Real-Time Analytics and Monitoring Dashboards with Apache Kafka and Rockset
In the early days, many companies simply used Apache Kafka® for data ingestion into Hadoop or another data lake. However, Apache Kafka is more than just messaging. The significant difference today is that companies use Apache Kafka as an event streaming platform for building mission-critical infrastructures and core operations platforms. Examples include microservice architectures, mainframe integration, instant payment, fraud detection, sensor analytics, real-time monitoring, and many more—driven by business value.

Bitcoin is a decentralized digital currency that you can buy, sell and exchange directly, without an intermediary like a bank. Bitcoin’s creator, Satoshi Nakamoto, originally described the need for “an electronic payment system based on cryptographic proof instead of trust.” Each and every Bitcoin transaction that’s ever been made exists on a public ledger accessible to everyone, making transactions hard to reverse and difficult to fake. That’s by design: Core to their decentralized nature, Bitcoins aren’t backed by the government or any issuing institution, and there’s nothing to guarantee their value besides the proof baked in the heart of the system. “The reason why it’s worth money is simply because we, as people, decided it has value—same as gold,” says Anton Mozgovoy, co-founder & CEO of digital financial service company Holyheld.
