A distributed messaging system that handles large volumes of event data in real time.
A messaging system designed as a high-throughput distributed log, used as the core of event-driven architectures. Unlike a typical message queue, it works as a persistent log: consuming a message doesn't delete it -- messages stay on disk for a configured retention period, so a new consumer group can be added later and reprocess history that's already been read.
