StreamSets + Kafka: Match Made in Heaven

Data engineers are data professionals that are tasked with creating and maintaining complex systems that are capable of collecting, storing, and analyzing big data for companies. The way Kafka treats the concept of data is entirely different from what we have thought of data to be. Kafka provides a more robust, fault tolerant and distributed messaging/streaming technology. StreamSets makes it easy to build pipelines that capture event-based data for streaming analytics and process it in-flight to fuel your real-time applications with DataOps.
