    Am Donnerstag, den 06.11.2025, findet unser nächstes Tech Meetup statt. Dieses Mal dreht sich alles um Apache Kafka – die zentrale Plattform für Event-Streaming und moderne Datenarchitekturen. Kennen wir, lieben wir?!
    Das zentrale Thema des Abends:
    Ein Überblick über die aktuellen Entwicklungen und Trends in der Kafka-Community. Wir plaudern aber auch aus dem REWE-Nähkästchen und zeigen, wie wir Kafka innerhalb der REWE Group nutzen und (hoffentlich) meistern.
    Keynote Speaker:
    Anatoly Zelenin – Trainer, Experte und Autor rund um Apache Kafka.
    Außerdem mit dabei: Patrick Wegner und Paul Puschmann, die spannende Einblicke geben, wie wir bei REWE digital mithilfe von Apache Kafka die digitale Transformation erfolgreich gestalten.
    Agenda:

    • 18:30 Uhr Open Doors

    - 19:00 Uhr Start der Tech Talks
    Im Anschluss gibt's genug Zeit für Austausch. Der oder die Letzte macht einfach das Licht aus. ;-)

    Leckeres Essen, kalte Getränke und kostenfreie Parkplätze stehen wie immer für euch bereit. Bis bald!
    PS: Wer sich vorher schon etwas aufschlauen möchte, schaut mal hier vorbei.
