Hello everyone! Join us for an IN PERSON Apache Kafka® meetup on May 18th from 6:30pm, hosted by IMDA in Singapore! **📍 Venue:** IMDA 10 Pasir Panjang Rd, Mapletree Business City Level 5 Events Room 1&2 Singapore 117438 \*\*\* **🗓 Agenda:** * 18:30pm - 19:00pm: Food, Drinks & Networking * 19:00pm - 20:00pm: Jun Rao, Co-founder, Confluent * 20:00pm - 20:30pm: Additional Q&A / Networking \*\*\* **💡 Speaker:** Jun Rao, Co-founder, Confluent **Talk:** Queues for Kafka **Abstract:** Event streaming is great but sometimes it's easier to use a queue, especially when parallel consumption is more important than ordering. Wouldn't it be great if you had the option of consuming your data in Apache Kafka just like a message queue? For workloads where each message is an independent work item, you'd really like to be able to run as many consumers as you need, cooperating to handle the load, and to acknowledge messages one at a time as the work is completed. You might even want to be able to retry specific messages. This is much easier to achieve using a queue rather than a topic with a consumer group. KIP-932 brings queuing semantics to Apache Kafka. It introduces the concept of share groups. Share groups let your applications consume data off regular Kafka topics with per-message acknowledgement and without worrying about balancing the number of partitions and consumers. With this KIP, you can bring your queuing workloads to Apache Kafka. Come and hear about this innovative new feature being added to Apache Kafka 4.1. \*\*\* If you would like to speak or host our next event please let us know!

✨ Connect with us over a day of fun climbs and an (optional) night of dinner + board games! ✨ 🧗 What is bouldering? Bouldering is a sub-discipline of rock climbing, that is done without a harness on a lower wall, with safety pads. It involves finding the right sequence to reach the end of a route, very much like a maze or puzzle. The problem-solving, social nature of climbing has been shown to boost self-esteem and confidence, as well as reduce depression and anxiety levels. (read the relevant papers here) What to expect 👀 (Note: the event officially starts at 3pm) ‼️ If you're new to climbing, we will run you through an introduction into bouldering. 🧘 3pm - 3:30pm: Warm up & 5 mins mindfulness (optional) 🧗 3:30pm - 7pm: Climb 🎲 7pm till late: We'll have dinner over card games or go to a board game cafe (see vibes that day) What to bring?

Feeling down? Sometimes depressed? Can't focus? Negativity & stress? Recent losses? Creativity in career and personal life hindered by mental blocks? Sometimes we never fully recover from traumatic experiences. Whether it was yesterday, last week or a year ago, traumatic experiences - a loss of a loved one, losing a job, a breakup - can leave you scarred. You talk about it and feel a little better, but it never goes away. After you hang up the phone, it's still there; the sadness, the cloud, the over-thinking, the worry, the guilt. You try to focus, but you're blocked. You try to look forward into new experiences, new relationships but a cloud is hanging over you, casting a shadow on what you once considered a bright, cheerful future. What happened to your courage? Your strength of character? You're 'why not' attitude? Whoever said 'time heals' must have had a special time machine, because after weeks, months, years, you're wondering - when exactly does that kick in? Sometimes it seems like drinking or drugs are the way to go. But they wear off, and now the problem is still there with added side effects from the drugs. At this free local Meetup event we will talk about: * What causes grief, anxiety and depression to become chronic. * Is it possible to regain your joy and happiness even after traumatic experiences? * How to break away from negativity and focus on the future * What are the steps to take to get control of your mind and your emotions? Learn about a safe, gentle, do-it-yourself counseling that can be done in the comfort of your own home. Let's explore safe, effective solutions for healing from traumatic experiences. Be sure to click on the red "Attend" button below to come to the event. We look forward to seeing you there. This group is sponsored by the Dianetics & Scientology Life Improvement Center.
