Big Data Week aims to connect data enthusiasts, technologists, and professionals across the globe through a series of meetups between April 19th-28th. The idea is to build community among groups working on big data and to spur conversations about relevant topics ranging from technology to commercial use cases. With big data an increasingly hot topic, it’s becoming ever more important for data scientists, technologists, and wranglers to work together to establish best practices and build upon each others’ innovations.
