I'm happy to announce that we'll have our very first Bay Area meetup [1] on Wednesday, May 24, hosted by the fine folks at Hortonworks.
Abstract: The world of big data involves an ever changing field of players. Much as SQL stands as a lingua franca for declarative data analysis, Apache Beam aims to provide a portable standard for expressing robust, massive scale, out-of-order data processing pipelines in a variety of languages across a variety of platforms. Come see how this vision has been realized in the first stable release of Apache Beam and discuss the challenges which lie ahead.
