Upcoming community event

Apache Kafka Meetup Bangalore, August 2026

A morning for engineers working on lakehouse formats, dependable ingestion, and production data platforms. The program moves from the evolution of Apache Iceberg to the failure modes that appear when Kafka ingestion jobs run for hours or days.

The event

What the room will explore

The August gathering brings storage format evolution and operational ingestion reliability into one room. These topics meet in real systems, where a modern table format is only useful when the pipeline feeding it can survive rebalances, retries, and long-running synchronization.

The event is hosted by ZopDev in HSR Layout. Entry requires the registration steps described on the official Meetup page, so attendees should complete both the RSVP and the linked entry form before arriving.
