> Shay Banon November 20, 2014 > > It’s been a little over two years since we formed a company around > Elasticsearch, and the engagement with our community, users, and customers > has taken on a life of its own. There are now 90 meetup groups > <http://elasticsearch.meetup.com/> around the globe, hundreds of > conferences featuring our products, and a growing list of events where our > own developers engage audiences in the Elasticsearch story. It’s clear we > hit a nerve. > > Over and over, we kept hearing one question: “When will Elasticsearch get > a conference of its own?” We listened, and I am happy to announce the first > Elasticsearch conference, Elastic{ON}15 <http://www.elasticon.com/>, is > happening March 9 through 11, 2015 in San Francisco, California. > > The conference details are unfolding as we speak, but there are a few > things we already have planned that I want to share with you. > > First, Elastic{ON}15 will be centered around Elasticsearch > <http://www.elasticsearch.com/products/elasticsearch/> and the ecosystem > of products surrounding it, including Apache Lucene, Kibana > <http://www.elasticsearch.com/products/kibana/>, Logstash > <http://www.elasticsearch.com/products/logstash/>, the various client > libraries > <http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/en/elasticsearch/client/community/current/clients.html> > , Elasticsearch for Apache Hadoop > <http://www.elasticsearch.com/products/hadoop/>,Marvel > <http://www.elasticsearch.com/products/marvel/>, and Shield > <http://www.elasticsearch.com/products/shield/>. > > Part of what makes Elasticsearch tick is the close communication we have > with our users. To that extent, we’re doing a few things to make sure the > conference is run the same way. > > What does this mean for you? It means that *all* the developers at our > company (that’s right, every single one of them) will be attending the > conference — and they want to hear from you. Elastic{ON}15 will feature a > dedicated track that gives you a unique opportunity to talk with our > engineers about all the work they currently do and plan to do. Afterwards, > we’re coordinating an Elasticsearch dev all hands meeting where we’ll > discuss your feedback and apply it to future products and events. > > The second aspect of the conference is hearing you, the user, speak about > how you use our platform. I am lucky enough to be able to travel the world > and talk to users and customers frequently, and am continuously amazed by > how our products are being put to use. We plan to create a platform for our > users, customers, and contributors in the community to talk about their use > cases and successes. Elastic{ON}15 will be a great way to meet and talk > with other users in your space and share knowledge. Please, if you’re > interested, don’t hesitate to submit to speak > <http://www.elasticon.com/apex/Elastic_ON_Speak> at the conference. > > We will also have a hands-on track with our developers, who will go > through some high-level overviews and technical deep dives of our various > products. Or you can drop by our “Agents of Elasticsearch” station to ask > any questions that are on your mind. > > Bottom line: Elastic{ON}15 is all about you! And obviously, we plan to > have a lot of fun while we’re together. > > I am super excited about the conference, and I hope you are as well. I > would love to personally welcome each and every one of you to join us; it’s > going to be great. (And make sure to sign up > <http://www.elasticon.com/apex/Elastic_ON_Signup> to save your spot – my > events team keeps reminding me that registration will fill up fast!) > (Sent on behalf of the Elasticsearch Team) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.
