An update about Redis developments in 2019
There seems to be a chronic need in the Redis community to avoid confrontation (or even be bucketed) in the same space as Kafka.<p>Redis Streams is probably one of the most path-breaking things that Redis is doing - and can completely change what it stands for. That&#x27;s not a bad thing..but it doesn&#x27;t even get a title by itself but is rather called &quot;data structures&quot;.<p>Here&#x27;s a question - do you anticipate competing with Kafka? There are a lot of us that are cheering Redis on for this...but it seems there is internal reluctance.<p>It&#x27;s like the long standing &quot;Redis is not memcached&quot; statement - even WordPress has a &quot;choose Redis or memcached for object caching&quot; option.
