Kappa Architecture

A Kappa Architecture is a streaming data architecture that processes all kappa architecture data through a single kappa architecture stream processing pipeline, treating kappa architecture batch processing as kappa architecture stream replay over kappa architecture historical data.

• Context:
  • It can typically simplify Kappa Architecture System Complexity by eliminating kappa architecture batch layers.
  • It can typically enable Kappa Architecture Code Reuse through kappa architecture unified processing logic.
  • It can typically support Kappa Architecture Reprocessing through kappa architecture stream replay mechanisms.
  • It can typically maintain Kappa Architecture Single Source of Truth through kappa architecture event logs.
  • It can typically provide Kappa Architecture Real-Time Views through kappa architecture continuous computations.
  • ...
  • It can often reduce Kappa Architecture Operational Overhead through kappa architecture single pipeline management.
  • It can often improve Kappa Architecture Development Velocity through kappa architecture unified codebase.
  • It can often enable Kappa Architecture Time Travel through kappa architecture historical replay.
  • It can often support Kappa Architecture Schema Evolution through kappa architecture backward compatibility.
  • ...
  • It can range from being a Simple Kappa Architecture to being an Enterprise Kappa Architecture, depending on its kappa architecture scale requirements.
  • It can range from being a Single-Stream Kappa Architecture to being a Multi-Stream Kappa Architecture, depending on its kappa architecture pipeline complexity.
  • ...
  • It can contrast with Lambda Architecture by avoiding kappa architecture dual pipelines.
  • It can integrate with Kappa Architecture Message Buses for kappa architecture event storage.
  • It can connect to Kappa Architecture Stream Processors for kappa architecture computation engines.
  • It can interface with Kappa Architecture Serving Layers for kappa architecture query support.
  • ...
• Example(s):
  • Kappa Architecture Implementations, such as:
    • LinkedIn Kappa Architecture for kappa architecture real-time analytics.
    • Netflix Kappa Architecture for kappa architecture event processing.
    • Uber Kappa Architecture for kappa architecture streaming platform.
  • Kappa Architecture Components, such as:
    • Kappa Architecture Message Bus for kappa architecture event retention.
    • Kappa Architecture Stream Processor for kappa architecture computation layer.
    • Kappa Architecture Serving Database for kappa architecture query layer.
  • Kappa Architecture Patterns, such as:
    • Event Sourcing Kappa Architecture for kappa architecture event-driven system.
    • CQRS Kappa Architecture for kappa architecture read-write separation.
  • ...
• Counter-Example(s):
  • Lambda Architecture, which maintains separate batch layers and speed layers rather than kappa architecture unified pipelines.
  • Traditional Data Warehouse Architecture, which uses periodic ETL rather than kappa architecture continuous streaming.
  • Microservices Architecture, which focuses on service decomposition rather than kappa architecture data flow.
