Lachezar Balev

I am a software engineer with 18+ years experience in various projects. I met Java in 2000 in the form of J2SE 1.2. But my hello world “application” was written in BASIC long before. Currently I work at REWE Digital Bulgaria on an exciting Microservice oriented architecture. I love to experiment, peek under the hood of popular open source frameworks and build usable and reliable software.
You can meet me at Stack Overflow, GitHub, and some smaller online communities. In my free time I love riding my motorbike around the country (but I never leave my laptop behind).

Kafka. Usage in an event driven architecture.

Day 1 - 27th Nov 15:20-16:10 Hall 3.2 #J2D Novice Novice

The topic includes basic and gentle introduction to Apache Kafka bundled with a live demo. For those that love to experiment and make their hands dirty. There will be a GitHub project including a dockerized infrastructure – Kafka and Zookeeper. All this will be followed by some real world Kafka stories from the kitchen.
