Introduction to Apache Kafka

Apache Kafka is a product that should be in every IT professional's toolbox.

Attend the webinar by developer advocate Ricardo Ferreira and learn how to use Kafka in your daily work


About the Webinar:

The use of distributed streaming platforms is becoming increasingly popular among developers, but have you ever wondered why?
Part Pub/Sub messaging system, partly distributed storage, partly CEP-type event processing engine, the usage of this type of technology brings a whole new perspective on how developers capture, store, and process events. This talk will explain what distributed streaming platforms are and how it can be a game changer for modern data architectures. We'll discuss the road in IT that led to the need of this type of platform, the current state of Apache Kafka, as well as scenarios where this technology can be implemented.

Using Git with PL/SQL in a Shared Development Database

  With Gitora 6 , developers can work on the same code base (i.e. a package, procedure etc…) in the same database without blocking each other. Many development teams use a single database for development. Many of them use the same database for testing, as well. They achieve this by using different schemas for different purposes. Gitora 6 enables these teams to create Git repos for these schemas and pull updates between them. With Gitora 6, you can even create a different schema for every developer and have them merge their code using Git. Gitora 6 enables you to implement any modern development workflow in a single database. How does Gitora 6 work? Gitora 6 introduces a new repo type called   Single Schema Repo (SSR) . As its name suggests an SSR manages database objects from a single schema. The DDL scripts in SSR’s don’t contain the schema prefixes so that Gitora can execute them in other schemas in the same database. This enables developers to work on the same package, procedure, fu

Introducing Gitora PL/SQL AI Assistant. It suggests PL/SQL code in real-time right from the Gitora Editor. This was one of the MOST INTERESTING features I've ever worked on. The first iteration is a small step in the right direction. But the possibilities are ENDLESS. I'd truly appreciate it if you could try it out and provide feedback so that I can improve it. Ideas to where to apply AI next are most welcome. You can download the editor from this link: https://www.gitora.com/plsql_editor.html
