Apache Kafka - Real-time Stream Processing (Master Class) - Kafka Consumer - Scalability, Fault tolerance and Missing Fe

The video tutorial discusses the Kafka validation pipeline, focusing on reading messages from Kafka topics, validating them, and writing results to separate topics or storage systems. It highlights the challenges of scaling consumer processes and managing offsets to ensure real-time processing and fault tolerance. The tutorial explains how to use partitions and consumer groups to scale consumption and manage offsets to avoid duplicate processing. It introduces Kafka Streams API as a solution for complex stream processing tasks, offering a more efficient way to handle real-time data processing.
