In this guest webinar with Chris McDermott, Lead Data Engineer at HPE, learn how HPE InfoSight–powered by Lightbend Platform–has emerged as the go-to solution for providing real-time metrics and predictive analytics for data center technologies.

In this talk by Sean Glover, Principal Engineer at Lightbend, we will review how the Strimzi Kafka Operator, a supported technology in Lightbend Platform, makes many operational tasks in Kafka easy, such as the initial deployment and updates of a Kafka and ZooKeeper cluster.

In this Lightbend Podcast, I sit down with Dean Wampler, VP of Fast Data Engineering, and Craig Blitz, Senior Product Director, of Lightbend. The topic: Lightbend Pipelines, our newest module to become part of Lightbend Platform.

Introducing Kafka Lag Exporter, an OSS tool created by Lightbend's Sean Glover to make it easy to view consumer group metrics in Kafka using Kubernetes, Strimzi, Prometheus, Grafana, and other tools.

In this webinar with Lightbend's Craig Blitz, Product Director, and Kiki Carter, Principal Enterprise Architect, we review how Lightbend’s Pipelines module enables you to develop components ("streamlets") using the appropriate technology, wire them together as pipelines, and deploy them with Kubernetes without all the manual, time-consuming labor.

From real-time data streaming expert and VP of Fast Data Engineering at Lightbend, Dean Wampler, Ph.D., comes the 2nd Edition of his popular O'Reilly eBook Fast Data Architectures for Streaming Applications.

Two technologies–Akka Streams and Kafka Streams–have emerged as popular tools to use with Apache Kafka for addressing the shared requirements of availability, scalability, and resilience for both streaming microservices and Fast Data. So which one should you use for specific use cases?

You’re probably heard of the “SMACK Stack”, but you may not know that three Lightbend experts–Sean Glover, Stavros Kontopoulos, and Gerard Maas–that recently teamed up with O’Reilly Media on a free eBook about working with the SMACK stack for Fast Data applications (available in PDF, EPUB, and MOBI formats–or all 3 in a .zip folder)!

In this webinar by Dr. Dean Wampler, VP of Fast Data Architecture at Lightbend, Inc., we cut through the buzz around Fast Data and explore how to successfully exploit this new opportunity for innovation in how your organization leverages data.

In this webinar by Sean Glover (@seg1o), Lightbend Senior Engineer for Fast Data Platform, we go through some best practices that we've learned working with Kafka, DC/OS, and Kubernetes with Lightbend clients.

In this talk by Dean Wampler, PhD., VP of Fast Data Engineering at Lightbend, we’ll look at the criteria you need to consider when selecting technologies, plus the context and background to make good decisions when it comes to adopting streaming frameworks.

In this webinar by Gerard Maas, senior engineer on Lightbend's Fast Data Platform team and co-author of the recent O’Reilly book Learning Spark Streaming, we walk through an introduction of both APIs. At the end of this presentation, you will have a bit more context for guiding your selection of the the right one for your application.

In this webinar with Lightbend Principal Engineer, David Brinegar, we review how OpsClarity is purpose-built to intelligently monitor streaming applications and help Ops teams resolve issues quickly.

In this webinar with Craig Pottinger, Senior Consultant at Lightbend, we examine the design choices around building streaming systems with technologies like Akka Streams, Apache Kafka, Apache Spark, Apache Flink, Mesosphere DC/OS and Lightbend Reactive Platform, all of which come integrated with Lightbend Fast Data Platform.

In this session by Konrad Malawski, author, speaker and Senior Akka Engineer at Lightbend, you will learn how to build these streaming ETL pipelines with Akka Streams, Alpakka and Apache Kafka, and why they matter to enterprises that are increasingly turning to streaming Fast Data applications.

In this webinar, Lightbend’s Senior Product Director, Craig Blitz reviews five early challenges enterprises face when building streaming and Fast Data systems, what to consider and how Lightbend aims to make these choices more straightforward with our upcoming Fast Data Platform.

In this webinar, Dustin Lyons, Engineering Manager at Credit Karma, discusses how his team migrated away from PHP and successfully implemented Akka Streams with Apache Kafka to ingest, process and route real-time events throughout their data ecosystem.

In this new white paper, we outline the functions a modern monitoring solution must perform in order to truly benefit from the advantages promised by Fast Data and streaming applications.

In this Lightbend webinar, we present what to look for in an effective monitoring solution for streaming and Fast Data applications, including a demo of Lightbend Monitoring using sample scenarios to show how we can help your team not just in production, but also during development to catch performance issues before you even deploy.

In this webinar with Sean Glover, Senior Consultant at Lightbend and industry veteran, we examine the rise of streaming systems built around Spark, Mesos, Akka, Cassandra and Kafka, their role in handling endless streams of data to gain real-time insights, and how Lightbend Fast Data Platform (FDP) brings them together in a comprehensive, easy to use, integrated platform, which includes installation, integration, and monitoring tools tuned for various deployment scenarios, plus sample applications.
