Introduction to Storm and Kafka+Storm

In our first meetup we will have two presentations:

1. Eugene Dvorkin, architect at WebMD, will present "Introduction to Storm". What Storm is, why we care, use cases, how to code Storm components, Storm parallelism and Storm fault-tolerant features will be discussed.

2. Rob Doherty, Senior Backend Engineer at Outbrain will discuss the Kafka-Storm implementation used in production to track thousands of web traffic pings per second. He'll also describe monitoring tools developed in-house that provide insight into the Storm Topology.
