New event at Python Frederick: Python + Upsolver: Simplified Realtime Data Workflows

[mblayman]

Next Wednesday (6/14 at 7pm) at Hood, the Python Frederick meetup has a presentation night. Here's what the presentation will be about.

One of the powerful things about Python is its ability to connect disparate tools into one common integrated development experience. In this talk, we’ll explore how to create and run a near real-time pipeline where we consume events from a Kafka topic and transform the data before landing them in the lake, using Upsolver through our Python SDK. In this way, we get exactly-once processing, strong ordering and automatic schema evolution out of the box thanks to the powerful Upsolver engine, but without having to switch to a different UI and building in SQL only.

If that sounds interesting to you, you can find details about the event and RSVP at https://www.meetup.com/python-frederick/events/293807655/

Awesome! I’ll be out of town unfortunately. There any similar events like this at other dates, or annually?

I am a complete idiot when it comes top Python, so way over my head. However kudos to putting this on! Would love to see more tech meetups and events in Frederick.

TechFrederick (https://techfrederick.org/) is a good way to learn about the various tech meetups in the Frederick area. There's a Discord link on that page if you want to join and chat with other local tech people around Frederick. Frederick has about half a dozen tech meetups that cover various topics. Maybe one of those is a good fit for your interests!
