BUILDING MODERN DATA PIPELINES

JAMES WARD | PRINCIPAL PLATFORM EVANGELIST | SALESFORCE.COM | @_JamesWard

ABOUT THE TALK:
Our modern systems are no longer just simple CRUD apps. We now need to deal with massive, distributed, real-time data systems that ingest potentially terabytes of data, support real-time and batch analytics, do machine learning, and support a host of web and mobile app interfaces. This session will walk through architectural patterns and technologies for building these modern data pipelines. You will learn about Apache Kafka, a variety of databases, and data processing frameworks like Spark.
