Speaker:
Ricardo Ferreira, Developer Advocate, Confluent

Title:
Developing Kafka-based Apps using Confluent Cloud

Abstract:
While Apache Kafka has been unarguably successful for on-premise environments, there is a increasing trend of using Kafka in the cloud. To address this trend fully managed services like Confluent Cloud were created to allow developers leverage the most of Kafka but without the operational burden that maintaining clusters by themselves can bring.

This talk will explain in details the first steps to start using Confluent Cloud, how to write producer and consumer applications using Java and Go, as well as how to create event streaming applications using the managed version of ksqlDB. This talk has no slides and the speaker will create everything from scratch while walking through the code and resources created. Join us if you love hands-on talks!

Bio:
