Closed this issue · 1 comments

Experiment with different message brokers other than Kafka like Redis, KafkaMQ etc.
Primary reason for looking for the different options for message brokers are:
- Most of the message processing in the system are real-time in nature, which doesn't required any persistence once consumed.
- Current version of the Kafka is difficult to manage and setup for both Production as well as development setup.
Checklist for a potential message broker
- Ability to scale horizontally.
- Message delivery guarantee should be atleast once, better if exactly once.
- Real time messaging.
- Should support multiple subscription to a single topic/queue.
- Should support consumer group conceptually.
- Strong ordering of messages at group level for a topic.
- Easy to setup and operate (Nice to have).
- High throughput.
