   GCP has recently introduced a PubSub variant that roughly operates like kafka, called PubSub Lite - wherein you have a topic, and you have a bunch of partitions, and you consume from the partitions with a given offset.
   
   https://cloud.google.com/pubsub/docs/choosing-pubsub-or-lite
   
   > Lite topics consist of partitions; a partition is a log of messages. Publishers assign each message to a partition, and the Pub/Sub Lite service appends each message to the log. The Pub/Sub Lite service delivers the messages from a partition in order.
   
   Given this very close model to Kafka, I'm thinking that a PubSub Lite indexing service would actually be fairly straightforward to implement. 
   
   Discord would like to fund these efforts, if anyone wants to take this on. Feel free to e-mail me jake@discord.com (or reply here if that's OK) if you're interested.
