In this video, we'll look at some techniques for evolving events by analyzing a specific use case in a banking fraud detection system.

When developing or debugging a stream processing pipeline with Flink SQL, it’s common to inspect each processing step's output to ensure data is being transformed properly. However, comprehending the resulting data stream's structure, distribution, and characteristics entails executing multiple ad-hoc SQL queries, which can be time-consuming and tedious. Additionally, isolating specific subsets of the stream for analysis or debugging often involves even more queries, adding to the complexity and time required.

Learn how to leverage the native monitoring capabilities of the Python Kafka producer along with Confluent Cloud’s Metrics API while exploring how linger.ms affects latency and batch sizes.

When building a distributed system, developers are often faced with something known as the dual-write problem. It occurs whenever the system needs to perform individual writes to separate systems that can't be transactionally linked. This situation creates the potential for data loss if the developer isn't careful. However, techniques such as the Transactional Outbox Pattern and Event Sourcing can be used to guard against the potential for data loss while also providing added resilience to the system.

Tabs or spaces? Merge vs. rebase? Flink SQL vs. KStreams? Let’s Settle This is powered by a new Kafka JavaScript client from Confluent: confluent-kafka-javascript (early access). Find out how Lucia used it to make the website in the video above.

The headless data architecture. Is it a fad? Some marketecture? Or something real? In this video, Adam Bellemare takes you through the basics of the headless data architecture and why it’s beginning to emerge as its own respective pattern. Driven by the decoupling of data computation from storage, the headless data architecture provides the basis for a modular data ecosystem. Stream your data for near real-time low latency use cases, or convert it to an Iceberg table for analytical use cases.

In this video, you will see an example of how Tributary bank uses asynchronous events to enrich its domain and protect its fraud detection system from failures.

In this video, we discuss one way a business can approach decomposing a monolith using a series of clearly defined steps and robust monitoring.
