Make it easier to work on integrations with Kafka

Any messages that appear in the app can be published in a special Kafka topic. For example, every ERP system document or every user action on the site: clicks, adding to favorites, adding/removing from the “Cart”, filling out forms, page views (and its depth) — can be sent and distributed according to specially defined Kafka topics. Thus, other topics (consumers) can subscribe to the topics they need for various purposes — monitoring, analysis, reporting, personalization, etc.

Kafka allows you to keep logs and monitor logs. You can publish logs to Kafka topics, and logs can be stored and processed in a cluster for as long as you need. If you have a dedicated monitoring app, it will be able to get real-time data from Kafka topics.

Kafka adds each message to the journal (saves it to disk) and stores it there until the log is cleared of old messages, which the user assigns in advance. This allows Kafka to be used as a reliable data source (unlike RabbitMQ, which deletes messages immediately after delivery).
