dual-stream-architecture

To publish events to Kafka and Redis Pub/Sub simultaneously, use a dual-stream architecture pattern where an ingester feeds a dual-publisher, sending data to Kafka for durable storage and Redis for low-latency real-time notifications.

A dual-stream event publishing pattern routes data to both Kafka and Redis Pub/Sub concurrently. You need this dual-stream approach when building event-driven systems like live dashboards that require guaranteed durable delivery alongside immediate low-latency updates.

Yes, you can use Redis Pub/Sub and Kafka together for a WebSocket backend. The dual-stream architecture ensures critical events are durably stored in Kafka so they are not lost during system failures, while Redis handles the instant notifications.

Yes, the dual-stream architecture pattern supports high-throughput batch publishing. It defines clear channel naming conventions for efficient event routing and scales to handle scenarios requiring both guaranteed delivery and high-volume real-time updates.

Using both Kafka and Redis Pub/Sub instead of just one ensures event data is both durably stored and instantly accessible. Kafka provides guaranteed delivery and durability, while Redis Pub/Sub provides the low-latency updates required for real-time applications.
