💡 Presentation 1 : Jay Kreps - CEO and co-founder of Confluent, original co-creator of Apache Kafka®

Interactive Q&A with the Kafka co-creator and confluent CEO (in english)
A 30 min Q/A sessions to ask questions to Jay
We will start with discussion about why Kafka, why Confluent was created, evolution of Kafka and data streaming, open source and communities… and then we will switch to question from the public

Bio : Jay Kreps is CEO and co-founder of Confluent. Prior to Confluent he was the lead architect for data and infrastructure at Linkedin. He is the initial developer of several open source projects, including Apache Kafka.

💡 Presentation 2 : Ilyas Toumlilt - SRE @ Criteo

Safeguarding Our Kafka Kingdom: A Journey into Authentication and Authorisation
We will share Criteo's journey of integrating authentication and authorisation into our Kafka infrastructure, a significant leap we took after years of operating without them. We will delve into how we successfully incorporated our Criteo's existing OAuth and JWT authentication systems into Kafka, enhancing the security of our data streams.
While the subject might seem technical and complex, we promise an engaging narrative filled with both our victories and challenges. We will recount our integration and deployment war stories, the obstacles we overcame, and the lessons we learned along the way. This talk is not just about the destination but the journey, the transformation that took place as we navigated the intricate maze of transforming a “full open” Kafka infra into a safeguarded platform.
Our aim is to keep this presentation fun and easy to follow, avoiding deep technical jargon. Sharing our journey with the community.

Bio : Ilyas works at Criteo as Site Reliability Engineer, in the Stream-Processing Platform team. He’s interested about large scale distributed systems design and efficiency, he previously built Concordant & AntidoteDB open-source databases during his PhD.
