Apache Kafka retweeted
There is a new KIP-1244 proposing to deprecate the Kafka Streams Scala API, and remove it with the next major release. Please join the discussion on the dev mailing list if this concerns you.

Early holiday gift arrived! We are live with our new webpage! Same content. Modern look and modern backend. It’s a huge simplification for maintaining and contributing to the docs. Kudos and thanks to Harish Vishwanath for leading this effort, and David Arthur for shepherding!
