There are many use cases from piping website activity tracking, metrics, log aggregation and stream processing. For us, it's a communication layer utilized by our microservices. An event goes into the stream and any services that cares about that data will consume it. In other words, it's like an ultra-resilient, scalable, redis pub-sub with history that runs on the JVM. You can read more about the use cases here: https://kafka.apache.org/uses
edit: Sidenote, Kafka is often waaaaaay overkill - if you need messaging, use something simpler like Rabbit or NATS or Redis and only use Kafka if you know why you need it.
It's definitely on our roadmap to fix. Thank you for the feedback!
