Hi Good evening from India๐ I am using Kafka(confluent Platform) since long time. Its actually a message broker in simple term which can persist data on disk for short time in days or weeks. It acts like a buffer in between message producer and message consumer. Kafka reduces loading of consumers by acting as a buffer in real time data processing apps. In short.. you can achieve lose coupling between producers and consumers using kafka. (Asynchronous communication) And there are lot of other features like Rest Proxy, connectors, Schema Registry etc. you need to invest time in reading for good returns in long term ๐
I hope it helps. Cheers, Sunil.
