Dynamic Broker-Side Filtering for Kafka

Session Abstract

KAFKA-6020 has been open for 7 years. This talk demos broker-side filtering for Kafka with sub-millisecond latency (p99 < 25ms). Live demo with working code shows how it reduces network costs, simplifies consumers, and enables new use cases. Real-world validation from financial services and logistics deployments.

Session Description

Watch a live implementation of broker-side filtering that solves a 7-year-old debate. You’ll see working code, performance benchmarks, and real production deployments from financial services and logistics. Leave with an open-source solution you can deploy immediately—no vendor lock-in, just pure Kafka with sub-millisecond filtering that cuts network traffic by 60-80%. Perfect for real-time analytics and compliance monitoring.
