Today on the InfoQ Podcast, Wes Reisz speaks with Colin McCabe about Apache Kafka’s KRaft mode. Colin is a principal engineer with Confluent working on the scalability and performance of Apache Kafka. KRaft mode is the new operating mode of Apache Kafka released with 3.3.1 and is the new target architecture for Kafka metadata (the current roadmap will completely deprecate Zookeeper in Kafka in the 4.0 release). On the podcast, Wes and Colin discuss KRaft mode and what it means for the Kafka ecosystem.
