Why this program matters

  • Without mastering Debezium, data pipelines suffer delays of 2 to 5 hours on critical streams, costing up to 20 000€ per incident in e-commerce revenue losses.

  • Companies without real-time CDC lose 65% analytical accuracy, according to Gartner 2025, exposing them to erroneous business decisions costing millions.

  • 82% of junior data engineers are passed over for senior roles without advanced Kafka/Debezium skills.

  • Every quarter without training widens a fatal competitive gap, with competitors delivering insights that are 10x fresher and more reliable.

Program

Debezium curriculum: 3 modules over 3 days

Module 1 : Debezium Connectors: Advanced Configuration for SQL Databases (Kafka Connect, Schemas, Snapshots)

Dive into fine-tuned configuration of Debezium connectors for PostgreSQL and MySQL, install Kafka Connect in distributed mode, set up initial snapshots and WAL capture options, perform practical exercises on real test databases, generate real-time CDC events to Kafka topics, produce your first compatible Avro schemas, and validate streams using consumption tools like ksqlDB, while learning to avoid common pitfalls for immediate production deployment.

Module 2 : Advanced Debezium: NoSQL Integration and Scalability (MongoDB, Kafka Streams, Deduplication)

Explore Debezium connectors for MongoDB and Cassandra, integrate transformations with Kafka Streams to enrich CDC events, configure horizontal scalability via partitioning and offset management, practice change deduplication with custom SMTs, test real enterprise use cases like bi-directional synchronization, deploy a resilient cluster with heartbeat and tombstones, and measure performance to optimize latency under 100ms, transforming your skills into immediate business assets.

Module 3 : Debezium Monitoring: Troubleshooting and Production (Prometheus, ELK, High Availability)

Master Debezium monitoring with Prometheus and Grafana to track lags and errors, integrate logs into ELK Stack for advanced debugging, simulate database and Kafka failures to test resilience, configure high availability with persistent offsets and automatic failover, complete a full red thread project on a real-time e-commerce pipeline, produce performance reports and rollout plans, and leave with certifiable enterprise-ready skills, boosting your data pipelines by 50% in efficiency.

Our method

How Learni guarantees the quality of your Debezium training

Before, during, after: we frame the brief, introduce the trainer, tailor the content and measure impact. You stay in control from kickoff to wrap-up.

Step 1

Rigorous trainer selection

Each trainer is validated on three criteria: hands-on field expertise, proven pedagogy and alignment with your industry.

  • Triple validation: technical, pedagogical, sectoral.
  • Minimum rating 4.8/5 over the last 12 sessions.
Step 2

You meet the trainer beforehand

30-minute video call between you and the selected trainer to validate the fit, adjust content and clear any final doubts.

  • Live briefing on goals and team context.
  • Veto right — we swap the trainer for free if needed.
Step 3

Content tailored to your context

No recycled slides. The syllabus is reworked from your real cases: tools, constraints, vocabulary, ongoing projects.

  • Hands-on cases drawn from your stack and projects.
  • Program co-written then validated by your team.
Step 4

Continuous quality follow-up

Live evaluations, 30/90/180-day check-ins and a consolidation plan. If the impact misses the mark, we rework it.

  • NPS, knowledge quizzes and skills self-assessment.
  • Satisfaction guarantee: fully satisfied or free rework.

A simple promise: you don't pay to discover the trainer on day one. Everything is validated upfront, by you.
