VLDB is a premier annual international forum for data management and database researchers, vendors, practitioners, application developers, and users. The VLDB 2022 conference will feature research talks, tutorials, demonstrations, and workshops. It will cover issues in data management, database and information systems research, since they are the technological cornerstones of the emerging applications of the 21st century. VLDB 2022 will take place in Sydney, Australia, from September 05 to September 09, 2022. Hybrid conference: as borders reopen, we are looking forward to many people coming to Sydney to experience the unique advantages of in-person conference participation. There will be many opportunities for learning, networking and serendipitous personal meetings, as well as the delights of the Sydney and waterfront location. However, for those unable to travel, VLDB2022 will have a hybrid nature. Remote participation will be possible for authors and audience in technical sessions, and there will also be support for online networking and conversation.
