📕 Agenda
17:30 Open doors & introductions
18:00 Talks start 🗣️
19:30 Networking with food & drinks1️⃣ Real-Time Kafka Visualisation in Grafana
In this talk, we’ll introduce the Kafka Data Source plugin we developed for Grafana, which enables users to query and visualise Kafka topic data directly in their dashboards—without the need for intermediate storage or external services. We'll share how the idea came about, how we collaborated with the Grafana community and developers to bring it to life, and the challenges we faced along the way. We'll also discuss our vision for the plugin’s future and its role in the evolving observability landscape.
🎙️Hamed Karbasi, Senior Data Engineer @ 0+X
Hamed is a data engineer at 0+X, focused on large-scale distributed systems and data pipelines. Most recently at Snapp!, he scaled the event-driven infrastructure, redesigned the data warehouse, and optimized pipelines for greater availability and scalability. A passionate open-source contributor, he actively works on Grafana and Kubernetes on GitHub, and shares insights via Medium and YouTube.2️⃣ GrafanaBand: A MIDI streaming data source
At Grafana Labs we host multiple internal hackathons every year. A lot of these projects eventually end up in our products. Others don’t. This talk will cover one of the latter; a streaming data source in Grafana which enables you to play MIDI-piano. We will talk about what MIDI is, some useful visualizations and how to create your own streaming data source.
🎙️ Tobias Skarhed, Software Engineer @ Grafana Labs.
Tobias has worked on Grafana’s frontend, focusing on things such as the Grafana UI library, accessibility, and performance. More recently, the focus has shifted to Enterprise features.🏢 Location
