Creating Change in the Next Technology Revolution
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
For all of the impacts of software on our lives, software and computer engineering are still relatively young and volatile fields. The current software revolution takes us to centralization of data and computing in the cloud.

In this world, software needs to be written differently - it must scale higher, provide stronger responsiveness and be able to make decisions on data in real time.

To remain competitive, companies and individuals must create fundamental change in the ways they leverage technology and adapt and adopt more and more quickly.

In this talk, we will walk through Lightbend's maturity model for the adoption of the next wave of software and explore how companies can identify and mitigate their challenges to adoption. For job seekers, we will discuss how they can assess a company's ability to adopt new technology throughout the course of their job hunt, to provide more value to their recruiters and more accurately understand what their challenges in a new role will be. We'll challenge team members to become change agents within their teams and companies.

Finally, we'll plant the seed for those entering into the big data space to see beyond the technology so that they can use their skills to make a stronger impact on the organizations they team up with.
