I find that if you are seeking lots of consumers around large topics no amount of RAM is really sufficient, and if you are mostly sticking to the tails like a regular Kafka user, even 64GB is usually way more than enough. CPU isn't usu

I don't know if this is the only reason, but mass storage devices seem to have a ludicrously unacceptably high failure rate and short lifetime to be something I key large potions of my life to.

Kafka is also a system that can make pretty good general use of more CPUs and more storage, but doesn't have much need for RAM. Tying the CPU and RAM together whether by CPU model or cloud vendor offerings is annoying if you're tr

The kind of server you'd run Kafka on tends to already be pretty far up the curve. I don't think I can get 10x our default broker for 20x the cost. Maybe 100x the cost. (I could probably get 2x it for 2x the cost but once you valu

Cute, but over years of explaining it I think any explanation of Kafka that presents it as a queue is bound to leave the reader with more misaligned expectations than when they started (while also making them think they learned something, w

Depending on the function you may even be able to use "two for one" hashing, splitting e.g. a single 64 bit hash into two different 32 bit ones and combine those. https://arxiv.org/abs/2008.08654

Given how many people made the same reading (even to the point of the same joke), I'd argue they're arbitrary rules applied largely consistently , except when some marketing droid shows up.

There is also nobody claiming to be a pony. If you're a trans woman you shouldn't be baited so easily. I assure you they would keep "hate criming" you no matter how many cartoons you like.

VMWare wants your authentic self to work, unless of course your "authentic self" has opinions. (Anyone thinking this about "the pony" is missing the point, probably disingenuously so.)

Your critique only makes sense if she's working for the DoD, or negotiating those contracts for VMWare, or VMWare's business is significantly DoD contracts, none of which are true.
