SDS 2018 - glimpses and highlights. What a great day! - Blog - Blog - data-service-alliance.ch

It's already been about a week and the SDS organising committee members are still feeling the exhaustion that stays after the completion of a grand event. What had started as a half day workshop in 2014 with less than a hundred participants and born out of the Datalab in InIT ZHAW, is now a day conference gathering around 400 people. The conference has been a flagship event of the Swiss Alliance for Data-Intensive Services (Data Service Alliance), a Switzerland wide network of Data and Service scientists and professionals, for the past 2 years with a strive to get bigger and better each year in terms of content and participation. The main conference was held on the 7th and we had a pre-conference event on Deep Learning co-organized by Fernfachhochschule (FFHS) the day before. There were 3 talks followed by an apero and thereafter the Data Service Alliance General Assembly.
