Description: Kafka Streams is a client library designed to build applications and microservices that process real-time data streams, where input and output data are stored in Apache Kafka clusters. This tool allows developers to create applications that can read, transform, and write data efficiently and at scale. Kafka Streams integrates natively with Kafka, making it easy to manipulate data in motion and enabling real-time event processing. Among its most notable features are the ability to perform aggregation, joining, and filtering operations on data streams, as well as the capability to maintain application state using local storage. Additionally, Kafka Streams is highly scalable and fault-tolerant, making it an ideal choice for applications that require high availability and performance. Its design allows applications to be easy to implement and maintain, using a functional programming model that simplifies the development of complex processing logic. In summary, Kafka Streams is a powerful tool for real-time data processing, combining the robustness of Kafka with the flexibility needed to build modern and efficient applications.
