##Theme and format
The Fifth Elephant 2017 is a four-track conference on:
The Fifth Elephant is a conference for practitioners, by practitioners.
Talk submissions are now closed.
You must submit the following details along with your proposal, or within 10 days of submission:
##About the conference
This year is the sixth edition of The Fifth Elephant. The conference is a renowned gathering of data scientists, programmers, analysts, researchers, and technologists working in the areas of data mining, analytics, machine learning and deep learning from different domains.
We invite proposals for the following sessions, with a clear focus on the big picture and insights that participants can apply in their work:
##Selection Process
We will notify you if we move your proposal to the next round or reject it. A speaker is NOT confirmed for a slot unless we explicitly mention so in an email or over any other medium of communication.
Selected speakers must participate in one or two rounds of rehearsals before the conference. This is mandatory and helps you to prepare well for the conference.
There is only one speaker per session. Entry is free for selected speakers.
##Travel grants
Partial or full grants, covering travel and accomodation are made available to speakers delivering full sessions (40 minutes) and workshops. Grants are limited, and are given in the order of preference to students, women, persons of non-binary genders, and speakers from Asia and Africa.
##Commitment to Open Source
We believe in open source as the binding force of our community. If you are describing a codebase for developers to work with, we’d like for it to be available under a permissive open source licence. If your software is commercially licensed or available under a combination of commercial and restrictive open source licences (such as the various forms of the GPL), you should consider picking up a sponsorship. We recognise that there are valid reasons for commercial licensing, but ask that you support the conference in return for giving you an audience. Your session will be marked on the schedule as a “sponsored session”.

Is your job running slower than usual? Do you want to make sense from the thousands of Hadoop & Spark metrics? Do you want to monitor the performance of your flow, get alerts and auto tune them? These are the common questions every Hadoop user asks but there is not a single solution that addresses it. We at Linkedin faced lots of such issues and have built a simple self serve tool for the hadoop users called Dr. Elephant.
Dr. Elephant, which is already open sourced, is a performance monitoring and tuning tool for Hadoop and Spark. It tries to improve the developer productivity and cluster efficiency by making it easier to tune jobs. Since its open source, it has been adopted by multiple organizations and followed with a lot of interest in the Hadoop and Spark community.
In this talk, we will discuss about Dr. Elephant and outline our efforts to expand the scope of Dr. Elephant to be a comprehensive monitoring, debugging and tuning tool for Hadoop and Spark applications. We will talk about how Dr. Elephant performs exception analysis, give clear and specific suggestions on tuning, tracking metrics and monitoring their historical trends.
Phase 1: Introduction to Dr. Elephant. How and why it all started?
Phase 2: This section will cover how Dr. Elephant helps in quickly and easily optimizing Big data applications, saving millions of dollars for the company. I will also talk about the open source activities and initiatives around Dr. Elephant.
Phase 3: I will talk about our efforts to expand the scope of Dr. Elephant to be a comprehensive monitoring, debugging and tuning tool for Hadoop and Spark applications.
Akshay Rai is an engineer at Linkedin working with the Grid team. He is also the lead engineer for the open sourced Dr. Elephant project by Linkedin. He has been working on solutions to improve the developer productivity and building systems to monitor Big Data applications in real time.
