In this episode of PithorAcademy Presents: Deep Dive, we explore the role of Kafka Brokers—the backbone of every Apache Kafka cluster. Understanding brokers is key to learning how Kafka achieves scalability, resilience, and fault tolerance in real-world deployments.

We cover:

• Brokers in a Cluster – the foundation of distributed Kafka

• Leader Election – ensuring coordination and consistency

• Failover Handling – resilience when brokers go down

• Scaling Kafka Horizontally – adding brokers to handle more data

By the end, you’ll understand how brokers enable Kafka to stay highly available, scale seamlessly, and deliver reliable real-time event streaming at massive scale.
