Apache Kafka Streams

Capable of processing millions of events per second with low latency, as emphasized in the key features for building high-performance data pipelines and mission-critical applications.

Persists event streams in a replicated, distributed log ensuring data reliability, which is core to its design for handling real-time data feeds with high availability.

Includes Kafka Streams library for real-time analytics directly within the platform, reducing dependency on external frameworks, as noted in the built-in stream processing feature.

Horizontally scalable design allows easy expansion to handle increasing loads, supporting distributed event streaming across large-scale systems as described in the architecture.
