Scala Days, the premier Scala Conference, will be held this year at bcc in Berlin on June 15th through 17th, 2016, starting with two days of training on June 13th and 14th at Ramada Berlin Alexanderplatz. There will also be a Scala Days US in New York on May 9th through 13th, 2016.
The conference will bring together developers from all corners of the world to share their experiences and new ideas around creating applications with Scala and related technologies, like Akka and Play Framework. Scala Days provides a unique opportunity for Scala users to interact with the contributors to the language and related technologies and connect with fellow developers.
Last year’s conferences in San Fancisco and Amsterdam were sold-out events! Leaders from Scala User Groups and communities around the globe, students and language contributors, will gather to discuss academic research, use-cases and visionary projects for a two day, action-packed event.

Want to get the most out of Scala Days Berlin? Register for an in-person training course before the Scala Days conference. All trainings are two-day trainings and will take place Monday and Tuesday June 13-14, 2016. The courses are designed for developers of all levels of proficiency with the Lightbend Reactive Platform.
All trainings will take place at:
Ramada Berlin Alexanderplatz
Karl Liebknecht Strasse 32,
Berlin, 10178 DE
Advanced Scala and Akka in Practice Training Workshops are SOLD OUT. Please contact [email protected] if you want to be on the waiting list for one of these training courses
This course is designed to give experienced developers the know-how to confidently start programming in Scala. The course ensures you will have a solid understanding of the fundamentals of the language, the tooling and the development process as well as a good appreciation of the more advanced features. If you already have Scala programming experience, then this course could be a useful refresher, yet no previous knowledge of Scala is assumed.
Objectives
After having participated in this course you should:
Audience
Application developers wishing to learn Scala
Prerequisites
Students taking this course should have:
To complete the exercises in this course, students need to install the following before class:
Trainer: Dr. Andreas Schröder
Andreas is a Lightbend certified instructor for Fast Track to Scala, and works at codecentric AG as IT consultant. He holds a Dr. rer. nat. in computer science from Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität Munich. After doing some more research in post-doc, he decided to enter the trenches of the software development industry. He specializes in continuous delivery, devops, and (last but not least) functional programming.
When working on client projects, he enjoys championing clean code and functional principles - bringing back the fun, enthusiasm and sanity to software development teams. For the last year, he has been working on microservice architectures written in Scala with Play and Akka, and microservice infrastructures based on Amazon AWS.
In his academic past, Andreas has written over 30 scientific publications with over 280 citations on automated code refactoring, software engineering of service-oriented architectures and collaborating ensembles, internet of things, and constraint-based query language semantics.
This two-day course is designed to teach developers how to implement data processing pipelines and analytics using Apache Spark. Developers will use hands-on exercises to learn the Spark Core, SQL/DataFrame, Streaming, and MLlib (machine learning) APIs. Developers will also learn about Spark internals and tips for improving application performance. Additional coverage includes integration with Mesos, Hadoop, and Reactive frameworks like Akka.
Objectives
After having participated in this course you should:
Audience
Developers wishing to learn how to write data-centric applications using Spark.
Prerequisite
Setup Requirements
Please contact [email protected] if you want to be on the waiting list for this training course
If you already have programming experience with Scala and want to understand its advanced features, this course is for you. It is designed to help developers fully understand topics such as advanced object-functional programming, the power of Scala's type system, implicits, etc. The course also covers how to leverage these features to create well-designed libraries or DSL's utilizing proven best practices.
Please contact [email protected] if you want to be on the waiting list for this training course
Akka in Practice is a two-day course to teach experienced developers how to use Akka to build real-world applications. This course not only covers the features provided by the core Akka library, but also introduces Akka Streams and Akka HTTP, two new modules which are extremely important for interacting with an Akka based system. As we strongly believe that the most efficient and lasting way of learning is learning by doing, Akka in Practice has a strong focus on hands-on exercises which are used to build an Akka based web application step by step.
