About Apache Kafka

Apache Kafka was created in 2011 by engineers at LinkedIn, including Jay Kreps, Neha Narkhede, and Jun Rao. It was developed to handle the company's need for a robust and scalable messaging system to manage large volumes of real-time log data.

Strengths of Apache Kafka include high throughput, scalability, fault tolerance, and durability. Weaknesses involve complexity in setup and management, and potential challenges with data consistency. Competitors include Apache Pulsar, RabbitMQ, and Amazon Kinesis.
