Apache Kafka is more than just a messaging broker. It has a rich ecosystem of different components. There are connectors for importing and exporting data, different stream processing libraries, schema registries and a lot more. This talk will show how to use it to read data from social networks such as Twitter, process them and use machine learning to analyze them. And all of it will be of course running on top of Kubernetes.

Jakub works at Red Hat as Senior Principal Software Engineer. He has long-term experience with messaging and currently focuses mainly on Apache Kafka and its integration with Kubernetes. He is one of the maintainers of the Strimzi project which provides tooling for running Apache Kafka on Kubernetes. Before joining Red Hat he worked as messaging and solution architect in the financial industry.
