Kafka for .NET Developers
summary
Introduces Kafka basics with concrete .NET code: creates a producer/consumer (string,string), runs Kafka in Docker Compose, shows console producer/consumer, Kat and Kafka UI, and a small CLI transmogrifier that sends and consumes messages. Explains partitions, consumer groups, offsets, and how many partitions you need using queueing math. Covers delivery reports, an outbox pattern, a Confluent JSON serializer with schema registry byte layout, and transactional/acks settings (acks=all, retries, max.in.flight) for reliable delivery.
