Events and Conferences

There is a lot of interest in Hadoop, in the academic as well as the open source and business communities, which makes for a busy conference schedule.

Key Events and groups

• ApacheCon - Main get-togethers for developers of all Apache projects, not just Hadoop-related. Frequently also include code hackathons.
