kafka used for a chat system backend

2015-11-06 Thread S Ahmed
Hello,

I have read a few sites that *might* be using kafka for a real-time chat
system.

I say might because in their job descriptions they hinted toward this.

If there are people out there using kafka as a backend for a real-time chat
system, can you explain at a high level how the data flows?


Thanks!
