Summary

The author has written a detailed report comparing Apache Pulsar and Apache Kafka, discussing reasons for choosing one over the other. They have added to their previous list of seven reasons with additional points such as multi-tenancy support, quorum replication, tiered storage, end-to-end encryption, stateless components, automatic broker load balancing, and a growing community. The author believes that Pulsar is a legitimate alternative to Kafka, offering similar functionality but with several advantages. They recommend evaluating Apache Pulsar for streaming and queuing systems.
