Kafka Immersion

Kafka is a “must know.” It is the data backplane of the modern microservice architecture. It's now being used as the first persistence layer of microservices and for most data aggregation jobs. As such, Kafka has become an essential product in the microservice and big data world.

This training is a three day intensive training. We will not only discuss what it is. We will discuss programming Producers and Consumers. We then discuss Kafka Streams and using KSQLDB to query information from Kafka. We will also discuss managing schemas with schema registry. We will also discuss how to perform database and MQ integration with Kafka Connect. We close by discussing some other tools available to integrate with Kafka, and some administration tips.
