Kafka Streams is a client-side library designed for building applications and microservices that process data within the Kafka messaging system. Traditionally, Apache Kafka has relied on external systems like Apache Spark or Apache Storm for data processing between producers and consumers. By integrating the Kafka Streams API directly into an application, data can be processed efficiently within Kafka, eliminating the need to send it to a separate cluster. In this instructor-led, live training, participants will learn how to integrate Kafka Streams into Java applications that handle data streaming to and from Apache Kafka. By the end of this training, participants will be able to: - Understand the features and advantages of Kafka Streams over other stream processing frameworks. - Process stream data directly within a Kafka cluster. - Develop a Java or Scala application or microservice that integrates with Kafka and Kafka Streams. - Write concise code to transform input Kafka topics into output Kafka topics. - Build, package, and deploy the application. **Audience** - Developers **Format of the Course** - Part lecture, part discussion, exercises, and extensive hands-on practice **Notes** - To request a customized training for government or other organizations, please contact us to arrange.
