SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill addresses the challenge of ensuring both the durability of event data and its immediate, real-time delivery to end-users or systems.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Simultaneous Publishing: Events are published to both Kafka (for durability) and Redis Pub/Sub (for real-time) concurrently.
  • Guaranteed Delivery & Instant Updates: Caters to systems needing both reliable data storage and low-latency notifications.
  • Use Case: Powering a live trading dashboard where price updates must be instantly visible to users while also being reliably stored for historical analysis.

Quick Start

Publish an event using the dual-stream architecture pattern.

FAQPage Schema
How do I publish events to Kafka and Redis Pub/Sub concurrently for real-time and durable delivery?

Concurrent event publishing utilizes a Go implementation to send data to Kafka for guaranteed durability and Redis Pub/Sub for low-latency real-time delivery simultaneously. This dual-stream approach supports applications like live dashboards requiring instant updates and reliable storage.

What is a dual-stream architecture for event-driven systems?

Dual-stream architecture is an event-driven pattern combining Kafka for data durability and Redis Pub/Sub for low-latency real-time delivery. It solves the problem of ensuring reliable event storage while providing instant updates to systems like WebSocket backends or live dashboards.

When do I need to use both Kafka and Redis Pub/Sub for event delivery?

You need both Kafka and Redis Pub/Sub when your event-driven architecture requires guaranteed message persistence alongside low-latency notifications. A common use case is a live trading dashboard where price updates must be instantly visible yet reliably stored for historical analysis.

Does this dual-stream pattern support batching for Kafka and Redis concurrent publishing?

Yes, the dual-stream concurrent publishing implementation in Go supports batching capabilities for both Kafka and Redis clients. This allows efficient event processing while maintaining guaranteed delivery and instant updates across both streams.

What is the best way to handle guaranteed message persistence and real-time updates in Go?

The best way to handle this in Go is using a dual-stream event publishing mechanism that concurrently publishes to Kafka for guaranteed message persistence and Redis Pub/Sub for real-time updates. This approach efficiently supports event-driven architectures needing both reliability and low latency.
