Join us for a meetup on December 10th to explore Kafka. Thank you to The Foster Atlanta for providing space!

Agenda:

6-630pm Network and Eat/Drink

630-730pm Kafka Talk

730-8pm Q&A, Open Discussions and Networking

Talk Summary: Kafka provides the low latency, high throughput, high availability, and scale that these applications require. But can it also provide complete reliability? As a system architect, when asked “Can you guarantee that we will always get every transaction,” you want to be able to say “Yes” with total confidence.

In this session, we will go over everything that happens to a message – from producer

to consumer, and pinpoint all the places where data can be lost – if you are not careful. You will learn how developers and operation teams can work together to build a bulletproof data pipeline with Kafka. We'll also review what's new in the 0.9.0 release.

Speaker: Jeff Holoman is a systems engineer at Cloudera. Jeff is a Kafka contributor and has focused on helping customers with large scale Hadoop deployments, primarily in Financial Services. Prior to his time at Cloudera, Jeff worked as an application developer, system administrator, and Oracle technology specialist. http://photos1.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/d/9/9/5/600_444055701.jpeg
