Talk:
Building Streaming Data Analytics with Kafka

Abstract:
In today’s age, companies want to quickly use data to gain market competency. They want high performance with the least data latency, increasing the focus on streaming data processing and analytics. But the question remains, how can they gain business insights in real time at reasonable costs? As of today, streaming data processing and analytics are quite complex and have no standardisation. Lots of resources get consumed on building and maintaining the streaming pipeline. In this session, Mingxing will share how to use Kafka and OLAP to empower your business at a reasonable cost.
