Title:
Producing Test Data into Kafka

Abstract:
Producing Kafka topics from the command line or a UI tool is pretty convenient, but sometimes you need a more constant flow of events to test an application. In this session, we'll look at a few options for producing a steady stream of events to your Kafka topics. These techniques can make it easier to flesh out the design of a new Kafka Streams topology or to test a Kafka Connect pipeline.

Bio:
After 28 years as a developer, architect, project manager (recovered), author, trainer, conference organizer, and homeschooling dad, Dave Klein landed his dream job as a developer advocate at Confluent. Dave is marveling in and eager to help others explore the amazing world of event streaming with Apache Kafka.
