Hello and welcome to my comprehensive collection of Apache Kafka learning materials. This repository is designed to be a centralized resource for anyone looking to learn or deepen their knowledge of Apache Kafka, regardless of their experience level.
This collection encompasses a wide range of materials organized by and suited to different learning preferences and skill levels. From in-depth guides and documentation to interactive exercises, I've gathered resources to cater to a variety of needs.
If you have a resource that could benefit others in their understanding of Apache Kafka, I encourage you to contribute. To submit a resource, please open an issue in the following format:
- Name: Title of the resource.
- Link: URL or location of the resource.
- Description: A brief summary of the resource.
- Source: The origin or creator of the resource.
- Skill Level: [Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced].
- Resource Type: [Video, Documentation, Guide or Tutorial, Blog Post, Book or Article, FAQ, Newsletter].
- Interactivity: [Hands-on Exercise, Quiz or Test, Community Forum].
- Language: [Java, Python, .NET, Go, JavaScript, Other].
I regularly review submissions to ensure the repository remains up-to-date and valuable for learners at all levels.
To keep things organized and easily accessible, I’ve implemented a simple, streamlined process. All the resources are stored in an AirTable spreadsheet, which acts as the central hub for all the content. This approach allows me to maintain and update the resources efficiently. Whenever there's a change in the contents of the spreadsheet, a script is executed to update this very README.md page. This process ensures that the information you see on this page is current and reflects the contents of the AirTable spreadsheet.
Your input and participation are what make this repository a valuable resource for everyone. If you have any questions or ideas, please don't hesitate to reach out. It is my goal to ensure that this repository remains a top-notch resource for Apache Kafka knowledge. Thank you for visiting and contributing to this collaborative effort. Together, we can make learning Apache Kafka accessible and effective for everyone.
Happy Learning!
