About This Course

This course will teach you valuable techniques and principles for dealing with distributed streaming applications using Lightbend Cloudflow. It is a conceptual, rather than a coding course.

We will cover streamlets and their applications, how streaming applications are wired together and the design choices made for Cloudflow.

This course will show how Cloudflow can dramatically accelerate streaming application development — reducing the time required to create, package, and deploy — from weeks to hours.
