Kafka is open source and has a strong community behind it, so it's not surprising that developers who want to build scalable, high-performance data streams like it. Great post.
Like every great piece of tech, Kafka was born from a good challenge: to provide a unified, high-throughput, low-latency platform for handling real-time data feeds. Also, open source.
With great power comes great responsibility on configuring it. Sometimes an approach of a self-managed service providing more limited configurations, but taking care of what's important for the customers of that service, can serve better the 80% of the use cases.
But for the 20% that need the customization, we need these tools!
Great content bro
