Introduction to Kafka

Kafka acts as a kind of write-ahead log (WAL) that records messages to a persistent store (disk) and allows subscribers to read and apply these changes to their own stores in a system appropriate time-frame.

Terminology:

• Producers send messages to brokers
• Consumers read messages from brokers
• Messages are sent to a topic

Deploy your site with git

This gist assumes:

• you have an online remote repository (github / bitbucket etc.)
• you have a local git repo
• and a cloud server (Rackspace cloud / Amazon EC2 etc)
  • your (PHP) scripts are served from /var/www/html/
  • your webpages are executed by Apache
• the Apache user is named www-data (may be apache on other systems)

Vagrant Setup

This tutorial guides you through creating your first Vagrant project.

We start with a generic Ubuntu VM, and use the Chef provisioning tool to:

• install packages for vim, git
• create user accounts, as specified in included JSON config files
• install specified user dotfiles (.bashrc, .vimrc, etc) from a git repository

Afterwards, we'll see how easy it is to package our newly provisioned VM
