For one thing\, streaming data is no longer seen as a speci al use case – and that’s a good thing because streaming is a better fit to the way life happens. Stream-first architectures are useful even beyo nd real-time processing. Another big idea has to do with where data liv es: the big data revolution showed us that data structures spanning more than one machine are a good thing. But a new revolution involves data s tructures that span more than one continent (geo-distribution) and that go from on-premise to cloud. \;\n \;\nIn this talk\, Ellen will te ll a few stories that show how innovation with real impact can happen\, including the shift in thinking and in engineering culture that underlie successful change. We’ll look at emerging technologies and how best to use them\, new designs in architecture\, and flexible practices such as a microservices style that have huge implications in IoT and other large -scale analytical workflows. \;\n \;\nRSVP: https://niketechtalksf eb2017.splashthat.com \;\n \;\nWe hope to see you at the event and encourage you to invite your colleagues.
