Kafka - Interview Questions
Differentiate between Kafka and Java Messaging Service(JMS).
Java Messaging Service(JMS) Kafka
The push model is used to deliver the messages. Consumers receive messages on a regular basis. A pull mechanism is used in the delivery method. When consumers are ready to receive the messages, they pull them.
When the JMS queue receives confirmation from the consumer that the message has been received, it is permanently destroyed. Even after the consumer has viewed the communications, they are maintained for a specified length of time.
JMS is better suited to multi-node clusters in very complicated systems. Kafka is better suited to handling big amounts of data.
JMS is a FIFO queue that does not support any other type of ordering. Kafka ensures that partitions are sent in the order in which they appeared in the message.
