Using Confluent Cloud and Kafka tooling on your laptop for solution prototyping and development.
Developing a streaming solution working against a self-managed Kafka cluster, can be awkward and time consuming, largely due to security requirements and configuration red-tape. It’s beneficial to use Confluent Cloud in the early stages to get quick progress. Creating the cluster in Confluent Cloud is super easy and allows you to concentrate on defining your Connect sources and sinks as well as fleshing out the streaming topology on your laptop. It also shows the client how easy it is to swap out the self-managed Kafka cluster with Confluent Cloud.

2018 Year in Review
A look back at the events that occurred in 2018 at Synthesis. From the annual hackathons to an office nerf war, 2018 had many memorable moments.
In 2018, Synthesis also moved to a new larger office in Melrose Arch and hosted a AWS Breakfast session for our financial services clients. The Synthesis team participated in several hackathons, and the winning teams were rewarded with an advanced driving course.
The team spent Mandela Day giving back to the community by painting several classrooms and laying down carpet at Afrika Tikkun.
