Ever heard of Apache Kafka? It is a distributed streaming platform.
Neha Narkhede is the CTO of Confluent. During SpringOne Platform 2018 event below, she went on an explained Kafka Streaming Plarform.

A streaming platform has three key capabilities:

• Publish and subscribe to streams of records, similar to a message queue or enterprise messaging system.
• Store streams of records in a fault-tolerant durable way.
• Process streams of records as they occur.

Kafka is generally used for two broad classes of applications:

• Building real-time streaming data pipelines that reliably get data between systems or applications
• Building real-time streaming applications that transform or react to the streams of data
