Kafka Lag on Cyber Monday: How to Get Back to Green.
Cyber Monday is November 30.
What happens when your sale goes too well? Traffic spikes, brokers slow down, consumers fall behind, and someone in Slack asks "when will orders be back to normal?" Nobody can answer, because offset lag doesn't tell you anything about time.
Ben Gamble and Jeremy Frenay will take a live Kafka cluster under pressure and show you how to:
→ Spot which consumers are falling behind
→ Find the bad records holding everything up
→ Predict when you'll be back to green, with time-based lag your stakeholders can actually understand
Who it's for: platform engineers, SREs, and anyone on call for Kafka during peak season.
Tell us your toughest lag question when you register and we'll try to answer it live. Can't make it? Register anyway and we'll send you the recording.
