Kafka Streams

Kafka Streams is a software library that helps you process and analyze data in real-time as it flows through your system. Imagine data as a continuous stream of messages, like messages in a chat or transactions in a bank. Kafka Streams allows you to filter, transform, and combine these messages instantly, enabling quick insights and responses. It works seamlessly with Apache Kafka, a platform for handling large amounts of data efficiently. In short, Kafka Streams makes it easier to build applications that act on live data quickly and reliably.
