Below is what to expect from the Streaming Track. Also, be sure to check out Felix&rsquo;s full podcast interview on our </span><a href="https://feathercast.apache.org/2019/08/14/apachecon-qa-with-machine-learning-track-leader-felix-cheung/"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: #1155cc; background-color: transparent; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; text-decoration-line: underline; text-decoration-skip-ink: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Streaming Track Feathercast.</span></a><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; background-color: transparent; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">&nbsp; Plus, find the full series of ApacheCon Q&amp;As and Feathercasts interviews with Felix and other track leaders below along with helpful links..</span></p>

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.8; margin-top: 12pt; margin-bottom: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; background-color: transparent; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">A: The Streaming Track is going to involve a mix of powered by Apache projects, use cases and innovations around event sourcing, interactive query, and streaming SQL. What&rsquo;s interesting about this track is that we received an overwhelming response from the community in terms of submitting streaming-related speaking proposals.</span></p>
<p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.8; margin-top: 12pt; margin-bottom: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; background-color: transparent; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">We decided to have this as a dedicated track so that we can focus on the many interesting learning uses cases. There will be a lot of interesting presentations on different projects like Kafka as well as newer projects</span></p>
<p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.8; margin-top: 12pt; margin-bottom: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; background-color: transparent; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">&nbsp;Q: What can attendees look forward to at this track?</span></p>
<p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.8; margin-top: 12pt; margin-bottom: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; background-color: transparent; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">A: The Streaming Track provides great ways to learn about trends, newer developments and innovations. Companies will be interested in learning more about Interactive Query and Streaming SQL developments.</span></p>
<p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.8; margin-top: 12pt; margin-bottom: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; background-color: transparent; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The Streaming SQL presentation will address the entire topic and examine how to resolve relationships between streaming data and syntax extension in regards to carrying data that comes along within stream processing. We will have Kenneth Knowles and very knowledgeable people from different companies presenting this information about this space, including Julian Hyde.</span></p>
<p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.8; margin-top: 12pt; margin-bottom: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; background-color: transparent; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Meeting and talking to project leads and committers in person is another valuable benefit to attending the track. By asking questions and learning, attendees can find themselves working with these projects as well.&nbsp;</span></p>
