- nicois 9y agoI have a tiny PR for the python redis client. Makes it even easier to see the power of this pattern. I'm in the process of using streams to shift away from legacy tight coupling of databases to async operations. The real killer feature for us is being able to grab a prod backup, spin it up in a Dev environment and watch it pull all the unprocessed messages in, until it has caught up. Really powerful and safe for replicating unexpected behaviour..

Kafka used to store consumer offsets in Zookeeper and now it stores them in a dedicated consumer offsets topic.
