AD482 – Developing Event-Driven Applications with Apache Kafka and Red Hat AMQ Streams

AD482 – Developing Event-Driven Applications with Apache Kafka and Red Hat AMQ Streams develops practical capability in event-driven application development with Apache Kafka and AMQ Streams, producers, consumers, schemas, serialization, streams, connectors, transactions, security, testing, observability, and OpenShift deployment.

The course progresses through Kafka and AMQ Streams Architecture, Topics, Partitions, Replication, and Clients; Producers, Consumers, Serialization, Schemas, Consumer Groups, and Delivery; Kafka Streams, Connectors, Transactions, Error Handling, and Security; Testing, Observability, Performance, OpenShift Deployment, and Operations. Each lesson connects Red Hat technology with implementation choices, security, validation, troubleshooting, and support responsibilities.

Learners work through a development team building reliable event-driven services on Red Hat OpenShift and produce a practical Kafka application repository, event contracts, automated tests, and OpenShift deployment portfolio that can support implementation, review, and operational handover.

What You Will Learn

• Explain Kafka and AMQ Streams architecture as applied to Kafka and AMQ Streams development in realistic Red Hat environments.
• Configure topics, partitions, and replication for Kafka and AMQ Streams development using clear prerequisites and repeatable steps.
• Apply producer and consumer development to a production-focused Kafka and AMQ Streams development scenario.
• Validate serialization and schema management for Kafka and AMQ Streams development with observable evidence and acceptance criteria.
• Troubleshoot consumer groups and delivery semantics in Kafka and AMQ Streams development through targeted checks and corrective testing.
• Compare streams, connectors, and transactions options for Kafka and AMQ Streams development and justify the selected approach.
• Document security, testing, and observability for Kafka and AMQ Streams development review, support, and operational handover.
• Improve OpenShift deployment and operations in Kafka and AMQ Streams development through monitoring, automation, and governance.
