Introduction and Overview of Apache Kafka, TriHUG July 23, 2013mumrah
Apache Kafka is a new breed of messaging system built for the "big data" world. Coming out of LinkedIn (and donated to Apache), it is a distributed pub/sub system built in Scala. It has been an Apache TLP now for several months with the first Apache release imminent. Built for speed, scalability, and robustness, Kafka should definitely be one of the data tools you consider when designing distributed data-oriented applications.
The talk will cover a general overview of the project and technology, with some use cases, and a demo.
In the last few years, Apache Kafka has been used extensively in enterprises for real-time data collecting, delivering, and processing. In this presentation, Jun Rao, Co-founder, Confluent, gives a deep dive on some of the key internals that help make Kafka popular.
- Companies like LinkedIn are now sending more than 1 trillion messages per day to Kafka. Learn about the underlying design in Kafka that leads to such high throughput.
- Many companies (e.g., financial institutions) are now storing mission critical data in Kafka. Learn how Kafka supports high availability and durability through its built-in replication mechanism.
- One common use case of Kafka is for propagating updatable database records. Learn how a unique feature called compaction in Apache Kafka is designed to solve this kind of problem more naturally.

This session explains Apache Kafka’s internal design and architecture. Companies like LinkedIn are now sending more than 1 trillion messages per day to Apache Kafka. Learn about the underlying design in Kafka that leads to such high throughput.
This talk provides a comprehensive overview of Kafka architecture and internal functions, including:
-Topics, partitions and segments
-The commit log and streams
-Brokers and broker replication
-Producer basics
-Consumers, consumer groups and offsets
This session is part 2 of 4 in our Fundamentals for Apache Kafka series.
Performance Tuning RocksDB for Kafka Streams' State Stores (Dhruba Borthakur,...confluent
RocksDB is the default state store for Kafka Streams. In this talk, we will discuss how to improve single node performance of the state store by tuning RocksDB and how to efficiently identify issues in the setup. We start with a short description of the RocksDB architecture. We discuss how Kafka Streams restores the state stores from Kafka by leveraging RocksDB features for bulk loading of data. We give examples of hand-tuning the RocksDB state stores based on Kafka Streams metrics and RocksDB’s metrics. At the end, we dive into a few RocksDB command line utilities that allow you to debug your setup and dump data from a state store. We illustrate the usage of the utilities with a few real-life use cases. The key takeaway from the session is the ability to understand the internal details of the default state store in Kafka Streams so that engineers can fine-tune their performance for different varieties of workloads and operate the state stores in a more robust manner.

Apache Kafka is an open-source message broker project developed by the Apache Software Foundation written in Scala. The project aims to provide a unified, high-throughput, low-latency platform for handling real-time data feeds.
Cluster computing frameworks such as Hadoop or Spark are tremendously beneficial in processing and deriving insights from data. However, long query latencies make these frameworks sub-optimal choices to power interactive applications. Organizations frequently rely on dedicated query layers, such as relational databases and key/value stores, for faster query latencies, but these technologies suffer many drawbacks for analytic use cases. In this session, we discuss using Druid for analytics and why the architecture is well suited to power analytic applications.
User-facing applications are replacing traditional reporting interfaces as the preferred means for organizations to derive value from their datasets. In order to provide an interactive user experience, user interactions with analytic applications must complete in an order of milliseconds. To meet these needs, organizations often struggle with selecting a proper serving layer. Many serving layers are selected because of their general popularity without understanding the possible architecture limitations.
Druid is an analytics data store designed for analytic (OLAP) queries on event data. It draws inspiration from Google’s Dremel, Google’s PowerDrill, and search infrastructure. Many enterprises are switching to Druid for analytics, and we will cover why the technology is a good fit for its intended use cases.

Building Stream Infrastructure across Multiple Data Centers with Apache KafkaGuozhang Wang
To manage the ever-increasing volume and velocity of data within your company, you have successfully made the transition from single machines and one-off solutions to large distributed stream infrastructures in your data center, powered by Apache Kafka. But what if one data center is not enough? I will describe building resilient data pipelines with Apache Kafka that span multiple data centers and points of presence, and provide an overview of best practices and common patterns while covering key areas such as architecture guidelines, data replication, and mirroring as well as disaster scenarios and failure handling.

Building High-Throughput, Low-Latency Pipelines in Kafkaconfluent
William Hill is one of the UK’s largest, most well-established gaming companies with a global presence across 9 countries with over 16,000 employees. In recent years the gaming industry and in particular sports betting, has been revolutionised by technology. Customers now demand a wide range of events and markets to bet on both pre-game and in-play 24/7. This has driven out a business need to process more data, provide more updates and offer more markets and prices in real time.
At William Hill, we have invested in a completely new trading platform using Apache Kafka. We process vast quantities of data from a variety of feeds, this data is fed through a variety of odds compilation models, before being piped out to UI apps for use by our trading teams to provide events, markets and pricing data out to various end points across the whole of William Hill. We deal with thousands of sporting events, each with sometimes hundreds of betting markets, each market receiving hundreds of updates. This scales up to vast numbers of messages flowing through our system. We have to process, transform and route that data in real time. Using Apache Kafka, we have built a high throughput, low latency pipeline, based on Cloud hosted Microservices. When we started, we were on a steep learning curve with Kafka, Microservices and associated technologies. This led to fast learnings and fast failings.
In this session, we will tell the story of what we built, what went well, what didn’t go so well and what we learnt. This is a story of how a team of developers learnt (and are still learning) how to use Kafka. We hope that you will be able to take away lessons and learnings of how to build a data processing pipeline with Apache Kafka.

• Uses OS memory management;
• Relies on replicas not on disks;
• Zero-copy;
Key takeaways
Do quick presentation of each other
short agenda (first kafka basics + seconds design choice that made it a great tool for our scale)
Why this name : just because initial creator (Jay Kreps) liked this author, like the fact he was a writer and think it was a good name for an OS project.
Topic is just lake a table in a DB but for a queue for a queue we called that topic. You send message to Bid request topic and you received message from billable click topic
Partition are a section of a topic. So here topic A have two partiotn / topic B have 4. Partitions are spread over different servers but one partition is always fitting in one server.
Topic can be bid request and billable click
Bid request as 1000 partitions
Partitions are in different server
Order only inside a partition
Each message as a monotonic offset.
Focus on :
- Kafka is just storing bytes / no schema --> you can send image in kafka if you want (not a wonderfull idea, but it works)
First step we want to explain you is complexity is not in server but in client
Producer and consumer
Broker is dummy
Difference between rabbit MQ or oyher queue : you can have huge queue if you want (cf event sourcing store) limit is disk / don’t care about status of a message is it well received is dummy + pull and not push
You can group together consumer to create a consumer group and so a distributed application. Broker is managing coordianation of consumer to assgn good partition to good consumer
Focus on :
- No SPOF /no broker acting like gateway for the cluster : producer is maintenaing the mapping (topic, partition) -> broker
Batch is only logic : one physical message (one send request / ack) is containing several messages
Batch advantage : Compress is efficient / network ack is efficient : one ack for each 1 000 messages for instance
Warning : consumer receive compress batch data only if producer was sending like that
Cost efficiency + highest perf
Advantage here is to use JBOD or RAID
Having ssd will cost more with equal perf or even lower
- Same cache system than varnish (HTTP cache server)
- Designed to work with linux only.
- a heap of 4gb is enough because no data inside (only managing metatdata and client connection)
