Community-run, vendor-neutral industry conference for data engineering in Australia and New Zealand (category 'vendor' = community industry conference, not a single vendor's event). Grew out of the Sydney Data Engineering Meetup (2017); originally 'DataEngConfAU' / 'DataEngBytes' at dataengconf.com.au (now redirects to dataengbytes.com; old social handles @dataengconfau). 2020 and 2021 were online; in person from 2022 as one-day city events (Melbourne and Sydney 2022; Perth, Sydney, Brisbane, Melbourne 2023; Sydney, Perth, Melbourne, Auckland 2024), two-day flagship events in Melbourne and Sydney in 2025, four cities in 2026 and a six-city tour (adding Adelaide) announced for 2027. Each city event is a separate edition (id_suffix = city). Organiser accounts are the conference's own.
