Apache Kafka (Real-Time Streaming) Course in Hyderabad

Build real-time event streaming pipelines with Apache Kafka

The Apache Kafka course teaches you to design and run real-time event streaming systems. You start with messaging and event-driven architecture, then study Kafka's core concepts: topics, partitions, offsets, brokers, replication and consumer groups. You install and operate a Kafka cluster in KRaft mode, which is the only mode supported since Kafka 4.0 removed ZooKeeper, and you write producers and consumers in Python or Java with serialisation using Avro or JSON Schema and a schema registry. Later modules cover delivery semantics, idempotent producers and transactions, Kafka Connect for moving data to and from databases and storage, Kafka Streams and ksqlDB for stream processing, security with TLS and ACLs, monitoring and performance tuning, and integration with Apache Spark and Apache Flink at an overview level. The course suits developers, data engineers and DevOps professionals with basic programming and Linux knowledge. Labs run in Docker, and the capstone streams events from a source database into an analytics store. Classes run in Ameerpet, Hyderabad, and in live online batches.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Apache Kafka (Real-Time Streaming) course syllabus cover?

12 sections: Event Streaming Fundamentals, Kafka Architecture, Setup & Command-Line Tools, Producers, Consumers & Consumer Groups, Schemas & Serialisation, Kafka Connect, Stream Processing: Kafka Streams & ksqlDB, Transactions & Exactly-Once Processing, Security & Governance, Operations, Monitoring & Tuning and Cloud Services, Integration & Capstone. It includes 5 projects: Order Event Pipeline, Database Change Capture, Real-Time Metrics with Streams and 2 more.

Do I need to know Java for Apache Kafka?

No. Kafka clients exist for Python and other languages, and labs use Python, with Java shown for Kafka Streams. Basic programming helps.

Is ZooKeeper still needed?

No. Kafka 4.0 removed ZooKeeper, and clusters run in KRaft mode, which is what the course teaches. Older clusters may still use ZooKeeper, so the course explains the migration path.

How is Kafka different from RabbitMQ?

Kafka stores events in a replicated log that consumers can re-read, which suits streaming and high throughput. RabbitMQ is a message broker focused on queues and routing.

Is Spark Streaming covered?

Structured Streaming with Kafka is introduced at overview level. The PySpark and Apache Spark course covers it in depth.

Can I use Kafka on the cloud?

Yes. Managed options such as Confluent Cloud, Amazon MSK and Event Hubs are explained, and labs use Docker locally to avoid cost.

Is there a Kafka certification?

Confluent offers certification exams. Exam details were not researched for this course, so a counsellor will confirm current options. The course does not guarantee a pass.

Which jobs use Kafka?

Roles include Kafka developer, streaming data engineer, backend developer and integration engineer. Outcomes depend on projects and interviews and are not guaranteed.

How long is the Apache Kafka (Real-Time Streaming) course at GloryTecks, and how many hours a week?
