Kris Jenkins:
Hello. You're listening to Streaming Audio. And once again, I'm going to hijack the podcast quickly to tell you about a new episode of Coding in Motion, the gradually growing web series where we build interesting event systems completely from scratch.
This time we're going to focus on Python with Kafka, and we're going to use it to retrofit YouTube with a real-time alert system. Along the way, we'll take in some Python generators, a bit of KSQL for streaming processing, and we're going to build out a chatbot customized for alerting. It's something that I needed to build for myself, and it turns out to be I think a fairly reusable recipe for all kinds of third-party systems monitoring, so I'm hoping plenty of you will find it useful too.
The episode premieres on YouTube on the 21st of September, Earth, Wind, and Fire Day. And I'll be hanging out in the live chat to answer any questions you have. You'll find a link in the show notes and I hope you'll join me there.
