Gwen Shapira (Core Kafka Software Engineer, Confluent) sits down to answer the questions you've had about event streaming, Apache Kafka®, Confluent, and everything in between. This includes creating tables in nested JSON topics, how to balance ordering, latency and reliability, building event-based systems, and how to navigate the tricky endOffsets API. She talks about the hardships of fencing Zombie requests, some of the talks given at previous Kafka Summits, and an important question from Ask Confluent #3.
