1. Message Redelivery: An Unexpected Journey​

David Kjerrumgaard, Developer Advocate, StreamNative

Understanding Pulsar’s redelivery semantics is critical for preventing duplicate or out-of-order processing when message acknowledgments are not received. This talk walks you through the redelivery semantics, highlights some of the mechanisms available to application developers to control this behavior, and provides best practices for configuring message redelivery to suit various use cases.

2. Is Using KoP (Kafka-On-Pulsar) a Good Idea?​

Ricardo Ferreira, Senior Developer Advocate, AWS

Learn how to unlock infinite event stream retention, a rebalance-free architecture, native support for event processing, and the multi-tenancy with Apache Pulsar for your microservices written for Apache Kafka. This talk dives into the architecture of protocol handlers and how KoP (Kafka-on-Pulsar) works.

3. Cross the Streams! Creating Streaming Data Pipelines with Apache Flink + Apache Pulsar​

Caito Scherr, Developer Advocate, Ververica

Learn how to build a unified batch and streaming pipeline from scratch with Apache Pulsar and Flink SQL in this step-by-step demo. Leverage the power of Apache Flink, a high-speed, customizable stream processing engine, without the steep learning curve.
