Community-run data & AI conference in Nashville, Tennessee, at Belmont University (hosted by the Belmont Data Collaborative): a Friday of full-day workshops plus a Saturday of sessions in four tracks (data analytics, data engineering, data management/DBA, data science/GenAI, career). '100% community ran with no vendor affiliation'. Editions: March 2024 (launch, 450+ attendees, sold out), March 2026 and March 2027; no 2025 edition (the site lists only 2024 and 2026 as past conferences and calls 2027 'the third year'). Organizers listed in 2024 included Cameron Cyr, Dustin Dorsey, Ed Pearson, Glenn Acree, Kevin Kline, Sekou Tyler and Tim Claytor; the 2026 site names TechFed Nashville as the facilitating nonprofit. The organizing team overlaps the Nashville SQL Server community (SQLSaturday Nashville last ran in 2020, #933), but no source calls DataTune a SQLSaturday successor, so it is recorded as its own series. No conference social accounts found.
