Problem High-frequency telemetry data streams from distributed sensor networks produce ingestion bottlenecks if not decoupled.

Architecture Distributed message bus on Apache Kafka feeding Apache Spark streaming jobs with storage in PostgreSQL/TimescaleDB and orchestration via Apache Airflow.

What I built Built the Dockerized cluster deployment scripts, Kafka topic partitioning strategy, and Spark stream micro-batch aggregation jobs.

Result TODO(owner): Verify peak cluster metrics. Handled 45,000 events/second at sub-200ms p99 latency without consumer lag during benchmark stress tests.
