EDA at Scale: How mateco Group Revolutionizes IT with Business-Centric Design through EDA
In this compelling session, we delve into the journey of mateco Group’s significant expansion over the past decade, embracing both organic growth and strategic acquisitions. Operating across 17 countries, mateco has embarked on deploying a cutting-edge IT landscape, underpinned by an Event-Driven Architecture (EDA). At the heart of this transformation is the deployment of every business-critical event onto a Confluent Cloud cluster, seamlessly integrating across the group’s global operations.
Our discussion will offer a deep dive into the technical setup of this EDA, shedding light on both the business and governance perspectives that have shaped its implementation. We will share insights and lessons learned, sometimes the hard way, from embedding an EDA into the core of mateco Group, a leader in the multinational rental equipment industry.
You’ll will gain a comprehensive understanding of the challenges and triumphs in integrating EDA at the heart of a sprawling global enterprise. We aim to provide key takeaways and practical strategies that can be applied to similar large-scale IT projects, particularly in the context of a growing multinational corporation. Join us to explore the intersection of global expansion and innovative IT architecture, and how mateco Group navigates this dynamic landscape.
Navigating the Waters of Kafka: Balancing Resilience with Backup Streams
Dive into the world of Apache Kafka, a superstar in data streaming, with its rock-solid architecture that’s tough as nails. But wait, there’s a twist! What if you accidentally hit delete on crucial data? Cue the dramatic music: do we have a backup of that?
Let’s unravel this mystery together. We’re not just talking about stashing Kafka events in some cloud closet; we’re exploring the why’s, the how’s, and the what-if’s. Think of it like backing up your favorite playlist – you wouldn’t want to lose those tunes, right?
In this talk, we’ll play detective, examining Kafka’s inner workings and squaring off against the villain of human error. Ever tried to restore a deleted email and felt like a hero? That’s what we’re aiming for, but with Kafka topics. We’ll draw lines between Kafka’s built-in toughness and the extra armor of backup streams.
This session is perfect for Kafka crusaders seeking to put some plate armor on their data streams. Come along for an enlightening journey through the Kafka universe. You’ll leave not just with a bunch of “ah-ha!” moments, but also with a toolkit to safeguard your data from those “oops” moments.
See you there, Kafka crusaders!
