How would you approach designing a distributed system to efficiently process streaming data in real-time, and what algorithms would you employ to ensure low latency and high throughput?

COVER // HOW WOULD YOU APPROACH DESIGNING A DISTRIBUTED SYSTEM TO EFFICIENTLY PROCESS STREAMING DATA IN REAL-TIME, AND WHAT ALGORITHMS WOULD YOU EMPLOY TO ENSURE LOW LATENCY AND HIGH THROUGHPUT?

I would start by implementing a streaming architecture using a message broker like Kafka to handle data ingestion. Algorithms such as efficient data partitioning and load balancing would be critical to ensure low latency while using techniques like windowing and aggregation for stream processing to maintain high throughput.
