Apache Kafka is a distributed event store and stream-processing platform. It is an open-source system developed by the Apache Software Foundation written in Java and Scala.The project aims to provide a unified, high-throughput, low-latency platform for handling real-time data feeds.
In distributed systems, events represent a fact or state change (e.g., OrderPlaced) and are typically broadcast asynchronously to multiple consumers, promoting loose coupling and scalability. While events generally don’t expect an immediate response, acknowledgment mechanisms are often implemented at the infrastructure level (e.g., Kafka ...
The pub/sub pattern scales well for small networks with a small number of publisher and subscriber nodes and low message volume. However, as the number of nodes and messages grows, the likelihood of instabilities increases, limiting the maximum scalability of a pub/sub network. Example throughput instabilities at large scales include:
Other examples of real-world systems that use Rendezvous Hashing include the Github load balancer, [10] the Apache Ignite distributed database, [11] the Tahoe-LAFS file store, [12] the CoBlitz large-file distribution service, [13] Apache Druid, [14] IBM's Cloud Object Store, [15] the Arvados Data Management System, [16] Apache Kafka, [17] and ...
Sequence diagram for depicting the Message Broker pattern. A message broker (also known as an integration broker or interface engine [1]) is an intermediary computer program module that translates a message from the formal messaging protocol of the sender to the formal messaging protocol of the receiver.
Examples of commercial implementations of this kind of message queuing software (also known as message-oriented middleware) include IBM MQ (formerly MQ Series) and Oracle Advanced Queuing (AQ). There is a Java standard called Java Message Service, which has several proprietary and free software implementations.
Consumer to consumer (or citizen-to-citizen) electronic commerce involves electronically facilitated transactions between consumers through some third party. A common example is an online auction , in which a consumer posts an item for sale and other consumers bid to purchase it; the third party generally charges a flat fee or commission .
