Coin Cap Data Consumer | Part 4 | Java, REST, WebSocket, Kafka, Docker, Maven, Spotless

Hello guys,

In this part, conclude our project by putting the messages into the kafka sink. We will use docker and kafka to simplify the setup

The list of technologies used in this project:

Java: The main programming language used to develop the application.
Maven: A build automation tool used primarily for Java projects.
Kafka: A distributed streaming platform used for building real-time data pipelines and streaming apps.
Docker: A platform to develop, ship, and run applications inside containers.
WebSocket: A communication protocol providing full-duplex communication channels over a single TCP connection.
REST API: A set of rules that allow programs to talk to each other. The developer creates the API on the server and allows the client to talk to it.
Spotless: A code formatting plugin used in the project to ensure code consistency.
Log4j: A reliable, fast, and flexible logging framework (APIs) written in Java.

Whether you’re a beginner looking to learn more about data consumption or a seasoned developer interested in expanding your toolkit, we hope this video has provided valuable insights. As always, the best way to learn is by doing. So, don’t hesitate to clone the project, play around with the code, and experiment with different scenarios.
