Derek Chia, Principal Support Engineer at ClickHouse

Karthikayan Muthuramalingam, Solutions Engineer at Confluent In this Kuala Lumpur meetup that happened on December 11, 2024, Derek Chia and KK Muthuramalingam explored how these two tools work together to build high-performance analytics services. KK delivered an "Apache Kafka 101" overview, explaining Kafka's purpose, outlining a typical Kafka architecture and its core components, and tying it all together by exploring the concept and workings of an “event streaming platform.” Derek highlighted the ClickHouse and Kafka integration in a live demo of how to set up ClickPipes for Kafka.
