Now, you will learn about the Kafka architecture and also take a look at the different components involved in it.
In this video, you looked at the architecture of Kafka and the different components that constitute the system the system. A Kafka cluster is a group of brokers. Since Kafka is a distributed system, we need something to manage the state, and this is where ZooKeeper comes to our rescue. Inside the brokers, there are topics that are responsible for storing the messages inside them. Producers take message or data from the source and write them to these topics. Then, there is a consumer who can subscribe to topics and read the messages that are being pushed to these topics.
You will learn more about these components in the next session.
