DATACON is the Microsoft data-platform track/conference (Azure SQL, SQL Server, Microsoft Fabric, Power BI, data warehousing, Cosmos DB, governance) run by Tech Conferences LLC together with two co-located sister conferences at the same venue and dates: TechCon 365 (Microsoft 365: Teams, SharePoint, Copilot) and PWRCON (Power Platform). One pass covers all three, with two workshop days followed by three conference days and a shared sponsor expo; Microsoft was title sponsor in 2025. This series records only the DATACON part: speakers are those on the DATACON schedule (2025) or tagged DATACON in the combined schedule (2026); prices are the shared passes. Seattle editions: 23-27 June 2025 and 24-28 August 2026, Seattle Convention Center. The organizer also runs the combined events in other cities (Dallas, Atlanta; next combined TechCon/DATACON/PWRCON: Atlanta, 13-17 Sep 2027), which are not recorded here. Social accounts are the organizer's (TechCon 365).
