Overview of building low‑latency, stateful Kafka pipelines using Akka Streams with the Alpakka Kafka connector, showing a concrete consume‑transform‑produce pattern with a committable source and transactional sink that batches commits on a 100 ms commit interval. Covers handling consumer group rebalances via revoke/assign hooks, Kafka transactions (idempotent producer, atomic writes, read‑committed isolation) to achieve effective exactly‑once, and notes that transactions raise end‑to‑end latency when chained despite little throughput loss; connector is production‑used and Lightbend‑supported.
