The first, O’Reilly’s Superstream Series, was created in lieu of in-person events to help remote workers keep their fingers on the pulse of the technology industry. Covering the most important subjects and emerging trends in technology—including software architecture, infrastructure and operations, open source, data, and AI—the live virtual events help advance application and skills development. This year’s Superstream Series attracted 53,000 registrants, up 77% from last year. Momentum is expected to continue in 2022 as O’Reilly introduces new cloud, security, and software development tracks.

The second new feature, O’Reilly Answers, is an advanced natural language processing engine that helps employees quickly find solutions to challenging technical questions across a wide range of topics within O’Reilly’s platform. This enables employees to find quick, contextually relevant answers to their questions within the flow of work. Not only does this empower users to seek out the resources they need to get work done, but it also reduces time spent searching for information, giving employees more time to focus on projects that have a real business impact.
“While learning and development may not seem top of mind among all the challenges enterprises have faced since the onset of the pandemic, it’s more important than ever to give workers the tools and insights they need to succeed in hybrid and remote working environments,” said Laura Baldwin, president at O’Reilly. “As people continue to adapt to changes in the workplace, O’Reilly is meeting learners where they are to provide unparalleled technology and business training.”
