📣 Call for Proposals: Share Your Iceberg Story

We’re now accepting talk submissions for Apache Iceberg Bay Area: Oct Edition, happening on October 1, 2025 at the Contemporary Jewish Museum in San Francisco.

Whether you’re operating Iceberg at scale, just shipped your first integration, or have hard-earned lessons to share—we want to hear from you.

🔍 What we’re looking for:

  • 🧊 Tip of the Iceberg – Technical Internals & Architecture: Deep dives into how Iceberg works, performance engineering, file formats, metadata layers, and internals. Perfect for advanced users and contributors.
  • ❄️ Breaking the Ice – Real-World Use Cases & War Stories. Tell us what worked—and what didn’t. We want to hear about your production rollouts, scaling challenges, and lessons learned along the way.
  • 🥃 On the Rocks – Integrations, Tools & Ecosystem. How does Iceberg fit into your stack? Talk about streaming, data lakes, compute engines, catalog systems, or open-source tooling you’ve built or used.
  • 🌐 Future Ice Age – Roadmap, Innovation & Emerging Trends. Got something new on the horizon? This is for forward-looking talks, prototypes, and ideas shaping the next phase of Iceberg and the lakehouse ecosystem.

Anything that helps others learn, build, or deploy Iceberg better.

Talks will be 20-25 minutes long plus 5-10 mins Q&A (total 30 mins), and this is a 4-track event, so we’re welcoming a range of technical depths and perspectives.
