Anna, a customer success technical architect at Confluent, shares her insights on the core concepts of Kafka Streams, including the all-important table and stream abstractions. They delve into the benefits of statefulness and durability, such as active and standby tasks, which ensure seamless failover, and how Kafka Streams stores state in RocksDB and in Kafka itself.
