+Package sarama is a pure Go client library for dealing with Apache Kafka (versions 0.8 and later). It includes a high-level
+API for easily producing and consuming messages, and a low-level API for controlling bytes on the wire when the high-level
+API is insufficient. Usage examples for the high-level APIs are provided inline with their full documentation.
+
+To produce messages, use either the AsyncProducer or the SyncProducer. The AsyncProducer accepts messages on a channel
+and produces them asynchronously in the background as efficiently as possible; it is preferred in most cases.
+The SyncProducer provides a method which will block until Kafka acknowledges the message as produced. This can be
+useful but comes with two caveats: it will generally be less efficient, and the actual durability guarantees
+depend on the configured value of `Producer.RequiredAcks`. There are configurations where a message acknowledged by the
+SyncProducer can still sometimes be lost.
+
+To consume messages, use the Consumer. Note that Sarama's Consumer implementation does not currently support automatic
+consumer-group rebalancing and offset tracking. For Zookeeper-based tracking (Kafka 0.8.2 and earlier), the
+https://github.com/wvanbergen/kafka library builds on Sarama to add this support. For Kafka-based tracking (Kafka 0.9
+and later), the https://github.com/bsm/sarama-cluster library builds on Sarama to add this support.
+
+For lower-level needs, the Broker and Request/Response objects permit precise control over each connection
+and message sent on the wire; the Client provides higher-level metadata management that is shared between
+the producers and the consumer. The Request/Response objects and properties are mostly undocumented, as they line up
+exactly with the protocol fields documented by Kafka at
+https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/A+Guide+To+The+Kafka+Protocol
+
+Metrics are exposed through https://github.com/rcrowley/go-metrics library in a local registry.
+
