 126 | ### Design Patterns
 127 | -- Design patterns are typical solutions to common problems in software design. Each pattern is like a blueprint that you can customize to solve a particular design problem in your code.
 128 | 
 129 | * **Creational patterns** provide object creation mechanisms that increase flexibility and reuse of existing code.
 130 |   * [Factory Method](https://refactoring.guru/design-patterns/factory-method)
 131 |   * [Abstract Factory Method](https://refactoring.guru/design-patterns/abstract-factory)
 132 |   * [Builder](https://refactoring.guru/design-patterns/builder)
 133 |   * [Prototype](https://refactoring.guru/design-patterns/prototype)
 134 |   * [Singleton](https://refactoring.guru/design-patterns/singleton)
 135 | 
 136 | * **Structural patterns** explain how to assemble objects and classes into larger structures, while keeping the structures flexible and efficient.
 137 |   * [Adapter](https://refactoring.guru/design-patterns/adapter)
 138 |   * [Bridge](https://refactoring.guru/design-patterns/bridge)

 142 |   * [Flyweight](https://refactoring.guru/design-patterns/flyweight)
 143 |   * [Proxy](https://refactoring.guru/design-patterns/proxy)
 144 | 
 145 | * **Behavioral patterns** take care of effective communication and the assignment of responsibilities between objects.
 146 |   * [Chain Of Responsibility](https://refactoring.guru/design-patterns/chain-of-responsibility)

1163 | ##### Difference between Apache Kafka and Redis
1164 | * Redis pub-sub is mostly like a fire and forget system where all the messages you produced will be delivered to all the consumers at once and the data is kept no where. You have limitation in memory with respect to redis. Also number of producers and consumers can affect the performance in Redis.
1165 | * Kafka on other hand is a high throughput, distributed log that can be used like a queue. Here any number of users can produce and consumers can consume at any time they want. It also provides persistence for the messages sent through the queue.
1166 | * One main difference is that Redis Pub/Sub is push based while Kafka Pub/Sub is pull based. That means messages published to Redis will be automatically delivered to subscribers instantly, while in Kafka Data/messages are never pushed out to consumers, the consumer will ask for messages when the consumer is ready to handle the message.    
1167 | **Use Redis**
1168 | * If you want fire and forget kind of system, where all the messages that you produce are delivered instantly to consumers.
1169 | * If speed is most concerned.
1170 | * If you can live up with data loss.
1171 | * If you don't want your system to hold the message that has been sent.
1172 | * Amount of data that is gonna be dealt is not huge.    
1173 | **Use kafka**
1174 | * If you want reliability.
1175 | * If you want your system to have a copy of messages that has been sent even after consumption.
1176 | * If you can't live up with data loss.
1177 | * If Speed is not a big concern.
1178 | * If data size is huge
