When it all went to Kafka 2: Disperse producers

Day 2 /  / Track 4  /  RU / For practicing engineers

Continuation of the talk "When it all went to Kafka", but the main attention will get a Producer: we will figure out what is under his hood and how it all works. This talk will be about Producer tuning performance: finding pinch points and choosing the definitive characteristics for the requirements.

We will analyze the work of the Producer:

  • What settings affect their performance;
  • What performance metrics we have and what do they mean;
  • A search of pinch points;
  • Selection of characteristics for external requirements.
