Panel Discussion about Kafka, Edge, Networking and 5G in Oil and Gas and Mining Industry
The oil & gas and mining industries require edge computing for low latency and zero trust use cases. Most IT architectures are hybrid with big data analytics in the cloud and safety-critical data processing in disconnected and often air-gapped environments. This blog post shares a panel discussion that explores the challenges, use cases, and hardware/software/network technologies to reduce cost and innovate. A key focus is on the open-source framework Apache Kafka, the de facto standard for processing data in motion at the edge and in the cloud.

Apache Kafka at the Edge and in Hybrid Cloud
I explored the usage of event streaming at the edge and in hybrid cloud scenarios in lots of detail in the past. Hence, instead of yet another description, check out the following posts to learn about use cases and architectures:
