This document discusses Kappa Architecture, which is a data processing architecture using Apache Kafka as the centralized data backbone. It summarizes Jay Kreps' original definition of Kappa Architecture and describes how it provides a more flexible way to do real-time and batch processing compared to the traditional Lambda Architecture. The document also provides an example of how a company implemented Kappa Architecture using Kafka and Spark Streaming to monitor car telemetry data from many vehicles and support flexible real-time queries over that data.
