Rethinking Message Brokers on RDMA and NVM

Summary: RDMA- and NVM-based decoupled message broker architecture guarantees in-order delivery at high throughput. Shows potential gains over Kafka/Pulsar by leveraging RDMA bandwidth and byte-addressable storage to overcome network and disk bottlenecks. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
