Kafka

While the generally supported opinion is that we are still a number of years away from a functional quantum computer, there is a significant quantum computing-related problem that needs to be considered right now.

uLinga for Kafka, widely recognised as the best solution for integrating NonStop applications with Kafka, and uLinga Gateway, the newest product in the uLinga suite, have recently been enhanced to add powerful data transformation capabilities. 

My sons went to public elementary school before we started homeschooling. At the earliest opportunity, they were put in ‘honors’ math. Suddenly I was exposed to new teaching methods and had to

Apache Kafka, one of the world’s most popular solutions for streaming massive amounts of data, continues to grow in popularity. At the recent NonStop TBC, Infrasoft saw this in sharp focus, with a number of customers and HPE NonStop partners talking to us about potential NonStop-Kafka use cases.

HPE NonStop users are becoming more familiar with Kafka, as Kafka in turn becomes more and more prevalent inside those large environments where the NonStop platform is often present.  Kafka is being used by thousands of companies, including 60% of the Fortune 100. 

Many financial services companies are operating on technology stacks that aren’t up to the challenge of today’s market. Incredibly, some banks are operationally dependent on technology that was installed in the ’70s or ’80s.

NonStop TBC 2022 kicked off a new round of modernization with a friendly competition to come up with a sustainable design to replace SCOBOL requesters with the latest and greatest tech available on and off NonStop.

In the Sept-Oct 2021 edition of The Connection, we gave an overview of Kafka, and how it is being used by many Fortune 500 companies to manage “streams” of data, which have become prevalent as internet usage massively boosts the amount of data being generated, and requiring processing. Kafka allows these huge volumes of data to be processed in real-time, via a combination of “producers” and “consumers”, which work with a Kafka “cluster” – the main data repository.

One of the best ways to modernize NonStop is to integrate its applications with other software, platforms and cloud services. This interoperability is extremely important as it will extend the value of the NonStop applications, and underscore the flexibility of the platform in the enterprise.

There have been so many phrases concerning data thrown around in the business press. Data is the new currency of business! Enterprises have become data driven!

Dear NonStop Community, The days get shorter and gold leaves sputter across driveways as another year winds down to a

There’s been a lot of talk over the last few years about Kafka, but what is it, and how might it impact NonStop applications and data? According to the Kafka Apache project, Kafka is “the most popular open-source stream-processing software for collecting, processing, storing and analyzing data at scale.” Kafka is used by thousands of companies, including 60% of the Fortune 100. Well known users in the finance space include Goldman Sachs, Rabobank, Barclays, Jack Henry and PayPal, and household names that use Kafka include Netflix, Oracle, LinkedIn and AirBnB.
