Faust is a stream processing library that allows you to write code to process data available as streams. In this course, you'll explore the basics of stream processing and how it fundamentally differs from batch processing. You'll start by examining the components of a stream processing system architecture, specifically the role of stream transport. You'll then investigate the Faust stream processing library, which uses native Python code for transformations on streaming data. Moving on, you'll explore what's meant by producers, consumers, and topics in Apache Kafka. You'll install Faust on your local machine as well as the Apache Kafka messaging service. You'll then use these to write a stream processing application. When you're finished with this course, you'll be able to clearly articulate the characteristics of stream processing and work with Apache Kafka and Faust to perform simple operations on input streams.
