Benchmarking Pulsar and Kafka: A More Accurate Perspective on Pulsar's Performance

Today, many companies are looking at real-time data streaming applications to develop new products and services. Organizations must first understand the advantages and differentiators of the different event streaming systems before they can select the technology best-suited to meet their business needs.

Benchmarks are one method organizations use to compare and measure the performance of different technologies. In order for these benchmarks to be meaningful, they must be done correctly and provide accurate information. Unfortunately, it is all too easy for benchmarks to fail to provide accurate insights due to any number of issues.
