alt Hacker NewsI was in the midst of writing a snarky reply and then realized my actual issue with Kafka is that people reach for it way too often and use it in ways that don't really make sense.
Kind of like how people use docker for evrything, when what you really should be doing is learn how to package software.
Ops here, Docker is packaging software.
Agree on the Kafka thing though. I've seen so many devs trip over Kafka topics, partitions and offsets when their throughput is low enough that RabbitMQ would do fine.
