Title of Talk: Real Time Analytics with Kafka and Druid (English)

Title of Talk:
User-Friendly Kafka Monitoring

Abstract:
Monitorare un sistema che usa Kafka non è per nulla semplice, sia se ci troviamo on-premise sia se lo usiamo in cloud. Ci sono molti componenti da osservare, non solo le metriche del server ma anche le metriche che producono i client, la misura del lag e molte meno note, come ad esempio le quota.

Poter creare degli stack di monitoraggio in poco tempo e completi diventa vitale.
Grazie agli stack creati dai Solutions Architect di Confluent, che vedremo in questo talk, riuscìrete in poco tempo ad usare soluzioni di monitoraggio complete ed estendibili.
Ben sapendo che una volta definito il monitoraggio siamo forse a 1/3 dell'opera :)
