Rakuten Technology Conference 2015

What is TechConf?

What’s Rakuten Technology Conference?

It’s a technology conference that Rakuten Engineers voluntarily plan and

operate by themselves. This year marks the eighth anniversary which we

have been hosting with your continuing support since 2007.

We have a internal study session named “Rakuten Tech Talk” twice or three

times per month.

This internal community works as the core team to drive Tech Conference.

From Rakuten Tech Talk to Tech Conference

We began with presenting the inside story of Rakuten’s

development & technology in 2007, originally.

We’ve set aside sessions for external speakers, open source community

(Ruby, PHP, Linux, etc.) and engineer community. Emerging technologies

have been picked (Hadoop, MongoDB, NoSQL, Redis, Spark, Jenkins, etc).

GlobalizationGlobalization has been a big topic since 2011 in TechConf.

We’ve picked topics, for instance, global engineers performing all over the

world, or actual official language’s effort, in the keynote speech, each session

and panel discussion.

Plus,

we changed official

language to English in 2012.

Official Language

Topics

Topics are not limited to the specific areas.

Inviting external speakers,

we’ve covered a broad range of topics.

Lightning TalksWe’ve provided a slot of lightning talks,

where a variety of presenters take turn

delivering presentation within 4 minutes.

It has gained popularity and good reviews.

RIT, our research institute shares

the newest researches.

This year we’ll present WallSHOP,

a CEATEC Award winner!
