4. 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.
5. 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
6. We began with presenting the inside story of Rakuten’s development & technology in 2007, originally.
7. We’ve set aside sessions for external speakers, open source community (Ruby, PHP, Linux, etc.) and agile community. Emerging technologies have been picked up (ex. Hadoop, MongoDB, NoSQL, Jenkins, etc).
8. Globalization
Globalization 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.
9. Plus,
we changed official language to English in 2012.
