Scaling Customer Engagement with Apache Pulsar
Iterable's platform is used by marketers to reach hundreds of millions of users every day, and those numbers are quickly growing. Iterable's infrastructure is built with pub-sub messaging at it's core, so the reliability, scalability and flexibility provided by that system are business critical.
In this talk we'll discuss why Iterable chose Pulsar as a pub-sub messaging system, as well as how Iterable is taking advantage of some of more recently added features in Pulsar. We'll also talk about some of the challenges we encountered, where we think Pulsar can improve, and some contributions we've made to the open source community around Pulsar.
