This article explores the design and implementation of such a system using Confluent Kafka, a powerful distributed streaming platform. In this tutorial, you'll delve into the mechanics of Kafka and then integrate it with Go to develop a realtime notification system.Apache Kafka is an open source distributed publishsubscribe messaging platform purposebuilt to handle realtime streaming data for distributed streaming. Kafka is a distributed system consisting of servers and clients that communicate via a high-performance TCP network protocol. LogScale uses Apache Kafka internally for queuing incoming messages and for storing shared state when running LogScale in a cluster setup. LogScale uses Apache Kafka internally for queuing incoming messages and for storing shared state when running LogScale in a cluster setup. In the consumer app, we will have to set up the kafka config and the websocket configuration.
