JConf Guatemala is the biggest Java conference in Central America, since 2011 we've constructed an exchange hub for software developers, architects, and enthusiasts around Java technologies in Guatemala.

This year will be hosted at Guatemala City on November 15, being a conference by and for the developer community.

Call For papers will be open from June 24 to September 12.
Acceptance or Rejection notes will be sent on September 20.

IMPORTANT:

The Guatemala Java Users group (GuateJUG) is pleased to invite all the people interested in sharing knowledge with talks and workshops for beginners and senior developers.

Do you have something interesting to share with the community? Innovations made with Java?, Java success stories?. We and the JConf Attendees wanna know about you.

We've divided the conference in different tracks, being:

• Java Platform
  Any topic related with the JVM as development platform including, Java Core, certifications, JVM internals, Java language, OpenJDK.
  
  
• Alternative languages

  Considering the Java Virtual Machine as a polyglot execution environment, this space is specially designed for presentations related with GraalVM, Scala, Kotlin, Groovy, JavaScript and beyond.
  
  

• Server side development

  Our most popular track. Main track focus is presentations about Java as enterprise development platform. Java EE, Spring, Akka, Spark, Kafka, MicroProfile, RxJava, etc. Every Java framework, library and standard is welcome.
  
  

• Client side development

  Interested in client side development?, all presentations related with JavaFX, HTML5+CSS+JS, Krazo, Vaadin, JSF, UI/UX, go here.
  
  

• Small and not so small Java

  SmartCards, Java Embedded, iOT, Java Me, Java TV, Android, Arduino, Raspberry Pi and related activities. Java was born here.
  
  

• Big (data with) Java

  We recognize the importance of the JVM in the Data Engineering space, hence this year we will be receiving proposals for topics like Kafka, Hadoop, Spark, Beam, Storm. It doesn't matter if you execute your queries with Scala, Java, Pig, Python, R, in the end all roads converge to the JVM.
  
  

• Tools, Architecture and Strategies

  There is no wizard without a magic wand. This section includes all technologies and strategies to improve Java code quality. IDEs, CI/CD, DevOps, Docker, Kubernetes, Blockchain, Hyperledger, and any other buzzword.

By historical reasons, JConf is a free for all, 110% community event. Hence we reserve the right to accept presentation with the only objective to promote a commercial product. We also have sponsorship opportunities that could fit better for this.

The speaker declares that presentation will be created in a "shareable" format with a proper license (we suggest CC-BY-SA 3.0 GT).

There is no limit for proposals per speaker.

Thank you again for contributing with the Java World!
