Kafka: The Heartbeat of Data Streaming

Kafka serves as a powerful distributed data source optimized for ingesting, processing, and streaming data from multiple sources simultaneously. It functions effectively as a writer-appender log, enabling unique use cases such as acting as a database and facilitating sequential or incremental data processing. A common application of Kafka is in building data pipelines to transfer information between systems or acting as a message broker in event-driven architectures. This integration allows different applications to communicate seamlessly by emitting messages about relevant events, thus streamlining interactions across various systems.
