There are some folks in HP evaluating different messaging technologies for Marconi, such as RabbitMQ and Kafka. I'll ping them and maybe they can share some information.
On a related note, the Monitoring as a Service solution we are working on uses Kafka. This was just open-sourced at, https://github.com/hpcloud-mon, and will be moving over to StackForge starting next week. The architecture is at, https://github.com/hpcloud-mon/mon-arch. I haven't really looked at Marconi. If you are interested in throughput, low latency, durability, scale and fault-tolerance Kafka seems like a great choice. It has been also pointed out from various sources that possibly Kafka could be another oslo.messaging transport. Are you looking into that as that would be very interesting to me and something that is on my task list that I haven't gotten to yet.
