Session 1: It's All in the Presentation of Data
Summary: DBAs usually collect a lot of data and present it in a tabular format, but management and users like and understand visual representation of data better. The tabular format does not make the impact or get the attention you desire. Attend this session to see how easily you can convert those tabular formats to pictures using the free and open source Google Charts. Google Charts is a pure JavaScript-based charting library to enhance web applications by adding interactive charting capability. This session includes two demos and is geared for DBAs, architects, and sysadmins who present data to end users or management.
Session 2: Let's Talk AI, ML, and DL

If the job involves making a decision based on a pattern or data analysis (radiology, for example), you can be sure that such a position will undergo a drastic transformation soon. Uber completed 10 billion rides in 2018, almost doubling the number of trips from 2017 to 2018. AI is used everywhere possible in Uber. Uber has changed your life and impacted millions of taxi drivers.
