Big Data Quality must always be verified to ensure that data is safe, accurate, and complete. Data is moved through multiple IT platforms or stored in Data Lakes. The Big Data Challenge: Data often loses its trustworthiness because of (i) Undiscovered errors in incoming data (iii). Multiple data sources that get out-of-synchrony over time (iii). Structural changes to data in downstream processes not expected downstream and (iv) multiple IT platforms (Hadoop DW, Cloud). Unexpected errors can occur when data moves between systems, such as from a Data Warehouse to a Hadoop environment, NoSQL database, or the Cloud. Data can change unexpectedly due to poor processes, ad-hoc data policies, poor data storage and control, and lack of control over certain data sources (e.g., external providers). DataBuck is an autonomous, self-learning, Big Data Quality validation tool and Data Matching tool.

Apache Kafka
Apache Kafka® is a robust, open-source platform designed for distributed streaming. It can scale production environments to accommodate up to a thousand brokers, handling trillions of messages daily and managing petabytes of data with hundreds of thousands of partitions. The system allows for elastic growth and reduction of both storage and processing capabilities. Furthermore, it enables efficient cluster expansion across availability zones or facilitates the interconnection of distinct clusters across various geographic locations. Users can process event streams through features such as joins, aggregations, filters, transformations, and more, all while utilizing event-time and exactly-once processing guarantees. Kafka's built-in Connect interface seamlessly integrates with a wide range of event sources and sinks, including Postgres, JMS, Elasticsearch, AWS S3, among others. Additionally, developers can read, write, and manipulate event streams using a diverse selection of programming languages, enhancing the platform's versatility and accessibility. This extensive support for various integrations and programming environments makes Kafka a powerful tool for modern data architectures.
