Kafka Streams for Confluent Platform
Blog post from Confluent
Kafka Streams is a client library for creating Java and Scala applications and microservices that process data stored in Apache Kafka clusters, combining standard client-side development with Kafka’s distributed server-side capabilities. The material directs users to Confluent Cloud and self-managed Confluent Platform quick starts, notes that Cloud-based applications can be monitored through Confluent Cloud Console, and highlights MCP servers and AI assistant integrations for managing clusters and building streaming applications. It also offers learning resources including a free Kafka Streams 101 course, a first-application quick start, podcasts on stream processing topics, recommended blog posts and courses, screencasts, and links to the Kafka Streams Developer Guide and related Apache Kafka documentation.
