Apache Kafka for Microservices

Apache Kafka has boomed in recent times and is continuing to gain popularity. As organizations move forward with microservice architecture, they face a new challenge - communication among microservices. Many argue Kafka is the most elegant solution. And what about Enterprise Data Integration? It's an enormous challenge for companies. While there are many solutions, this is also solved by Kafka's impeccable data steaming pipeline capabilities.

Join us as we dive into the world of Kafka. In this talk, you can expect to gain skills like:
-Using Apache Kafka in a microservice architecture
-Building event sourcing and CQRS design patterns
-Utilizing the Spring framework to build a communication channel among microservices
-Creating a real-time data streaming pipeline

All while leveraging the Kafka Producer API, Consumer API, Kafka Connect API, Kafka Stream API, Schema Registry, and KSQL. We'll see this all come together in a demo data streaming pipeline that feeds into Elasticsearch.
