Walk through Confluent Developer’s Apache Kafka® 101 course LIVE

Hello Streamers!

This event is part of the Confluent Developer LIVE series: This means that the event is a real-time run through of a Confluent Developer course exercise, by a professional trainer.

And of course, as with all Confluent Community Events, it is free, purely technical, and educational.

So, join us on Monday, May 9th at 1:00pm EDT for this free hands-on training with a walkthrough exercise from the Apache Kafka 101 course on Confluent Developer.

This walkthrough will require Confluent Cloud, but will cost you nothing (you won’t even have to input your credit card). We will walk you through the signup process, but if you want to get prepared, you can join Confluent Cloud now and make the most of our promo code (CC60COMM) for new and current Cloud users!!

Title:
Apache Kafka 101

Abstract:
Apache Kafka is an event streaming platform used to collect, process, store, and integrate data at scale. It has numerous use cases including distributed logging, stream processing, data integration, and pub/sub messaging.

In order to make complete sense of what Kafka does, we'll delve into what an "event streaming platform" is and how it works. So before delving into Kafka architecture or its core components, let's discuss what an event is. This will help explain how Kafka stores events, how to get events in and out of the system, and how to analyze event streams.

Bio:
Mukta Kachhara is a senior technical instructor at Confluent. She also work as course champion for Confluent Stream processing using Apache Kafka Streams and ksqlDB. She has many years of experience working on distributed trader voice communication systems.
