Review of the Udemy course Apache Kafka Series – Kafka Streams for Data Processing.
The Apache Kafka Series – Kafka Streams for Data Processing Course is ideal for anyone who wants to learn Kafka Streams easily, step-by-step, without any prior knowledge of Kafka. The course requires a recent computer (Windows / Linux / Mac OS X) with 4GB of RAM and good knowledge of Apache Kafka and Java 8 programming language.
Section outline:
- Kafka Streams – First Look: Let’s get Kafka started and run your first Kafka Streams application, WordCount
- End-to-End Kafka Streams Application : Write the code for the WordCount, bring in the dependencies, build and package your application, and learn how to scale it. This is a complete end to end example
- KStream and KTable Simple Operations: Learn all the stateless operations available for the KStream and KTable API
- Practice Exercise – Favourite Colour: Practice your newly acquired skills by writing your own Kafka Streams application, Favourite Colour. It will be challenging! Includes a Scala version of the example
- KStream and KTable Advanced Operations: Learn all the stateful operations available for the KStream and KTable API
- Exactly Once Semantics – Theory: Learn what EOS (Exactly Once Semantics) is, how Kafka 0.11 enables it, and how to activate them in Kafka Streams
- Exactly Once – Practice Exercise – Bank Balance: Practice your newly acquired knowledge by writing your own Kafka Streams Exactly Once application, to compute a running Bank Balance for your customers
- Testing your Kafka Streams Application: Learn how to test the WordCount Kafka Streams Topology with Kafka Streams v1.1.0
Note: This course is based on Java 8 and will include one example in Scala. Kafka Streams is Java based, and therefore is not suited for any other programming language.
