Chapter 1. Overview of AMQ Streams


Red Hat AMQ Streams is a massively-scalable, distributed, and high-performance data streaming platform based on the Apache Zookeeper and Apache Kafka projects. It consists of the following main components:

Zookeeper
Service for highly reliable distributed coordination.
Kafka Broker
Messaging broker responsible for delivering records from producing clients to consuming clients.
Kafka Connect
A toolkit for streaming data between Kafka brokers and other systems using Connector plugins.
Kafka Consumer and Producer APIs
Java based APIs for producing and consuming messages to and from Kafka brokers.
Kafka Streams API
API for writing stream processor applications.

A cluster of Kafka brokers is the hub connecting all these components. The broker uses Apache Zookeeper for storing configuration data and for cluster coordination. Before running Apache Kafka, an Apache Zookeeper cluster has to be ready.
