In an era where real-time data processing is essential, the integration of Apache Kafka on Mainframe systems might seem impossible. This session explores the feasibility and advantages of integrating with Kafka on z/OS. This includes exploring the technical intricacies of integrating Kafka's distributed streaming capabilities with the robustness and transactional integrity of mainframes. Plus, configuration strategies, performance optimizations, and practical use cases that demonstrate how Kafka can modernize legacy systems, enhance data throughput, and drive real-time analytics on mainframe architectures. Let's learn how to uncover the surprising synergy between Kafka and Mainframes, transforming data processing paradigms.
Andrew is the architect for z/OS Connect focussing on providing the ability for z/OS customers to unlock the data in their systems through modern RESTful APIs. He is also involved with open source maintaining several projects related to z/OS Connect and contributing to the Zowe project.
