Una buena introducción al mundo de Apache Kafka, con un poco de historia del porqué de su existencia.
Es breve pero conciso, con ejemplos que ayudan a dominar algunas partes de Kafka.
Después de leerlo se tiene un conocimiento fundamental que en cierta medida ayudará a resolver problemas prácticos.
Lo único que me hubiera gustado es que se tocaran temas sobre streaming.
