The Apache Kafka community is pleased to announce the release for Apache Kafka 0.9.0.1. This is a bug fix release that fixes 70 issues reported in 0.9.0.0.
All of the changes in this release can be found: https://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.cgi?path=/kafka/0.9.0.1/RELEASE_NOTES.html Apache Kafka is high-throughput, publish-subscribe messaging system rethought of as a distributed commit log. ** Fast => A single Kafka broker can handle hundreds of megabytes of reads and writes per second from thousands of clients. ** Scalable => Kafka is designed to allow a single cluster to serve as the central data backbone for a large organization. It can be elastically and transparently expanded without downtime. Data streams are partitioned and spread over a cluster of machines to allow data streams larger than the capability of any single machine and to allow clusters of co-ordinated consumers. ** Durable => Messages are persisted on disk and replicated within the cluster to prevent data loss. Each broker can handle terabytes of messages without performance impact. ** Distributed by Design => Kafka has a modern cluster-centric design that offers strong durability and fault-tolerance guarantees.
