Sarvesh Virkud, Advisory Customer Solutions Consultant, ConfluentTalk:
From Queues to Streamhouse: Building Real-Time Data Products with Kafka, Flink and IcebergAbstract:
Most data architectures still pass events through message queues and clean the data later in nightly batch jobs, so apps, analytics and AI all end up working with yesterday's data. In this session, We'll look at why a durable Kafka log beats a traditional queue (and how Queues for Kafka now gives you both), how Apache Flink lets you shift processing and governance left so data is cleaned once at the source, and how Tableflow turns Kafka topics into open Apache Iceberg or Delta Lake tables that any engine can query. We'll wrap up by tying it all together into the Streamhouse architecture.***

From Kafka Fundamentals to 22M Records: Building a Real-Time CDC PipelineAbstract:
Learning distributed streaming is best done through real production challenges. This talk demystifies Apache Kafka core principles—topics, consumer groups, offset management, and throughput tuning—by examining an actual production streaming ETL pipeline. You’ll learn how Change Data Capture (CDC) was implemented to stream 22+ million records from a NoSQL store (MongoDB) into a relational database (PostgreSQL) without overloading the primary databaseIf you would like to speak or host our next event, please let us know: community@confluent.io
