javaBin Online : Apache Kafka and ksqlDB in Action with Robin Moffatt

You are hereby invited to our fifth javaBin Online session with our guest Robin Moffatt!

All javaBin Online sessions are streamed over YouTube, so you can enjoy them from the comfort of your home office. Just before we start we'll post the YouTube link in the comments for this Meetup. We'll also set up https://www.java.no/online to redirect to the talk.

AGENDA

• 18:00: Welcome from javaBin
• 18:05: "Apache Kafka and ksqlDB in Action : Let’s Build a Streaming Data Pipeline!" with Robin Moffatt
• 19.00: Q&A

ABSTRACT

Kafka is a whole lot more than just a message bus! It includes stream processing and integration capabilities, and this talk will be mostly live coding to demonstrate what can be built around it, how to do it - and why to do it.

Have you ever thought that you needed to be a programmer to do stream processing and build streaming data pipelines? Think again! Apache Kafka is a distributed, scalable, and fault-tolerant streaming platform, providing low-latency pub-sub messaging coupled with native storage and stream processing capabilities. Integrating Kafka with RDBMS, NoSQL, and object stores is simple with Kafka Connect, which is part of Apache Kafka. ksqlDB is the source-available SQL streaming engine for Apache Kafka, and makes it possible to build stream processing applications at scale, written using a familiar SQL interface.

In this talk, we’ll explain the architectural reasoning for Apache Kafka and the benefits of real-time integration, and we’ll build a streaming data pipeline using nothing but our bare hands, Kafka Connect, and ksqlDB.

Gasp as we filter events in real-time! Be amazed at how we can enrich streams of data with data from RDBMS! Be astonished at the power of streaming aggregates for anomaly detection!
