Microservices get a lot of traction these days. They allow multiple teams to work independently from each other, choose their own technology stacks and establish their own release cycles.

Apache Kafka is breaking barriers and eliminating the slow batch processing method that is used by Hadoop. This is just one of the reasons why Apache Kafka was developed in LinkedIn. Kafka was mainly developed to make working with Hadoop easier. True that it is eliminating the limitations of Hadoop – but it will not eliminate Hadoop itself. Apache Kafka is an enabler – a fault tolerant, publish-subscribe message broker.

In 2015, I fell in love. This was when my love affair with tech began. I had always been fascinated by tech and innovation, but never to the extent that I would consider working in the field. In 2014, I surprisingly started working in a startup software development house, and was introduced to agile methods and the software development world. Later in 2015, I stumbled upon Zalando’s focus on autonomous teams and soon after began working in their newly opened Helsinki Tech Hub.

Learning how to use technology and learning how it works are two very different, yet critical, educational issues. It’s safe to say that today’s kids are using the latest smartphones, tablets, and laptops with little to no instructions.
