Title:
Beyond Microservices: Streams, State, and Scalability

Abstract:
Did you ever want to understand how to properly build distributed, scalable architectures? Are you tired of having to provision full instances of your application every time you need to scale? In this talk, we will take a closer look at Apache Kafka and how easily we can implement microservice architectures utilizing the platform.
