Low Latency Edge Data Streaming With Kafka and Cloud-Native 5G Infrastructure

Many mission-critical use cases require low latency data processing. Running these workloads close to the edge is mandatory if the applications cannot run in the cloud. This blog post explores architectures for low latency deployments leveraging a combination of cloud-native infrastructure at the edge, such as AWS Wavelength, 5G networks from Telco providers, and event streaming with Apache Kafka to integrate and process data in motion.
