A bit about Kafka

Things you need to know about Kafka before using any Kafka Consulting company

What is Kafka?

Kafka is a distributed, scalable publish-subscribe messaging system for real-time data processing and stream processing, serving as a central hub for real-time data feeds.

What are Message Queues?

Message Queues are asynchronous communication mechanisms for decoupled applications to exchange messages, improving scalability and reliability

Why use Message Queues?

Message Queues are a useful tool that can integrate easily and empower your project with many benefits, such as:

  • Decoupled communication between applications
  • Improved scalability and reliability
  • Asynchronous processing and handling of messages
  • Load balancing and message prioritization
  • Durable storage of messages for guaranteed delivery
  • Supports processing of large volumes of messages.

Why use Kafka?

Of the many benefits Kafka offers, here are a few examples:

  • Kafka provides a highly scalable and distributed architecture for handling large amounts of real-time data streams
  • It offers low latency and high-throughput for both producing and consuming data, making it suitable for handling real-time data feeds
  • The publish-subscribe pattern in Kafka allows for decoupled communication between producers and consumers of data, making it easy to add new consumers or producers without affecting the others
  • The built-in partitioning and replication of data in Kafka ensures high availability and fault tolerance of data, making it a reliable solution for mission-critical data
  • The data in Kafka is stored as a log with strong durability guarantees, allowing for efficient recovery from failures and easy reuse of data for multiple use-cases and applications.
