Kafka for Rubyists

by Mark Phelps —

A brief introduction to Apache Kafka and how you may be able to leverage it in your applications.

Comments

Kafka is great, but last I heard, both poseidon_cluster and kafka-consumer still have issues when running in a clustered environment (e.g. failover and rebalancing). Not a reason to avoid it, just something to keep in mind when you go to scale up.
