Stream Processing: Hands-on with Apache Flink
Stream Processing: Hands-on with Apache Flink
About the Book
This is a complete hands-on book about Apache Flink.
The book follows real-life use cases and you will learn how to create end-to-end stream processing pipelines.
We will be using Redpanda and Apache Kafka - along with other technologies - so an understanding of Apache Kafka and Redpanda concepts like topics/partitions and producers/consumers is nice to have.
The book is designed to teach you the theory and the practicals as fast as possible. The reader should be able to get from zero to production-ready applications fast with enough practice on the concepts introduced in the book, along with having enough knowledge to debug and troubleshoot when things go wrong.
Hope you will enjoy it and use it as a guide in your journey in the land of streams.
