• Community - see below for more detailed description
• Workshops - any content relevant to Airflow  (2-3 hours)

Community-related talks

Following the Apache Software Foundation's "Community over code" motto - there will also be all kinds of non-coding and diverse skilled members of the community who do not necessarily code but contribute to the overall health and strength of the community - this will be a great chance to meet them and see some of the talks. If you have a subject that you would like to submit in that area - you are more than welcome!

Expected attendees

Our attendees will be a healthy mixture of:

•  Data Scientists
•  Data Engineers
•  Business Intelligence Analysts
•  DevOps Engineers using and running the Apache Airflow
•  "to be" users of Apache Airflow - who consider moving from other workflow engines or simply introduce one in their daily job
•  Users and developers of products that are built on top of Apache Airflow
•  Members of other communities that Apache Airflow Community partners with and collaborates
•  Non-coding members of the Apache Airflow Community who help the community to thrive
