Talk:
Maximising Analytics with ClickHouse and Kafka Integration

Abstract:
ClickHouse, a high-performance columnar database, excels in handling large-scale data inserts and fast analytical querying, making it ideal for building real-time reporting solutions. Kafka, a distributed streaming platform, complements ClickHouse by providing high-throughput data ingestion, message ordering, and fault tolerance. It acts as a data pipeline, efficiently handling real-time data streams between systems.
By integrating ClickHouse and Kafka, you create a powerful, scalable analytics solution that combines real-time data ingestion with fast, efficient querying. In this talk, we'll explore how these two tools work together to build high-performance analytics services, and show a live demo of how to set up ClickPipes for Kafka.

Talk:
Apache Kafka® 101

Abstract:
Apache Kafka is an event streaming platform used to collect, process, store, and integrate data at scale. It has numerous use cases including distributed logging, stream processing, data integration, and pub/sub messaging.
In order to make complete sense of what Kafka does, we’ll delve into what an “event streaming platform” is and how it works. So before delving into Kafka architecture or its core components, let’s discuss what an event is. This will help explain how Kafka stores events, how to get events in and out of the system, and how to analyze event streams.
