4. “For tech to be a real driver of innovation
and growth, IT needs to reorganize itself
around flexible platforms.” —McKinsey

5. Progress so far...

6. “We are happy to announce
that starting in 2018, Netflix is
also making the transition to
Spring Boot as our core Java
framework, leveraging the
community’s contributions via
Spring Cloud Netflix.”

7. Platform at
T-Mobile
SPEED
➔Time to Prod: 6 Months to weeks
➔# of deployments: 10x increase
SCALABILITY
➔Avg: 300M Transactions a Day
➔Peak: 1Billion Transactions a Day
STABILITY
➔43% reduction in app response time
➔83% fewer incidents, fixed 67% faster

9. Full transformation required a
fundamental rethink….

10. “A business is a
series of events
and the reactions
to those events.”
—Jay Kreps, CEO, Confluent

11. “The only reason we don’t
think of events….is that so
far the technology has
trained us to think of data
as a static store.”
—Neha Narkhede

12. We restarted with
events first

13. What we’ve
learned
➔ Events are the language
bridge to the business
➔ This method of
identifying bounded
contexts is a secret to
decoupled architecture
➔ “Tell don’t ask”

15. A platform built for a new way of thinking
➔Event + Microservice first
➔Team autonomy with
platform efficiency
➔Arbitrary scaling/scope
across enterprise
➔Turnkey multi-cloud

16. Streaming Data Platform

17. Immediate impacts

18. ➔ Global banking brand building greenfield
core banking and payments with Spring
Streams + Kafka
➔ Focus on microservices velocity required
platform first thinking
➔ Kleppman like view of Kafka: “We count on
Kafka for consistency, strict ordering,
replay, durability and auditability.”
➔ Cross cloud replication
A new continuously
delivered banking
platform

19. ➔ Turning moving packages into streaming
data with RFID, Kafka and Spring Streams
event based microservices
➔ Kafka, Kubernetes and Spring Boot in
every shipping center
➔ Multiple business microservices teams
can layer onto streaming platform to bin
pack last mile services.
➔ Prepared for unanticipated uses cases
Revolutionize our

21. ➔ 100,00+ container build out of Spring
Streams, Kafka, key-value store
➔ Durability and consistency are critical
for potential legal actions
➔ Multi-phase stream processing with
Spring Streams leading to real-time
microservices alerting analysts
➔ Cross-cloud replication based on Kafka
➔ Continuously delivery required for real
time apps to improve accuracy and
functionality as project expands

23. ➔ Mainframe and monolithic RDBMS data
teams often the last to move to
continuous delivery
➔ CDC, Event Shunting, patterns
emerging allow streaming data platform
teams to offer mainframe and legacy
RDBMS events to microservices teams
➔ “AirBnB Pattern” growing across
enterprises
➔ Each team can build appropriate
persistence and achieve multi-DC
replication with streaming platform

don’t have to
The power of Kafka streams
for developers
➔ Rapid on-ramp for Kafka Streams
consumption
➔ Simplifies construction of Event-
Driven Stateful Microservices
➔ Focus on your processing logic not
on configuration
➔ Full support of all Kafka streams
functionality
