   I’m more and more convinced that staging environments are like mocks - at best a pale imitation of the genuine article and the worst form of confirmation bias.

   It’s still better than having nothing - but “works in staging” is only one step better than “works on my machine”.

   Articles by Eran Stiller:

   • RabbitMQ vs. Kafka – An Architect’s Dilemma (Part 1)
   • RabbitMQ vs. Kafka – An Architect’s Dilemma (Part 2)

   Article and StackOverflow response by Lovisa Johansson from CloudAMQP, seem slightly biased towards RabbitMQ:

   • SO: When to use RabbitMQ over Kafka?
   • When to use RabbitMQ or Apache Kafka

   Benchmarks by Confluent.io (Kafka creator and Cloud Provider), seem heavily biased towards Kafka:

   • Kafka vs. Pulsar vs. RabbitMQ: Performance, Architecture, and Features Compared
   • Benchmarking Apache Kafka, Apache Pulsar, and RabbitMQ: Which is the Fastest?
