IN-PERSON! Apache Kafka® Meetup - Mars 2026
IN-PERSON! Apache Kafka® Meetup - Mars 2026
Rejoignez-nous pour une rencontre Apache Kafka® le mercredi 18 mars à partir de 18h00, organisée par meshIQ et SHAPES Studio! **Les présentations seront en français.** **📍Lieu** SHAPES Studio 92 Rue René Boulanger 75010 Paris **🗓 Programme** * 18h00 : Ouverture des portes/Accueil, Boissons * 18h30 - 19:20h : Gilles Philippart, Software Practice Lead, Confluent * 19:20h - 20h10 : JB Onofré, Ingénieur logiciel principal, Dremio + Directeur de la fondation Apache * 20:10h - 20h30 : Restauration, Questions-réponses supplémentaires, Networking **💡 Intervenant 1 :** Gilles Philippart, Software Practice Lead, Confluent **Discussion :** Streaming into Iceberg: Kafka Connect vs Flink vs Tableflow **Résumé :** Getting streaming data into Iceberg tables sounds simple—until you hit schema evolution, upserts and deletes, small file problems, and commit contention. In this talk, I’ll walk through the real-world challenges of streaming ingestion into Iceberg and compare three common approaches: Kafka Connect, Flink’s Iceberg sink, and Confluent Tableflow. **Biographie :** Gilles works at Confluent as a Software Practice Lead and has over twenty years of experience in the financial sector, primarily developing systems for investment banks. In recent times, he served as a Principal Engineer at a FinTech company, where he built a platform that offers loans to small and medium businesses in the blink of an eye. Through this work, he became a proponent of event-driven architectures with Apache Kafka and is now passionate about guiding others to leverage its advantages. Outside of work, Gilles enjoys reading books, whipping up culinary delights, and playing games with his daughter and wife. **💡 Intervenant 2 :** JB Onofré, Ingénieur logiciel principal, Dremio + Directeur de la fondation Apache **Discussion :** From Legacy Queues to Modern Tables: Bridging ActiveMQ, Kafka, and Apache Iceberg **Résumé :** Modern data platforms rarely start with a blank slate. Organizations often face the challenge of unifying "classic" messaging systems like **Apache ActiveMQ** with high-throughput streams like **Apache Kafka** to feed a unified analytical layer. In this session, we explore how to build a robust ingestion pipeline that captures events from diverse sources and commits them into **Apache Iceberg**. We will dive into: * **The Bridge:** Strategies for migrating or mirroring data from JMS-based ActiveMQ to Kafka. * **The Sink:** Using Kafka Connect and Iceberg’s native capabilities to handle schema evolution and ACID transactions. * **The Payoff:** How this architecture enables "time-travel" queries and high-performance analytics on streaming data without the "small-files" headache. **Biographie :** JB est directeur de la fondation Apache. Il est membre de plus de 20 projets Apache et également mentor sur de nombreux podlings. Il est aussi en charge de l'équiipe OSPO chez Dremio. \*\*\* AVERTISSEMENT Nous ne pouvons pas accueillir les personnes de moins de 18 ans.

Retrouvez-nous pour une édition exceptionnelle chez Apple ! 🙌 Une pièce d'identité sera demandée, utilisez votre nom complet pour vous inscrire, pas de pseudo ! Au programme (les talks seront en français) : \* Claire Sivadier - Who let the App intents out ? 🐾 Who says you need to open an app to use it? With App Intents, I tracked walks with my puppy 🐶 without taking out my iPhone. Learn how to extend your app beyond the UI using Siri, Shortcuts, Spotlight, and widgets hands-free, in pure Swift. \* Sebastien Stormacq - Swift, Serverside, Serverless Swift developers can build full-stack apps purely in Swift with frameworks like Vapor or Hummingbird, but often resort to Node.js/Python/Java due to outdated perceptions. This talk celebrates 100% Swift across frontend (SwiftUI) and backend via AWS Lambda serverless: no server management, instant scaling, pay-per-use. Through live coding, we'll deploy an unmodified Hummingbird app and then build a native Swift Lambda functions for production endpoints. \* Florent Morin - ClearSurgery: From zero to worldwide leader of spatial computing in operation room Since day one, we’ve trusted Apple Vision Pro as the ideal platform to bring spatial computing into the operating room. We began with Swift on visionOS, expanded to embedded Swift, built tools across macOS, iPadOS, and iOS, and completed the stack with a Swift server. Every layer was optimized and accelerated with AI: the perfect partner for Swift. Today, we lead spatial computing in the operating room. This isn’t a vision. It’s reality in production.

Build-a-blockbuster - An improv Show in English
Build-a-blockbuster - An improv Show in English
It's cinema... without a script. Each night, the audience's ideas inspire four brand-new "films," performed live on stage. From epic fantasy to wacky westerns and painfully awkward rom-coms... you suggest it, the actors bring it to life! After every round, the audience votes one story off the reel until only one survives... the blockbuster of the night! Fast, funny, and unpredictable, this improv show turns movie magic into comedy mayhem. The chaos is brought to you by Foreign Exchanged, a motley crew of international improvisers from all over the world — India, the US, Russia, Colombia, Lebanon, Moldova, France and beyond — making their way through Paris, one English faux pas at a time. Come for the accents, stay for the laughter. https://www.billetreduc.com/spectacle/spectacle-d-improvisation-en-anglais-381367

From Web Forms to Web Components - Burton Smith
From Web Forms to Web Components - Burton Smith
**Important time note:** Please plan on arriving between 5:30 and 6:00 as the elevators lock after 6 and you'll need to message us and we'll need to come get you. The building address is 4450 Bridge Park The entrance is 6620 Mooney St, Suite 400 **Abstract** Web Forms gave .NET developers a powerful abstraction for building reusable UI controls long before design systems were a thing. Web Components finally bring that same idea to the browser natively. This session explores how the Web Forms mindset translates into Custom Elements, Shadow DOM, and HTML templates. We’ll examine how Web Components enable design systems that work across frameworks, how they differ from server‑driven controls, and why they’re becoming a foundational layer for modern UI. Whether you’re maintaining legacy apps or building greenfield projects, you’ll leave with a practical understanding of how to apply familiar patterns in a modern, standards‑based way. **YouTube Link** TBA

Unity GameDev Hangout – Tools, Workflows & Open Discussion
This is a relaxed, community-driven Unity GameDev meetup. There’s no strict agenda this time — just developers getting together to talk shop, share projects, and exchange ideas. **Some topics that may come up (based on attendee interest):** • Frame Debugger & performance tooling • Addressables & additive scene workflows • Input System, localization, responsive UI • AI integration approaches • DevOps & LiveOps experiences • Full lifecycle: idea → cross-platform publishing • Favorite Asset Store tools and hidden gems • Weird Unity quirks we’ve all run into *Nothing is locked in.* Bring a project if you’d like. Bring a question. Bring a lesson learned. Or just come hang out and meet other developers. All skill levels welcome!
