This crash course walks you through Apache Kafka’s core concepts—why it was built, how it scales, and how it stacks up against other message brokers—then jumps into a hands-on Python + Docker project. You’ll clone the GitLab repo, spin up Kafka with Docker Compose, write and run a producer and consumer, play with the Kafka CLI, and test the end-to-end flow, all broken down step by step.
Ideal for anyone with basic Python and Docker know-how, the video packs handy timestamps, links to the official docs, prerequisite tutorials, and even a free month of PyCharm Pro (thanks to JetBrains) so you can dive in immediately.
