Apologies if this is a naïve question. Kafka seems like great technology and a great companion to Akka. It has a dependency on Zookeeper, and my understanding is that's just for the watermarks. I'm not sure if this dependency on ZK is a bad thing, but I've certainly seen criticism of ZK and skeptical tweets from Jonas or Viktor about ZK. I saw that Confluent had hired a ZK committer, but I don't know if that's because they want to remove this dependency or maintain it. Akka has CRDT support and Akka Cluster has no dependencies. So I'm curious whether a Kafka competitor could be built on top of Akka Cluster. Making any sense?
