Kafka is relatively stable and has a active well-supported news-group as well.
As discussed by Brian, you would be inverting the paradigm of store-process. Essentially in your original approach, you are storing the messages first and then processing them after the fact. In the Kafka model, you would process the messages as they come in. Since you are thinking about parallelism anyways, I trust that your processing paradigm is inherently paralleizable.
