The opportunity AI creates in healthcare workforce planning isn’t about doing new things. It’s about fixing what already isn’t working, with tools current systems were never designed to be. Scheduling platforms got upgraded. Labor dashboards exist. Workforce analysts were hired. Some…
Event Streaming Platforms & Kafka Architecture
The backbone of real-time enterprise data flow
Apache Kafka is the standard for enterprise event streaming — but deploying Kafka at scale requires architectural decisions that determine reliability, cost, and operational burden for years. We design, deploy, and operate production Kafka environments that handle millions of events per second with the fault tolerance and delivery guarantees enterprise operations require.
- Apache Kafka cluster design — broker topology, partition strategy, replication factors, and retention policies for your throughput and durability requirements
- Managed Kafka deployment — Confluent Platform, Azure Event Hubs, Amazon MSK, and Google Pub/Sub for cloud-native event streaming
- Kafka Connect ecosystem — source and sink connectors for ERP, CRM, EHR, databases, and cloud platforms without custom integration code
- Schema Registry implementation — Avro, Protobuf, and JSON Schema management for contract-first event-driven architectures
- Topic design and partition optimisation — event modelling, key strategy, compaction policies, and consumer group management
- Kafka operations and monitoring — consumer lag alerting, cluster health dashboards, rebalancing management, and capacity planning
