[Webinar + Demo] BMW Group’s Omnichannel Transformation Using Data Streaming | Join!
Let us cut to the chase: Kafka Summit London session videos are available! If you were there, you know what a great time it was, and you know that you had to make sometimes-agonizing decisions about which sessions to attend and which to miss. Well, now you can make all those tradeoffs right by watching the whole catalog. And if you weren’t there? Well, dig in and start learning!
It’s always fun to share the numbers from each Summit. This year’s London event was almost double the size of last year, so I’m especially happy to see these numbers on the page:
We kicked off the event with some top-flight emceeing (who is that guy?), and a couple of fantastic keynotes:

Some of us, when we yield to the worse angels of our nature, are given to a bit of FOMO. You shouldn’t do this at all, but if telling you that doesn’t help, then the least you can do is get in on the early bird registration for the Kafka Summit San Francisco, which is this Sept. 30–Oct. 1. The agenda will launch very soon, and I think you’ll love it. As always, I hope to see you there!
On September 17-18, the data streaming world will descend upon Austin, Texas for Current 2024––bringing the community together to discuss all things Apache Kafka® and Apache Flink®. You’ll hear from tech leaders, industry giants, and startups as they drop a seemingly endless supply of knowledge...
As government agencies work to improve both customer experience and operational efficiency, two tools have become critical: cloud services and data. Confluent and Amazon Web Services (AWS) have collaborated to make the move to and management of cloud easier
