+Tyler Akidau and I gave a [three-hour 
tutorial](http://conferences.oreilly.com/strata/hadoop-big-data-ny/public/schedule/detail/52129)
 on Apache Beam at Strata+Hadoop World 2016. We had a plethora of help from our 
TAs: Kenn Knowles, Reuven Lax, Felipe Hoffa, Slava Chernyak, and Jamie Grier. 
There were a total of 66 people that attended the session.<!--more-->

+
+If you want to take a look at the tutorial materials, we’ve put them up [on 
GitHub](https://github.com/eljefe6a/beamexample). This includes the [actual 
slides](https://github.com/eljefe6a/beamexample/blob/master/BeamTutorial/slides.pdf)
 as well as the 
[exercises](https://github.com/eljefe6a/beamexample/tree/master/BeamTutorial/src/main/java/org/apache/beam/examples/tutorial/game)
 that we covered. If you’re looking to learn a little about Beam, this is a 
good way to start. The exercises are based on an imaginary mobile game where 
data needs processing and are based on code in the [Beam examples 
directory](https://github.com/apache/incubator-beam/tree/master/examples/java8/src/main/java/org/apache/beam/examples/complete/game).
 The code has TODOs for where you need to fill in code or there are full sample 
solutions to look over our code. You can run these examples on your own machine 
or on a cluster using a runner that Beam supports.
+
+I want to share some of takeaways I had about Beam during the conference.
+
+The Data Engineers are looking to Beam as a way to 
[future-proof](https://www.oreilly.com/ideas/future-proof-and-scale-proof-your-code),
 meaning that code is portable between the various Big Data frameworks. In 
fact, many of the attendees were still on Hadoop MapReduce and looking to 
transition to a new framework. They’re realizing that continually rewriting 
code isn’t the most productive approach.
+
+Data Scientists are really interested in using Beam. They interested in having 
a single API for doing analysis instead of several different APIs. We talked 
about Beam’s progress on the Python API. If you want to take a peek, it’s 
being actively developed on a [feature 
branch](https://github.com/apache/incubator-beam/tree/python-sdk). As Beam 
matures, we’re looking to add other supported languages.
+
+We heard [loud and 
clear](https://twitter.com/jessetanderson/status/781124173108305920) from Beam 
users that great runner support is crucial to adoption. We have great Apache 
Flink support. During the conference we had some more volunteers offer their 
help on the Spark runner.
+
+On management and thought leader side, Beam went from “what’s Beam?” at 
previous conferences to “I’m interested in Beam.” or “I’ve formed an 
informed opinion on Beam.” at this conference. This is one of the metrics I 
look for in early technology adoption.
+
+<img src="{{ "/images/blog/IMG_20160927_170455.jpg" | prepend: site.baseurl 
}}" alt="So much brainpower answering questions">
+
+We rounded out the tutorial with live demonstrations of Beam running on Apache 
Spark, Apache Flink, the local runner, and DataFlow runner. Then, we brought in 
the big brainpower and had a Q and A session.
+
+If you’re attending a conference, we encourage you to look for a Beam 
session. If you want to use these materials to give your own Beam talk or 
tutorial, we’re happy to help you. In addition to this tutorial, we have 
[other presentation 
materials](beam.incubator.apache.org/learn/presentation-materials/). You can 
reach out to us on the [user mailing 
list](http://beam.incubator.apache.org/use/mailing-lists/).

alt=&quot;Exercise time&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;If you want to take a look at the tutorial materials, we’ve put 
them up &lt;a href=&quot;https://github.com/eljefe6a/beamexample&quot;&gt;on 
GitHub&lt;/a&gt;. This includes the &lt;a 
href=&quot;https://github.com/eljefe6a/beamexample/blob/master/BeamTutorial/slides.pdf&quot;&gt;actual
 slides&lt;/a&gt; as well as the &lt;a 
href=&quot;https://github.com/eljefe6a/beamexample/tree/master/BeamTutorial/src/main/java/org/apache/beam/examples/tutorial/game&quot;&gt;exercises&lt;/a&gt;
 that we covered. If you’re looking to learn a little about Beam, this is a 
good way to start. The exercises are based on an imaginary mobile game and the 
data needs processing and are based on code in the &lt;a 
href=&quot;https://github.com/apache/incubator-beam/tree/master/examples/java8/src/main/java/org/apache/beam/examples/complete/game&quot;&gt;Beam
 examples directory&lt;/a&gt;. The code has TODOs for where you need to fill in 
code or there are full sample solutions to look over our code. You
  can run these examples on your own machine.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;I want to share some of takeaways I had about Beam during the 
conference.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;The Data Engineers are looking to Beam as a way to &lt;a 
href=&quot;https://www.oreilly.com/ideas/future-proof-and-scale-proof-your-code&quot;&gt;future-proof&lt;/a&gt;,
 meaning that code is portable between the various Big Data frameworks. In 
fact, many of the attendees were still on Hadoop MapReduce and looking to 
transition to a new framework. They’re realizing that continually rewriting 
code isn’t the most productive approach.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Data Scientists are really interested in using Beam. They interested 
in having a single API for doing analysis instead of several different APIs. We 
talked about Beam’s progress on the Python API. If you want to take a peek, 
it’s being actively developed on a &lt;a 
href=&quot;https://github.com/apache/incubator-beam/tree/python-sdk&quot;&gt;feature
 branch&lt;/a&gt;. As Beam matures, we’re looking to add other supported 
languages.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;We heard &lt;a 
href=&quot;https://twitter.com/jessetanderson/status/781124173108305920&quot;&gt;loud
 and clear&lt;/a&gt; from Beam users that great runner support is crucial to 
adoption. We have great Apache Flink support. During the conference we had some 
more volunteers offer their help on the Spark runner.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;On management and thought leader side, Beam went from “what’s 
Beam?” at previous conferences to “I’m interested in Beam.” or 
“I’ve formed an informed opinion on Beam.” at this conference. This is 
one of the metrics I look for in early technology adoption.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;/images/blog/IMG_20160927_170455.jpg&quot; 
alt=&quot;So much brainpower answering questions&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;We rounded out the tutorial with live demonstrations of Beam running 
on Apache Spark, Apache Flink, the local runner, and DataFlow runner. Then, we 
brought in the big brainpower and had a Q and A session.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;If you’re attending a conference, we encourage you to look for a 
Beam session. If you want to use these materials to give your own Beam talk, 
we’re happy to help you. You can reach out to us on the &lt;a
