One question, Must we do the forever looping in the consumers? Other alternatives?

Hello, great video. I'm trying to find a strategy to resolve transactions of microservices communicated to each other by Kafka. Do you think that is possible? Thanks for your help.

The last piece of code wouldn't run under Python. I changed it to:
{code}
txt = "Consumed event from topic {topic}: key = {key:12} value = {value:12}"
print(txt.format(topic=msg.topic(), key=msg.key().decode('utf-8'),
{code}
