What actually happens when you listen to the community and respond to their wishes?

You rearrange a Meetup agenda several times. :)

After we started with the desire for #Azure #Databricks and got Ken to be a speaker, things have evolved.

Now Databricks is involved as a company itself and we also got our loyal community member Carsten as a speaker.

And we also got a panel discussion organized.

In other words, everything is different and it will be great! So if you haven’t signed up yet, we still have a few spots available for this cool Meetup in #hamburg.
