Dive into Apache Kafka with this crash course that breaks down what Kafka is, why it’s the go-to for scalable, high-throughput messaging, and how it stacks up against other brokers. You’ll get a quick conceptual tour of Kafka’s architecture and learn exactly what problems it was built to solve.
Then roll up your sleeves for a hands-on Python + Docker demo: clone the GitLab repo, launch Kafka via Docker Compose, write and run your own producer and consumer, experiment with the CLI, and test the entire flow. Handy links to docs, code, prerequisites, and timestamped steps keep you on track.
