Database pipelines with Apache Kafka - Let the Database Stream !

**Abstract:**
Everyone stores data in different systems and databases. Moving data from one system to another is called a data pipeline. Data pipelines allow data to be moved between operational and analytical systems in an organization. Apache Kafka is a popular choice for scenarios where features like “write once, read many”, or a guaranteed order of messages are important.
The talk will focus on different use cases for transferring data between different database systems and Apache Kafka and shows different approaches and examples, including best practices and a short live demo.

**Bio:**
Michael Mühlbeyer has been working as a Senior Solutions Architect for Confluent since 2022. Michael began his career at Komm.One, where he began training as an IT specialist in system integration. After completing his training, he worked at Komm.One as a DBA for several hundred Oracle, Postgres and MySQL databases. After moving to Trivadis, he focused on BigData and streaming architectures. Most recently, Michael was responsible for the architecture of streaming and BigData platforms and for supporting customers with PostgreSQL databases.
