Overview
Develop, scale, and troubleshoot event-driven microservice applications.
Learn to use Kafka and AMQ Streams to design, develop, and test event-driven applications. Event-driven microservices scale globally, store and stream process data, and provide low-latency feedback to customers. This course is for application developers and is based on Red Hat AMQ Streams 1.8 and Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform 4.6. The Red Hat Certified Specialist in Event-Driven Development with Kafka exam (EX482) is included in this offering.
Course summary
- Describe the basics of Kafka and its architecture.
- Develop applications with the Kafka Streams API.
- Integrate applications with Kafka Connect.
- Capture data change with Debezium.
- Troubleshoot common application streaming issues.
Audience for this course
Application developers with microservice development experience.
Prerequisites
- Application developers with microservice development experience.
- Experience with microservice application development and design, such as DO378 or equivalent experience.

Impact on the organization
Organizations are recognizing that traditional synchronous applications are not able to scale consistently and adjust to the massive amounts of data from customers while still meeting customers’ expectations of immediate results. With event-driven applications using Kafka and AMQ Streams, organizations can expect to be able to globally scale their applications, store and stream process data, and provide feedback to customers with extremely low latency.
Impact of this training
As a result of attending this course, students will understand the architecture of Kafka and AMQ Streams and will be able to identify proper use cases for event-driven applications. In addition to learning the fundamental principles and features of Kafka and AMQ Streams, Students will learn how to design, develop, and test event-driven applications.
Students should be able to demonstrate the following skills:
- Design, build, and use event-driven applications for relevant scenarios with standard patterns.
- Detect and react to data changes with Debezium to improve application performance.
- Troubleshoot common problems with event-driven applications.

If it doesn’t work, try adjusting your settings or contact your IT department about permitting the website.
How do QA’s online courses work?
QA online courses, also commonly known as distance learning courses or elearning courses, take the form of interactive software designed for individual learning, but you will also have access to full support from our subject-matter experts for the duration of your course. When you book a QA online learning course you will receive immediate access to it through our e-learning platform and you can start to learn straight away, from any compatible device. Access to the online learning platform is valid for one year from the booking date.
All courses are built around case studies and presented in an engaging format, which includes storytelling elements, video, audio and humour. Every case study is supported by sample documents and a collection of Knowledge Nuggets that provide more in-depth detail on the wider processes.
When will I receive my joining instructions?
Joining instructions for QA courses are sent two weeks prior to the course start date, or immediately if the booking is confirmed within this timeframe. For course bookings made via QA but delivered by a third-party supplier, joining instructions are sent to attendees prior to the training course, but timescales vary depending on each supplier’s terms.
