Confluent Developer ft. Tim Berglund, Adi Polak & Viktor Gamov
Hi, we’re Tim Berglund, Adi Polak, and Viktor Gamov and we’re excited to bring you the Confluent Developer podcast (formerly “Streaming Audio.”) Our hand-crafted weekly episodes feature in-depth interviews with our community of software developers (actual human beings - not AI) talking about some of the most interesting challenges they’ve faced in their careers. We aim to explore the conditions that gave rise to each person’s technical hurdles, as well as how their experiences transformed their understanding and approach to building systems.
Whether you’re a seasoned open source data streaming engineer, or just someone who’s interested in learning more about Apache Kafka®, Apache Flink® and real-time data, we hope you’ll appreciate the stories, the discussion, and our effort to bring you a high-quality show worth your time.

Scaling Apache Kafka with Todd Palino
Todd Palino, a senior SRE at LinkedIn, talks about the start of Apache Kafka® at LinkedIn, what learning to use Kafka was like, how Kafka has changed, and what he and others in the community hope for in the future of Kafka. If you’re curious about life as an SRE, Todd shares the details on that too, and goes into how Kafka is used at LinkedIn, as well as several wins and challenges over the years with the product.
