Master Collaborator

Dear CDH and Cloudera Manager Users,

We are pleased to announce the General Availability of Apache Kafka for CDH 5. Apache Kafka is a distributed publish-subscribe messaging system. It provides:

  • High throughput and low latency

  • Scalability

  • Durability  and reliability

  • Fault tolerance

  • High concurrency

In addition to replacing traditional message brokers, Kafka is ideal for collecting user activity data, aggregating logs, obtaining operational application metrics, and device instrumentation.

As always, we welcome your feedback. Please send your comments and suggestions to the user group or through ourcommunity forums.  You can also file bugs through our external JIRA projects on issues.cloudera.org.
