How does one validate the keys is really from the genuine entity or someone who has hijacked the conduit.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Event Streaming</title><link>https://samarthya.me/posts/event-streaming/</link><pubDate>Thu, 20 Jan 2022 08:06:56 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://samarthya.me/posts/event-streaming/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;While reading Apache &lt;code&gt;Kafka&lt;/code&gt; it was interesting analogy that they described&lt;/p&gt;&#10;&lt;div class="lead text-neutral-500 dark:text-neutral-400 !mb-9 text-xl"&gt;&#10; Event streaming is the digital equivalent of the human body&amp;rsquo;s central nervous system.&#10;— Apache Kafka&#10;&lt;/div&gt;&#10;&#10;&lt;p&gt;It draws a great parallel between how the central nervous system allows for real time event generations and consumption in terms of reflex actions. The examples are well explained and captured &lt;a href="https://kafka.apache.org/powered-by" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
