Kafka Backlog #03
Welcome to the first edition of Kafka Backlog #03, a monthly series here on Topic:Igor where I share articles and pieces I find valuable but never manage to tweet.
I try to post just one link per day on X, but I end up collecting way more interesting content than I can ever share. Over time, that creates a huge backlog of great articles, threads, and resources that I really like… but never actually get to tweet.
This monthly series is my way of rescuing those “lost in the backlog” links and finally giving them the spotlight they deserve.
Hope you enjoy the reads!
