We have been running hundreds of services that effectively consume from various topics, perform mostly simple transformations and produce back to other topics. Providing this kind of functionality makes a lot of sense.

We are using TANK, and that functionality is not available there, but given the benefits such a feature provides, we will likely use RP as well in order to save on development time and number of distinct services we use for various events streams transformations.
