Imply, the company founded by the original creators of Apache Druid®, today announced its CTO and Co-Founder Gian Merlino will be a keynote speaker at the inaugural Current 2022, the first-ever data streaming industry event. The conference takes place October 4-5, 2022 in Austin, Texas, at the Austin Convention Center and The Fairmont Austin.

Organized by Confluent, Current 2022 is the next generation of Kafka Summit where in-person and virtual attendees can immerse themselves in all things real-time data with peers, industry analysts, expert speakers, and more. It is the definitive source to learn about data streaming and the only place where the full community of real-time technology leaders and developers will come together to share best practices and use cases as well as explore the vision and future of data streaming.

In his keynote session, titled “Welcome to the Streaming Era,” Jay Kreps, co-founder and CEO of Confluent, will be joined by Merlino and Anush Kumar, VP of technology at Expedia, to examine the emergence of data streaming as a full category that, while having Kafka at its core, has expanded into a broad and growing ecosystem of data movement and real-time technologies.
