Getting Data In

Pulsar vs Kafka

Explorer

I'm working on enhancing our data pipeline by leveraging the use of a messaging bus such as Kafka or Pulsar.  Both are enticing options, however they each come with their own advantages and drawbacks.  This installation will be dedicated to Splunk, so no shared messaging busses interfering with our logging needs.  I would love to know what have been the experiences of the user community when using either of these platforms?  Why did you choose one over the other?  Have you regretted the choice and why?

Thanks.
