What is Kafka?
Kafka is a tool that helps move large amounts of data quickly and reliably between systems. It works like a messenger that collects and delivers data in real-time or later, making it useful for both live and stored data processing.

Kafka was developed by Linkedin and open-sourced under the Apache software foundation.
