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.
Download Apache Kafka from: http://www.cloudera.com/
