Every enterprise application creates data, whether it’s log messages, metrics, user activity, outgoing messages, or something else. And how to move all of this data becomes nearly as important as the data itself. If you’re an application architect, developer, or production engineer new to Apache Kafka, this practical guide shows you how to use this open source streaming platform to handle real-time data feeds. Engineers from Confluent and LinkedIn who are responsible for developing Kafka explain how to deploy production Kafka clusters, write reliable event-driven microservices, and build scalable stream-processing applications with this platform. Through detailed examples, you’ll learn Kafka’s design principles, reliability guarantees, key APIs, and architecture details, including the replication protocol, the controller, and the storage layer. Understand publish-subscribe messaging and how it fits in the big data ecosystem. Explore Kafka producers and consumers for writing and reading messages Understand Kafka patterns and use-case requirements to ensure reliable data delivery Get best practices for building data pipelines and applications with Kafka Manage Kafka in production, and learn to perform monitoring, tuning, and maintenance tasks Learn the most critical metrics among Kafka’s operational measurements Explore how Kafka’s stream delivery capabilities make it a perfect source for stream processing systems

Summary Kafka Streams in Action teaches you everything you need to know to implement stream processing on data flowing into your Kafka platform, allowing you to focus on getting more from your data without sacrificing time or effort. Foreword by Neha Narkhede, Cocreator of Apache Kafka Purchase of the print book includes a free eBook in PDF, Kindle, and ePub formats from Manning Publications. About the Technology Not all stream-based applications require a dedicated processing cluster. The lightweight Kafka Streams library provides exactly the power and simplicity you need for message handling in microservices and real-time event processing. With the Kafka Streams API, you filter and transform data streams with just Kafka and your application. About the Book Kafka Streams in Action teaches you to implement stream processing within the Kafka platform. In this easy-to-follow book, you'll explore real-world examples to collect, transform, and aggregate data, work with multiple processors, and handle real-time events. You'll even dive into streaming SQL with KSQL! Practical to the very end, it finishes with testing and operational aspects, such as monitoring and debugging. What's inside Using the KStreams API Filtering, transforming, and splitting data Working with the Processor API Integrating with external systems About the Reader Assumes some experience with distributed systems. No knowledge of Kafka or streaming applications required. About the Author Bill Bejeck is a Kafka Streams contributor and Confluent engineer with over 15 years of software development experience.

The software architecture landscape has evolved dramatically over the past decade. Microservices have displaced monoliths. Data and applications are increasingly becoming distributed and decentralised. But composing disparate systems is a hard problem. More recently, software practitioners have been rapidly converging on event-driven architecture as a sustainable way of dealing with complexity - integrating systems without increasing their coupling.In Effective Kafka, Emil Koutanov explores the fundamentals of Event-Driven Architecture - using Apache Kafka - the world's most popular and supported open-source event streaming platform.You'll learn: - The fundamentals of event-driven architecture and event streaming platforms- The background and rationale behind Apache Kafka, its numerous potential uses and applications- The architecture and core concepts - the underlying software components, partitioning and parallelism, load-balancing, record ordering and consistency modes- Installation of Kafka and related tooling - using standalone deployments, clusters, and containerised deployments with Docker- Using CLI tools to interact with and administer Kafka classes, as well as publishing data and browsing topics- Using third-party web-based tools for monitoring a cluster and gaining insights into the event streams- Building stream processing applications in Java 11 using off-the-shelf client libraries- Patterns and best-practice for organising the application architecture, with emphasis on maintainability and testability of the resulting code- The numerous gotchas that lurk in Kafka's client and broker configuration, and how to counter them- Theoretical background on distributed and concurrent computing, exploring factors affecting their liveness and safety- Best-practices for running multi-tenanted clusters across diverse engineering teams, how teams collaborate to build complex systems at scale and equitably share the cluster with the aid of quotas- Operational aspects of running Kafka clusters at scale, performance tuning and methods for optimising network and storage utilisation- All aspects of Kafka security -including network segregation, encryption, certificates, authentication and authorization.The coverage is progressively delivered and carefully aimed at giving you a journey-like experience into becoming proficient with Apache Kafka and Event-Driven Architecture. The goal is to get you designing and building applications. And by the conclusion of this book, you will be a confident practitioner and a Kafka evangelist within your organisation - wielding the knowledge necessary to teach others.
