Talk: Adding Avro to your Kafka streams to meet your messaging needs

Abstract: In this presentation, we will discuss Kafka Connect. Kafka Connect is an open-source project from Confluent to either take information from a data store as a Source and possibly dump information into another datastore, a Sink.

What this presentation will entail:

A brief overview and review of Kafka
The Architecture of Kafka Connect
Standalone vs Distributed
Connecting a Source
Creating Single Message Transforms
Connecting a Sink

At the end of this presentation, we will have a live demonstration of watching a data pipeline using data stores.
