For a limited number of applicants Apache does offer travel assistance for
ApacheCon and Apache BigData, see [1] for details. But as the Dataworks Summit
is hosted by Hortonworks, the Apache assistance doesn't apply. Hortonworks
does not offer any travel assistance, though registration to the conference is
free if your talk is accepted.
