Apache Kafka® has become the de facto technology for real-time event streaming. Confluent Platform, developed by the creators of Apache Kafka, is an event-streaming platform that enables the ingest and processing of massive amounts of data in real time.
In this session, we will cover the easiest ways to start developing event-driven applications with Apache Kafka using Confluent Platform. We will also demo a contextual event-driven application built using our ecosystem of connectors, REST proxy, and a variety of native clients.
Watch now to learn:
- How to create Apache Kafka topics in minutes and process event streams in real time
- Check the health of an Apache Kafka broker using Confluent Control Center
- The latest enhancements to Confluent Platform that make it easier to run Apache Kafka at scale
- How to use KSQL, streaming SQL for Apache Kafka, to process event streams in real time using simple SQL queries
