The 22nd East-European Conference on Advances in Databases and Information Systems (ADBIS 2018) took place in Budapest, Hungary, during September 2-5, 2018. The ADBIS series of conferences aims at providing a forum for the dissemination of research accomplishments and at promoting interaction and collaboration between the database and information systems research communities from Central and East European countries and the rest of the world. The ADBIS conferences provide an international platform for the presentation of research on database theory, development of advanced DBMS technologies, and their advanced applications. As such, ADBIS has created a tradition with editions held in St. Petersburg (1997), Poznan (1998), Maribor (1999), Prague (2000), Vilnius (2001), Bratislava (2002), Dresden (2003), Budapest (2004), Tallinn (2005), Thessaloniki (2006), Varna (2007), Pori (2008), Riga (2009), Novi Sad (2010), Vienna (2011), Poznan (2012), Genova (2013), Ohrid (2014), Poitiers (2015), Prague (2016), and Nicosia (2017). The conferences are initiated and supervised by an international Steering Committee consisting of representatives from Armenia, Austria, Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Cyprus, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Israel, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, FYR Macedonia, Poland, Russia, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, and the Ukraine.
