Webinars

The webinar provides an introduction to some of the technologies and design patterns used to build out scalable and resilient applications. The technologies covered include Cassandra, Kafka, Spark, and Elasticsearch. The webinar also touches on different architecture options when combining these leading open source technologies into an overall solution.

Instaclustr recently extended their managed service for Apache Cassandra to include support for Apache Kafka, this presentation will walk through the key challenges and lessons learned in extending Instaclustr’s provisioning and management system for Kafka. Specific details will include: benchmarking, choosing appropriate cloud provider configurations, and security configuration.

Instaclustr’s Managed Platform simplifies and accelerates the delivery of reliability at scale through open source solutions. By providing Apache Cassandra, Apache Kafka, Elasticsearch, Apache Spark, and other leading open source technologies through single environment, Instaclustr make it easy to deliver applications at any scale and, most importantly, operate them at the highest levels of reliability. Instaclustr provides the benefits of open source without the risk and costs of learning to manage it yourself.

Topics, partitions and keys are foundational concepts in Apache Kafka. When building an application, correctly modeling your use case using these concepts will be key to making optimal use of Kafka and ensuring the scalability and reliability of your application. This webinar will walk through these key Kafka concepts and the main design consideration when choosing how to apply them to your application.

This webinar walks through the key features and benefits of Instaclustr’s Managed Kafka. Discover how Instaclustr have applied its vast technical experience running distributed systems to deliver the most reliable Kafka managed service available.

Kubernetes has become the most popular container orchestration and management API with cloud-native support from AWS, GCP, Azure, and a growing enterprise support ecosystem. Leveraging Kubernetes to provide tested, repeatable, deployment patterns that follow best practices is a win for both developers and operators. In this talk Ben Bromhead, CTO of Instaclustr will introduce the Cassandra Kubernetes Operator, a Cassandra controller that provides robust, managed Cassandra deployments on Kubernetes.

Competing globally means processing billions of mobile, online, and in-store transactions while meeting Payment Services Directive (PSD2). In the financial services market the demand to support hundreds of thousands of merchants in over a hundred currencies and providing transaction history for customers dating back seven or more years, requires a data platform and cloud services that will support scalable agility and flexibility. In this webinar, presented by AWS and Instaclustr, we discuss how to utilize AWS and Open Source Solutions to keep up with the competitive demands of the industry.

The presentation surveys the functionality of Instaclustr’s core offerings—Managed Apache Cassandra, Apache Spark, Elasticsearch, and Apache Kafka and walks through uses of these technologies in real-world application patterns. It also touch on key considerations when choosing these technologies for your application architecture and different architecture options when combining these leading open source technologies into an overall solution.

Adoption of open source software (OSS) at the enterprise level has flourished, as more businesses discover the considerable advantages that open source solutions hold over their proprietary counterparts, and as the enterprise mentality around open source continues to shift. This webinar series will focus on a few of the key benefits of open source software for the enterprise.

Kinetic Data and Instaclustr partners up to walk through the benefits of a low-code platform built on Cassandra. This webinar will also discuss the modern business approach to open source and enterprise software deployment and the pitfalls associated with technology lock in.
