Next Generation Cassandra Conference

The 2017 Next-Generation Cassandra Conference (NGCC) will be held on Tuesday, 26 September, 2017 at the Geekdom Events Center in San Antonio, Texas. The NGCC is a conference primarily for Apache Cassandra developers and large-scale cluster operators. It will consist of a single track of presentations covering the current state of project development, including newly or soon-to-be released features, as well as ideas for future development. While this event is aimed at Cassandra contributors and power-users, it is open to anyone interested in the Cassandra community.

Call for Presentations

The organizers have allotted a number of slots for 30-40 minute presentations, including an hour of 5-minute "lightning" presentations. If you would like to participate by giving a presentation, please complete this questionnaire. Presentations will be selected by a committee formed from the Apache Cassandra PMC.

Presentations will be recorded and posted for those who are unable to attend.
