@KeithResar
The Rise of Event Streaming 2010 Apache Kafka created at
LinkedIn 2022 Most fortune 100 companies trust and use Kafka
A company is built on _DATA FLOWS_ but all we
have are _DATA STORES_
Example Application Architecture Serving Layer (Microservices, Elastic, etc.) Java Apps
with Kafka Streams or ksqlDB Continuous Computation High-Throughput Event Streaming Platform API-Based Clustering @KeithResar
Apache Kafka is an Event Streaming Platform 1. Storage 2.
Pub / Sub 3. Processing @KeithResar
Storage 12 @KeithResar
Core Abstractions @KeithResar • DB → table • Hadoop →
file • Kafka - ?
LOG
Immutable Event Log New Messages are added at the end
of the log Old @KeithResar
Messages are KV Bytes key: byte[] value: byte[] Headers =>
[Header] @KeithResar
Messages Inside Topics Clicks Orders Customers Topics are similar to
database tables @KeithResar
Topics divide into Partitions Messages are guaranteed to be strictly
ordered within a partition @KeithResar P 0 Clicks P 1 P 2
None
Pub / Sub 20 @KeithResar
Producing Data New Messages are added at the end of
the log Old @KeithResar
Consuming Data New Consume via sequential data access starting from
a specific offset. Old @KeithResar Read to offset & scan
Distinct Consumer Positions New Old @KeithResar Sally offset 12 Fred
offset 3 Rick offset 9

Linearly Scalable Architecture @KeithResar Producers • Many producers machines •
Many consumer machines • Many Broker machines Consumers Single topic, No Bottleneck!

Similar to a traditional messaging system (ActiveMQ, Rabbit, etc.) but with: • Far better scalability • Built-in fault tolerance/HA • Storage
