Fixing Streams in Flight
Real-world war stories and battle-tested patterns for production-grade streaming pipelines.
From Kafka exactly-once nightmares and ClickHouse meltdowns at 100k+ eps, to zero-batch real-time RAG and AI agents that react in <200ms — join us for a full day of deep dives into reliability, observability, schema evolution survival, and the future of context-aware streaming with GlassFlow, Kafka, ClickHouse and beyond.
Speaker Details
Talk 01
### Speaker: Sasi Teja K
Role: OSS Community Catalyst, GlassFlow
Talk Title: Getting Your Streams Ready for Production with GlassFlow
Abstract:
Streaming data pipelines often deal with duplicates, late events, and complex transformations before data becomes analytics- or AI-ready. This talk introduces GlassFlow, an open-source processing bridge that cleans, dedupes, enriches, and joins Kafka events before landing them in ClickHouse. Learn how GlassFlow’s architecture simplifies real-time transformations, and see a live demo of integrating it into a Kafka + ClickStack environment to streamline your streaming and observability workflows.
Talk 02
### Speaker: Avinash Upadhyaya
Role: Platform Engineer, Platformatory Labs
Talk Title: Embedding Kafka at the Edge: SBCs, Dead Badgers & New Deployment Models
Abstract:
Kafka powers event-driven systems everywhere—except many edge environments, where diverse protocols, resource limits, and distributed-system constraints create unique challenges. This talk explores what Kafka at the edge should look like: new architectures, deployment models, codecs, and security considerations tailored for connected cars, factories, telco towers, POS systems, and IoT devices. Learn why current technologies fall short, what a SWaP-C-optimized Kafka could enable, and what you can start doing today to prepare your edge streaming stack.
