Involvement in the community

I'm very active in the Kafka Community in Singapore and hardly miss any of the monthly Kafka meetups. I have co-hosted Kafka meetups and as well as delivered talks in local Kafka meetups. I also conduct Kafka hands-on trainings in my company for developers new to Kafka. I have architected and designed multiple projects using Kafka and Stream processing including a realtime data pipeline using CDC, Kafka Streams and Ksqldb to support the incremental migration and modernisation of complex legacy mainframe applications to a micro services architecture.
