Keynote: Apache Kafka, Stream Processing...
Abstract: Microservices are rightfully associated with REST, but a lot of what a company does isn't easily modeled by a blocking request and response. What is the right way to build this type of asynchronous service? This talk will make the case for Apache Kafka as a platform for event-drive apps. It will show the relationship between this type of service and the emerging paradigm of stream processing, and will introduce Kafka Streams, a powerful distributed stream processing client that is part of Apache Kafka.
