On Oct 28th, we had a deep-dive technical chat with a team of storage experts at LinkedIn that built Apache Kafka® and Apache Samza®. 1hr 30mins prior to the presentation, I had a single slide with my name on it. Luckily, the conversation quickly moved into details of memory pressure of the per core data structure materialization and we felt right at home.

Thanks to the storage and stream processing teams at LinkedIn for having us. Always fun to nerd out on tech. Stay tuned until the end for 30 mins of Q&A.

Sign up for our Community Slack (here!) and engage with us on twitter via @redpandadata or personally at @emaxerrno

Special thanks to Noah, Sarah, and Denis for helping me put together a presentation one hour before the meeting.
