Track Overview
OpenSearchCon is the annual conference that brings the OpenSearch community together to learn, connect, and collaborate. OpenSearchCon has grown from its humble beginnings as a single-track, one-day event to a two-day, multi-track open source community experience.
The tracks are divided based on specific themes and objectives, ensuring attendees can focus on topics relevant to their interests and expertise. Each track delves into different aspects of OpenSearch, ranging from foundational concepts for newcomers to advanced topics for seasoned professionals. By separating tracks, attendees can efficiently navigate the conference program and immerse themselves in topics such as Analytics + Security + Observability, Operating OpenSearch, Search, and Security Education + Community Development.
