Sorry for the noob question, but isn't the one of the point of caching is to support lower latency requests?

good question, I'm glad you asked it.

The problem in caching for real-time scenario is that the data becomes stale (invalid) soon.

Does that help?

This is quite confusing to me, they are using kafka and MQ server both. What was the need to use both or atleast this article is quite abstract and hiding things or lacking and throwing bunch of technologies and their basic general use cases instead of explaining how hotstar specifically used it for ex how they used spark to process.
