THE FUTURE IS HERE

Deep Learning with the Apache Kafka® Ecosystem

Intelligent real time applications are a game changer in any industry. Deep Learning is one of the hottest buzzwords in this area. New technologies like GPUs combined with elastic cloud infrastructure enable the sophisticated usage of artificial neural networks to add business value in real world scenarios. Tech giants use it e.g. for image recognition and speech translation. This session discusses how any company can leverage deep learning in real time applications.

The session demos how to deploy Deep Learning models built with TensorFlow, DeepLearning4J or H2O into real time applications to do predictions on new events. The Apache Kafka open source ecosystem can be used to train, apply and monitor deep learning models in a highly scalable and performant way. The examples focus on Apache Kafka and Apache Kafka’s Streams API.
