The Future of Application Development - Cloud Native Summit

Explore the future of application development in this conference talk from the Cloud Native Summit. Delve into the Kappa architecture, stream processing, and the integration of Language Models (LLMs) to revolutionize software development. Discover how the Kappa architecture, built on Apache Kafka, simplifies data pipelines by treating all data as a continuous stream. Learn about the key principles of Kappa architecture and its ability to create scalable, fault-tolerant, and low-latency applications. Gain insights into stream processing and its benefits, including stateful data processing with Flink. Quickly grasp the concept of LLMs and their potential in understanding language, generating contextual responses, and providing meaningful information. Explore real-world examples of integrating Kappa architecture with LLMs, enabling the creation of systems that leverage knowledge and human language as first-class citizens. Understand core principles of Kappa architecture, benefits of stream processing, LLM basics, prompt engineering techniques, incorporation of private data sources into LLMs, and practical use cases for LLMs in application development.
