Course Description

UPDATE SEPTEMBER 2018: Course newly recorded with Kafka 2.0!
Welcome to the Apache Kafka Series! Join a community of 20,000+ students learning Kafka.
Apache Kafka has become the leading distributed data streaming enterprise big data technology. Kafka is used in production by over 33% of the Fortune 500 companies such as Netflix, Airbnb, Uber, Walmart and LinkedIn.
To learn Kafka easily, step-by-step, you have come to the right place! No prior Kafka knowledge is required
===============================
If you look at the documentation, you can see that Apache Kafka is not easy to learn...
Thanks to my several years of experience in Kafka and Big Data, I wanted to make learning Kafka accessible to everyone.
We'll take a step-by-step approach to learn all the fundamentals of Apache Kafka.
At the end of this course, you'll be productive and you'll know the following:
  • The Apache Kafka Ecosystem Architecture
  • The Kafka Core Concepts: Topics, Partitions, Brokers, Replicas, Producers, Consumers, and more!
  • Launch your own Kafka cluster in no time using native Kafka binaries Windows / MacOS X / Linux
  • Learn and Practice using the Kafka Command Line Interface (CLI)
  • Code Producer and Consumers using the Java API
  • Real world project using Twitter as a source of data for a producer and ElasticSearch as a sink for our consumer
  • Overview of Advanced APIs (Kafka Connect, Kafka Streams)
  • Real World Case Studies and Big Use cases
  • Overview of Advanced Kafka for Administrators
  • Advanced Topic Configurations
  • Annexes (starting a Kafka cluster locally, using Docker, etc...)
Note: The hands-on section is based on Java, which is the native Kafka programming language. But, good news! Your learning in Java will be completely applicable to other programming languages, such as Python, C#, Node.js or Scala, and Big Data frameworks such as Spark, NiFi or Akka
===============================
The Kafka for Beginners course is the best place to start your Kafka learning journey... Ask other students!
