In Factored systems, decoupling microservices with asynchronous messaging like Kafka allows for greater resilience and fault tolerance during outages, unlike synchronous communications.
Kafka topics act as scalable buffers, allowing services to communicate even during peak loads or outages, which helps prevent cascading failures and data loss.
By visualizing Kafka concepts through the lens of Factorio's supply chain mechanics, we find parallels that enhance understanding of asynchronous communication in distributed systems.
Just like in Factorio, increasing the throughput and scalability of your system through additional infrastructure mirrors how Kafka allows for enhanced message processing capabilities.
