Apache Kafka is a event streaming platform and this video intends to explain and working of the Apache Kafka in a purely non technical way. This video will be useful for everyone want to have a basic understanding of apache kafka so that they can take an informed decision about using the same.

In this video, I've explained the concepts of apache kafka using examples like the post office. A post office work in a similar fashion as that of Apache kafka because when people send or receive letters, they don't worry about the postal network, similarly with kafka, the events producers and event consumers will work without worrying about the underlying architecture of the enabler entity which is apache kafka in this case.

I've also talked about the databases in comparison to apache kafka and why its a better idea to use apache kafka for having mechanisms like event streaming. Its not that you can't do it with the database, but kafka makes it easy to implement the same.

I've also touched upon the architecture topics of apache kafka including the topics and partitions. Kakfa topics are the way of handling the different event streams and the topics can be scaled or made fault tolerant using partitions.

I hope and believe that this video will help you in understanding the basics of apache kafka in the easiest possible way. Here are the contents of this video
