etc.
This track is about tools and processes for collecting, indexing, and processing vast amounts of data. The theme includes:
HasGeek believes in open source as the binding force of our community. If you are describing a codebase for developers to work with, we’d like it to be available under a permissive open source license. If your software is commercially licensed or available under a combination of commercial and restrictive open source licenses (such as the various forms of the GPL), please consider picking up a sponsorship. We recognize that there are valid reasons for commercial licensing, but ask that you support us in return for giving you an audience. Your session will be marked on the schedule as a sponsored session.
If you are interested in conducting a hands-on session on any of the topics falling under the themes of the two tracks described above, please submit a proposal under the workshops section. We also need you to tell us about your past experience in teaching and/or conducting workshops.

This talk focus on fitment of ZooKeeper for various use cases. Attendees will learn how effectively use ZooKeeper in the distributed clusters.
Apache ZooKeeper is a popular system for coordinating clusters of servers. It is a component that enables the implementation of a number of important tasks for coordination, such as master election, group membership, locks. While it is hard to define precisely what ZooKeeper is good for, it is not hard to identify use cases in which it is not a good fit. For example, it shouldn’t be used for bulk data, file systems and traditional databases are much better in such cases. In this presentation, I discuss typical use cases of ZooKeeper and some other cases in which it is not a good option.
