Apache Kafka client for Python; high-level & low-level consumer/producer, with great performance
PyKafka is a cluster-aware Kafka>=0.8.2 client for Python. It includes Python implementations of Kafka producers and consumers, which are optionally backed by a C extension built on librdkafka, and runs under Python 2.7+, Python 3.4+, and PyPy.
PyKafka’s primary goal is to provide a similar level of abstraction to the JVM Kafka client using idioms familiar to Python programmers and exposing the most Pythonic API possible.
