I recently discovered #EffectiveKafka book. It is an in-depth, but yet full of practical use cases book with code samples.
If you loved the post "Why Kafka Is so Fast" by @IsTheArchitect, the same author won't disappoint you.

For over 3 decades, it was assumed that all solutions to distributed consensus were adversarial (i.e., Paxos-like). A new algorithm recently published in IEEE has shown that this is no longer the case.
