[SPECIAL GUEST]  Apache Pulsar: Under the Hood for Java Developers

Details

In this meetup, we'll get introduced to a fantastic project written in Java called Apache Pulsar - a high throughput distributed messaging system (similar to Kafka but better). Addison Higham, a committer, we'll walk us through the basic design principles under the hood and several challenges they faced in the Java eco-system we can learn from. A great lecture I wouldn't miss!

AGENDA

20:15 - 20:30 Virtual huddle
20:30 - 21:30 Apache Pulsar: Under the Hood for Java Developers / Addison Higham - StreamNative
21:30 - 22:30 Q&A with speaker

= Apache Pulsar: Under the Hood for Java Developers

In this talk, we will introduce Apache Pulsar and it's unique feature set that allows for Pulsar to be used both as a pub/sub (like RabbitMQ) and event-storage systems for billions of events (like Kafka), in a horizontally scalable way. We will then talk about how Pulsar is architected, built and dive into a few areas of how it uses the JVM to achieve these goals

== Addison Higham

Addison Higham is a Software Engineer at StreamNative, a company that develops Apache Pulsar. Previously, Addison worked as a Platform Architect for Instructure, where he lead multiple platform efforts for including the deployment of Pulsar
