Re:What every software engineer should know about Apache Kafka by manigandham on Saturday May 16, 2020 @09:02PM (#23208495)
It's not a real database and doesn't promise ACID though. I think it's fine with the understanding that it's an incremental eventually-consistent materialized view engine that works seamlessly with Kafka, especially if you're already a heavy user.

Otherwise loading data into a real database/data warehouse and using ETL with triggers/views/aggregations is better if you need advanced querying rather than a simple stream to table transforms.
