Node Red Distributed Flows with Kafka Why

This project was part of the required coursework for the "Middleware Technologies for Distributed Systems" course at Polimi. It was an invaluable occasion to learn Kafka and Node Red.

What

I built two custom nodes for Node Red to model distributed message producers and consumers. These two nodes allow distributed flows between two or more devices.

How

The nodes have been implemented in Javascript. The queues are handled through Kafka.
