Starting with Kafka

In most cases, a single process app sending data to a file and a small HTTP server serving it will perform much better with less downtime.

As I understand it, this is where Redpanda enters the picture. Maybe others here disagree?

Isn‘t redpanda a reimplementation of kafka without the jvm and zookeeper? I mean how should they api compatible if they don‘t implement the same concepts.

At least it's what their homepage says and the above article suggests. Kafka 2.8.0 preview removes the need to run Zookeeper, as well, though.
