AI Agents on Kafka - A sneak peek into agents working with Confluent MCP

This session would start with an introduction to Apache Kafka and how a data streaming platform is built.

Then MCP(Model Context Protocol) would be introduced to the audience as a mean to solve enterprise grade agentic integrations challenges using a standard protocol.
After that Confluent-MCP along with Kafka and Flink tools would be explored using AI Agents (Claude Desktop, LangGraph and Strands).
Finally, AI Agent workflow patterns would be discussed and steps would be explored on how businesses can deploy production grade AI agents.
