This class teaches Apache Pulsar fundamentals. You will:

• Learn key concepts of using Apache Pulsar through hands-on lab exercises.
• Create an end-to-end application using both messaging and streaming models supported by Apache Pulsar.
• Design applications for high throughput using partitioned topics, work queues, and keyed data streams.
• Examine use cases for scheduling messages, rewinding data streams, and quickly accessing summarized data.
  Preview the Use Case and Messaging Basics course modules.

This course is designed for application developers, ETL (extract, transform, and load) developers, architects, and data scientists who need to interact with Pulsar clusters as a source of data, or destination for data.

• 1-2 years of programming experience.
• You will need to setup your own development environment using Java 17 and Maven. IntelliJ is recommended as the IDE with a free community version available. It is highly recommended you setup this environment prior to the start of the course. StreamNative Training can provide access to code samples to test connectivity to the StreamNative Hosted Pulsar Cluster.
• You do NOT need to setup a Pulsar cluster as tenant access is provided in a StreamNative Hosted Pulsar cluster for the duration of the course.

This course uses a blended learning model that combines lectures, videos, lab exercises, quizzes, and instructor-led sessions for questions and troubleshooting the labs.

You will have access to an Apache Pulsar trainer and hands-on coding labs, including:

• Up to 6 hours of self-paced learning & hands-on exercises for 3 days (total 18 hours of content)
• Three one-hour sessions with the StreamNative Technical for questions and troubleshooting
• Access to a tenant in a StreamNative Hosted Pulsar cluster to complete coding exercises

• Course Setup - recommended to complete before start of class
• Use Case
• Messaging Basics
