Kafka Streams हा stream processing साठी एक लायब्रेरी आहे — Kafka topics मध्ये डेटा रिअल टाइमने प्रक्रिया आणि रूपांतर करणारे applications बनवणे (filtering, transforming, aggregating, joining streams). हे Kafka वर सरळ रिअल-टाइम डेटा प्रक्रिया सक्षम करते.
Stream processing म्हणजे काय
STREAM PROCESSING → process data CONTINUOUSLY as it arrives (in real time), vs batch
(processing stored data periodically):
→ consume events from topics, transform/analyze them, produce results (often to other topics)
→ real-time: react to and process events as they happen (low latency)
→ for: real-time analytics, transformations, monitoring, enrichment, aggregations
