I'd start on the Wiki: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/Index
And the presentations: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/Kafka+papers+and+presentations Also the archives for this list are sometimes informative: http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/kafka-users/ Hope this helps, Chris On Fri, Apr 26, 2013 at 12:21 PM, Oleg Ruchovets <oruchov...@gmail.com>wrote: > Thank you Chris.
