SolidarityConf, the most supportive technological event

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]We are going through very difficult times and there are many people who need us to bring out our most caring side. From here comes SolidarityConf, an annual technological event that was born at a difficult time to demonstrate that thinking about others is a small gesture that can mean a lot.

The 2021 edition will be held on 15 April (from 15:00 to 21:00 CEST) and it will be online. This year, the collection of tickets will go, entirely, to the Spanish Federation of Food Banks (FESBAL). Donations range from 5 to 20 euros, and you decide how much you want to contribute to this cause. Just sign up for the event and enjoy the talks, as well as helping those who need it most.

Unai Zorrilla, Luis Fraile and Luis Ruiz Pavón have been in charge of organizing such a beautiful initiative, in addition to seeking a formative value with sessions so interesting that they will address very varied topics: Power BI, .Net, Power Virtual Agents, Big Data, Artificial Intelligence…

What you will learn in this session:

• How a serverless application is developed in AWS.
• How to access other services beyond Lambda
• How to use MiddyNet to minimize the code needed to access those services.

However, one day you realize that you have to face not dozens, but many hundreds or even more than a billion records, and everything you had learned so far is not worth.

During this trip we have discovered tools like Spark, Databricks, Data lake, we have squeezed Sql to get the best, and above all, we have lived many tests and errors.

Dall-E is able to generate images from text. In this meeting we will talk about which models are used and we will see some of the examples that allow us to create different images combining unrelated concepts. Would you be able to create a sardine-shaped wallet? Difficult, isn’t it? If you want to see what Dall-E would do, you can’t miss this session!
