Perfect match. I knew Kafka in depth, but had never used authentication/authorization on it.

By Eric PAETZ on 10/21/2020

Most complex lecture of the series. Very well done.

By John Hunter on 10/19/2020

Would have been a 5 star in 2017. The videos are over three years old at this point (2020), the technologies have advanced and I've had great difficulty getting through the exercises. Videos that should have taken 30 minutes to get through took over 4 hours to complete due to technical difficulties. I cannot recommend this course in the state that it's in.

By Andrea Monacchi on 10/10/2020

Looks good to start with this session

By Jeremy Ber on 9/13/2020

Gerd was a very dry instructor and did not include much of what he was typing in the resources. This made his sections very difficult to follow and keep up.

Good hands on learning
