What is Apache Kafka? 

Apache Kafka is designed to handle real-time data feeds that provide a high-throughput, resilient, and scalable solution for processing and storing streams of records. The platform ensures durability by replicating data across multiple brokers in a cluster.

Kafka’s exceptional speed is coordinated by two key virtuosos:

Sequential I/O: Kafka addresses the perceived slowness of disks by brilliantly implementing Sequential I/O.

Zero Copy Principle: With this principle, Kafka avoids unnecessary data copies and reduces context switches between user and kernel modes, making it more efficient. 

High performance: It has the capability to handle millions of messages per second

Non-volatile storage: It stores messages on disk, which enables durability and fault-tolerance

 Distributed architecture: It can handle large amounts of data and scale horizontally by adding more machines to the cluster.
