Hi Kafka Fans, We just pushed an update to the website. We changed the byline from "Kafka is a pub-sub system rethought as distributed log" to "Kafka is a stream platform" - because this reflects the modern use of Kafka a lot better and stream processing systems are the use-cases we optimize for. We also added amazing diagram to the front page.
And by "we" I mean Jay Kreps did all that :) I'm kinda proud that Kafka is a project where the docs are so valued that Kafka founders work on the docs. It is what makes Kafka one of the best Apache projects out there. Comments, improvements, and contributions are welcome and encouraged. -- Gwen Shapira
