Hello, Igniters! It’s been a busy September for us here in the Apache Ignite 
community. We’ve been preparing for the In-Memory Computing Summit North 
America 2018 happening Oct. 2-3 in San Francisco. I’ll have details on some 
Ignite sessions below.

Meantime, our conference preparations haven’t slowed us down! Our intrepid 
Apache Ignite technology evangelist Akmal Chaudhri has been on the road as part 
of a European Big Data Meetup roadshow – his stops to date: Copenhagen, 
Hamburg, Berlin, Frankfurt, Vienna, Munich,  Zurich, Paris, Amsterdam and 
London. And this week, he'll be speaking in Oslo.

Let’s take a look at some upcoming events for this week (and details on in 
In-Memory Computing Summit North America afterwards. If you are in the San 
Francisco Bay Area and would like to attend the conference, I have 3 free 
passes available if you use promo code “TomVIP” during checkout).
