Kafka and Go - consuming messages

// Björn Gylling

How do you approach using Kafka to store your data when building a HTTP api? In this series we build an application which would traditionally be backed by a classic database, the basic ‘Create-Read-Update-Delete’ api. Instead of a traditional database we store our data in Kafka and over the series look at some of the issues with this approach and how you can solve them.

Upgrade to Spring Boot 2.7 and Spring Native 0.12

// Magnus Larsson

It has been a year since the 2’nd edition of my book on building microservices with Spring Boot, Spring Cloud, Kubernetes, and Istio was published. Since then, many new versions of the tools and frameworks used in the book have been released. In this and a few following blog posts, I will describe how to upgrade the source code in the book to use the latest versions.

Go Generics in functional style

// Erik Lupander

I recently needed to group, aggregate and filter some form data from our yearly tech radar (2021 installment, Swedish). Instead of coping with an ever-increasing amount of frustration with Google Sheets, I decided to massage the data using Go 1.18 and the lodash-inspired lo library.

Kafka Summit London 2022

// Andreas Mossljung

En rapport från Kafka Summit i London som avslutades i går. Äntligen gick det att träffas på riktigt efter alla online-konferenser och vi var över 1000 deltagare som samlats på hotellet i Greenwich. Pandemin verkar man nu definitivt lämnat bakom sig i England och förutom några få som bar munskydd var allt som vanligt igen.

Dynamic Multi Tenancy with Spring Boot, Hibernate and Liquibase Part 7: Combining the Shared Database pattern with Database per Group of Tenants (a.k.a. Shard) for additional scalability

// Björn Beskow

In the last part, we implemented the Shared Database with Discriminator Column pattern using Row Level Security. The Shared Database with Discriminator pattern scales very well, but eventually the Shared Database will become a bottleneck. In this part, we’ll tweak the Database per Tenant pattern into Database per Group of Tenants (or Shard). Combined with the Shared Database with Discriminator pattern, we can reach yet another level of scalability.

Dynamic Lists with SwiftUI Using Swift Concurrency for Asynchronous Data Loading

// Anders Forssell

In a previous blog post, I described an implementation of lists in SwiftUI where items are loaded dynamically as the the user scrolls and additional data for each item is fetched asynchronously. I also wanted to provide a reusable infrastructure for lists where you could concentrate only on the data fetching logic and the presentation of a single list item, but didn’t quite reach that goal.

In this blog post, I try to improve the list infrastructure and the separation of concerns between the data model and UI. I also want to test the Swift Concurrency features (async/await etc) for the asynchronous parts, and see how well it plays with SwiftUI.

Path tracing with Golang and OpenCL, part 1

// Erik Lupander

Back in 2020 I spent an unhealthy amount of time implementing The ray tracer challenge book in Go, which I also blogged about. After finishing the book, I re-purposed the codebase into a simplistic Path Tracer. While the results were rather nice compared to the quite artificial ray traced images, basic unidirectional path tracing is really inefficient, taking up to several hours for a high-res image.

This “just for fun” blog series is about how I used OpenCL with Go to dramatically speed up my path tracer. Part 1 deals with the basics of path tracing while latter installments will dive deeper into the Go and OpenCL implementation.

Energy monitoring with AWS services and Go, part 3.

// Erik Lupander

This is the third part of a short blog-series about using CDK and AWS services to build and deploy a personal solution for monitoring electricity usage. This part is just a little follow-up on how the solution is doing, some improvements and most importantly - the costs I’ve been billed since the solution’s inception back in april.

Application Integration With Kafka - Part 1.

// Martin Holt

There is no denying the growing popularity of Kafka as a platform. It is probably safe to say that Kafka is now the de facto solution for asynchronous integration using a pub/sub pattern. Given the profusion of Kafka providers and solutions it has never been easier to get started.

If you are starting out on your journey to integrate applications with Kafka there are some important aspects that you will want to consider to in order to guarantee smooth operation at scale. In this two part blog I will look at some of these aspects and give some advice for potential Producers and Consumers.

This blog series will focus on the Apache Kafka Java client. Part one focuses on the Producer.
