In continuous operation since 1976, the Trenton Computer Festival (TCF) is the nation's longest running personal computer. For the seventeenth year, the TCF is extending its program to provide Information Technology and computer professionals with an additional day of conference. It is intended, in an economical way, to provide attendees with insight and information pertinent to their jobs, and to keep them informed of emerging technologies that could impact their work.
The IT Professional Conference is co-sponsored by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) Computer Society Chapter of Princeton / Central Jersey.

Building Modern Data Streaming Apps
In this session, I will show you some best practices I have discovered over the last seven years in building data streaming applications including IoT, CDC, Logs, and more.
In my modern approach, we utilize several Apache frameworks to maximize the best features of all. We often start with Apache NiFi as the orchestrator of streams flowing into Apache Pulsar. From there we build streaming ETL with Spark, enhance events with Pulsar Functions for ML and enrichment. We build continuous queries against our topics with Flink SQL.
