Abstract for XITE :
“Besides using Kafka as a streaming data solution, XITE decided to go further and establish company wide integration protocols. These protocols standardise micro-services communication, their integration with Business Intelligence and Data Lake systems . We will share our findings, applied patterns and thoughts about the future.”

Abstract for Gracenote Sports:
"Gracenote Sports talk about their Kafka pipeline for the Winter Olympics 2018. Powering feeds and Olympic data widgets for a broadcaster's apps and website means delivering the official results faster than their competitors and social media.
