Apache Kafka, KSQL and Apache PLC4X for IIoT Data Integration and Processing
Data integration and processing in Industrial IoT (IIoT, aka Industry 4.0 or Automation Industry). Apache Kafka, its ecosystem (Kafka Connect, KSQL) and Apache PLC4X are a great open source choice to implement this integration end to end in a scalable, reliable and flexible way.
Model Serving: Stream Processing vs. RPC / REST with Java, gRPC, Apache Kafka, TensorFlow
Machine Learning / Deep Learning models can be used in different ways to do predictions. Natively in the application or hosted in a remote model server. Then you combine stream processing with RPC / Request-Response paradigm. This blog post shows examples of stream processing vs. RPC model serving using Java, Apache Kafka, Kafka Streams, gRPC and TensorFlow Serving.

Trends at JavaOne 2016: Microservices, Docker, Cloud-Native Middleware
JavaOne 2016 Trends: Besides focus on Java platform updates (Java 9, Java EE 8, etc.), I saw three hot topics, which are highly related to each other: Microservices, Docker and Cloud. I also talked about this topic from a middleware perspective. See my slides and lessons learned.
