Summary

Kafka Summit London, scheduled for April 27th and 28th, is an ideal opportunity for those looking to deepen their understanding of Apache Kafka, featuring 56 sessions across four non-themed tracks, allowing for a more dynamic selection of high-quality talks. The summit includes keynotes from influential figures like Jay Kreps and Sam Newman, who will discuss the future of Apache Kafka and distributed systems. Although thematic tracks have been replaced with numbered ones, session tags offer an easy way to identify relevant topics. Participants can also engage with the Confluent Community Slack for assistance with crafting talk submissions for the upcoming Kafka Summit in Austin. Attendees are encouraged to register using a promotional code for a discount, and those unable to attend in London have the opportunity to catch up on related AI and data innovations at other events, such as AWS re:Invent 2024.
