Apache Kafka Complete Course for Beginners
This crash-course video walks you through everything you need to know about Kafka—from the core concepts and “why Kafka?” to a live, hands-on Python + Docker project. You’ll see how Kafka scales, how it stacks up against other message brokers, and get a step-by-step demo of setting up a Python app, spinning up Kafka with Docker Compose, writing producers/consumers, using the CLI, testing the full data flow, and gracefully shutting everything down.
Along the way you’ll find links to the Git repo, official docs, and prep materials (Python, Docker, Docker Compose), plus handy timestamps to jump straight to each section. Whether you’re brand-new to messaging systems or just need a practical Kafka refresher, this tutorial has got you covered.
