Abhishek Jaiswal, Solutions Engineer, ConfluentTalk:
Kafka Unplugged: From Basics to Real-World StreamingAbstract:
Kafka powers the real-time data pipelines behind companies like LinkedIn, Netflix, and Uber—but many engineers only interact with it through a few configs and producers/consumers. In this session, we’ll start with Kafka 101 to understand the core building blocks, then move into Kafka 201 where we explore how real production systems handle scaling, ordering, consumer groups, and event-driven architecture patterns. By the end, you’ll not only understand how Kafka works, but how to design systems that use it effectively in the real world.-----
💡 Speaker:
Prabhanshu Chauhan, Customer Success Technical Architect, ConflentTalk:
High-Throughput, Low-Latency: Practical Performance Tuning for Apache Kafka in ProductionAbstract:
This talk dives deep into performance tuning Apache Kafka for real-world, high-throughput workloads. We’ll walk through how to reason about end-to-end latency and throughput, then map those requirements to concrete broker, topic, and client configurations. Using practical examples and benchmarks, we’ll cover tuning batch sizes, compression, acks, linger, and max in-flight requests on producers; fetch, prefetch, and concurrency on consumers; and replication, partitions, page cache, and disk on brokers. We’ll also discuss common anti-patterns that silently kill performance, how to interpret key metrics in JMX / client metrics, and a simple methodology for running load tests and iterating safely in production***
