What is a Headless Data Architecture?

Jun 18, 2024 By Confluent In Confluent
The headless data architecture. Is it a fad? Some marketecture? Or something real? In this video, Adam Bellemare takes you through the basics of the headless data architecture and why it’s beginning to emerge as its own respective pattern. Driven by the decoupling of data computation from storage, the headless data architecture provides the basis for a modular data ecosystem. Stream your data for near real-time low latency use cases, or convert it to an Iceberg table for analytical use cases.

Jun 10, 2024 By README In Confluent
In part one of this series, we walked through how to use Streamlit, Apache Kafka, and Apache Flink to create a live data-driven user interface for a market data application to select a stock (e.g., SPY) and discussed the structure of the app at a high level. First, data with information on stock bid prices is moved via an Alpaca websocket, then, it’s produced to a Kafka topic in Confluent Cloud where it is also processed with Flink SQL.
