About the Apache Kafka

Apache Kafka is an open-source, distributed event streaming platform originally developed at LinkedIn. It is designed for building real-time data pipelines and streaming applications. Kafka's architecture is based on a distributed commit log, which provides high throughput, scalability, and durability. It enables producers to publish streams of data to topics and consumers to subscribe to those topics. Unlike traditional messaging systems, Kafka retains data in a fault-tolerant log, allowing multiple consumers to read and re-read data at their own pace.
