For an infra composed of hundreds of very chatty microservices, most of which are interdependent, and where RMQ cannot handle the traffic, what do you recommend for handling eventing? We're using Kafka now, but curious for your thoughts.

We use Kafka too. For not so overwhelming loads and Ruby based services I would consider Eventide with PostgreSQL store.
