Flume and Kafka are seen by some to serve the same functionality and often considered as mutually exclusive. This presentation is about an implementation where both are used together as parts of a heterogeneous streaming data pipeline.

The presentation will cover the evolution of the pipeline and how it grew from being designed to handle 20 billion log lines to 90+ billion log lines a day. It will also cover Flume customization for ensuring data uniqueness as well as to allow fractional bifurcation of data from production to QA systems for continuous regression testing.

Finally, the presentation will cover monitoring of the pipeline from a holistic view as well as a detailed drill-down and associated alerting.
