Accumulo Summit 2018 will be held on October 15th of 2018 in Columbia, Maryland. Accumulo Summit 2018 is the fifth edition of the annual event that serves as the focal meeting point for the Apache Accumulo® community. The last four annuals were highly successful, having a sold-out audience of over 150 attendees each.

Accumulo, originally developed at the National Security Agency, is a high performance NoSQL database with cell-level security controls. After being open sourced in late 2011, Accumulo became a top-level project at the Apache Foundation in the spring of 2012 and is currently being used throughout the Federal Covernment and by various private sector companies.

There are multiple breakout tracks to accommodate attendees of different levels of experience. The sessions are right with technical content about current Accumulo projects and are beneficial in learning about real world applications of Accumulo. Prospective attendees, speakers, and sponsors are urged to sign up to the Accumulo Summit website to stay abreast of updates on registration.
