<h1>Kestrel</h1>
<p>Kestrel is a simple, distributed message queue written on the JVM, based on
Blaine Cook's "starling".</p>
<p>Each server handles a set of reliable, ordered message queues, with no cross
communication, resulting in a cluster of k-ordered ("loosely ordered") queues.
Kestrel is fast, small, and reliable.</p>
<h2>Features</h2>
<ul>
<li>memcache protocol</li>
<li>journaled (durable) queues</li>
<li>fanout queues (one writer, many readers)</li>
<li>item expiration</li>
<li>transactional reads</li>
</ul>
