##Perks for submitting proposals:
Submitting a proposal, especially with our process, is hard work. We appreciate your effort.
We offer one conference ticket at discounted price to each proposer, and a t-shirt.
We only accept one speaker per talk. This is non-negotiable. Workshops may have more than one instructor.
In case of proposals where more than one person has been mentioned as collaborator, we offer the discounted ticket and t-shirt only to the person with who the editorial team corresponded directly during the evaluation process.
##Format:
The Fifth Elephant is a two-day conference with two tracks on each day. Track details will be announced with a draft schedule in February 2018.

To summarize, we do not accept talks that gloss over details or try to deliver high-level knowledge without covering depth. Talks have to be backed with real insights and experiences for the content to be useful to participants.
##Passes and honorarium for speakers:
We pay an honorarium of Rs. 3,000 to each speaker and workshop instructor at the end of their talk/workshop. Confirmed speakers and instructors also get a pass to the conference and networking dinner. We do not provide free passes for speakers’ colleagues and spouses.
##Travel grants for outstation speakers:
Travel grants are available for international and domestic speakers. We evaluate each case on its merits, giving preference to women, people of non-binary gender, and Africans. If you require a grant, request it when you submit your proposal in the field where you add your location. The Fifth Elephant is funded through ticket purchases and sponsorships; travel grant budgets vary.
##Last date for submitting proposals is: 31 March 2018.

Apache Solr, an open source search engine project, has come a long way since its inception driving applications to have near-real time data mixed with richrelevance available to users with high availability, auto-scaling and effective failover strategy on cloud infrastructure.
Effective real-time analysis and visualization of collected and correlated data to get insights is high need for businesses. Streaming Expressions introduced in Apache Solr v 6.0 provides powerful stream language for Solrcloud. They are a suite of functions that can be combined to perform many different parallel computing tasks like aggregations, parallel relational algebra, batch processing, distributed graph traversal and related MapReduce operations and use-cases.
In Lucidworks, San Francisco California-based enterprise search technology company, we solve complex problems and implement use cases in and around search and analytics paradigm for multiple clients on huge datasets. This session will focus on challenges faced in building near-real time analytics applications on large datasets. We introduce Streaming Expressions in Apache Solr, discuss the concept and key components it is build upon. The session moves on to discuss how Streaming Expressions not only fulfills the expectations, it open doors for numerous possibilities emitting effective, valuable and meaningful analytical data with its ever growing library of functions.
