Details

Welcome:

Welcome to the upcoming Stream Processing Meetup hosted by LinkedIn in Sunnyvale. This meetup focuses on Apache Kafka, Apache Samza, and related streaming technologies.

Location: Yosemite Conference Room, LinkedIn Corporate HQ in Sunnyvale. We will be on the 2nd floor of 605 W Maude Ave, Sunnyvale, CA 94085

Agenda:

6 PM: Doors open

6-6:35 PM: Networking & Welcome

6:35-7:10 PM: Stream processing using Samza-SQL@LinkedIn (Srinivasulu Punuru, LinkedIn)

Imagine if you can develop and run a stream processing job in few minutes and Imagine if a vast majority of your organization (business analysts, Product manager, Data scientists) can do this on their own without a need for a development team.

Need for real-time insights into the big data is increasing at a rapid pace. The traditional Java-based development model of developing, deploying and managing the stream processing application is becoming a huge constraint.

With Samza SQL we can simplify application development by enabling users to create stream processing applications and get real-time insights into their business using SQL.

In this talk, we try to answer the following questions

• How can SQL language be used to perform stream processing?

• How is Samza SQL implemented - Architecture?

• How can you deploy Samza SQL in your company?

7:15-7:50 PM: Streaming data pipelines @ Slack (Ananth Packkildurai, Slack)

Slack is a communication and collaboration platform for teams. Our millions of users spend 10+ hrs connected to the service on a typical working day. They expect reliability, low latency, and extraordinarily rich client experiences across a wide variety of devices and network conditions. It is crucial for the developers to get the real-time insights on Slack operational metrics.
In this talk, I will talk about how our data platform evolves from the batch system to near real-time. I will also touch base on how Samza helps us to build low latency data pipelines & Experimentation framework.

7:55-8:30 PM: Improving Kafka at-least-once performance (Ying Zheng, Uber)

At Uber, we are seeing an increasing demand for Kafka at-least-once delivery. So far, we are running a dedicated at-least-once Kafka cluster with special settings. With a very low workload, the dedicated at-least-once cluster has been working well for more than a year. When we want to allow at-least-once producing on the regular Kafka clusters, the producing performance became a concern. We spent some effort on this issue in the recent months and managed to at-least-once producer latency by about 80% with code changes and configuration tuning. Most of these improvements also help increase Kafka throughput and reducing Kafka end-to-end latency in general, not especially for at-least-once.
