Abstract:
Congratulations, you may have put the real-time data into Kafka. Surely you can use Kafka API to consume it programmatically, but can you imagine running SQL directly on Kafka topics, even to build real-time dashboards and alerts without coding? In this talk, Gang and Jove from Timeplus will share various ways to run SQL on Kafka: Kafka Streams, ksqlDB, Flink, presto, materialize, and Timeplus. We will also share the use cases for building real-time monitoring and alerts with SQL on Kafka.
