Kafka Streams in Action, Second Edition

Inside, you’ll find comprehensive coverage of not only Kafka Streams, but the entire toolbox you’ll need for effective streaming—from the components of the Kafka ecosystem, to Producer and Consumer clients, Connect, and Schema Registry. In Kafka Streams in Action, Second Edition you’ll learn how to: - Design streaming applications in Kafka Streams with the KStream and the Processor API - Integrate external systems with Kafka Connect - Enforce data compatibility with Schema Registry - Build applications that respond immediately to events in either Kafka Streams or ksqlDB - Craft materialized views over streams with ksqlDB This totally revised new edition of Kafka Streams in Action has been expanded to cover more of the Kafka platform used for building event-based applications. You’ll also find full coverage of ksqlDB, an event streaming database that makes it a snap to create applications that respond immediately to events, such as real-time push and pull updates.
