Data Streaming Technology Overview

We are thrilled to have Dan Lynn from CodeFutures present on in-depth overview of the current state of Data Streaming Technologies! This overview will include an in-depth technical review of technology options including Storm, Spark, Kafka, AgilData, RabbitMQ, and others. Streaming data solutions have been rapidly developing into a more sophisticated part of the enterprise architecture. Dan will sort through when to apply data streaming versus batch, and how they fit into modern data warehouses and transactional systems. Dan’s unique and successful background in automating data governance and message queuing systems promises to make this a session you do not want to miss. Come out and learn how these technologies can be applied in your organization!

About the presentation

This presentation will include a technical deep dive into Data Streaming Technologies to include Apache Storm, Apache Samza, Apache Spark, LinkedIN Databus, AgilData, Hailstorm, RabbitMQ and Apache Kafka among others. The review of each technology will include how it works, when to use it, skills required to implement and support, benefits, technical debt and risks. Additionally, common implementation issues will be addressed to include when to use data streaming, when to use batch, delivery guarantees, and semantics. This will be taken from the perspective of use for both the modern data warehouse and for transactional systems.
