How to Measure the ROI of Value Stream Management - Listing

Apache Kafka

 Apache Kafka is an open-source distributed event streaming platform designed for building real-time data pipelines and streaming applications. It allows systems to publish, store, process, and subscribe to streams of records or events in a fault-tolerant and highly scalable way. Kafka enables real-time data integration and processing by decoupling systems that send data from systems that receive data and ensures durability and order of data. Kafka is commonly used for real-time analytics, log aggregation, and building event-driven architectures.
