Title:
Streaming ETL with Apache Kafka and KSQL

Abstract:

In this talk, we'll see how easy it is to capture a stream of data changes in real-time from a database such as MySQL into Kafka using the Kafka Connect framework and then use KSQL to filter, aggregate and join it to other data, and finally stream the results from Kafka out into multiple targets such as Elasticsearch and MySQL. All of this can be accomplished without a single line of Java code!
