- What is Kafka?
- Is Kafka in Pega just used for queue processing?
- If not then what are the uses of Kafka in Pega?
- Can anyone drop in resource links that can help me with better understanding and setting up Kafka in Pega 8 version
Thank you!

@PoojaPalla Kafka is a high-throughput and low-latency platform for handling real-time data feeds that can be used as input for event strategies in Pega Platform™. Kafka data sets are characterized by high performance and horizontal scalability in terms of event and message queues. In Pega, Kafka is not just used for queue processing, but also for communication between Kafka brokers and Pega Platform components such as the Charlatan server and the database. The Kafka configuration in Pega can be created by following the steps listed in the Pega Community website. To set up Kafka in Pega 8 version and for better understanding, there are several resources available online such as articles and blog posts like the ones listed below. Additionally, there are also documentation and reference materials from Pega.

@PoojaPalla did the available documentation help answer your question in any way?
https://docs.pega.com/bundle/platform-88/page/platform/decision-management/kafka-operations.html
If there is anything in the documentation that is not clear, feel free to use the 'Feedback' button available beside each article to report details of what is lacking.
There are also some relevant modules on the Pega Academy site.
