b.telligent on tour in Europe’s capital – for the first time, b.telligent will take part in the Spark Summit Europe 2016 in Brussels. The three-day conference is all about Apache Spark, the framework for cluster computing which was developed in the course of a research project at the AMPLab University of California. Apache Spark has since become established as recognized big data technology and, according to a few experts, could also evolve into a leading new big data technology alongside Hadoop. Thus, be there from 25 to 27 October, when 1,200+ analysts, scientists and users meet at the three-day summit in order to discuss the latest trends, develop a deeper understanding of the up-and-coming technology and engage in networking. The setting for the event is the Square in the center of Brussels. The building constructed for the world exhibition 1958 is thus the ideal location for an innovative and exciting event.
