Run Slow LLM Jobs Outside FastAPI with Redpanda in Python

About this lesson

Event-driven LLM jobs with FastAPI and Redpanda: return fast while workers retry, replay, and process independently. Learn the pipeline pattern that streams slow LLM jobs as events (confluent_kafka / librdkafka), letting FastAPI acknowledge immediately and enabling durable retries, replayability, and observability. Walk through producer/consumer patterns, retry lanes, and results topics in Python to scale low-latency APIs for long-running model calls.
