What is the difference between kafka and flume?
Answer / Rahul Rastogi
Kafka and Flume are both data streaming platforms but they serve different purposes and have distinct characteristics:
1. Kafka focuses on real-time data streams, while Flume focuses on collecting and moving large amounts of log data.
2. Kafka has a publish-subscribe model for data consumption, while Flume follows the producer-consumer model.
3. Kafka is designed for high throughput and low latency, while Flume emphasizes reliability and fault tolerance.
