Apache Kafka Series - Kafka Connect Hands-on Learning

About this course

Kafka Connect is how you move data in and out of Kafka without writing custom code, and this 4.5-hour course teaches the framework hands-on: source and sink connectors, standalone and distributed modes, and real data pipelines.

• Kafka Connect concepts, architecture, and the connector ecosystem
• Source connectors hands-on, bringing external data into Kafka
• Sink connectors hands-on, delivering Kafka data to other systems
• Distributed mode, scaling, and production configuration

Frequently asked questions

What are the prerequisites?
Good knowledge of Apache Kafka fundamentals (the Kafka for Beginners course).

In which order should I take the Apache Kafka courses?
Start with Kafka for Beginners. Then follow the developer track (Kafka Streams, Kafka Connect, Confluent Schema Registry, KSQL) if you build applications, or the admin track (Cluster Setup, Monitoring & Operations, Security) if you operate clusters. Both tracks together are the recommended preparation for the Confluent certifications.
