Real-Time Data Takes Center Stage

Modern business happens in real time. Today’s competitive edge comes from getting fresh and consistent data to the right place, in the right format, at the right time to build data products faster and push use case utility and innovation to new heights. Real time data streaming unlocks the full value of all data within an organization—no matter where it resides. The value that data streaming adds to app and data product production and go-to-market velocity is undeniable.

Get Up to Speed on Data Streaming at Kafka Summit Bangalore

Join developers, architects, data engineers, DevOps professionals, and software thought leaders at the first event event for the Apache Kafka® community in Bangalore. Hear best practices, learn how to build next-generation systems, and take deep dives into how Kafka and the latest data streaming technologies—including cloud-native event streaming services and generative AI—are influencing what’s new and next in the ever-widening world of data streaming.

With data volume growing at breakneck speed, the ability to harness it in real time is the key to driving greater business insight and accelerating innovation. Kafka Summit is where everything Kafka comes together, so make it a priority to attend Kafka Summit 2024.
