🎬🎬 This project is accepting submissions on topics that generally fall under the bucket of The Fifth Elephant, such as:

  1. Data engineering
  2. Data governance
  3. Machine Learning - conceptual application in different domains
  4. Artificial Intelligence - other than GenAI. If you have a submission on Open Source AI, add it here.
  5. AI research applications in organizations/domains

💭💭💭 You can submit an idea for speaking on any of the following topics:

  • Designing data pipelines
  • Data lakes
  • Experimentation - defining and tracking metrics
  • Experience reports of emerging technologies in data engineering
  • Use of ML and AI in fraud detection
  • MLOps
  • LLM-Ops
  • ML in fintech
  • ML in e-commerce and quick commerce
  • ML in supply chain and logistics
  • ML in fashion
  • Managing meta data
  • Global Risk Compliance (GRC)
  • Big data in enterprises - security and risk management

Many data product companies are implementing this deployment architecture of control plane plus data plane (Eg: https://docs.databricks.com/en/getting-started/overview.html). Would be nice to see how companies are approaching it and how customers are adopting it. This might fit into both Rootconf and Fifth El
Workflow management using Temporal - https://temporal.io/. This is an up and coming piece of software and the associated company is getting traction. I vaguely heard they’re setting up shop in Bangalore but not sure. I can name a couple of companies in Bangalore who’ve adopted it if you want. This might also fit into both Rootconf and Fifth El.

☑️ General guidelines for submissions ☑️

We appreciate that many participants create submissions out of a genuine desire to share knowledge with our community, and to contribute in a meaningful way. However, many written submissions fail to capture the attention of reviewers. More often than not this is because the content of the submission does not explain what they intend to communicate with sufficient clarity or detail.

BEFORE you begin writing your submission, please give some thought to the following:

  1. Who is the audience for your session? Think about their interests, work roles, challenges, age or experience as you decide this.
  2. What problem/pain are you trying to solve (for the audience)? This should be something that is communicated clearly so that they have a sense of your submission’s importance.
  3. What will be the scope of your submission? This will help identify the central topic or theme and should describe key areas you plan to cover.
  4. How will participants benefit? Think of practical and specific ways in which the audience will be able to apply the knowledge they gain, beyond just general awareness.
  5. What is the appropriate format for your submission, given the audience and objectives that you have in mind? Is it better suited as a blog post, a talk, a workshop, demo, etc?

🗣️ Use the above template as a guideline, while ensuring that it is in your own unique and authentic voice. 🗣️

The most successful submissions are those where individuals are able to abstract an actionable insight from a common pain area, enlighten the audience about something new, provide a fresh perspective, and/or demonstrate innovation. 💯💯💯

Here’s a guide to prepare your slides.

✔️ All submissions made here will be reviewed by (practitising) reviewers via online and offline meetings. Reviewers will give feedback on the novelty and validity of the ideas proposed.
