Tales From the Four-comma Club: Managing Kafka as a Service at Salesforce
Date : September 14, 2021
Time : 01:00 PM - 02:00 PM

Apache Kafka is a key part of the Big Data infrastructure at Salesforce, enabling publish/subscribe and data transport in near real-time at enterprise scale handling trillions of messages per day. In this session, hear from the teams at Salesforce that manage Kafka as a service, running over a hundred clusters across on-premise and public cloud environments with over 99.9% availability. Hear about best practices and innovations, including: * How to manage multi-tenant clusters in a hybrid environment * High volume data pipelines with Mirus replicating data to Kafka and blob storage * Kafka Fault Injection Framework built on Trogdor and Kibosh * Automated recovery without data loss * Using Envoy as an SNI-routing Kafka gateway We hope the audience will have practical takeaways for building, deploying, operating, and managing Kafka at scale in the enterprise.
