The meetups by Wix Engineering focus on deep technical insights, whether it’s front-end, back-end, mobile, testing, or anything in between.

This time, alongside Confluent, we’ve got two great talks on Kafka and Scaling. Join Confluent’s Tim Berglund and Wix’s Natan Silnitsky for a deeper look at Scaling and growth challenges, microservices, architecture, traffic, and more.

18:00 - 18:50 - Kafka based Global Data Mesh at Wix / Natan Silnitsky

// Kafka-based Global Data Mesh at Wix-Natan Silnitsky

As your organization rapidly grows in scale, so does the number of challenges you face.
The growing scale comes in multiple dimensions - traffic, geographic presence, products portfolio, various technologies, number of developers, etc.
Coming up with an architecture that can handle all of the data flows in a universal, simple way is key.
This talk is about Wix's Kafka-based global data architecture and platform.
How we made it very easy for 2,000 Wix microservices to publish and subscribe to data, no matter where they are deployed in the world, or what technology stack they use.
All the while offering various tools and features to help adapt to the growing scale and insuring high resilience.

Natan Silnitsky is a backend-infra team lead @Wix.com.
He leads the Data streaming team in charge of building event-driven libraries and tools on top of Kafka and ZIO. Before that, he was part of a task force that was responsible for building the next-generation CI system at Wix on top of Google's Bazel build tool. Has many years of experience as a developer of large-scale web services - First in .Net, later in Scala. Natan's passions include clean and functional code, dev velocity, and great software design.

// What’s Past is Prologue: A Story of Event-Driven Architecture- Tim Berglund

The growth of Kafka inside an organization sometimes follows the development of the broader Kafka ecosystem over its lifetime. The initial use case may be something conceptually simple, like mainframe offload or point-to-point integration, evoking the simple Large Pipe architectures of Kafka’s infancy.
This talk traces this development, ending with a comprehensive vision of an event-driven architecture suitable for the next generation of information technology deployments. You’ll leave knowing where you need to go and how this new architectural paradigm will help you get there.
