Hermes – A message broker built on top of Kafka
Can someone help me understand the value proposition for Hermes? The only thing I can see is that it abstracts away producing to and consuming from Kafka. The use cases provided answer why you&#x27;d use a message broker system, but not why you&#x27;d want to do it over HTTP.<p>Edit: I understand HTTP is easier than Kafka, but is this something developers really struggle with when adopting Kafka? My experience is that they struggle with the nuances, behavior, and maintenance of Kafka&#x2F;ZooKeeper more than anything.<p>I also didn&#x27;t see how it dealt with concepts like exactly once delivery - any experiences in that area?
