When you push that code, you’re not just releasing software—you’re putting your reputation on the line. Are you proud of what’s going out the door? @Chris Wallander from @Taxwell throws down a challenge: Quality isn’t just for the QA team—it’s on all of us. Whether you're coding, testing, or managing, if you see something off, speak up. Silence doesn’t fix bugs. But here’s the real question: Is your team talking about quality? And if not, what’s stopping them?

This is a one-minute video showing an animated architectural diagram of an integration between Amazon DynamoDB and Confluent Cloud using Kinesis Data Streams and the Kinesis Data Streams connector. It’s a fully managed and serverless solution that reduces operational complexity and leverages scalability and cost-effectiveness.

What does the rise of data streaming mean for software and data professionals? A once-in-a-generation paradigm shift is giving rise to a brand new role: the Data Streaming Engineer. Come hear from your fellow technologists how this new role is bringing together the work of application developers, data engineers, data scientists, and architects, and how it might describe the work you're already doing. Along the way, we'll get a survey of the current state of the technologies underlying the emerging Data Streaming Platform, and how you can prepare to use them in the coming year.
