Presentations

Unveiling Kafka and Streaming

Kafka has captured mindshare in the data records streaming market, and in this presentation, we knock on its door and see what lies behind. What is the draw? What makes it an attractive addition? How does it compare to Message Queues and other message streaming services?

More Functional in Java with JavaSlang

Java 8 is pretty great, but mix in JavaSlang (now called Vavr) and get ready for some functional programming excitement.

Java Serialization for Big Data

Serialization is important for anything Big Data. We need to send information over the wire and we need to do so efficiently. This core concept presentation covers various serialization techniques and libraries. That way you can use Akka, Kafka, Spark, and various MQs efficiently

The Java Sessions: Reactive API

Many have already seen what Reactive Streaming can do: RXJava, Akka Streams, Project Reactor. Now reactive streaming is a part of the canonical package for Java and now we can handle asynchronous pipelines with boundaries and make better well thought out applications

RestFUL Web Services using Akka/HTTP

This session we discuss Akka/HTTP which wraps around the Akka's actor systems and Akka reactive streams to create scalable and resilient RestFUL web services.
