Apache Kafka is a publish-subscribe messaging system written in Java and developed by the Apache Software Foundation. Kafka is designed to be scalable and distributed and integrates with tools such as Hadoop and Storm for streaming data.
Apache Kafka is a hands-on guide filled with practical illustrations for setting up Kafka clusters and shows the reader how Kafka blocks fit together to leverage Big Data and stream it to multiple consumers in a few seconds. It further explains the use of administration tools and how replication works in Kafka.
This book gives an overview of consumer configuration and the use of Kafka tools. It is a beginner’s guide for software developers and can be used by application developers and Big Data enthusiasts who have initially worked with other publisher-subscriber-based systems.
