Preparing the Consumer Fetch: Kafka Producer and Consumer Internals, Part 3

Welcome back to the third installment of our blog series where we’re diving into the beautiful black box that is Apache Kafka to better understand how we interact with the cluster through producer and consumer clients. Earlier in the series, we took a look at the Kafka producer to see how the client works before following a produce request as it’s processed by the cluster.

Replication in Apache Kafka Explained | Monitoring & Troubleshooting Data Streaming Applications

Learn how replication works in Apache Kafka. Deep dive into its critical aspects, including: Whether you're a systems architect, developer, or just curious about Kafka, this video provides valuable insights and hands-on examples. Don't forget to check out our GitHub repo to get all of the code used in the demo, and to contribute your own enhancements.

AI-driven test strategy and its impact on software quality

While still in its early days, artificial intelligence is becoming a driving force behind innovation in software testing. While automation has improved testing efficiency, AI can take it further by influencing critical decision-making. Rather than reacting to issues as they arise, teams can now identify potential problems earlier in the development cycle. In this article, we’ll explore how artificial intelligence can help teams rethink their testing strategies.

6 Use Cases of Generative AI Applications for Document Extraction

Every device, transaction, and interaction in our digital world generates an endless stream of data. By 2025, the amount of global data is expected to reach a mind-boggling 180 zettabytes. So, how do we extract and make sense of this growing data? That’s exactly where generative AI proves its value. This blog explains generative AI applications for document extraction and how this technology helps cut through the noise and zero in on exactly what you need.

How Solid Data Strategies are Fueling Generative AI Innovation

If innovation is the ultimate goal in business and technology today, then consider generative AI (gen AI) the vehicle taking us there — and a strong data strategy, the fuel. Despite all its promise of productivity gains and new discoveries, gen AI alone can't do it all. The technology needs a "very ready" data foundation to feed on, something the vast majority of businesses today (78%) do not possess, according to a new report by MIT Technology Review Insights, in partnership with Snowflake.

Optimize Your AWS Data Lake with Streamsets Data Pipelines and ChaosSearch

Many enterprises face significant challenges when it comes to building data pipelines in AWS, particularly around data ingestion. As data from diverse sources continues to grow exponentially, managing and processing it efficiently in AWS is critical. Without these capabilities, it’s harder to analyze and get any meaning from your data.

Optimize your iOS app perfomance using MetricKit

For iPhone and iPad app development, one of the main aspects is the app’s performance. Performance is about your application not crashing, but also how quickly and smoothly it can carry out its functions when users interact with it. An application whose functions consume a lot of battery life, or an application that doesn’t like to wait too long until it finishes whatever it wants to do, can lead to users uninstalling the app.

6 Ways to Harness the Power of Generative AI in Manufacturing

Generative AI in manufacturing refers to using advanced AI algorithms and generative models to optimize various aspects of the production process. This technology enables manufacturers to create innovative product designs, streamline workflows, predict maintenance needs, and boost efficiency in frontline operations. By integrating generative AI, manufacturers can enhance decision-making, collaboration, and data insights, ultimately improving overall performance.
