Apache Kafka stands as a distributed streaming platform and has become the de facto standard for developing data pipelines. It addresses a wide array of data processing use cases, serving effectively as a message queue, distributed log, stream processor, and more.

The course begins by exploring the theoretical foundations of data pipelines, followed by an in-depth look at the core concepts underlying Kafka. Additionally, we will examine critical components such as Kafka Streams and Kafka Connect.

In this instructor-led, live training in Turkey (onsite or remote), participants will learn how to set up and integrate various Stream Processing frameworks with existing big data storage systems, related software applications, and microservices.

Upon completion of this training, participants will be able to:

• Install and configure different Stream Processing frameworks, such as Spark Streaming and Kafka Streaming.
• Understand and select the most suitable framework for specific requirements.
• Process data continuously, concurrently, and on a record-by-record basis.
• Integrate Stream Processing solutions with existing databases, data warehouses, data lakes, and other systems.
• Integrate the most appropriate stream processing library with enterprise applications and microservices.

This course is designed for enterprise architects, developers, and system administrators, as well as anyone interested in mastering high-throughput distributed messaging systems. Should you have specific needs (e.g., focusing exclusively on system administration), the curriculum can be customized to better fit your objectives.

This instructor-led, live training in Turkey (online or onsite) is aimed at beginner-level / intermediate-level / advanced-level system administrators and operations engineers who wish to use Apache Kafka to deploy, secure, monitor, and troubleshoot Kafka clusters.

Kafka Streams is a client-side library designed for building applications and microservices that exchange data with a Kafka messaging system. Traditionally, processing data between producers and consumers in Apache Kafka has depended on external tools like Apache Spark or Apache Storm. By integrating the Kafka Streams API directly into an application, data processing can occur within the Kafka environment itself, eliminating the need to route data to a separate cluster for handling.

Through this instructor-led live training, participants will learn how to integrate Kafka Streams into sample Java applications that send and receive data via Apache Kafka for stream processing.

By the conclusion of this training, participants will be able to:

• Understand the features and advantages of Kafka Streams compared to other stream processing frameworks
• Process stream data directly within a Kafka cluster
• Develop Java or Scala applications or microservices that integrate 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

• A mix of lectures, discussions, exercises, and extensive hands-on practice
