Join us for the 3rd annual VeloxCon!

Data processing is a core component of various modern applications ranging from business intelligence to AI/ML technologies. Velox is an open-source unified execution engine that aims to commoditize data processing in these applications. Velox can accelerate AI/ML workloads and popular open-source data platforms using advanced vectorization techniques, adaptive and encoding-aware execution, and modern hardware capabilities.

Join us to hear from key engineers developing Velox and its integrations with large-scale AI/ML platforms, popular open-source compute engines for analytical workloads, such as Presto and Spark (through the Prestissimo and Gluten projects), stream processing, and more.

This year, VeloxCon will focus on the use of Velox in different AI/ML workloads, and highlight new developments in hardware-accelerated data processing.

Why attend VeloxCon?

You’ll hear from leaders in the data management space who will discuss topics including:

  • How Velox is enabling innovation in the AI/ML space
  • How you can optimize data-processing systems using Velox
  • Price-performance gains organizations are seeing with Velox
  • New additions to Velox
  • The Velox technical roadmap
  • How to get involved in the Velox project
