Kafka saved my "life" few times. We had TTL set to 168h and somebody pushed a change to production that silently ignored a type of message. We realized it few days later. Luckily we could re-play all of the messages after fixing the code. I know there are so many things wrong with this, yet, Kafka is excellent at storing data for medium terms and that can be a real bliss.
