Hello World, Simple Event Broker

Thanks, great question!

My strategy was to start out by implementing the underlying storage primitives first, and then look into which transport to implement later. The transport of course can have a large impact on the required storage primitives, but in my case I built it the other way around since I knew what primitives I would need in my applications.

I've been playing with the thought of implementing (parts of) the Kafka API, but I honestly haven't considered the transport that much yet :)

Reading, 'ensuring that data is actually written and stays written is rather difficult', immediately reminded me of https://github.com/microsoft/FASTER (its not written in Go though), which is basically dealing with just that outlet ( except I think the KV store might be ram heavy, been a bit since I last looked at it )

Hadn't heard of this - it looks very interesting. Thanks for the reference!
