- dkersten 13y agoFrom my reading of it (and my use of Kafka in the past, as an input to Storm), Kafka is a message queuing system, where Kinesis is a message processing system. That is, Kafka is more similar to SQS or RabbitMQ and Kinesis is more similar to Storm or S4. Of course, I haven't used kinesis and have only glanced at the docs, so I could be wrong - it could very well be that Kinesis is the glue between data input and data processor rather than the data processor itself, in which case, yeah, it looks a lot like Kafka.
