Apache Kafka: Everything you need to know!
Presented by Women Who Code London
Apache Kafka: Everything you need to know!
Adriana Zenck Zimmermann, Senior Software Engineer, Personio
In this talk I am going to discuss one of the most important pieces of software in the world of data processing and messaging - Apache Kafka. As the volume of data produced by modern applications continues to grow at an unprecedented pace, there is a growing need for efficient and scalable messaging systems that can handle the load.
Apache Kafka is a distributed streaming platform that was designed to solve some of the most pressing challenges of modern data processing. It provides a high-throughput, low-latency, fault-tolerant way to handle real-time data feeds, making it an essential tool for businesses and organisations of all sizes.
Over the course of this talk, we will explore some of the fundamental concepts behind Apache Kafka and how it can help you build robust, scalable, and efficient data processing systems. We will cover topics such as message brokers, topics, partitions, producers, consumers, and much more.
So get ready to dive deep into the world of Apache Kafka fundamentals.
