Book Description

Concepts and Patterns for Streaming Services with Apache Kafka: this book explains how service-based architectures and stream processing tools such as Apache Kafka can help you build business-critical systems.

Proven approaches such as service-oriented and event-driven architectures are joined by newer techniques such as microservices, reactive architectures, DevOps, and stream processing. Many of these patterns are successful by themselves, but as this practical ebook demonstrates, they provide a more holistic and compelling approach when applied together.

While the main focus of this book is the building of event-driven systems of different sizes, there is a deeper focus on software that spans many teams.
