FAQ

What is Kafka in development?

Kafka is used as a distributed event streaming platform that enables applications to publish, subscribe to, and process streams of data records in real time. It is often used to build robust, scalable, and fault-tolerant streaming applications, making it a fundamental tool for efficiently handling large amounts of data. Kafka brokers, forming a cluster that coordinates through the Raft consensus algorithm, play a crucial role in this architecture by enabling seamless coordination, leader election, and log replication without the need for an external service like Zookeeper. This integration of Raft within Kafka simplifies the architecture, eliminates dependency on an external coordination service, and enhances performance, resilience, and deployment ease.

How is Kafka used?

Apache Kafka is a powerful open source stream processing software platform developed by LinkedIn and donated to the Apache Software Foundation. It is primarily used to build real-time data pipelines and streaming applications. Kafka is used because it provides high-throughput, low-latency capabilities and supports both batch and real-time analytics. This makes it an excellent choice for organizations that require a reliable and fast system to handle real-time data feeds.

What language is Kafka written in?

Apache Kafka itself is written in Java and Scala, making it compatible with any Java Virtual Machine (JVM) environment. For Kafka client applications, developers can use many programming languages, as Kafka provides API support for many, including Java, Python, Go, C#, and more, allowing a wide range of developers to integrate with Kafka easily and efficiently.

What is Kafka Connect?

Through data integration, Kafka Connect plays a pivotal role in seamlessly integrating data into existing systems, acting as a robust framework for connecting external systems to an Apache Kafka cluster. Specifically, Kafka Connect is instrumental for integrating Kafka with various data sources and sinks, including databases, message brokers, and Hadoop platforms, supported by many open-source connectors.

How do we use Kafka to improve business operations?

We specialize in building applications that leverage Kafka’s real-time processing capabilities, particularly through Kafka Streams, to efficiently manage data streams. This approach enables us to deliver immediate business value and responsiveness by processing massive amounts of data from multiple sources in real time. By using Kafka Streams for data transformation and microservices architectures, we provide instant information critical for analytical review and operational optimization, improving organizational efficiency and unlocking new opportunities for growth and development.
