The Data Engineering Summit (DES) has quickly become India’s definitive forum for professionals who build and scale modern data systems. Held in Bengaluru, the summit gathers over 1,000 data engineers, architects, and technology leaders for two days of knowledge sharing, hands-on learning, and peer exchange.

Unlike broad AI or analytics conferences, DES focuses sharply on the backbone of AI-driven enterprises: data infrastructure. Sessions dive into DataOps, real-time streaming, generative AI pipelines, and resilient data platforms—practical topics that directly impact how organizations scale insights and innovation.

The agenda is designed to balance high-level vision with technical detail. Attendees hear from industry leaders about best practices for building secure, reliable data foundations, while also engaging in deep technical talks on cloud-native architectures, low-latency systems, and governance.

DES also emphasizes community and networking. With its mix of workshops, solution showcases, and panel discussions, the summit provides professionals with the opportunity to learn not only from speakers but also from one another. Vendors and startups showcase tools and frameworks, while enterprises share case studies of real-world adoption.

In an era where AI initiatives succeed or fail based on the strength of underlying data systems, DES offers a timely platform to sharpen skills, evaluate solutions, and understand emerging industry standards. For data engineers and leaders, it’s not just another event—it’s the place where the next chapter of India’s data ecosystem is being built.
